Check
yourself before doing kegel
exercises.
Place
your finger in your vagina and squeeze around it, when you feel
pressure around your finger you have located the correct muscle.
Kegel
exercises serve to tone and strengthen the pubococcygeus or "PC"
muscles which form the floor of the pelvis. The health of these
muscles plays a vitally important role in sexual arousal and climax,
as well as in other aspects of bodily functions. Now that you
have located your PC muscles, you can begin kegel exercises while
your bladder is completely empty.
First,
try squeezing your PC muscles whils doing your basic kegel exercises
as hard as you can for a count of three seconds. Then let them
relax. To begin with kegel exercises, see how many times you can
do this before the muscles feel tired.
Now
figure out a suitable routine just as you would if you were trying
to tone and strengthen a different muscle group by going to the
gym every other day. For example, suppose you start by being able
to do only five strong squeezes: try doing three sets of five
once or twice a day for a week, and then try increasing your kegel
exercises to three sets of eight strong squeezes.
