Beyond Kegels

Mar. 3rd 2010

Have you heard of the word Kegels before? Kegels are the name of an exercise designed by Dr. Arnold Kegel in the 1940’s. His concept for a squeeze and hold technique to strengthen the pelvic muscles, allowed those muscles to be isolated and worked out as a unit. When the concept was invented, many women tried, many of them unsuccessfully, to put Dr. Kegel”s idea into action.

So, lets be honest. The concept of a few kegels being able to singlehandedly reduce incontinence and bladder issues, or improve an individual’s sex life, sounds great. However, in reality, many woman became confused about where exactly the pelvic floor was, and how they could actually isolate these muscles by practicing kegels. Like most exercises, if done incorrectly, you do not reap any of the exercises health benefits.

If you want to restore tone to your pelvic floor muscles, you need to begin a regime of pelvic floor exercises. Sexhercise™, a revolutionary pelvic floor exercise program, is based on Pilates exercise. Pilates is an exercise form that specifically trains you to perform each exercise correctly in order to receive the rewards that come with it.

Sexhercise™ is designed for your body. Any woman can benefit from this program, and it can be easily modifiable to your level of physical activity. Not only will it improve bladder and bowel control and help cut down on instances of incontinence, but it can also strengthen your abdominal muscles, support your core, and add some added zing to your sex life!

While Kegels were once the only way that a woman could take control of her pelvic health, with Sexhercise™ and its new pelvic floor exercises, you are able to multitask and target all of these areas at once. So make these pelvic floor exercises a part of your day. Say goodbye to Kegels, and hello to its newer, sexier counterpart, Sexhercise, Feminine Fitness from Within™.

You’ve probably heard of Kegels, specific contracting and releasing exercises you can do to work out your pelvic muscles. However there is a really unique program called Sexhercise that not only uses Pilates to strengthen your pelvic muscles in a fun way, but does so while increasing your overall strength and physical activity.

Having strong and functional pelvic muscles is about more than just an active sexual life. Your pelvic muscles support all of the female reproductive organs, control the bowels and bladder, and help prevent incontinence. That should be reason enough to do some pelvic floor exercise!
