Pelvic and Kegel exercises

Pelvic floor support is an important part of men’s health after 50. Kegel exercises and pelvic floor exercises help strengthen the muscles that support the pelvic organs, improving control and comfort in everyday life.

Regularly performing these exercises helps maintain mobility, reduce discomfort, and maintain self-confidence. Even a few minutes each day can provide noticeable results and improve overall well-being.

By combining pelvic floor exercises with a balanced diet and natural body support options, men can effectively maintain activity, energy, and joint health for many years to come.


How to do Kegel exercises and pelvic floor exercises

  • Find the right muscles

The first step is to figure out which muscles you need to train. Try briefly stopping your urine stream when you go to the bathroom. The muscles that help you do this are your pelvic floor muscles. It’s important to remember that this is a muscle exercise, not a bladder exercise, so you don’t need to do it every time you urinate.

  • Initial contraction

Squeeze your pelvic floor muscles and hold for 3–5 seconds, then slowly relax them for the same amount of time. Feel the muscles rise and fall. Calm and controlled execution is more important than speed or force.

  • Repetitions

Perform 10–15 repetitions in one set. Do 2–3 sets a day at different times, such as in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Regularity helps the muscles gradually strengthen and maintain a stable tone.

  • Progression

As you feel your muscles getting stronger, gradually increase the contraction time to 8–10 seconds and the number of repetitions. You can add new exercise variations — for example, alternating contractions at different speeds or in different positions — to better develop muscle control.

  • Breathing and correct posture

Breathe calmly and evenly while performing the exercises. Do not hold your breath, this helps to avoid tension in other muscles. The exercises can be performed while sitting in a chair, standing or lying on your back. For variety, change positions to involve different groups of pelvic floor muscles.

  • Regularity and patience

The most important factor is constant practice. Performing the exercises daily provides noticeable results after a few weeks. Do not expect an instant effect: gradual muscle strengthening helps to maintain comfort, control and confidence in everyday life.

Tips for joint health

As we age, joints require special attention, as they are the ones that provide mobility and comfort in everyday life. Regular joint support helps to maintain activity, reduce discomfort and improve quality of life after 50. It is important to combine light physical exercises that promote flexibility and strengthen the muscles around the joints, with proper nutrition and natural supplements that support their work. Daily activity, weight control and sufficient water consumption help keep cartilage elastic and strong. Equally important are regular rest and healthy sleep - they allow the body to recover and maintain optimal joint condition. By combining these simple recommendations, men 50+ can maintain mobility, energy and self-confidence, enjoying an active life without restrictions.
