I appreciate you acknowledging that you may be using terms that could cause some people to feel uncomfortable. I think this was very considerate and conscientious of you. I see someone make a comment about you apologizing for using medical terms but as a medical professional myself I understand that you never know how a person may react .

Thank you for your Kegel talk. People don’t like to talk about it but it needs to be addressed. Kegel exercise really works. Your sense of humor to me is great.

Glad you guys covered this. It’s not something that only affects women

As a lady, I highly recommend women go see a pelvic floor physical therapist rather than just doing kegels. We often have muscles that are too tight that need to relax before we can gain control of our urine. If you contract muscles that are already too tight, you can hurt yourself and make it worse. Get an exam and have your exercises customized to your situation. It might be awkward to talk about or let someone examine what's going on, but it is so worth it. The things I learned from my physical therapist also helped reduce my pain from endometriosis. Ladies, I am you, go make an appointment for this! Don't try to struggle through on your own.

Such a common issue and we unfortunately don’t talk about it enough, or it’s shrugged off as a “normal” part of having kids or aging. Many people don’t know there is something you can do about it! Thanks for sharing! 🙂

Thank you both for that simple and effective explanation. I going to start to practice right now. Made me really happy see Bob playful and happy!. God bless you both!.

I've had urge incontinence for several years and it's gotten worse aa I've aged. It is SOOOOOOOOO frustrating! I'm sharing my story here in case it helps anyone else. I've take terazosin (aka Hytrin) to relax me, as one urologist once said [serious eye roll], "down there" which I guess is my prostate, but I honestly don't know. I had a TUMT in 2004 which went badly and since then I've gad to take Ditripan (generic oxybutynin), for overactive bladder to help with the urgency. It sort of helps, but it doesn't stop the incontinence at all. I had to start wearing pads about a year ago as the condition got worse. One afternoon I was standing outside with a friend when I felt urine running down my leg and had absolutely no sensation of urine passing through my penis. That's when I started using pads. Men's guards, a sort of triangular shaped pad that adheres to the inside of fitted underwear such as jockey shorts or boxer briefs which I wear. I will just start peeing, and I got sick of doing pants and underwear laundry so frequently. I've recently had a TURP so now I can empty my bladder easily and pretty thoroughly. I've been measuring my output, and it's around 250-275 mls per urination. I just read that the first urge to go comes at around 240 mls of urine in the bladder. When I reach the 250 stage, I have just a minute or so to get to a toilet before I start urinating. I'm going to work diligently on Kegels. I looked up pelvic floor muscles to better understand what Kegels are doing. I hope that helps me. Guys, do yourself a favor. Learn the medical terms for your genitals and don't be afraid to tslk to your doctor about this problem or frequent urination. By all mesns get a yearly PSA blood test and a digital rectal exam to ensure you DO NOT HAVE PROSTATE CANCER, the 2nd leading causes of death in men! Being embarrassed about dropping your pants and catching a finger in your butt can kill you! GET OVER IT! How many brave things have you done in your life? Tons? Make this one of them! Remember that doctors do DREs on a daily basis. They do not care about your butt, and a DRE is not gay or gonna make you gay! Trust me! I'm gay and I bloody hate them, but they are so necessary. Prostate cancer may not show up with either a DRE or a PSA blood test (prostate specific antigen). The tissue removed during my TURP waa analyzed by a pathologist, and it was determined that I have prostate cancer, but there is so little of it and it is such a slow growing variety that my PSAs for years have been pretty much under 3. Hopefully, this will be a case of "watch and wait" fizr years to come. In the meantime, I'm doing those Kegels so I can try to eliminate my urge incontinence which is what this is all about. I hate using pads and I hate taking these damn medications so I hope this helps alter if not eliminate my incontinence. I hope my verbal vomiting here helps someone!

Thank you....for your kindness. I laugh so much when I watch your videos. If you only knew how refreshing your easy bantering mixed with your expertise helps me learn what your teaching! *hugs* Thank you again...

Anyone pass 50 should appreciate this video. Thank you!

Been doing kegels for 40 years. Still had menopause related incontinence. HRT has helped, but that isn't a permanent solution. Hoping once my menopause symptoms settle, that will too.

Getting beyond professionals who apologize for using bodily terms, this is very helpful information. I was told about the Kegel Method but apparently was told how to do it incorrectly. Thank you for the explanation. It was very helpful.

Hey Bob and Brad! I visited my osteopathic doctor today. I sent him an email a week or so ago bragging about you two. Guess what he said today. You two are his go-to guys for patients like me who don't have covered physical therapy with their insurance. Stupid. Doctors either want to throw a pill at it or cut it. Nothing in between. Stupid. He actually pulled you up on his computer. I don't know if he actually tells patients about you, but I think he watches you and gets ideas to help his patients who can't have PT. You guys are great!

Thank you for covering this topic! You guys are great!!!

