How to Tone Up Your Taint (And Why It’s Important!)

The LOVE Team has put together all the advantages of this practice and some easy ways to make these exercises a part of your daily routine. Find out how taking care of your 'taint' can improve your life and up your game.

Anatomically speaking, the taint (or more formally, the perineum) is a set of muscles and tissues located between the anus and your bits. This diamond-shaped area stretches from your pubic bone to your tailbone and includes the pelvic floor muscles.

In men, the perineum supports several vital functions. It plays a key role in keeping your pelvic organs in place, helping with bladder and bowel control. A well-toned taint will give you better control over opening and closing your urethra, which can prevent urine leaks.

When it comes to sex, the perineum is actively involved in erectile function and the quality of your intimate moments. It supports the mechanics of getting an erection and plays a part in managing ejaculation. A strong taint can make sex last longer and intensify sensations during orgasm.

Giving your taint a good workout offers loads of benefits for male health and well-being. Strengthening your perineum can significantly boost your quality of life in several areas.

A healthy perineum helps keep urine leaks at bay. By beefing up your pelvic floor muscles, you get better control over when you go, reducing the risk of accidents. Plus, improved muscle tone down there makes managing your bladder a breeze.

The benefits of perineum workouts really shine in the bedroom. By strengthening this area, you can expect firmer and longer-lasting erections. A toned perineum also helps you control ejaculation better, making sex last longer. And the cherry on top? More intense orgasms, thanks to increased muscle control and better blood flow.

A strong perineum isn't just about below-the-belt benefits. It also boosts your core stability and strength, which is crucial for good posture and a healthy spine. If you're into sports or strength training, you might notice a real improvement in your performance. A solid pelvic floor helps make your movements more efficient and can even help prevent injuries by reinforcing your body's central core.

Getting your perineum in shape is straightforward and rewarding. With the right exercises and a few helpful tools, you'll be well on your way. Here's what to do:

Kegel exercises are a proven method for toning your perineum muscles. The idea is simple: repeatedly contract and relax your pelvic muscles.

• Find your taint muscles: To locate your perineum muscles, try stopping your urine flow mid-stream. The muscles you use to do this are the ones you want to target.
• How to do Kegels: Once you've identified the muscles, contract them for 5 seconds, then release for 5 seconds.
• Start with a set of 10 reps, three times a day. Over time, gradually increase the duration of your contractions up to 10 seconds.

These exercises can be done discreetly, whether you're sitting, standing, or lying down.

For those looking to supercharge their taint workouts, there are several sex toys that can be added to your routine.

Ben Wa balls: While traditionally used by women, some geisha balls are designed for men, allowing for more intense pelvic muscle contractions.

Stimulators: Devices specifically designed to work out your perineum muscles by sending gentle electrical pulses.

Some safety tips for sex toys:

• Choose the right product: Opt for accessories tailored to male anatomy and made from safe, hypoallergenic materials.
• Keep it clean: Always clean sex toys before and after each use with an antibacterial cleaner.
• Take it slow: Start with short sessions and gradually increase the duration and intensity of your workouts.
