Confusion with Reverse Kegels

[PhillyHolly Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close PhillyHolly]

Hey I've read these threads and other regarding Reverse Kegels.

you guys' posts are really helpful.

I have a question though.

Is it possible to hold Reverse Kegel like Kegels?

because I found it impossible to do reverse kegels using only the bc and pc muscle.

I need help from abs to push out the bc and pc muscle.

So I've been practicing deep breathing with Reverse Kegel, but that makes hold impossible.

The Main Post of this Thread says Reverse Kegel Hold, so I was wondering how others were doing.

Yes, with time and practice as you condition yourself you'll be able to hold reverse kegels while continuing to breath.

I had my master list copied in the same way. He didn't even bother to change the names of the exercises.

Yeah I think I remember reading that in your progress thread? The thing is, it wouldn't of bothered me if they'd had the common courtesy to ask to reproduce it and provide a link back to this site. But for them to just copy and paste it and then pass it off as there work is just Low.

When I have finished my reverse kegels for that day, my neck seems to feel strained. Is that a sign of over exertion?

[imac Retired Moderator Member of the Month Nov 12PEGym Hero Find all posts View Profile Close imac]

Are you holding your breath while doing them? Or are you unconsciously straining your neck while doing them?

I'm not holding my breath, but I am using my abs to help me and then my neck feels fuzzy like more blood is going through it.

It just sounds like you're straining too hard. Try easing up a bit.

Ok. I did my reverse kegels today and they went better because I was breathing through my nose. I find myself pushing more when breathing through my mouth

I have the same. Ive noticed that breathing through nose is a shalow breath, on the other hand breath through mouth is a deep breath. (Wow thats bad english. Ill correct it later.) During deep breath you tense your diaphragram .

I've been told to do these else where on the forums.

There seems to be some conflicting info here and im not quite able to do them as stated in this thread. When I go do to the fart motion, and i put my fingers at the space between my butt and my balls, i can feel that expanding.

Is this a reverse kegel? Because if it is, I can't seem to be able to do it without holding my breath. Also my abs tense a bit and I have to push quite hard to feel it expand outwards.

What you're describing is a back reverse kegel, You might find it hard to begin with but you can do them while breathing, it just takes practice. In the meantime instead of doing them while continuing to breath, Do a reverse kegel on your IN breath and then relax on your OUT breath.

Don't worry about your abs as long as you're NOT straining yourself.

You can also do a front reverse kegel which is described in the OP.

You might also find this exercise of interest. https://www.pegym.com/forums/prematu...se-kegels.html
