Stop Doing Kegels (seriously)

I found this article enlightening!

Wow. Now I know why I should be doing all that stretching I've been skipping. Thanks for sharing!

Interesting article. I might have missed it, but how long do we stay down in the squat for it to be effective? I think I read three times a day, right?

Great article..thanks for posting! Now I have one more reason to keep up my glute exercises (squats and all). The first reason I found out was for the sake of my knees (muscle imbalance causing them to turn in too much and causing chondromalacia) and now for the sake of my pelvic floor. Hmm, maybe someday I can actually do jumping jacks again!

Interesting read. I'd love to hear more opinions. I can see how the squats could be effective, but for me the article didn't have enough info to justify abandoning kegels entirely (but I could be missing something).

Very interesting. Good news for me since my pelvic floor could definitely use some strengthening, but I could never make myself do kegels. (I can't do jumping jacks without a little pee escaping; however, I can usually do a light jog with no issues.) I'm excited about adding some deep squats to my daily routine!

Thank you very much. I don't have trouble with this particular issue yet, but I want to make sure it stays that way. I'll also be adding some deep squats throughout my day whenever possible.

I would like to see and maybe order her other DVDs as well. I was able to requested through interlibrary loan 5 of her DVDs that relate to issues I would like to deal with .
