5. Brisk walking

Constipation is a very common digestive tract problem. Generally speaking, regular aerobic exercise is a "panacea" for relieving constipation, such as moderate-intensity brisk walking, cycling, swimming, jogging, etc. The process of aerobic exercise helps stimulate the natural contraction of intestinal muscles, accelerate the excretion of feces, etc.

6. Pelvic floor muscle exercises

Pelvic floor muscle exercises can strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, prevent bladder and intestinal leakage, and help improve functional diarrhea, fecal incontinence, etc. When urinating, suddenly stop urinating. The muscles you feel exerting force are the pelvic floor muscles. Just repeat the "contract-relax-contract" movement.
