In this video by Michelle Kenway, she refers to 3 different parts of a Kegel exercise:
1. Contracting muscles at the base of penis as though trying to shorten/withdraw penis inward towards body
2. Contracting muscles at the base of penis as though trying to stop the flow of urine
3. Trying to tighten your anus as if you're stopping gas from passing.
I've tried these exercises for the past 2-3 weeks. I have somehow gotten most of these muscles to strengthen but for exercise 2 it feels that I am contracting the muscles somewhere at the perineum rather than at the base of the penis.
Aside from this video, I've also been looking at advice from the book "The multi-Orgasmic Man" by Mantak Chia & Douglas Abrams. The book mentions, for the purposes of stopping ejaculation, training the muscles related to parts 2 and 3 above but not part 1 which makes me wonder if I need to train the exercise in part 1. I am also confused because Michelle Kenway was talking of her exercises as being helpful for bladder control and erectile dysfunction but did not explicitly talk about premature ejaculation.
Some context
I'm trying to train my PC muscles because I believe that they can help increase my control over premature ejaculation.
The way I THINK it is supposed to work is that a man should contract the above muscles as he get close to the point of no return to stop the flow of semen. I actually do not know what other stages during masturbation/sex these muscles should be contracted.
Questions
1. Are all three of the above 'parts' of a Kegel exercise helpful for controlling PE?
Did you find training any of the above muscle groups less useful than the others? Did you as a result only train some and not all of these exercises?
For example, I feel during my own masturbation that exercise 2 is a lot more useful in stopping the flow of semen than exercises 1 and 3.
2. I have a feeling that my understanding of the way these contractions are supposed to control ejaculation is incomplete. Could someone explain how it works in better detail?
Something I have noticed is that, for example, even if I manage to temporarily stop ejaculation by contracting my PC muscles, my arousal will still be at a high point and if I get back to rubbing my dick without waiting I will still be as close to ejaculation as I was before I had contracted my PC muscle. I've found that in order to decrease my arousal I would have stop for a while to do some calm/deep breathing and attempt to draw my sexual energy away from the penis and up the spine.
Is it the case that these PC contractions can only be used to stop ejaculation from happening while we have to rely on other means to decrease arousal levels (breathing and channeling sexual energy away)?
Thanks for reading the post
