What is a one-sentence summary of the following article?
If you rush into the splits, you may hurt yourself. You must stretch before you do the splits even if you have done the splits a hundred times. Stretching your muscles will help you to ease into the splits more carefully. Do each stretch a few times repeatedly, so to increase flexibility in those stretches. If you want to follow a specific program, try physiotherapist Lisa Howell's flexibility program called The Front Splits Fast.
Stretch before you do the splits. Do a 10 to 20 minute warm-up, stretching each of your muscles.
