54s
THE WHAT:
A simple context for increasing intensity in the ‘middle-splits’ hold. Other than a weight held in the hand, all supporting information regarding the ‘What’ of middle-splits follows the same as for the bodyweight ‘Middle-splits’ context, found in the resource ‘Basic '("Northern") Horse-stance' & 'Splits' forms’. Namely, it is worth considering if and how far development of the ‘middle-splits’ form is applicable to you and your practice/s.
