    I can, i can touch the floor with palms flat... can also do the splits without having to think about it, but i am "hyper flexible" apparently - according to my physiotherapist :S .

    I've always been able to put my palms flat on the floor with knees straight. Even when nearly 300lbs. Kinda freaks my guy out. The doctor nearly fell off his stool the first time he saw me do it.

    I just did it with a bit of effort. I somehow managed to hurt a rib doing it!:laugh: :sad:

    I can put my palms on the floor when bent over.

    But then, I have what my physiotherapist calls 'loose joints'.

    I've never been able to. I always blamed my short torso, but I have tight hamstrings, too. I'm working on them.

    I did find out this week that my (adult) niece, who is and always has been very athletic, can't touch hers, either. Maybe it's a genetic thing.

    I posted the above at the beginning of February.

    I can touch my toes now! :drinker:

    Congratulations! I'm still two inches from them, but I haven't been doing my Pilates at all. Way too stressed.

    I can touch my toes. I used to be able to put my hands flat on the floor. Now not so much.

    I have NEVER in my entire life been able to touch my toes without bending my knees a lot. :(
