Benefits of Kegel Exercises for Men:

Tags

 

Kegel exercises for men are simple, targeted movements that strengthen the pelvic floor muscles—the muscles that support the bladder, bowel, and sexual function. Though often associated with women, Kegels are incredibly beneficial for men’s urinary, prostate, and sexual health.


🧠 What Are They?

Kegels involve contracting and relaxing the muscles you use to stop the flow of urine or hold in gas.


💪 Benefits of Kegel Exercises for Men:

  • Improve bladder control

  • Help prevent urinary leakage (especially after prostate surgery)

  • Support recovery from prostate issues or surgery

  • Enhance sexual function, including stronger erections and better ejaculation control

  • Strengthen the core and pelvic region


How to Do Kegels:

  1. Identify the Right Muscles

    • Try to stop urinating midstream—those are your pelvic floor muscles.

    • Don’t make a habit of stopping urination regularly, just use it to locate the muscles.

  2. Engage the Muscles

    • Tighten those muscles and hold for 3–5 seconds

    • Relax for 3–5 seconds

  3. Repeat

    • Do 10–15 reps, 3 times per day

  4. Important Tips

    • Don’t hold your breath

    • Avoid tightening your abs, thighs, or glutes

    • Stay consistent—results often show in a few weeks
