How to tell if your pelvic floor is imbalanced?

[Bend Sinister Member Find all posts View Profile Close Bend Sinister]

I currently have a feeling my pelvic floor might be imbalanced. I keep getting this strange twinge in my perineum that comes and goes everyday and first appeared after months of doing only kegel exercises (no reverse kegels). But this made me wonder: how do you actually tell if you have a pelvic floor imbalance? And how do you judge how imbalanced it is?

If you just do the RKs and stretching excersizes that balance the pelvic floor then you will be fine. Stop the involuntary kegels.

Deep flat-footed unweighted squats, yoga poses (Dog/Cat), abdominal stretches, @ thr people GYM will help you sense RK's and balance your PF.

So I shouldn't have any involuntary kegels once my pelvic floor is balanced?

Just a quick question here, when you do deep flat-footed squats, do you repeatedly move up and down or do you just hold the squat for 5 minutes or so? What's your exact method for doing them?

If pelvic floor is your target then pause at the bottom is recommended. 3- 6 secs.
