Build on pelvic floor strength by incorporating different speeds of movement. The pelvic floor consists of both fast and slow-twitch muscle fibers, so working at varied speeds is essential for recruiting all muscle fibers and maintaining their strength and flexibility. This is especially important for post-menopausal individuals, as fast-twitch fibers decline more rapidly with age due to reduced collagen production. You’ll move through seated, all fours, and standing positions, with yoga poses and Pilates-inspired variations that are more challenging. You may need wall for balance during faster standing movements. You'll need a yoga bolser, if you have one, and a yoga block or book. It is recommended that you do Gentle Pelvic Floor exercises before this one.
