I'm not sure this is possible if you're not already very flexible and close.

Do some cardio or yoga to get your muscles warm, then get into a position that stretches them.

If you have a bit to go you may have to do it for hours per day, don't do it too hard or you'll tear something.

Generally look up yoga, they have some great stretches.

I cannot guarantee you'll get a perfect front split in 2 weeks, it depends on how flexible you already are. However, in my ballet class we use the laying stretch, inverted stretch and plenty of barre exercises to gain flexion in our hips/legs. Here are two stretches that might help. Just remember to be careful!!!

Laying Stretch -- Lay straight down on split with both legs straight and both shoulders down. Keep toes pointed! Hold, then move upper body only to inside of split. Don't rotate hips out! Perform this exercise on both legs.

Inverted Stretch -- Execute split, then bend front leg ninety degrees. Gently lay down with shoulders square. Point back foot and keep back leg straight. This position, if held, should stretch out your hip and enable you to sit in your split longer.

Good luck!
