The Pillow Stretch: easy, fast and effective.

[Minuteman]

Minuteman and iMac: I am experimenting with other yoga poses, rather than those we already shared here. I found that one in special affects the root of our training very much (which would be PC and BC muscles).

At least I feel it. Please try it: Bharadvajasana - Tonic for the Spine and Belly - YouTube Do you feel anything on the same muscles that move when you kegel and reverse kegel?

My knees are sensitive and since I can't do full lotus due to the not so flexible hip joints (if I said that correctly) i put too much stain on the knees (imporper way to do exercises such as this) so I avoid trying out exercises like this because i can injure my knees.

I mainly felt this in my lower back and abs, also my thighs. I didn't feel much in my pelvic floor.

Maybe there are some connections between pelvic floor and hip or back muscles. I am quite not flexible.

Great info. Thank you all for sharing.

Yeah, this is definitely a great stretch for -something-. I'm an extreme case, as you were looking for, and it definitely helped me isolate some kind of muscle that is used with my penis and ejaculation. I think.
Yesterday, I did two 5 minute segments, then a ~15 minute one. Used 2 pillows, only one folded. Considering using more next time, since today I wasn't terribly sore nor did I feel any of the side-effects of having a kegel muscle that was *too* stretched.

Laying down, it seemed to be vertically underneathe my pelvis bone. I thought that the muscles activated by kegels and RKs were supposed to be more around the taint/perinium area? Hence the 'floor' thing. These muscles weren't activated throughout my stretch to my knowledge. But if this isn't the case, fantastic!

Looking forward to more updates and more responses.

Try doing it everyday. If you notice anything on your lasting time when Edging, tell us!

i did them last night after my workout, not sure if my pc muscles were sore but it was definitely stretching something down there. I kind of lowered my legs and back close to the bed sort of pushing my groin area upward with the pillows, it was above the rest of my body and i held that for 10 minutes or so and it gave me a good stretch, im actually fairly sore in that region today

That's exactly how it should work. Your pelvic bone/penis is the highest part of your body and your feel somekind of stretch, giving you noticeable soreness that lasts for more than 15h.

What about todays edging?

Any news, JoshLuvins?
