The folks at Cystex made this catchy video to remind us all to kegel!
The Mayo Clinic explains the science and technique of kegeling:
Kegel exercises strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, which support the uterus, bladder, small intestine and rectum. You can do Kegel exercises, also known as pelvic floor muscle training, discreetly just about anytime.
Read more about kegels and their importance on the Mayo Clinic report here.
So come on everyone, get with the program: squeeze and hold!
Squeezing helps the sneezing! (And lots of others stuff too.)
GIVEAWAY: Spice up your fall wardrobe! You can win an I’m Kegeling. Are you? t-shirt. For a chance to win, simply enter a comment by October 30 saying you’d like to be the winner.
Don’t want to sport a kegel t-shirt yourself? This makes a GREAT gift for a girlfriend birthday party! LOL!

You can kegel away– but when all else fails, find a good urologist. There’s no reason to endure discomfort, leaking, etc.

Ha! I’m at the meeting of the North American Menopause Society. My family would disown me if I posted some of the slides they showed yesterday. And none of the docs even groaned. I guess they’re used to it.

Great video as a reminder that I can Kegel anywhere. I’d love to have the t-shirt. Krystal would be mortified. 🙂 But, it also sends a great message to all those women out there that forget to exercise. Once I tried to do jumping jacks with my students and after that, I always had a spare set of clothes at school.

Ha! I can’t help it, but this tune just got stuck in my brain… (go ahead, I dare ya… you can hear it can’t ya… “Sailing”… my apologizes to Christopher Cross.)
“Kegeling… takes me away
To where I’ve always heard it could be,
Just a dream and the wind to carry me,
And soon I will be free.”
Thank you, Barbara! This was a well needed reminder. And, yes, the t-shirt would be awesome to win! 😉
