Rebounding(trampoline, NOT bouncing from man to man.) also helps. When I first started I would jump with my kids & would experience incontenance. The more I jumped the less, & less leakage, until it completely stopped. I'm definitely going to incorporate these exercises too.
sahtification Those studies are on HIGH impact trampolining gymnasts, gentle rebounding while activating your pelvic floor correctly is an entirely different beast. If you bounce a bit with your kids on the trampoline bracing your pelvic core and strengthening it of course it’s going to work over time
Thank-you! I love Julien's work to death, but I *need* this level of detail in the explanations for the openers as I learn them on my own. Even done inexpertly they are helping and you've just explained several key points I hadn't yet discovered in my own work. Thank-you again.
There are a few suggestions for treating incontinence naturally : Try Kegel exercises- which involve flexing the same muscles you use to stop the urinary flow. Try losing weight if you are overweight excess belly fat puts pressure on the bladder and the pelvic muscles. Shedding a few pounds if you are overweight can help restore your bladder control. Try to train your bladder - put off going to bathroom. Try to delay urinating by 10 minutes and build up to 20 minutes etc
EXCELLENT!! I'll be adding these to my workouts. I love how you are explaining the movements in detail. It's like you are my very own PT. Thanks heaps Sara :)
Just now getting around to watching this. Thanks so much! I need to invest in a heavier kettle bell, I'll definitely be adding these into my daily workout routine .
love the level of detail you go into. Keep it up, you make me laugh with your corny jokes and keep me striving for more in my workouts. I look forward to your videos xx
This is a great video! I have so many clients with the same issue. Your explanations are great. I'm going to practice these so I can coach my clients. Thank you!
So useful and always on point with demonstrations. Love! Love your videos and amazing content. I've followed you from day one... you're literally one of my very first follows on RU-vid. So happy to see how you've grown with information and the "Why" that you use to keep yourself motivated. It's super motivating to all of us. Thank you again. 🤗
How long does it take for these to work and how often should I do these? I feel like each time I do these the problem gets worse. Am I doing something wrong?
So I am assuming there is some kind of progression to get to this point. Starting postpartum with DRA I know some women can successfully close gap with only external obliques and still have weak TA. So I would assume first to quiet the EO and target the TA more and work on sychronization then later when progressing core exercises and only when pulling in TA correctly then we can start loading the EO for further advancement at higher level like you did to improve your deadlift and advance performance goals?
Hmmm, I wonder if this will help with incontinence while coughing and laughing too? I've had a problem with that since I had some kidney stones passing a few years ago. Kegel exercises does not help even though I know I do them the right way and I do them profusely.
I've been doing the first external oblique exercise everyday this week with focus to understand what is going on all around my torso & back. I certainly can not do it with the legs raised yet and I am still not sure I am doing theT spine one correctly. One thing when I do the external oblique exercise I experience is a sharp stretching pain on my left side in what I believe is my traps. I feel tightness from the left of my thoracic spine that goes all the way to my neck. I am figuring out I must have particularly weak external obliques and highly dominant traps on my left side. My left arm is also the arm I literally can not straighten up over head. Looking forward to exploring this whole thing further. My question is, what role would my left pec be playing in all this? Ia guessing it is also weak...so do I focus on strenghtening my left pec or stretching it? Or both?
if you can't straighten the arm overhead, it's highly likely that your left pec, teres major, lat, external oblique on that side need extra attention. This means thinking about keeping these muscles engaged throughout the range that you do have. I know you watch my videos on youtube and instagram... so pay extra attention to the exercises I'm doing to strengthen my pecs, lats, & teres majors through the range I have.
