  13. Didn’t train today and I won’t bore you with excuses.

    Got like 63g of protein though so that’s nice. My new protein power just came in the mail and this one doesn’t seem like it bloats me as much as the other one so I’ll be more consistent with it.

  17. Day 9

    I only did 7 rounds today, so 175 reps which isa little over half what is usually planned. I had a headache which is unusual for me- I don’t normally get them.

    I guess you could say I got lazy with my training. It’s hard to want to keep going with a challenge that is supposed to show big results after a week but instead I went backwards.

    I started out training as usual today but then by about the 6th set, I did something different. I realized that the right posterior section of my pelvic floor was not engaging as much as the left so I began to focus my mind muscle connection on that area specifically while also contracting the rest of my pelvic floor too.

    What happened was very very interesting. The perceived exertion of the exercises increased and I began sweating as if I was really working out- despite just laying in bed doing Kegels.

    Maybe I haven’t gotten good results because I simply haven’t been training hard enough or haven’t established a solid mind muscle connection and coordination for all areas of my pelvic floor simultaneously. If that were the case, that would explain why my strength was going down- imagine trying to do an exercise for glutes like true hip thrust but only the left glute is engaging for some reason but you expect yourself to be able to do the amount of training meant to be handled by both left and right glutes together. Not only would the right side not get any stronger if it wasn’t activating during the workout, the left side would likely get weaker because it’s being overworked by training volume meant to be tackled by both sides together.

    I mean I know how to do Kegels properly and my Perifit (a biofeedback device) lets me know that I do. My contraction quality on Perifit, which is a measure of proper Kegel technique, is always 100%- perfect technique. But the device has limitations- namely that it doesn’t distinguish between the different areas of the pelvic floor.

    It’s incredible to think that perhaps this whole time, half of my pelvic floor muscles simply weren’t “turning on” all the way.

    And speaking of “turning on,” this change in mind-muscle connection during my training that allowed me to start engaging the right side of my pelvic floor more also made me feel more turned on during the exercises.

    Protein: about 35g (had some left over taken out today so I don’t have an accurate count)

    Now that I know I need to be more mindful of activating my right pelvic floor, I just need to be more mindful of getting a decent amount of calories & protein consistently.

    Maybe I haven’t gotten good results because I simply haven’t been training hard enough or haven’t established a solid mind muscle connection and coordination for all areas of my pelvic floor simultaneously. If that were the case, that would explain why my strength was going down- imagine trying to do an exercise for glutes like true hip thrust but only the left glute is engaging for some reason but you expect yourself to be able to do the amount of training meant to be handled by both left and right glutes together. Not only would the right side not get any stronger if it wasn’t activating during the workout, the left side would likely get weaker because it’s being overworked by training volume meant to be tackled by both sides together.

    I mean I know how to do Kegels properly and my Perifit (a biofeedback device) lets me know that I do. My contraction quality on Perifit, which is a measure of proper Kegel technique, is always 100%- perfect technique. But the device has limitations- namely that it doesn’t distinguish between the different areas of the pelvic floor.

    It’s incredible to think that perhaps this whole time, half of my pelvic floor muscles simply weren’t “turning on” all the way.

    And speaking of “turning on,” this change in mind-muscle connection during my training that allowed me to start engaging the right side of my pelvic floor more also made me feel more turned on during the exercises.

    Protein: about 35g (had some left over taken out today so I don’t have an accurate count)

    Now that I know I need to be more mindful of activating my right pelvic floor, I just need to be more mindful of getting a decent amount of calories & protein consistently.

  19. Day 9

    I only did 7 rounds today, so 175 reps which isa little over half what is usually planned. I had a headache which is unusual for me- I don’t normally get them.

    I guess you could say I got lazy with my training. It’s hard to want to keep going with a challenge that is supposed to show big results after a week but instead I went backwards.

    I started out training as usual today but then by about the 6th set, I did something different.

  21. Day 8

    So it’s officially the start of the second week of the challenge. I suppose I should have measured my strength with my Perifit today just to see what a difference 7 days can make. I’ll do that tomorrow.

    I did the full 300 all in one go this evening- without talking on the phone this time. I think that does help me push myself in the workout.

    Protein: probably about 55-65g? I ate out today so I don’t have an exact count like normal. My Cronometer says 40.1g and the meal I ate out did have a good source of protein.

    I did the 300 contractions. I’m still on level 3.

    I didn’t wait until too late to start. I started at around 8pm and finished at around 9:40. However, I was incredibly sleepy while doing them so I didn’t give 100% effort which I don’t think is good if I want to get the most out of this challenge. Perhaps I’ll have to start doing them in the morning- or at least half of them.

    Protein: 19.9g (this is embarrassingly low and I need to actually be eating)

  33. So admittedly I have been a bit lazy.

    My last post was on 3/10 and I was on my period for a week. My next workout after that was on 3/18/24 and that day I did 3 sets of 8 5-second reps with 5 seconds relaxation between each rep and 2 minutes between sets with my KegelMaster on Level 2 (one spring on post 2). Then I got sick.

    So today was my first workout in about a week. I did the same 3×8 on Level 2 with the KegelMaster. To my surprise and delight I can pretty much close it all the way now on Level 2. Yay progress! I think for my next workout I will try upping the reps for each set to 10-12 reps and see how that goes. If that is still doable for me, then I think during the workout after that one I will add a spring to the first post and put myself back to level 3 on the KegelMaster.

    Despite today being my first workout in over a week, I will say that I think being sick has helped me strengthen my pelvic floor. Let me explain.

    So while I was sick I was of course coughing and sneezing and blowing my nose a lot (duh). But I soon realized that I have been coughing and sneezing and blowing my nose incorrectly basically my whole life.

    When I would cough/ sneeze/ blow my nose/ etc, my upper rectus abdominis would engage, intra-abdominal pressure would increase any my pelvic floor would be pushed down as if bearing down during labor or straining on the toilet.

    Not good. Not good at all.

    The correct way to cough, sneeze, blow your nose, laugh, or even breathe for that matter is to engage the transverse abdominis which naturally activates the pelvic floor into a kegel contraction, and the diaphragm pushes upwards to expel the mucus from the lungs/nasal cavity when blowing your nose or coughing or sneezing.

    It was easy enough to retrain myself to do this when blowing my nose or sneezing and coughing over the past week since I had already been practicing this correct breathing pattern as a breathing exercising and when breathing through stretches. Now, I cough, sneeze, etc correctly with TVA engagement pretty much automatically.

    The result? Now my pelvic floor is engaging correctly against the pressure of coughing and sneezing and is effectively being worked and strengthened with each cough and sneeze rather than being weakened and excessive pressure being forced downwards on my pelvic floor which over time could have led to prolapse- that is why one should never strain on the toilet, push your pee out when urinating or engage the rectus abs instead of the TVA when coughing, laughing, sneezing or blowing one’s nose.

    I do think that perhaps this retraining is why I am able to now close the KegelMaster on Level 2 after being sick for a week and not working out with the KegelMaster at all during that weeklong period. Being sick is no fun but I think I learned a valuable lesson. Yay Me!
