    I never understood the exhale while squeezing (sucking in a blueberry) kegel exercise hold . If anything my reflex is to do the opposite and inhale while squeezing. Are we supposed to hold our breath while squeezing the hold? Why?

    This is an interesting question. As a professional singer, I’ve been taught to push the pelvic floor down while singing (exhaling), but curious to see what she says, maybe it depends on the activity and objective.

    The reason is that your diaphragm contracts when you exhale so everything is "smaller" there fore leas pressure on the pelvic floor. You want to basically relax the pelvic floor while inhaling because of the greater amount of pressure on it.

    You always exhale when you're flexing a muscle/doing the active exercise. This is for literally every workout.

    I have a question, I dont know if you can help, but I started having pain in my right leg and lots of spider veins. I feel like its coming from the big vein near my pelvis. (On the right) I feel like my right side is more lower when I stand too much. Is there something I can do so I dont feel heaviness down there and also for my leg to not hurt so much? Thank you! * Im in my second trimester
