I am looking for a way to bring about total flexibility in my legs. I would like to be able to do full spilts (both directions) within 6-9 months. I am a cyclist which tends to leave me with large tight legs, limiting my range of movement. I am frustrated as I have been consistently stretching my legs and have not gotten much gain. any advice without stretcher gear, or assisting partners(of which I generaly have access to neither) would be greatly appreciated.

Anyplace where we can learn more about this technique? My stretch is really poor. I really try hard. It took me 20 years to get my head to my knee. I still can't split or straddle. (Before anyone blasts me, I had a lot of corrective surgery as a kid. I'm doing better than anyone ever expected, thanks to MA.) I know most of my posts are pretty tongue in cheek, but I love MA and I really do train hard despite all the stupid stuff I say. I'd jump an anything that would help my stretch. Thanks.
