Key Points

Tight pelvic floor muscles can be just as dysfunctional as weak ones, and proper functionality requires a balance of strength and relaxation.
Basic exercises like bridges, squats, and lunges, when done correctly, can be more effective than Kegels for improving pelvic floor health.
Breathing and posture play crucial roles in pelvic floor functionality, and consistent, mindful practices can lead to significant improvements in both physical and emotional health.
