Are squats good for the prostate?

As men age, the probability of developing prostate disease increases greatly, so men at this age should do more exercises that are good for prostate health. This is mainly because the prostate is an important organ in the male urinary system. If there is a problem with the prostate, it will affect the normal urination function of men. So is squatting good for the prostate?

Benefits of squats for the prostate

Experts point out that prostate disease is caused by prostate necrosis and hardening (also known as "fibrosis"), and blood circulation disorders in the prostate gland are one of the important factors leading to prostate necrosis and hardening.

When adult men do squats, the muscles in their perineum and pelvic region will contract and expand rhythmically. In fact, it is also a massage for the prostate gland adjacent to the perineum and pelvic muscles.

Under the "massage" of the perineum and pelvic muscles, the blood circulation of the prostate gland is promoted, thereby greatly reducing the probability of adult men experiencing prostate necrosis and hardening and various prostate diseases. For adult men who are trying it for the first time, it is best to choose a lighter weightless squat.
