Anatomy and biomechanics
Training of the pelvic floor musculature through voluntary contractions (Kegel): improves tone, vascularization, and control of the area, with effects on orgasmic intensity, continence, and postpartum or post-surgical recovery. It can be done in any posture; the key is to isolate the correct muscle without tensing the abdomen or glutes.
Why this position works
It is the most profitable investment in pleasure: a few minutes a day that translate into more intense orgasms, greater control, and better intimate health. It doesn't require any equipment or for anyone to know, it works for all bodies, and it prevents future problems. Pleasure and health in the same gesture.
Pelvic Floor and Kegel: the muscle of pleasure
There is a muscle that almost no one trains and that changes everything: the pelvic floor. Caring for it with Kegel exercises improves pleasure, control, and intimate health, in any body and at any age. Here we explain how, step by step.
Also known as: kegel · pelvic floor · intimate exercises · hypopressives · pelvic control
