When you cut off your stream during urination, the muscles that contract to prevent further urine flow are your PC muscles.<\/p>\n<p>The benefit to Kegels is that they can be done anytime, anywhere\u2014on the couch, at your desk, in the car, even while you\u2019re reading this <i>right now<\/i>.<\/p>\n<h2>How To Do Male Kegels<\/h2>\n<p><b><\/b>To prove the aforementioned, let\u2019s practice now.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Relax your body.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Contract your PC muscles, stimulating the feeling of stopping urination, and hold for 5 seconds.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Release your PC muscles and relax for 5 seconds.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Repeate 15 times, three times a day\u2014morning, noon and evening.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Like any new lifestyle habit, male kegels may feel awkward at first. Take it as a sign that you&#8217;re working on a new muscle or one that could use some strengthening.<\/p>\n<p>The most important thing to keep in mind during kegel workouts for men is actually flexing your PC muscle and not just your abs, thighs or glutes. Flexing other muscles can relieve the pressure needed on the PC in order for it to engage and grow.<\/p>\n<h3>How To Enhance Kegel Workouts<\/h3>\n<p>Just like a weightlifting routine, you should start small and build your way up as your muscles become stronger.<\/p>\n<p>Where in weightlifting, you\u2019d increase weight over time, with Kegels you can increase\u00a0<i>wait<\/i>\u00a0over time\u2014<strong>holding the PC contraction at longer intervals, 10 or even 20 seconds a rep.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A potentially more effective method to <strong>improving male kegels is by using male masturbators.<\/strong> Men&#8217;s sex toys, like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/f2s\">F2S stroker<\/a>, are designed for penile stimulation by delivering deep sonic pulses along with stroking. This combination is great for stronger erections and more intense ejaculation.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/f2s\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-44978 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/lelo-f2s-animation-red.gif\" alt=\"f2s lelo male kegels\" width=\"425\" height=\"425\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another benefit of this male stroker in particular is that it comes with app-conectivity, and the app gives users the ability to tailor vibration patterns and intensities unique to PC needs.<\/p>\n<h2>Male Kegel Result Time<\/h2>\n<p><b><\/b>Like any real workout routine, results come with time and commitment.
