I'm a black belt, but I can't go all the way down...close, but not quite. :)

..I can't even touch my toes. For some reason, though, I can almost do the splits, there's maybe a half-foot gap.

The poll is all over place. And it depends on which 'splits' you're talking about.

 

ie.

 

Front - leg in front of you and leg behind you.

 

Side - legs to the side of you.

 

I know some people have those switched though. Assuming you mean side splits I get about a foot - foot and a half (haven't been stretching much lately).

 

... but I CAN touch my toes. :lol: :wink:

I was assuming we're talking about the splits with one leg in front of the other (that I can do). The Van Damme splits are still to work for me. I have 2-3 inches to go to full extension. And now I can touch my toes, though I couldn't at first. :D

Hi, I can do the split where one foot poit towards the sky and the oyher point on the ground so that's half splits, I can easily touch my toe, but still I need more work on my kata.

Full splits in all three directions.

i can do complete splits and straddles all the way to the floor, when seated with legs out wide i can lean forward and touch my forehead and when standing straight legged i can bend down and touch my palms and still bend my elbows....i am pretty flexible for a guy that was told 4 yrs ago that i would be paralysed and bed ridden for the rest of my life....

Wow, Chen, thats incredible! Glad to hear you're NOT paralysed and bed-ridden...

 

I can almost do full side splits - I'm about an inch away now! I have more problems with front splits, I don't seem to be very 'bendy' doing those.
