I am a 77 year old woman with a VERY overactive bladder. I do take medication for it, which does help. I started doing this workout 18 days ago (I aim for every other day,) and within 2 weeks I could feel the difference. Much less leaking AND not waking up every 2 hours to go pee! This is such a simple workout, but so effective! Thank you so much!
Have you gone to a pelvic floor therapist? I am 56 with an extremely overactive bladder and as much as these exercises helped me a pft calmed my bladder down and helped with my tight pelvic floor. My pft gave me my life back.
I know it sounds weird that I’m telling you this because I’m only 18 years old (I am a kid and not old ) , but I want to try this because I have poor bladder control and my bladder is very overactive and last night it kept me up at night ! I also have issues with my bowels as well and this worsens the bladder issues . I also have issues with emptying properly and I always accidentally sit on the toilet wrong and make messes by accident. I hope I’m not sounding embarrassing by saying this . I hope I’m not alone and that I’m not the only kid my age going through this or person in general going through this ! I also cannot drink caffeine or alcohol or citrus fruits, or I will pee in my pants ! My vegan diet has helped a lot and eating fiber gummies has helped a lot , along with losing weight in my stomach , which I gained weight from last year when I was given a medicine for my depression called abilify and it made my bladder issues worse and I was always in pain ! It also tore up my body and gave me stretch marks , which I hated , because I’m just a young girl ! I was very concerned , because my waist and collarbones are naturally very skinny , while the rest of me is healthily plump , but not fat (I have an hourglass ⌛️ figure !) My bladder issues have caused me a lot of disruptions in my everyday life and I’m also autistic, dyslexic , and I have ADHD! I also have multiple chronic mental and physical illnesses from trauma ,such as anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, borderline personality disorder, schizotypal personality disorder, psoriasis , and GERD. I have severe chronic health problems and your videos help me a lot , so I want to say , thank you, as a young girl who struggles a lot ! Your videos give me hope for people like me and I hope they give me some relief !
Omg me too am Also 18 well I don’t have the rest but I can relate To the making a mess thing and Honesly reading this gives me Reassurance am On the right track!
I started with bladder issues in my 20s, very young as well,. I thought I would be worse now at old age, but I'm not as bad as I thought. I have more control now than in my 30s. I'm 65. The thing is having consistency with these exercises. I still suffer because I do them on and off, but have decided to not let go and stick to them. It's never too late if you have kept a healthy lifestyle. Cut out or cut down on caffeine, fizzy drinks, as well as alcohol. Consume them in moderation.
Thank you so much for offering this workout - I've been doing it a few times a week for a couple of months now and it's made SO much difference in not needing to urinate so frequently! I was seeing a PT specialist, but this is a lot better priced than $300/month. ;)
Caroline Jordan, Thank you so much for this Pelvic Floor Workout!! I have been using it for a month, everyday, and am having fewer bladder accidents!! This workout has changed my daily life!! from: Catherine Swanson
Ive just started with your exercises today. Hope it works..I feel so embarrassed about this leaking issues. Im so so grateful for your video and your sense of humour!! Thanks again!!!
read the full instructional blog on these standing pelvic floor exercises here carolinejordanfitness.com/6-minute-standing-pelvic-floor-workout-ultimate-core-strength/
8 weeks out from hysterectomy. I’m feeling strong but now quite ready for abs workouts yet, so made a playlist of pelvic floor workouts. I’be learned so much about how important the pelvic floor is! Thank you!!
Love the way you describe what we have to do, find pelvic exercise just need that . First time will do this after my regular exercise and let you know in a week or two
I have just started your exercise program as I have levitor Ani Syndrom and it is very painful and also multiple sclerosis I had tried laying on my bed doing leg strength img exercises bud these coursed terrible back pain so the standing exercises are so much better for me thank you for helping us with standing exercises
