A strong pelvic floor can help with tight hips, back pain, and erectile dysfunction. As a former professional athlete, I know about the importance of it. But only a few guys realize they even have a pelvic floor. Most men think that women are the only ones with a pelvic floor and that it becomes relevant to them when they give birth. Although guys may have heard about kegel exercises or Pilates to strengthen that area of the body, they don’t believe these exercises apply to them. But I have news for you. That little area between the anus and the scrotum is your pelvic floor. You need to strengthen it to improve your sexual drive, the functionality of your bladder, and your performance when you train at the gym or practice sports.So today, I have a guest that is a pelvic floor expert. She is Jana Danielson, a Pilates certified instructor, studio owner, and Amazon Best Selling Author.

Building muscle is one of the things we struggle with as we get older. This happens because we start to suffer from sarcopenia, the natural muscle loss due to aging. So if we are not consistently in the gym (or at home) engaging in resistance training or building muscle, we will lose our muscles even faster. Unfortunately, the loss of muscle leads to many illnesses and ailments. Some of them are decreased bone density, elevated risk of falls, and slower recovery times. We need to know how to build muscle the right way, which is why I created Muscle Talks and invited coach Flex Marks to this section of the podcast. Coach Flex Marks really brings a different perspective and out-of-the-box training. When he trains people, he gets them results. In this episode, Flex explains his reverse pyramid training, also known as 5/4/3/2/1 training. IT BLEW ME AWAY when I first heard about it in one of our private Facebook groups. And he’s breaking it down for you today. Get ready to understand the philosophy, principles, and programming behind this shocking training. Flex gives you tips and tricks to start implementing it immediately. Take control of your destiny, one muscle at a time.
