I’ve heard them mentioned a lot lately but I don’t really understand how to do them.
Once you have located the muscles simply tighten and relax the mucsle over and over, about 200 times a day. These are basic kegels. There are many variations on kegels: elevator kegels (Where you tighten slowly, in increments going in and out, like an elevator stopping on several floors.), you can hold the muscle tightened for five seconds, you can bulge the muscles out at the end, and many other variations.
There are so many benefits to doing Kegel exercises! Conditioned muscles will make birth easier, and your perineum will more likely be intact (fewer tears and episiotomies), sexual enjoyment is enhanced for both partners, it can prevent prolapses of pelvic organs,
it can help prevent leaking urine when you sneeze or cough – and that’s a pretty big one for me (grin).
Good luck

Try to tighten your vaginal area…..It is hard to describe, but as if you are holding in your poo those are the muscles you are needing to use.

When you’re going to the bathroom (pee) and you flex the muscle to stop the flow, that’s a kegel. Flex it in, hold for 3-5 seconds and release. That’s it! =)

You use the muscles that stop the flow of your urine. Next time you go stop the flow and you will have an idea. You can then do them whenever.
