Kegels now, giggles later.

Picture this: You're at a fabulous brunch with your squad. One friend is recounting a particularly disastrous date and just as she lands the punchline, you let out a laugh-snort combination that, while hilariously charming, also results in an accidental sprinkle. The cute waiter notices and you suddenly wish your mimosa could double as a drowning pool. Fear not, expecting glamour goddess! Pelvic wiggles and giggles meet their most epic foe: Kegels.

Before you dismiss Kegel exercises as your mother’s boring secret (honestly, who else has heard their mom lament about the cough-sneeze-“Oops!” debacle?), let me enlighten you with tales and tips to unleash the powerful, pelvic liberator within you. It's like The Avengers, but for your pelvic floor. Shall we dive in?

First, Let's Play Detective

Much like trying to find your phone after it's slipped into the black hole known as your handbag, tracing the pelvic floor muscles can be a bit of a search mission. Here’s a handy-dandy guide: next time you’re in the loo, mid-pee, try to stop the flow. Eureka! Those are your pelvic floor muscles. And yes, it’s perfectly okay to secretly chuckle if you just imagined a teeny Tarky superhero stopping a leak like a pro.

Pro Tip: Don't make a habit of the mid-pee Kegel — this is just a party trick for identifying the muscles. Doing it regularly could confuse things down there and hey, no one likes a baffled bladder.

>The 5 Best Times To Kegel, Because Why Not?

1. In line at the grocery store: You've only read the tabloid headlines a million times. Time to do something productive.
2. Sitting in traffic: If you're going to curse the red light, you might as well spice things up by pumping those muscles.
3. Welcoming the dawn with an opera singer's yawn: Pretend you're preparing for a standing ovation. Kegel to your heart's content.
4. Watching Netflix (again): Think of it as multitasking. Edward might sparkle, but you'll shine down there.
5. Brunch with the gals: Because you never know when that ‘laugh until you pee’ story will strike again.

But When Should You Not Feel Like a Kegel Queen?

1. Walking up the stairs: Risks of a Chuck Norris gait abound.
2. During an intense gym workout: Attempting both bicep curls and pelvic whirls could lead to a *confusing* huff and puff.
3. When holding a sneeze: Choose your battles wisely; a simultaneous sneeze and squeeze might sound like a drama of sorts.
4. Mid tickle session: Already challenging the bladder gods by nature of the activity.
5. While hugging your knees:

The Art of the Kegel

No fancy memberships or exclusive mantras needed here! Simply relax, contract, and hold for a short beat – think the time it takes to blink at a shocking Instagram post. Then, relax and repeat. Work up to holding for 10 seconds and doing three sets of 10 a day, or just whenever the mood strikes. Be prepared for your pelvic floor to go from Zumba outcast to Dancing Queen.

Hot Take: When you Kegel, make sure you’re not inadvertently practicing the “clenched claw” face. A relaxed expression encourages a relaxed state elsewhere. RBF is just a mask; your pelvic floor, not so much.
