Find out how to properly perform a kegel exercise in this video.
I’m going to give you all the info you need to know to make sure you are getting a good workout in your pelvic floor and strengthening it after you have had baby (or even before). Most moms know what a Kegel is from reading pregnancy books and/or attending childbirth classes… but here’s a refresher just in case your lack of sleep and mommy brain has erased all your previous knowledge. A Kegel is simply the contraction of the pelvic floor muscles.
Usually women are taught to find these muscles by stopping the stream of urine while you are going to the bathroom. While this is a good way for you to find the muscles you should be using to perform Kegels, these muscles used to stop the flow of urine are not the only muscles you need to know about to properly perform Kegels. There are actually ‘front’ and ‘back’ Kegels.
