What can Kegels do for me?

Kegel exercises are a modern take on an ancient idea. For those of you who are not aware, exercising the pubococcygeus muscle was first developed by the Taoist movement in China quite some time ago. Their exercises were meant to strengthen various muscles in order to promote health, longevity, spiritual development and also better sex. Doctor Arnold Kegel has simply made this kind of exercises popular in another age and brought them to the attention of more people than ever before.

The name ‘Kegel’ is another way of referring to exercises whose aim is to restore and increase the tone of the pubococcygeus muscle by regular clenching and unclenching. A strong PC muscle helps men maintain control of erections and ejaculations, increases the flow of blood to the penis, keeps the prostate in check in old age and prevents incontinence. Women can also use Kegels to bring their vagina back into shape after the stretching caused by childbirth. As you can see, Kegels are great for both men and women and are best taken up early on in order to prepare the pelvic floor for old age.

The role of the pubococcygeus muscle in the sexual health of men and women has been thoroughly documented over the years. The San Francisco Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality published a study on Kegel Exercises in 1983 which focused on the sexual benefits women can get from exercising their PC muscles, while Jack Morin authored a study called Anal Pleasure and Health in 1981. The bottom line of these studies was the simple fact that well toned pelvic muscles, including the PC muscle, improve sexual control and play a key part in achieving orgasm.

The PC muscle can be identified by stopping urination mid-flow. Anybody who has ever tried to keep from urinating knows instinctively what muscles to tense in order to close the urethra and prevent the emptying of your bladder. Men can usually identify the PC muscle by tensing the muscles in their pelvic floor until they find the one that makes their penis jump. This is best done with an erect penis, because the movement of the penis is easier to observe. Basically, the muscle is located between the scrotum and the anus.

As stated above, the main benefit men get out of exercising their pubococcygeus muscle is the vastly increased control over ejaculation and the improved erection. PC flexes, just like any other exercises, draw more blood to the area because the muscles need oxygen to repair their cells after exercises. The increase in blood supply helps the penis reach full erection faster and also to last in this phase longer than usual. Moreover, since a well toned PC muscle can stop the flow of urine, it can also stop the flow of semen. Therefore, exercises help men gain control over the ejaculation and ejaculate whenever they want, which is a boon to any man and especially to those who suffer from premature ejaculation.

Naturally, the PenisHealth program features PC flexes because these exercises are crucial to the overall health of the penis. A strong pubococcygeus muscle helps promote blood flow to the pubic area, thus increasing the chances that penis enlargement occurs. Not to mention that performing ejaculation control exercises along with the penis enlargement routines is the best way of achieving two goals at once: longer and thicker penis and erections and ejaculations on demand.

Penis Medical Conditions

Because on this site I talk about the penis I decided to include some information on penis medical conditions. If you are suffering from any of these conditions hopefully my information will help you.

Fertility:

In about 40% of infertile couples, the cause of the infertility lies with the males. There are many reasons for male infertility.
Quick Fact: It takes approximately 72-90 days to produce mature sperm. Sperm is produced 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Impotency:

Impotence is the inability of a man either to have an erection or to keep the penis erect long enough to have sexual intercourse. This is a common problem affecting as many as 10 million men in the United States. By the time most men are 40 they have already experienced impotence at some time in their lives.

When just a single incident occurs, the best thing to do is forget about it. Problems arise when this difficulty starts occurring regularly.

According to an article published in early 1993 (review: Morley, 1993), approximately 10 million men in the U.S. have problems with impotence.

Men afflicted with repeated impotence tend to be middle-aged and older, with such a condition most common in men 60 years of age and older. Regardless of the age, however, many men who have this problem can be treated successfully.

Impotence can result from a wide variety of problems. As with any other ailment, when a person begins having this problem repeatedly, he needs to see a doctor. The doctor will want to rule out the possibility of disease, injury, or side effects from medicine.

For example, cardiovascular problems, diabetes, injuries to the spinal column, and side effects from high blood pressure medicine are among the physical conditions that can lead to impotence. An erection occurs when the nervous system activates a rapid increase in blood flow. The vascular muscle in the spongy area becomes engorged with blood and outflow of blood is cutoff. Erection can be elicited by the so-called reflex erection as we see in spinal cord patients, or can be caused by psychogenic stimulation. Numerous sexual stimuli are processed by the brain and transmitted to the penis via the nervous system. In order to get an erection, the blood flow must increase and, at the same time, the blood has to be prevented from leaving the penis.

