Are there any workouts that men shouldn't do? (self.asklemmy)

I know this is a weird question. But I'm just wondering. Please don't kill me.

I do body weight exercises. And finding it harder to do exercises that want me to lay down on my front side. ^Because,^ ^my^ ^____^ ^is^ ^squishing^.^😮‍💨^

Also, there is a stupid stigma that exercise makes women more masculine. But are there any workouts that make a man look feminine? Like, it would be bit weird to see a BLL sized butt on a man, right?

This question came to my mind when I saw a workout plan in my app. The plans' name is "Bikini Body". I was like, "I should probably stay away from this. But what happens if I did it anyway?"

Kegels.

In men, these muscles are responsible for urinary continence, fecal continence, and ejaculation

Men absolutely can do pelvic floor exercises, and especially if they're having issues, they absolutely should.

You ever see an old guy at the urinal with a paper towel in his hand? That is a guy who needs to do kegel exercises... You ever wonder why you see paper towels in the urinal sometimes? f****** are slacking on their kegel exercises

A properly toned 60 year old should be able to hit a bird in flight from 20 paces with a direct stream of urine.

I think they are just joking. like some other guy said jelqing.

Thank you. I'll never do that in my entire life. I guess I'll have a good sexual life ahead : )
