Cartwheels, one of the many building blocks in gymnastics!\nSplits are one of the best stretches you can do for cartwheels!\n\nHere are my tips on how to do cartwheels:\nStart in a lunge.\n(With whatever hand you write with or you prefer, but lets use the right hand) Reach forward with that arm, kick up with the opposite leg (which would be left in this case). Other hand should follow right after that, quickly, touching the ground, and then your right leg should come up too. You should be in a straddle handstand. Then, land the same way you came, your legs will be falling back into place, only on the opposite side of where you started. Probably sounds complicated but once you do the steps all together it won't seem like that and it moves very quickly. Think hand, hand, foot, foot. You can use tape on the ground to guide you.\n\nGood luck!

Don't try it, you're likely to get hurt worse. Call a cab or a car or shuttle service. They'll assist you with your bag to the car and then from the car to the curb at the airport. From there, a sky cap can collect your bag to check it. Carrying on doesn't make a lot of sense.\n\nYou can also call the airport for assistance including wheelchair assistance and they can assist you with your bags if you absolutely have to carry on. Much easier than trying to schelep a bag while on crutches...

Assemble the necessary equipment: a roll of 1- to 2-inch-wide athletic tape and a pair of scissors. (Image 1)  \n  \n2.   Wrap one piece of athletic tape under the heel of the foot and bring both ends up the ankle to either side of the leg. The tape should form a "U," like the stirrup on a horse's saddle. (Image 2)  \n  \n3.   Affix the tape to the skin just behind the knobby bone that juts out on either side of the ankle, pressing the tape firmly along the little groove behind the bone. (Image 3)  \n  \n4.   Wrap a second piece of tape around the base of the heel, bringing the ends of the tape along either side of the foot, heading for the toes. It should form a 90-degree angle with the first piece of tape. (Image 4)  \n  \n5.   Wrap a third piece of tape under the heel and up either side of the foot and ankle in the same manner as you wrapped the first piece of tape. Position the tape so that it runs adjacent to the first piece of tape - it should fall right over the knobby anklebone that juts out.  \n  \n6.   Wrap a fourth piece of tape around the heel, running just above and adjacent to the second piece of tape, with the ends again heading for the toes along both sides of the foot. You now have the basic structure for the "basket weave" - overlapping pieces of tape that wrap around the heel, extend to the toe, wrap under the heel and climb up to the ankle. (Image 5)  \n  \n7.   Apply about eight more pieces of tape in this manner - four adjacent strips of tape that wrap around the heel pointing toward the toes, and four adjacent strips that wrap under the heel and head up the ankle. Alternating between strips that run along the foot and strips that run up the ankle will give you a weave that limits mobility and supports the entire ankle. (Image 6) \n\n\nSee images by following the link:

Stretch everyday of course. When you go into the splits try to focus on sitting up straight or even bending back to try to touch your back leg. Scorpions are all in split flexability and back flexability, so do back bend (or bridges) whatever you call them too. If your problem is just that you cant pull it close enough to your head try slipping a band around your ankle and pulling it to your head that way. \n\nMost importantly though, just make sure you aren't forcing it. I know you say you need to have it soon, but its not worth injuring yourself over it since there are many other cool lib variations you can try. Change it to stretches, or maybe even scales. It may not come over night, but if you keep working hard and stretching, eventually your scorp will come.

Blue-tack and crampons are just not going to work. What you need are magnets - big giant ones that can grip onto the iron in the rocks. Or, a great big glue stick.\nAlso, as your goat is 14 I would recommend installing a chair lift into the mountains that he climbs the most frequently, in order to minimise the onset of arthritis ...

Calves:\n-Put you foot against a pole or door frame and pull yourself torwards it. \n- Put your feet about 2-3 feet away from eachother( one infront of  an other) and push on a wall keeping both feet on the ground. You may have to bring more distance between your feet to feel a stretch. \n- Get into a push up position and take one foot and rest it on the foot that is alreadly on the ground and stretch untill you feel a pull\n-Lie on your back and have a partner take one leg( make sure you keep it streight) and pull it to you, pressing down on the toe and pulling up on the heel. Keep the othe leg on the ground. This is an uncomfortable stretch. It should only be uncomforatble pain, not searing pain. Stop if it is  really hurting. This one needs to be used only after an activity (running, swimming) when the muscles are warmed up.  \n\nHamstrings:\n- Stand and pull on leg behind you so that your foot is around your hip and pull your knee back untill you feel a stretch.\n- You can to the same on the ground, lieing down on you back (if you find it difficoult to keep your ballance)

do a lot of stretching before trying them..the more you can stretch your leg muscle the easier it will be..then from a standing position slowly lower yourself towards the floor..stop when it starts to hurt the inner thy or you get a sprain (they hurt bad)..stand up stretch out and try again..you will eventually be able to go down further and further....

I have very bad knees, I've already had surgery on one of them for degenerating cartilage. I'm only 20. Before the surgery, I tried physical therapy. In there I found some good stretches, but the most important thing was the discovery that I can use the stationary bike with minimal or no pain. If you decide to do this, keep it at a lower resistance. If it hurts, reduce the resistance. I usually bike on level 2 or so, although bikes differ.

You can use them in one of 2 ways (A) fold the end of your BDU's just above you ankle in a small crease and place the strap on to hold you folds closed until you get your combat boots on.\n\n(B)  You put you boots on the fold the bottom of you trousers up to form a small "cuff" you then put you boot band on your boot just below the top of your boot and fold the cuff over the band to make a "blouse"

Practice the position on the floor before you try it on the ice. Push your hip foreward on the leg that you are standing on. Open the other hip and pull your leg up. Make sure that you are not dropping either of your shoulders. Good luck!