~You are both an inspiration to all of us who really need your professional advice..thank you very much.🥰🙏

Great job B&B. Difficult subject, but you always make it fun and helpful.

One of my sisters is having issues right now, so I'm going to recommend this to her.

Add another body part of mine you guys have straightened out.

Thanks for explaining how to do the exercises

This was a must watch, I couldn’t wait to see how you looked explaining the exercises.🙂 Nice job

I’ve been doing kegel exercises for a long time, and they help with all kinds of issues. People with vaginas can also use weighted balls to develop pelvic floor muscles.

You guys are great, I don’t have that problem, but had to watch your presentation, which was terrific

Curious how many times they had to record this, lol. Took a lot of facial muscle strengthening exercises to get through this one.

You didn't have to tell me "not to do it in public."

Thank you for being so specific. It's difficult to isolate the correct muscles when you can't picture the specifics. I needed to know; but, please forgive me, I really enjoyed watching Brad squirm!

Thank you for your dedication to helping others👏🏼

Excellent presentation! Well done! Thank you!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE INTRODUCTION TO THIS VIDEO! IRS A GREAT QUOTE!! You guys are an answer to my prayers, I'm 5? and I have been thinking about this, a lot, lately so thank you Bob and Brad!!

You guys are great! Serious problem addressed with humor. ❤️

For men, a common side effect after prostate surgery.

I cannot believe that grown men who practice physical therapy apologize for using anatomical terms.

Omg i love your videos have help me a lot GRACIAS!!!!

G, I’ve been doing these with just lifting in the front. I didn’t know you’re supposed to lift the front and the back. Maybe that’s why they haven’t been working? But everybody said that you’re supposed to lift like you’re squeezing not to go to the bathroom (yes I’m a woman) You guys are awesome. This was two years ago. I wish I could’ve won that price. I have pain in my feet, and it would’ve been great exercise.

😁 That intro jingle is awesome! Also kegals aides with *PRE MATURE EJACULATION!*

Thank you for explaining these things to us. Good information everyone should know.

I love these two . I pray for especially Bob he sounds like he’s having trouble talking like he’s been numbed at a dentist appointment not yet completely cleared up did great considering hope all gets better

I watched a couple of videos just now and they are very helpful. Keep up the good work.

I thought I knew all I needed to about this, but, no! I did not. I realized I do tense up secondary muscles. Also didn't know about the slow/fast twitch considerations. Good info! But had to laugh a bit over Bob's blushing at a few places. I truly appreciate that you did this video.

I've been doing kegels every day, for about three months now. I do ten reps lying flat on the floor. I've definitely noticed improved control of my bladder. As a side benefit, doing kegels enhances male sexual performance (you last longer). I'm a golfer. There's nothing worse than having to piss on the golf course when there's no bathroom in sight, and you feel like you can't hold it. What more incentive do I need.

Thank you so much. You did a really great job.

Great topic again! You've helped my shoulder quite a bit, too, with other discussions. Thank you.

Good video - yes there are a lot of male paper products in the pharmacy section - there is a legion of men using them and a lot of them are post prostatectomy yet still most of the language and focus on this disability is around the female anatomy - most men simply expected to move on after the surgery and you are right they hate to talk about it. Mike.

Very well done. Thank you.

Great information well presented...comedy helps on serious taboo topics

For women just doing kegel exercises isn't enough. You have to tighten the poochy area Right under your lower belly. The poochy area right by your pubic bone. If you don't do specific exercises to tighten the pooch it will always press on your bladder.Also squats and bridges.and avoiding citrus fruits as well as tomatoes and spicy foods.

Great kegel exercise really works

~As always B & B....your the best.

Just a quick thankyou for this video. I have been doing kegel exercises but did not know a if I was doing them correctly. I so appreciate your help and infomercial. God bless.

Thank you for this video. My husband was told to do Kegels after his prostate surgery but can only find one's with women demonstrating them. This will help him.

Best explanation I have heard of this exercise. Thanks

So happy to get this information. I'm elderly now.

Thank you for explaining this so well!

Thank you for covering this topic.

Thanks guys, very helpful.

If you need a good laugh, read all the comments!! Soooo fun!! Super awkward discussion, “butt” so incredibly important! You guys are great!!! So sorry you got a few thumbs down!!! I’m sure it was accidental!! Their thumbs slipped from the thumbs up!! 👍

Whoa you guys are lookin’ good!!!

This is the best explanation I had on Incontinence and was wandering didn’t they discover something better after the 1950ts ? I felt like watching a comedian show very helpful off course ,thank you guys

Kegels never worked for me. I did them religiously for 10 years. Finally I discovered that you need to bounce with exercise or dance to train your pelvic floor muscles not to leak anymore. You have to do the very exercise that makes you leak. For me it was jumping up and down on a trampoline. Once I was able to anticipate when the leak was going to happen I could anticipate and re- train my muscles the proper way and now no more accidents. I want to share this news with others and that's why I created my own workouts.

