I did the splits as a child, no problem. In fact, I was able to do it as a young adult. The problem came when I had to have a day job and couldn't keep up the flexibility. So I think to do it, you would have to do splits a few times everyday. Our bodies like to go against it as we get older and like the fight with the law of gravity we just have to keep on keepin' on.
