kegels

[Big Al]

I have been told by a few experienced pumpers that I should not do kegels while in the tube...can someone give me a good answer why?
I would have thought that this would increase/circulate blood flow.

If you're having an extreme pump a kegel might cause bruising.

Ok, sorry, I missed what BC flexes are?

A BC flex is where you make as if you're expelling urine. It's usually known as a "reverse kegel".

Kegels may help a bit in that department. The next time that you urinate, make an effort to piss as hard as you can. That's essentially how you do a BC flex (with a dry bladder, of course :smile: ).

You probably don't need to add that to your routine just yet. When you hit week 4 or so, try adding a few reps and see how your workouts go from there.

I actually just finished week 4 of my routine haha, i just did a quick 20 bc flexes after my kegels last night, everything went fine, should i try to hold them like in kegels?
