YOGA POSES FOR PELVIC FLOOR STRETCHING
[SIZE=2

All in all, I feel that this approach will make our Edging and RK exercises much more effective, besides leading the muscles to a natural relaxed state. Furthermore, when you are not balanced, anything will cause you to kegel. For exemple, thrusting movements are enough to make you contract your BC muscle. This poses will make you more comfortable with all the physical movements by turning your muscle to be longer/relaxed. KEEP ON!

Hope it helps,
Good luck!

This thread was an excellent bump & I totally agree with OP that these stretching techniques definitely are a game changer when it comes to stamina and RK'S. I will absolutely be adding a few of these positions into my Hindi Squat routine. I like the butterfly pose with back straight to the floor.[/QUOTE]

Anyone suffering from pre-e can benefit from these stretches doing them in the morning and before they go to sleep. At least twice a day 3 times would be great . The problem is the effort and consistency to wake up earlier and right before you go to bed , your tired, so doing these exercises are a nuisance but there’s no better feeling then satisfying a woman in bed, so look at the end results people ! It’s all worth it !

Idk, seeing that i have a lot of things to write about , should I just use my Edging log or make a pelvic floor relaxation log which Includes stretches and hindi squats . I suffer from anterior pelvic Tilt which I learned about 3 weeks ago . I also play basketball semi professionally and my hips and lower back are my weakest points which shows why my pelvic floor is so tense . Being an athlete, I workout everyday and stretch but I’m gling to focus on these yoga poses and some others. I’m also starting a JP 90 routine and willl be consistent so hopefully with that and these stretches my pelvic floor can become balanced . What do you suggest, to have one log? Or multiple ?

Have you had any pro advice re strengthening / stretching lowerback /hips?

Have you had any pro advice re strengthening / stretching lowerback /hips?

They say just to stretch them and be patient over time the strength will come. I’ve talked to yoga instructors who are crazy flexible and they say to stretch 2-3. Times a day and it will take months before you see actual results. Also working out the core strengthens these muscles . I have a trainer that I work out with and a lot of the movements we do are very core related and attack the transverse plane which is heavily core related .

Core can mean a few things .
Is there significat glute work in this?

So core is considered everything from below your chest until your knees . So yes glute work is significant in this . My glutes are weak and I know because I jump very lazy . I can dunk a basketball but everyone who watches me jump says that I jump very lazy and it’s due to weak glútea and weak hips which is where you get your explosion from . My main area of focus is hips, glutes, and lower back . I can do Hindi squats but I have to stretch first and warm up otherwise I can’t go as low and it hurts when I just try to go into them from doing nothing but it hurts because I’m not stretched out and haven’t warmed up properly .

Yep a ton of different muscles in "core".

I am surprised if you are working on this that it is so slow to respond . How tight are your hip flexors?

[LaCasaDePapel]

Are you going to do all the poses? Or you find which are better for you?

I have been doing the cobra pose mentioned here lately for dealing with back issues and initialy doing them was getting strong pelvic floor spasms. As I have battled pre e I was never one that dealt with crazy spasms, yet I was getting them from these . They quickly stopped after a few sessions. From research it's a common pelvic floor rehab exercise as it stretches out the front of the pelvis and tight core. I obviously can see now it's connection to pelvic floor. This isn't to scare people off from to doing them, it's if anything to go try and incorporate them.

Yes muscles will often nark as they go from tense to relaxed . I am glad you kept at it and got those muscles mellowed.
