Kim Vopni, "The Vagina Coach" and creator of the Buff Muff Method, breaks down why the pelvic floor isn't just a Kegel muscle, it's a full system of skeletal muscle, connective tissue, and nerve supply that needs training, not just squeezing.

What we explore: - Pelvic floor anatomy: layered skeletal muscle and load-bearing function - Core breath technique: syncing breath with squats and resistance training - Tight vs. weak pelvic floor: why tension isn't strength - Bladder irritants and hydration: caffeine, alcohol, and urgency triggers - Pelvic floor physical therapy: why annual checkups matter, symptoms or not - Incontinence, prolapse, and pelvic pain: the three symptom buckets - Vaginal estrogen and pelvic floor training: combined menopause protocol

She is a certified personal trainer, a menopause support practitioner, a published author, and CEO of a global pelvic health company that is helping women ditch the incontinence pads, lift without fear and stop planning their life around the bathroom.
