Confusion with Reverse Kegels

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

Thanks for feedback as usual imac. I tried it with meditative method, and didn't feel this now. Maybe last time I was doing it too strong and overdoing it as well, who knows. Meditative method is an "easier" approach for your Pelvic area, I think. Just did it yesterday for the first time, and a coule of breaths ins, less than 30 I believe. I had sex yesterday and had an awsome experience, and maybe this had something to do with it, since I told you my front part was which I felt tensed whenever I got aroused. Already posted in the meditative thread, along with other things I've been doing.

That's great, thanks for letting me know.

Yes, was only doing rk's

It is possible to send pelvic balance too much in the rk direction.

When I try I to do a front reverse kegel, It feels like the area above my penis is expanding. It does feel like I'm pushing out and down like you said in your first post, but I don't feel anything around the base of my penis. Am I doing the front reverse kegel correctly?

You're doing them right. If you press a couple fingers in at the base you'd feel the muscle all nicely loose and relaxed.

Thank you for your response this makes me feel much better knowing I am doing them correctly.

I have another question also. I plan to start a kegel routine tomorrow. I know I have an unbalanced pelvic floor. I currently only do regular kegels while jelqing. Should I stop doing this until my pelvic floor becomes more balanced?

You're welcome.

If you're doing a reverse kegel only routine then I don't see a problem if you're just doing some kegels while you're jelqing.

There's different schools of thought on this depending on who you ask. For me I always recommend now for guys with Pre e and who have pelvic tension to take care of the tension first before strengthening any weakness in the pelvic floor. That's the same approach Physios who specialise in the pelvic floor take when dealing with patients with pelvic tension. So I tend to recommend reverse kegels only as well as pelvic stretches and only add kegel once tension is gone and your muscles have achieved a normal resting tone.

Very good info on the different types of reverse kegels, breathing and stretching.

I have read all the posts posted on this thread so far. Still some things to clarify.. I have decided to exercise RK for few weeks before going on RK/K routine, because during the edging session I feel that I am kegelling.

The serach for correct reverse kegel:
Flaccid:
I try to run my piss out, and I feel that muscle between my testicles and asshole is going down, I feel my asshole opening a little, and urine ready to go if I would push even more, my abs are tight, I am able to breath, but because my abs are tense, breathing is a lot harder.

Erect (during edging or just erect):
I took a look at my penis and I sow that the head was getting bigger, and penis pushed out a very little, other feelings were the same like I have described above.

Questions:
1. What should I feel at the base of the penis while I am doing RK and my dick is being flaccid at that moment? Should I feel nothing or some kind of tension/flex/softness?
2. I assume I am doing mixed reverse kegel, how to separate front and back reverse kegels?
3. Does it mean that my front kegel is weaker (isn't able to stretch that much) as back reverse kegel, because I can't feel anything at the base of the penis while I am doing RK while flaccid?
4. What can you say about that kind of routine: 4sets of 12-13reps of RK, which I am doing at the moment, but holding the stretch for 5-10seconds and resting for the same time I am holding? If I am able to hold RK for more, egz. 15-25secs, should I go for it ?
5. Is that one routine enough for a beginning? What else should I do?

It's alright to use your abs to assist the stretch just don't strain them and don't hold your breath and if you feel like you're going to urinate then you're puching too hard.

Questions:
1. What should I feel at the base of the penis while I am doing RK and my dick is being flaccid at that moment? Should I feel nothing or some kind of tension/flex/softness?
You should feel your muscles loosen and relax. It's subtle, so if you're not sure use your fingers to feel around the base and the muscles should be relaxed and loose. Kegel then reverse kegel to feel the difference.

2. I assume I am doing mixed reverse kegel, how to separate front and back reverse kegels?
The best way it to practice two point reverse kegels which I describe in the OP.

3. Does it mean that my front kegel is weaker (isn't able to stretch that much) as back reverse kegel, because I can't feel anything at the base of the penis while I am doing RK while flaccid?
No. The muscles at the front are smaller than the muscles at the back and that's why you feel less movement, and that is what leads beginners to question if their doing them right because they can't fell them as much.

4. What can you say about that kind of routine: 4sets of 12-13reps of RK, which I am doing at the moment, but holding the stretch for 5-10seconds and resting for the same time I am holding? If I am able to hold RK for more, egz. 15-25secs, should I go for it ?
That routine is fine. Work within your ability, if you can hold it longer then hold it longer. But mix it up, do 1 set at 5sec the next at 10sec and so on and so. You can even throw in some quick RK's.

5. Is that one routine enough for a beginning? What else should I do?
That's enough to begin with.

Imac Thanks so much for all your work and help.

I'm new to Reverse kegals, I'm practicing now with the front reverse kegal where you imagine pushing out from the base of the penis. I start to feel the muscle! but it feels incredibly weak. Is this normal? I think I must be seriously imbalanced.


So by doing these exercises are you actually making these little muscles bigger or stronger over time?

I'll keep referring to the OP as I do them. Thanks again.

That's normal for beginners. Have a read of the answers to questions 1 and 3 in the post before yours to get a better idea of what to feel.

No.
By doing kegels you create strength and tone in the muscles.

By doing reverse kegels you create flexibility in the muscles to achieve a more comfortable muscle tone resulting in improved muscle control.

Here's the feeling I get when I THINK I'm doing a front reverse kegel - before actually putting them into routine I want to check I'm doing it right! opefully this makes sense.

With a couple of fingers on the area UNDER my penis (basically the area where I'd have a vagina if I was a girl), I do a normal kegel (in which I'm very good at) and feel a strong movement. I assume this is my BC muscle...

So, with my fingers in the same place, I attempt what I think is the reverse. It kind of feelings like swelling, and as though veins down there go loose and an expanding, almost feeling of pressure, starts. Is this loose feeling muscle loosening? Kind of feels gross, like a few strands of spaghetti loosening up or expanding?

Sorry to be graphic! Or is all of the above actually in my ball sack and I'm doing something totally different?

Thanks in advance! Any help much appreciated.