I'm 35 weeks pregnant and have pain around my pelvic areas. I have been doing this lately, almost everyday. I love that I can feel so much difference right away. And I love your vibe! Whenever you say "I'm grateful that you are here today doing this exercise" I feel so much appreciation from you. Thank you!
Felt this! I'm maintaining after belly surgery (many years ago) and this is great! And I love how I am always grinning after doing your workouts and feeling happy - Thanks! 😁
I’m searching videos for exercises for a bladder prolapse. I just happened to buy a Pilates ball so this was handy. It was quick to perform so I was able to try it right away. I also have low back issues so this is helpful to strengthen my lower back too. Thank you!
Also important for pregnancy. Female adult incontinence is a HUGE issue, as the levator muscles can be damaged during childbirth if the region isn't in good shape.
Hello Caroline, I have just tried your exercises and feel better already, I am using a cushion and plan to get a ball. What size ball do I get, They come in many sizes. I am going to do these exercises every day, Thank you so much
Can you show some more pelvic exercises for stress incontinence in standing position. I have a total knee replacement and cannot do exercises very well on the floor
Hey Caroline!! It's Kym, I do your 10 minute after meals each morning as part of my morning exercise ritual😊 and after meals, usually dinner. I was looking through your videos to see what type of standing abs workouts you had, I pulled up to this one, didn't have a ball ⚽ so used a pillow. I like this for daily during the week, I even held out the 45 second intervals😅 I have noticed I'm losing some inches, Lil in some places, do these exercises help belly fat melt? I have like that " Poochy" In the center, lower, really. I hope to see results however long it takes!!love your motivational encouragement, feels like we're one on one😊 Thanks for it all.. you have a community member for life
Hey just found this and it sounds perfect! I've been doing kegel exercises regularly but I am thinking this might give me added insurance that I am truly strengthening my kegel floor instead of just doing the kegels. Is this correct? At any rate thinking of doing this onced a day and the kegels the other times in my day. thank you!
When i was in p|t and squeezed a ball between my legs it tightened my V.. but the prolapse was comming down. It felt . Awful.. i had to change the exercise. That was 2 or more years ago. The pt was for knee pain.. now the prolaspe is worse and so is the pain in my knee and leg..
Why do the feet need to be turned in for one of the pelvic floor exercises please? I like to fully understand the full body posture?? Love your exercises lovely x
Good stuff! Like this workout but still aim to get strong enough to do your pelvic floor Pilates block workout too. I’ll start your one-month challenge & let you know how it goes. Thanks for the challenge!😅
I am 52 years old, and 10 weeks out from a total hysterectomy. My doc suggested Pelvic Floor PT - which is not easy to find so far. I am going to start these. How long should it take to feel a difference if I do these daily or every other day?
I’ve been struggling with a weird pain on my pelvis, this year I started experiencing lower back stiffness, so i stated to do yoga and stretches for my back thinking the stiffness was coming from by back and radiating to my pelvis, the yoga and stretches only made my stiffens become pain. After research I realized that the pain actually started on my pelvis a while back. I started these exercises and I feel great while I’m doing them but after I cool off I feel stiff and I feel some pain, is it normal? Should I feel worse before I feel better? 1:48
Hi, I like your video, but I have a question: is there a trick for keeping the pelvic floor from releasing during long holds? It always seems to release without me noticing.

Does ir help for pelvic dysfunction?

I really liked that exercise at the end ...really worked the core and no stress on the back...
The pigeon toe move and the last move is a game changer.

I've only done this twice, but I can already tell a difference in my pelvic strength. I won't fear the sneeze.
Thank you Caroline. Love the standing part. Great exercises for us active Grandma's.
Excellent, short but effective
I love the idea of doing these standing up, because I can no longer get up from the floor due to hip arthritis. Thank you!
Glad you like them!
Can’t say enough good things about your channel! Woohoo! Can you please do more of these workout for TVA activation and deep core
I am pleased to announce that I have noticed a big improvement
