I haven't stretched in months (except for the last two days) and you sort of make me wish I hadn't quit.

I haven't been stretching nearly enough lately.
If stretching in the past couple of days means you're picking it back up, awesome and good luck!

Awh thank you
I'm finally starting to get back into getting my head between my feet during my back bends again! (today was a good day)

Great job!
boy I wish I still had splits like that... must start stretching more... >.>
Do you do dancing or gymnastics or something?

Thanks!
These were almost exactly a year after I first got my splits down, I think. I've probably lost about an inch recently because I've just been so busy I haven't had enough time to stretch.
It started with yoga, and I take a dance class at school. I'm going to pick up gymnastics this summer, which should be a lot of fun!

21 inches?!?!?!? I can only do, like, 8.... Keep up the good work!

I was very surprised myself 
Eight is great! How long have you been stretching?

Exactly one year and eight days - I started as a New Years resolution after I saw Varekai in London, and I'm going to see Quidam in three days, I'm soooooo excited!!!!! How long have you been stretching?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, you got to see Varekai live?! WANT. WANT. I've seen Quidam (about two years ago) and Saltimbanco (October 12) live, but Varekai is my favorite show!
Quidam in three days?! AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....
I've been stretching for about a year and a half, since about the end of summer last year. Gone from barely being able to touch my toes, too!

I can't wait, I might see Olga Pikhienko! But wow Saltimbanco!I'm so jealous...
I STILL can't touch my toes.

I think that La Promise is played by Irina Naumenko now 
But if you can do eight inch oversplits, can't you touch your toes?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nope, it really bugs me.

That's really annoying! Maybe do a bunch of hamstring stretches as part of your splits warmup?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's a good idea. Thanks! Also, to improve back flexibility, i find that if you have a hot bath or tie a hotwater bottle to your back about ten minutes before warmup, then you can bend easier. Just an idea.

Oh, I've never thought of that! I usually start with some exercises that warm my back up, but yeah, hot water or something would really help! Thank you!

I'd love to train my body to do that kicking thing [link] Like the girls in this video. I you hate Manson mute it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I can kind of do it, but it's hard and I can't do more than one in a row. You have to keep your back completely straight, toes pointed, and not fall over backwards
So teach yourself!

Ouch. Don't kick yourself in the head though.
Maybe... Humm.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I've actually kicked myself in the head. It doesn't hurt, the rest of your body kind of gets in the way
It's not hard! Go for it!

Oww... That doesn't look comfortable at all.
*shudders*

I've actually almost gotten people to scream when they turn around in school at lunch or something and I'm sitting in splits or another stretch. It's fun
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Uh, well, good for you. I can see why that would be... a bit of a shock to others.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
... Yeah, my hobby is weird.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, I wouldn't say it's weird.
At least... there are weirder hobbies out there.

Yeah ^^
But you're still always be more awesome!

Write poetry very well? More like think of words that rhyme with random words that are mostly useless. Like buffaloed. And defenestrated. Man, defenestrated is a cool word ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You've never seen my attempts at poetry. This is a good thing, as those... things... should never see the light of day.
Perpendicular is a fun word, though I don't know why.

But they're fun! ^^
