Kegel exercises can be performed once in the morning and once at night. Its really quite simple - all you do is contract your anus muscles as if trying to hold in gas. It should feel like a pulling, contracting or lifting feeling in the anus. Each exercise session should be about 10-30 individual contractions and relaxation exercises. Each exercise should be 10 seconds, five seconds of contraction and five seconds of relaxation.


WOMENS KEGEL EXERCISES


Women's Kegel exercises are performed much the same. Firstly they should make sure their bladder is empty then sit or lie down on the ground. Just like men's kegels, they tighten the pelvic floor muscles by pretending to hold in gas. Counting to 5 seconds holding the muscle tension and then 5 seconds releasing and relaxing the muscle.
