Day 22
[lesson id=’OtJDq86G’]
Flexibility to gain. Today you’ll be training muscles for the front splits. Remember to warm up fully and never train cold as training cold muscles can cause injury and reduce the effectiveness of the stretches.
Start today by warming up with the Lower body routine. Once you feel nice and warm use the Side splits routine.
Woooooo hoooooooo – I finally touched the foam roller with my thigh! Progress indeed 😊 thank you Veena!
Sorry I missed this comment 💜 Yay, go you!!
I am very excited!! My front splits are noticeably better than the last time I did this routine!!
That’s so great to hear!!!
So I pretty much stopped stretching at the end of November last year and lost all of my splits progress. I wasn’t doing this program at the time.
After today I am officially 5cm (2 inches) lower on both sides!! Back to my pre-November level. I’m still like 12cm (5-ish inches) above the ground right now, but I’m so happy to have regained my progress 🙂 It took me like a year to achieve, and I was so bummed to have lost it in just three months.
That’s great news!!!!!@ 🎉🎉🎉
Is it just me or do hip flexors take waaay longer than hamstrings to loosen up? My splits progress has stalled and it seems to be my hip flexors that are the problem.
It really depends on the person.
Thanks! I think I am seeing progress but I’m doing the stretches wrong. Re-watched the videos and looks like I’m not positioned correctly in lunge or deep lunge so I’m feeling the stretch, just not in my hip flexors (more in my quads and lower back).

Got lower with the front splits. This program is definitely helping! 🙂â¤ï¸
Wonderful!
