Pelvic Floor Balance

My suggestion is for now to follow her advice and don't do anything that she doesn't tell you.

However you should include some stretching exercises. Watch this video and try to do those stretches that focus on the pelvic floor once a day (I do them in the morning). When doing the deep squat stretch breathe in deeply so that your lower abs and pelvic floor (most importantly the area between your testacles and your anus) inflates, but don't do it forcibly.

This is very important, do not forcibly inflate your lower abs and pelvic floor but do it gently but fully. The author of the video often refers to this as "breathe into your balls". This is essentially what I find to be the most natural form of a reverse kegel that includes expansion rather than relaxation.

So rather than just doing reverse kegels do the stretching exercises in the video that are about pelvic floor. That way they will not interfere much in what your physiotherapist what plaining.

So for now don't worry about ratios and don't do anything outside what your physiotherapist says, but do the stretches.

At first there is no need or stretches to last longer than a minute, later on you can rise them on two or three minutes.

Also what are Power Kegels exactly?

Thanks Minuteman

Something I should point out is that the physio said that the muscles were not weak in the sense that they had been damaged or anything like that but simply that I haven't learned how to control the muscle on demand (or lost the ability from infrequent use). Either way, is it likely that my EQ would increase once I've relearned how to control the muscles?

Power Kegel/Root Lock
In this kegel exercises for men, you clench the muscles as strong as you can then release. This is used to increase the muscle strength.

You should also check this list, since the list you refer to has been made from the past version.

When doing power kegels be careful not to go to far since clenching your muscles as strong as you can, can create you more problems. Especially do not perform power kegels when erect since with the unconditioned pelvic floor you can potentially damage the muscle. So while you should clench strong do not clench the strongest you can at least not until you strengthen your muscle more.

Hi guys I'm new to this forum and this is my first post so bear with me! I'm 18yo and have suffered from weak erections for about 2 years. I also have a hard time maintaining an erection during sex, although my erection usually gets just about hard enough to have intercourse. (But no where near as hard as it should/I would like it to be) I think my pelvic floor might be the issue but I am not sure whether my PC muscles are too tense or too weak. My EQ is not very high with my erection having a very slight downward curve and my glans doesn't get very hard either. Furthermore, the blood vessel that runs along the bottom of the shaft does not protrude noticeably when I'm erect.

I have found that if I apply pressure to the muscles located between the anus and scrotum (during masturbation), my erection, as well as glans, becomes harder than without the pressure applied. Does this suggest too much tension or weakness? And also, what would be the best treatment?

Thank you so much!

Start with deep squats .
What is the medical advice.

Thanks for that advice! So too strong a clench even when not erect can damage the muscle?

Hello guys i think that i have unbalanced pelvic floor because of this reasons:
is harder to retain hard erection without kegeling
its more difficult to fart
sometimes i have strong urge to do kegels

also i have to tell you guys that i ve been doing just basic kegels for long time and not reverse kegels os maybe is that THE problem...what should I do ??

When consciously turning IKs into kegels, is this done immediately after the IK or during the IK (if that's even possible)?

As an update, my PT said that my pevic strength continues to improve and to also focus on really relaxing the pelvis in between kegels as it is tense. She gave it a good stretch from the inside

How long have you been training for?


What do you mean by holding your cum? Are you referring to dry orgasm?

I'm confused if my pelvic floor is weak or tight. Can anyone help?

Symptoms:

• Premature ejaculation
• weak ejaculation
• Poor EQ
• Loss of libido
• Uncontrollable involuntary kegels/spasms
• Hard flaccid

I'm confused because the poor EQ/libido, weak ejaculation suggests weak pelvic floor, but the PE and involuntary spasms/kegels suggest tight pelvic floor.

Weak pf doesn't mean it isn't tight, and strong one doesn't mean it isn't either. Do some regular and reverse kegels and see how strong and how prominently you feel them also how long you fan hold them and how they affect your breathing.

Do some deep squat stretches and tell us how it feels.

Thanks guys.

They both feel strong (kegel feels stronger than rk, but this could just be due to the nature of the exercise) and I can hold them both for longer than 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, my muscles start to flutter while kegeling and I lose the rk after 5 seconds unless I hold my breath and push hard.

In regards to squat stretching: I feel a strong stretch in my glutes and abductors, and it is easier to relax the pf in this position.

Squats are good to have in the routine of guys who are both tense and weak.

I have reduced some of the IK and spasms but I still get them. My EQ has reduced (not to something extreme, but I'm completly hard only when I'm playing near PONR). Also morning wood is not strong as it has been some time ago. Some incotinence too.

What I'm afraid of is if adding normal kegels, would make me go back to the tension level that I was before.

Is it possible to have a rock EQ and dont feel tension on the pelvic floor?

I expanded this thoughts on my last post of my log, feel free to check it to understand my actual status!
