Pelvic floor exercises, otherwise known as Kegel muscles, have been known to Eastern culture, specifically Taoist philosophy, for centuries. In the West, they are known as the Male Deer Exercise, which freely translates to “male deer exercise.”
This animal is considered a symbol of vitality and fertility. You’re probably wondering if simple Kegel exercises really work? Oh yes, they are very effective. My partner discovered this, and I gladly benefit from it 🙂. Results are obtained as long as the exercise is practiced regularly, preferably every day.
Where are the pelvic floor or Kegel muscles?
Kegel muscles are a popular term for pelvic floor muscles, used interchangeably. Their function is to protect and maintain the correct position of the smaller pelvic organs, such as the bladder, uterus, and rectum. They are found in both men and women.
The Kegel muscles line the pelvic floor and consist of three layers, one on top of the other. The outermost layer is the anal sphincter, the middle one is the transverse perineal muscle, and the inner (strongest) layer is formed by the levator ani.
While a picture speaks a thousand words, it’s worth knowing that each of us has Kegel muscles, or pelvic floor muscles, whose efficiency is an essential component of intimate life.

Repeat this process 3 to 5 times, focusing on your breath and bringing a touch of peace to your core. This breathing method aims to relieve tension and stress, pause, improve mood, and bring harmony and balance to your body.
Once you are relaxed, or not 🙂, focus on a specific movement. Even if the exercise seems simple, remember to execute it precisely. Try to concentrate on the pelvic floor muscles and consciously guide each movement.
Remember that consistency is the key to success. Exercise regularly, preferably daily, to keep the pelvic floor muscles in good condition.

Part I Abdominal massage
When you find a comfortable place and have taken 3-5 deep breaths and feel even minimal peace, you can proceed to perform the exercise.
Sit comfortably on a chair or, if you prefer, cross-legged on the floor. You can also lie on your back.
If you’re using a chair, make sure to sit on its edge, allowing the genitals to hang freely from it. Place your left hand on the lower abdomen and hold the genitals with the other, covering them with the inside of your right hand.
Holding your jewels in one hand, begin massaging the abdomen in circular motions clockwise 81 times with the other. Adjust the pressure to your sensitivity. The massage aims to relax your muscles and prepare your muscles for further work.
After this step, switch hands and continue the massage counter-clockwise, holding the genitals with the other hand.
This is the first massage part of the exercise. Once you’ve done this, move on to the clenching and releasing of the Kegel muscles.
Part II Pelvic floor muscle work
Tighten the muscles around the anus and pull them inwards. The tension should be similar to when you try to stop the flow of urine while passing it. Hold the muscles tight for as long as you feel comfortable. Then relax and tense them again. Repeat these steps until you feel discomfort.
During this step, you might feel the flow of energy, which may manifest as tingling. It flows from your pelvis up to your head. Do not force the flow with your imagination. Just be and feel. Allow the free flow.
This is one of many versions of this exercise. When done regularly, it offers many benefits in terms of men’s sexual, physical, and mental health. It can be an excellent form of self-care. Just a few minutes a day can give yourself a precious gift. The condition of the pelvic floor muscles significantly affects well-being and life energy levels, which can significantly improve quality.
