What are Kegels? How do you do Kegels?
So I've done a little reading but I'm not quite sure what a kegel is and how you do one. If could also tell me how they are suppose to make you tighter that'd be great :) thanks!

Kegel exercises are pelvic-floor muscle exercises. I believe the basic one is to first identify the right muscles. You're essentially after the ones you tense and relax when you have a pee. Try flexing them a bit. Now, imagine an elevator (stay with me, I'm serious!). Tense the muscle up slowly over a count of ten, as if you're making the elevator 'go up'. You should see exactly what I'm saying when you try it. Hold it tight at the 'top' as it were for a few seconds. Now slowly relax the muscle over a count of ten, as if you're making the elevator 'go down'. Repeat the whole thing several times, then stop. Doing it a couple of times a day is fine. Over time it improves muscle-control and condition. Which makes you tighter. When you have sex all these muscles come to the party, and they can also get a bit stretched when a woman gives birth. Some women find that sex doesn't feel as good for them or the partner following birth and use Kegels to get everything nice and tight again. Of course, it's not only for that. You can't do yourself any harm with Kegel exercises at any time. Think of it in the same way as any workout/fitness programme if you like. It shouldn't be the sort that makes you work-up a sweat though, it's a GENTLE exercise! And repeating it over time is the only way it works, doing it once won't make anything instantly tighter. Hope you find my reply of some use.
