How to Improve Your Over Splits Safely
Can you already do the splits, but now you want to go further? You can get scared of injury when it comes to over splits, but if you do it step by step, and safely, you'll get it soon or later. This article will give you some tips to improve your over splits safely.
Steps

Get a spot. Get your gymnastics or cheerleading coach, or someone with perfect over splits to spot you. They can help you to learn the over splits in a safer way.

Have your spot help you to get your head to touch your knees in splits. However, don't go too far.

Get a thin block. Ask your spot to put the block under your heel, as you perform the splits.

Get another thin block. Ask your spot to put the block under your heel, as you perform the splits.

Get a panel mat, or a thick pillow. Ask your spot to lift your leg, onto the panel mat when your doing the splits.

Get another panel mat or thick pillow. Ask your spot to lift your leg, onto the stack of mats, when your doing the splits.

Use your coach, or if you're in the gym, another mat, to put your leg on this time.

Get a chair. Place your leg on the chair, and slide into the splits. Still have a spot watching.

Attempt to balance. Now that you are advanced at this, get a spot, and make sure your legs, and knees are balanced and in a line. Lift your back leg and touch it to the back of your head.

Perform a ring leap. It's step 9 into a leap, and it is a great skill.

What's your reaction?
