Exercises that can help you get a flat stomach and avoid prolapsed uterus and enlarged prostate





First exercise

For the first exercise, all you need to do, is stand with your feet under the hips. Then, observe how you feet are, if they are pointing slightly outwards, then there are chances that you have issues of a prolapsed uterus or an enlarged prostrate. Standing in this posture increase the risk of collapse in your lower back.

So, make sure you stand with your toes pointing straight in the front, with heels in a straight line. Standing in this way engages your adductors and helps in maintaining a good posture. It also engages your lower back and hips in a better way. Make sure your chest is lifted up and arms extended.
