Working on splits - getting warm quickly

[wambam]

I am continuing to work on my splits for hoop. I am stretching after workouts when I'm really warm and that's going well. I'd like to stretch at home when I have time, but it's not comfortable unless I'm really warm. Any tips for getting warm quickly that don't require a full-blown shower-necessary workout?

Have you tried dynamic stretching? Leg kicks, toe touches, high knees, etc.

I do this before every workout and I feel SUPER dumb for not thinking about it before split stretching.

Thank you.
