How to Train the Pelvic Floor

Many people hardly think about their pelvic floor—until they realize it’s weakened. Women, in particular, often only become aware of its importance during pregnancy or after childbirth, recognizing how crucial strong pelvic floor muscles are for overall health. It’s not easy to consciously feel or train these muscles. The pelvic floor spans the area between the pelvis, pubic bone, and sitting bones, working quietly in the background. It supports an upright posture, bears the weight of internal organs, and controls the bladder and rectum—all without conscious effort. But there’s more: a well-trained pelvic floor is also the key to more intense and fulfilling sexual experiences. It’s worth giving this often-overlooked muscle group the attention it deserves by training it specifically—for greater control, improved health, and enhanced pleasure.
