A strong pelvic floor is one of the best things you can do for both your pleasure and your health — and kegel balls make training for it surprisingly fun and easy. In this episode of Sex Ed with Sunny, Sunny shows how to use kegel balls to strengthen your pelvic floor.
Give it a watch, then read on for the highlights.
What Kegel Training Does
Your pelvic floor is the hammock of muscles that supports your bladder and, for women, the uterus. Training it pays off in a big way: better bladder control, stronger and easier-to-reach orgasms, more sensation during sex, and better core support. And like any muscle, it gets stronger with a little regular work.
Why Use Kegel Balls?
You can do kegels anywhere with no equipment — but kegel balls make them far more effective. The weighted balls give your muscles something to gently grip and hold, so they work automatically as you go about your day. Think of them as little dumbbells for your pelvic floor.
How to Use Them
It's simple. Add a little water-based lube, then insert the ball (or balls) much like you would a tampon, leaving the retrieval cord or loop outside for easy removal. The weight naturally engages your muscles to hold everything in place — you can wear them for 15 to 20 minutes, or do gentle squeeze-and-release reps while they're in.
Start Light and Build Up
If you're just beginning, start with a single, lighter ball or a larger size — bigger and lighter is actually easier to hold. As you get stronger, you can work up to heavier or smaller balls. A graduated set, like the Fantasy For Her set Sunny shows, gives you everything you need to progress at your own pace.
Make It a Habit
Consistency beats intensity every time. Just a few minutes a day is plenty, and most people notice a difference within a few weeks. Tuck it into a routine you already have and it becomes effortless.
Keep It Clean
Stick with body-safe silicone, wash your kegel balls with warm water and a gentle toy cleaner before and after each use, let them dry fully, and store them somewhere clean. And always reach for a water-based lube.
