| High impact exercise could cause problems to a woman’s pelvic floor. If the pelvic floor is damaged or weak, the consequences can be embarrassing, uncomfortable, or even serious. Weak muscle at the pelvic floor can lead to urinary incontinence when you cough, sneeze or jump, plus reduced sexual pleasure or even vaginal prolapse when the womb drops into the vagina because the pelvic floor muscles fail to hold it in place. While childbirth is the main cause of damage, prolonged high impact exercise can also weaken. High impact exercise involve jarring movements such as high-impact aerobics, jogging, trampolining or gymnastics, can put sudden excessive pressure on the pelvic floor. The best way to treat pelvic floor problems or bladder weakness is to exercise these muscles. Do eight sets of Pelvic Floor Workout at least three times a day for three months to get results. | Pelvic Floor Workout Slow contractions Tighten the muscles around your vagina and back passage, as if trying to stop passing water and wind. Hold for 10 seconds, then relax for 10 and repeat until you tire. Fast contractions Squeeze and release the pelvic floor more quickly, holding for one second then relaxing for two seconds between each squeeze. If there is any weakness such as urinary incontinence (leaking urine slightly), take immediate action. The faster is the action taken, the better will be the treatment. |
