Kegel Exercises: Optimal Sitting Position

Establishing the Correct Sitting Position Using a Chair

To maximize the effectiveness of Kegel exercises, it's essential to adopt the correct sitting posture. Opt for a chair that facilitates a seating arrangement where the hips are either level with or slightly higher than the knees. Ensure you are sitting forward, away from the chair's backrest, to engage the appropriate muscle groups effectively.

Technique and Correct Form for Kegel Exercises

Identifying Key Pelvic Floor Muscles

To effectively target the male pelvic floor muscles during Kegel exercises, it is crucial to familiarize yourself with the sensation and location of the sitting bones. Focus particularly on the areas at the base of the penis and behind the testes for targeted strength and endurance exercises.

Executing Kegels with Precision

The ideal technique for performing Kegel exercises for men involves a deliberate tightening of the pelvic floor muscles, akin to halting the flow of urine while simultaneously attempting to "shorten" the penis. For beginners, mastering this technique is imperative to ensure optimal training outcomes for the pelvic floor. Achieving and maintaining the correct form takes precedence over all other aspects of these exercises for novices.

Two Primary Categories of Kegel Exercises for Men

1. Long Endurance Exercises
These exercises entail sustained contractions of the pelvic floor muscles, crucial for combating erectile dysfunction and enhancing bladder control. Proper technique includes maintaining normal breathing patterns, relaxing the buttocks and abdomen, and fully relaxing the pelvic floor muscles post-contraction.

2. Short Power Kegel Exercises
Power Kegels consist of brief, intense contractions lasting approximately one second each, designed to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. Maintaining correct form, including a complete relaxation of the pelvic floor muscles after each contraction, is critical.

Progression and Frequency of Kegel Exercises

Foundational Workouts for Beginners

Initial workouts should prioritize mastering the correct form of Kegel exercises over the intensity of the exercises. Begin with long Kegel exercises that involve holding pelvic floor muscle contractions for up to 10 seconds. Start with gentle endurance Kegels, and as confidence in your technique grows, gradually increase both the intensity and duration of the exercises. Over time, progress to more challenging exercises, including standing Kegel exercises, and aim to complete a total of six sessions daily, incorporating both long endurance and short power Kegels.

Seeking Professional Physical Therapy Guidance
For additional assistance with Kegel exercises, men are encouraged to consult with health professionals specializing in pelvic floor physical therapy. Pelvic floor physiotherapists provide targeted training and therapeutic interventions to enhance the effectiveness of your Kegel exercise workouts.

I agree with some of the other comments that laying down on my back is the easiest position to perform kegels and get visual feedback. However, during the day doing kegels while driving or seated at work provides privacy and time is saved by performing kegels in parallel with other daily tasks. I wish you could create a narration for the daily exercises (can just loop over and over a few spoken lines)-your voice is gentle and firm, provides right balance of encouragement and demanding.

Michelle, at the gym should we completely avoid compound lifts and only use isolated exercises to avoid worsening hemorrhoids and rectal prolapse?

Olá Michelle Kenway tudo bem? É normal esse tipo de exercicio causar aumento na libido? Pergunto porque sempre quando faço os exercicios fico um pouco excitado.

[lesliejameskellaway]

Michelle, what do you recommend to help a Rotators cuff

[jettmanas]

I've been a beginner for well over a month. No idea if I'm doing them right, how hold over 1 second & how to breathe normally due to the difficulty.
Maybe my nerve damage or neurogenic bladder (if I have that) affects it. Wish I had a doctor.
Well-made vid, though.

[alancatlett]
