Bladder Fitness Is A Thing (And It’s Time You Tried It)

20 September 2025

When we talk about “taking care of the body,” most women immediately think of skincare, diet, or hitting the gym. But, how many of us actually think about bladder health hardly anyone.

The impact isn’t just about feeling uncomfortable. Imagine this: You’re at a wedding dinner, laughing too hard at the emcee’s jokes and oops – a little leak, or experiencing frequent urges to pee even when your bladder isn’t full.

Situations like these don’t just disrupt your day (and night), they can also mess with your confidence when you have those ‘Oops. I leaked again’ moments, and make you avoid things you actually enjoy.

That’s why bladder fitness deserves a spot in your self-care checklist. In this article, learn why bladder health matters for women, fitness tips and what to do when exercise isn’t enough.

Bladder Health Is Fitness, Too

Think of your bladder, pelvic floor, and core muscles as a team. When your pelvic foundation is weak, it doesn’t just affect posture or movement – it can show up as bladder leaks, urgency, or even make lifting weights harder. Quick test: next time you squat or lift, notice if anything is sneaking out from ‘down there’?

Signs Your Bladder Might Be Out Of Shape

Bladder issues are common, especially after childbirth, during menopause, or simply from years of ignoring pelvic health. Here are some “red flags”:

Peeing “just in case” before every outing.
Leaking a little during workouts, sneezes, or laughs.
Rushing to the toilet or waking up multiple times at night to pee.

While many women dismiss these as “just ageing,” they’re really signals that your bladder support system needs strengthening.

The Problem With “Just Do Kegels”

We’ve all heard it: “Just do Kegels.” But they’re not always the solution.

Overdoing them or doing them incorrectly can actually create tension instead of strength.
Bladder fitness is holistic – it’s not just squeezing muscles. It involves strength, coordination, breath, and awareness.

So, if Kegels alone haven’t helped, don’t be discouraged.

Building a Bladder-Friendly Fitness Routine

Here are some moves and habits that make a difference:

Glute bridges, yoga, and core activation – These strengthen both the butt and pelvic floor.
Posture and breathwork – Diaphragmatic breathing supports pelvic health from the inside out.
Breathe properly when lifting – Holding your breath while lifting weights creates pressure on your bladder. Use controlled breathing instead.

And yes, stand up often. Even small breaks from sitting improve circulation in both your butt and bladder.

What To Do When Exercise Isn’t Enough

Sometimes, workouts alone aren’t enough to fully restore strength or tone — especially after childbirth or during perimenopause. That’s where modern treatments come in.

At Premier4Her, we offer advanced women-focused solutions that complement your fitness routine, like gentle laser treatments that improve tissue strength, hydration, and tone.

How it helps with urine leakage:

Laser Vaginal Tightening is a non-surgical procedure that uses gentle laser energy to stimulate the tissues inside the vagina and surrounding muscles. When these tissues are firmer and more elastic, they provide better support for the bladder and urethra.

Weak or loose vaginal walls can allow the bladder to loose slightly, making it harder to control urine flow – especially when you cough, sneeze, laugh, or exercise.

By stimulating collagen production and improving tissue tone, the treatment helps the pelvic floor work more effectively. This means:

Reduced urine leakage during daily activities or physical movement.
Restores natural moisture – The laser encourages your tissues to retain hydration, helping with dryness that often comes with aging or hormonal changes.
Improves tissue tone – Strengthens the vaginal walls and surrounding muscles, which can support better bladder control and reduce mild urine leakage.
Improved bladder control, so sudden urges are easier to manage.
Support for mild stress incontinence, which is common after childbirth or with age.

In short, the treatment doesn’t just tighten for appearance — it restores functional support, helping women feel more confident and comfortable in everyday life.

What to expect:

The procedure is minimally invasive and usually painless.
Each session takes about 20–30 minutes.
No surgery or downtime is required; you can return to daily activities immediately.
Typically, a series of sessions is recommended for best results.

Who can benefit:

Women experiencing mild urinary incontinence.
Women noticing vaginal laxity or reduced firmness post-childbirth or during perimenopause.
Women dealing with vaginal dryness or reduced tissue elasticity.
