Yoga Stretches for Splits

Yoga Stretch Workout to do the Splits

Stretching is an essential part of any workout routine. Studies have shown that stretching helps increase flexibility and improve athletic performance, while decreasing the risk of activity-based injuries. It also helps separate and lengthen your muscles, giving your body that super-slim, toned appearance.

The ultimate test of flexibility is the splits of course! But don't start panicking just yet. With a few daily yoga stretches you can improve your flexibility to the point of making the splits nice and slow.

Try these yoga stretches after your regular cardio or strength workout (aim to do them five times a week). You'll see improvement to your flexibility in as little as two weeks and gains in both your strength and endurance in less than one month.