A friend suggested an app that has really helped me track my progress. Its free and is called Kegel Trainer by Olson Apps. Starts easy and progresses as you build your ability to contract muscles.

Men's exercises start at 7:50.

A big thanks for reminding me to not grab my junk in public, you guys are lifesavers!

I have seen the LegMaster exercise equipment advertised as a great way to lift and strengthen the pelvic floor. Have you tried it?

Thank you. Well explained... Helpful information.

Kegel. Does not work with heavy diuretic users. They have accidents. I’ve been doing kegel. 50 years and these diuretics are hard.

Please do another one on Incontinence and talk more about women with this problem. I love to hear it from you two.

😂😂🤣 I love these guys‼️

I was fine. Now I have this, life is hell.

I can’t thank you enough for this video.❤

Bob sounds like he's had a few drinks..LOL

Wish u can do Kegel series.. thanks 🙏

Yay, love yall!🥰🥰🥰🥰

Such a great video!

There are actually physical therapists that specializes in this. And medications that help. (I have MS. This is my area of expertise.) Finally, it's only embarrassing the first dozen times. After that, it's just annoying.

If you've had a prostatectomy and have incontinence, kegels aren't of much benefit. You'll need a surgical procedure such as sling or artificial sphincter to stop the leakage once and for all.

You guys are the best!!

What are alternative solutions for men who've had prostate surgery and have limited mobility? They basically can't do the kegel exercises. Thank you.

I'm pretty sure the proper medical term for that part of the human anatomy is the "t'aint".

Can you make videos on pelvic floor tightness or imbalance or how to assess pelvic floor dysfunction ...

I am dealing with this issue and appreciate the info. I had started to decrease how much I was drinking. I am wondering if we should be drinking as much liquid as we do. Are we thirsty or are we just enjoying the taste of a sweet drink. Can we overwork the kidneys? I mean a cup of coffee or tea used to be a small cup.. Someone told me 4ozs of water per hour should be fine unless exercise or heat or misc. Have we become not just overeaters but over drinkers and are now paying the price? Just a thought...

Thank you for such great video🙏🙏🙏

GOOD TIPS. THKS

Please be careful about recommending kegels. Not everyone should do them but it seems like everyone is recommending them for everyone. Kegels could be the last thing someone with urinary incontinence should do depending on the cause. I have hypertonic pelvis disorder which can also lead to urinary incontinence and was told by my doctor and PT at Mayo that I should NOT do kegels as it would make it worse. Kegels are better for people with some prolapse of the pelvic floor.

Thank you, really helpful

Kegals can be Very bad for pelvic floor disorders PFD and IC (interstitial cystitis ) people should check with their uro or Drs.

Your captions let you down -- it's perineal, not perennial!

Guys, make a video on how to get taller!

Think “handshake” was what helped me, read that somewhere a decade ago.

Bob & Brad, your videos are talking videos, can you both demonstrate the various exercises and talk a little. A picture worth a thousand words, said Confucius. Thank you.

Simply put, aren’t we simply squeezing the same area that you use to stop gas?

I thought it was because the muscles were tense, not weak.

Bob: "You're supposed to fell like you're shortening your penis. Don't make a joke." Brad: "Like the turtle."

You have to laugh about this stuff. If you don't, you will lose your mind. I had a radical prostatectomy roughly 2 weeks ago from this post. I have been struggling with the incontinence ever since, which obviously goes hand in hand with having this procedure. I say this also, because I never struggled with incontinence and I am 59. But I am doing the kegel exercises a couple times a day in the hopes of regaining control of my bladder eventually. Until then, thank you mens depends underwear 😂😂😂 !!! Thanks also Bob and Brad for this video.

This was so ..... so informative. Cute

I thoght the Kegal ex' will be shown in this footage, where are thay?

Two guys talking about kegel exercises... . This could be fun, or a total train wreck.

I would like to see an exercise video for those of us with multiple sclerosis.

😄 Thanks, guys !!! 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽 This info is golden ... as uncomfortable as it might have been to share. 💙

Thank-you.

Kegel training apps work great.

Mera accident hone ke karan muze urine ke nali mai jakham ho gayi thi bad mai vo jakham thik to hogai pr peshab mai jalan har 10 min peshab ko jana padata jate jate leakage bhi hota bohot antibiotics bhi liya kuch fhayda nahi huva fhir mere bhai ne Utracon capsule and Utracon syrup ke baremai bataya or use Amazon se mangavaya liya to muze 1 mahine bohot aaram mila or is dawa ko mai 3 month tak liya to bar bar jane vali leakage ki problem thik ho gayi or ab muze bohot fresh lagata hai

Great video. Might this be a good exercise after a TURPs procedure? Thanks.
