Re: Kegal Help asap LOL .sorry if this is tmi
I don't find it funny at all. Imo, it's just like working out any other muscle in the body. It's just in a very odd place lol.
Anyway, I do them 2 ways. The easiest way I can explain to do them is imagine they are your ab muscles. I tighten them (kegals lol, not abs) and count to 5 and release. It's actually hard for me to hold any longer then that. I do this several times.
Another way to do them is imagine you are looking at a 4 story building. On the first floor your relaxed and normal. One the 2nd you tighten only slightly, the 3rd story slightly more, and the 4th your holding as tight as you can. Mentally, allow yourself to release floor by floor and the same going up.
I know this sounds SO weird but this how my prenatal yoga video says to do it lol.
Just a suggestion...pee first lol.

The exercise itself is not funny..It's necessary and I need help.
Thanks so much for the tips!!! Very helpful for me to get a routine. Makes perfect sense!! Thanks again. And I will pee first. LOL

How do you know you are doing kegels right?
Everytime I've tried them I feel like I'm contracting my bum. Is that correct?

Yes. It should be your vag area and your extreme lower butt.
