My take on PE. and how i cured it

[Anklepain]

Yeah, although i got no scientific proof. My personal experience is screaming "YESSSSS!!". Training the core and TVA will have an impact on your stamina, just whatever you do, do not forget to properly RK afterwards. My suggestion is to STOP all kegel work if you're doing any as well.

What is the difference between core muscle and TVA? I had trouble to understand wich muscles are including in core muscle even had google and youtube it.

The core describes many muscles that influence the midsection, abs, obliques, tva, the various muscles around the back etc.

TVA is a specific muscle, which is part of the core.

Anklepain has a point depending on who you talk to the core can take in a good % of the muscles in the body

Congratulations and thanks for sharing your amazing success story.

I watched a well known indian yogi's video in which one breathing technique was to take a deep breath and then push the pelvic floor with ABS like a hammer. The yogi was doing it like a machine.

I tried that and started hitting the pelvic floor using my ABS like a hammer. I did 500 of these daily for a couple of weeks or so.
Then I tried sex, and to my surprise I was able suppress the ejaculation reflex by pushing my ABS hard onto pelvic floor. For a minute or so, I had to repeat it after each thrust. Then kept on repeating after every few thrusts. This is how I lasted around 20 minutes for the first time in my life. The only limitation is you get tired pushing your ABS hard. So gym is the way to go!

Hello Sameel, I am very interested in this technique, could you share the link of the video or the name of the exercise to be able to search it. Thank you

Hi @andrewvi7, first of all I wanted to thank you for sharing your experiences.


I am new here starting to work on my PE.


Reading and learning in the forum I realized how tense my pelvic floor was for years so I immediately started a routine of stretching and RK. I'm slowly starting to see changes noticing that my RK's are getting better but still my pelvic floor automatically gets tense if I don't pay attention, so I keep working on my routine to release my PF.


Something that happens to me and I don't know if it's normal is that when I'm standing, besides my pelvic floor, my glutes are also tense, has this happened to you? When my pelvic floor is tense I can relax it by doing and maintaining a gentle RK, but I don't know how to relax my glutes so I have started to stretch them several times throughout the day.


Because of this I had to modify my APT routine and stop strengthening my glutes for a while. What do you think about that? Will I be able to solve my APT problem stretching the quads and back and strengthening my abs but not my glutes?

Does doing APT exercises tighten your pelvic floor? Many of the exercises are strengthening the core which tenses the pelvic floor. At what point should the exercises be stopped and focus on PF relaxation?

Part of the reason the pelvic florr and pelvic region has tension in it is muscle imbalance . That is modern life causes some muscles to be weaker than they should be , this is commonly the posterior chain which includes glutes . A personal trainer can give you some ideas on this .

Despite a lifetime of training age and injuries has given me issues that are aided by input from training advice from personal trainers and physio.

I don't see any relation here. A stiff core creates tightness in PF, while a powerful core reduces the load on PF in daily life which results in more relaxed PF.
In any case powerful activated flexible glutes are the most important factor in improvement of any postural issues. Look it up in any article, webpage etc.

I strongly agree with you. There's a lot that I don't agree with on this thread especially op's perspective. I don't have APT but the thread was still interesting to read. I'm mostly going to stick with your advice, minuteman's, ammonite's, ByggD's, and spanky's.
