Your pelvic floor has the potential to weaken if it isn’t properly looked after. The pelvic floor muscles help support your uterus, bladder, and bowel. They contract and relax in order to allow urine and feces to be released from your body. The risk of a prolapse and other complications such as incontinence and even severe pain is not something to take lightly. However, with the following simple exercises performed at home in conjunction with regular check-ups by a medical professional, you can ensure that your pelvic floor remains strong and healthy well into your later years.
Kegels help by relaxing and contracting your muscles to strengthen the pelvic floor.
Squats help by strengthening your glutes, hamstrings, and quadriceps, which in turn support your pelvic muscles.
One of the best ways to exercise your core and support your pelvic floor is with the dead bug.