The History and Following of the Greek God Priapus

Search the internet for a character description of the Greek God Priapus, and you’ll more often than not find a statuesque image of a unusual God, who is depicting with a large appendage.

Notably remembered as being the god of fertility, growth and health, in truth Priapus is best remembered for his graphic representations within art and his continuing influence on the male fascination with the idea of a enlarged penis.

Who was Priapus?

The son of Aphrodite and Dionysus, myth suggests that Priapus was cursed by the Goddess Hera as punishment for his mother’s beauty.

Refused admittance by the other Gods to Mount Olympus and forced to live amongst shepherds, it was Priapus’s frustration at being impotent that first led to his enlarged penis becoming permanently erect.

Destined to be impotent, ugly and foul-minded, Priapus earned his reputation for being lustful after trying to rape the nymph Lotis. Unsuccessful in this mission, Priapus’s frustration at being impotent resulted in his penis becoming permanently erect and his body, unable to move.

What was he worshipped for?

Priapus had two roles within Greek society. One as an agricultural deity who was commonly celebrated through offerings of fruits, flowers, vegetables and fish; and secondly as a god ruled by his lustful nature.

Even to this day, Priapus is more easily recognised for his enlarged penis, than for his real purposes within Greek history. Yet when you correlate his story with that of penis enlargement, it is easy to see why men have such a fascination with it today.

Where does Priapus stand in modern society?

Look back over the last 2,000 years and mans’ fascination with attaining a larger penis can easily be linked to God’s such as Priapus. Remembered for being figures of authority, power and strength, Priapus is just one of many gods’ who inspired the historical development of penis enlargement.

Woven sleeves, weights or manually putting a slit in their shaft… these are just a sample of the methods developed over centuries by African tribes and the Polynesians in their mission to elongate their penis.

Over the last 20-30 years penis enlargement methods have radical changed as various methods, including surgery, penile exercises and arguably the most successful method, penis traction devices, are very much in the forefront of the mainstream market.

Penis Enlargement Information

Does the size of your penis really matter? Statistics say penis size does count.

In a recent study, the overwhelming majority of women said penis size was at least somewhat important to them:

• 18% said penis length was very important, 22% said penis girth was very important
• 57% said penis length was somewhat important, 53% said penis girth was somewhat important
• 25% said penis length was unimportant, 25% said penis girth was unimportant

The size of the penis obviously matters to women, but it is also a big part of a man’s self-esteem. While a small penis used to be something many men were ashamed of, it doesn’t have to be anymore. There are a multitude of ways that men are enhancing the size of their penis therefore improving their attractiveness to women and boosting their own self esteem.

If you’ve found this size, chances are you’re looking to enlarge your penis (or even that of your partner.) There are a few things you should know before you get started. First off, you have to have patience. Penis growth doesn’t happen over night and there’s certainly no quick fix that I know of.

Naturally, no man likes to be told that he has to be patient and the result will only show after a couple of weeks. Motivation comes hard when day follows day and the only thing you have to show for your efforts is a slightly sore penis. Still, you should know that persistence pays off results do come in time. Tissue needs time to grow and that many people experience growth spurts and plateaus and that you just need to be patient.

Most beginners, are very impatient and think that having only one penis enlargement session per day is not enough. However, scheduling two or three penis enlargement sessions per day will simply exhaust the penis and you won’t see gains faster. Penis enlargement is based on intensity and regularity, which is why performing a routine more than once per day is not as effective as doing it once, but very intensely. The tissues need time to recover and grow in size, just like muscles need to heal after a gym session. Overtraining is never recommended.

Another problem that beginners spot right away and those veterans know very well is the fact that pubic hair gets in the way of both enlargement exercises and the use of traction devices. There’s always the fear of pulling hair by mistake and causing intense pain, while some men also feel that the hair prevents them from getting a good grip on the base of the shaft. The best thing to do is to clip the hair short or to shave it altogether. No sense in struggling through a session because of the hair. Shaving is a pretty radical decision, but you can always grow it back later.

And hair is not the biggest problem. No man has full control of his penis and, therefore, no man can set it to achieve partial erections on demand. Many times, men find themselves fully erect and unable to perform exercises that require only a partial erection. There is only way of dealing with this and that is to focus on something that doesn’t involve sex (read a magazine or a book, watch TV, think about money or food) and just wait for the erection to subside a little.

And finally, don’t measure your penis too often. Frequent measuring is unlikely to show big gains and can undermine the motivation of a man engaged in penis enlargement. Always remember that it’s your penis and your sex life that are at stake and act accordingly. Rushing can undo weeks of effort and should always be avoided. Getting there is more important than getting there fast.
