What Is Kegel Exercise

Women put a lot of time, energy, and sometimes money into staying physically fit. And it's no secret why. The health benefits of regular exercise are too many to count. But here's something you probably don't know: no matter how many hours you spend in the gym, you'll never experience the life-altering results of strong pelvic muscles unless you add Kegels to your routine. Decades of data show that pelvic fitness can help reduce bladder control problems and postpartum vaginal laxity, and may diminish, delay, or even prevent pelvic organ prolapse-all good reasons to start kegeling. But the truth is the biggest benefits of strong kegel muscles- and the real reason so many women are instantly hooked - show up in the bedroom. A woman's Kegel muscles play a huge part in her orgasmic response. If you have a weak pelvis, you may have a hard time having an orgasm, or, at the very least, you will not have the powerful, intense orgasms that you could be having. For the skeptics out there, there is research to prove the effects of kegel exercise on female arousal, but what have you got to lose? You can kegel any time, anywhere and no one will ever know you're doing it. To find out how, check out other videos in this series.
