You’ll get out of the course with a masters degree in pelvic floor anatomy.

Not quite, but you’ll know enough of the anatomy, nutrition, and lifestyle factors affecting your pelvic floor and causing your symptoms, and you’ll understand why this is happening, how we are going to solve it, and what you need to do to prevent this from ever coming back.

If you are thinking...

“Who cares about why this is happening? Just tell me how to solve it!”

I’ll tell you this:

Most of them have gone through years of doctors, tens of different tests, and more medications than they can remember, and nothing has worked.

No one can tell them what’s going on.

Making them believe there’s no help for them, they are forever broken.

Or they have some weird, uncommon, and undiagnosed bacterial infection even after they’ve had more negative tests than they can count.

“After all this time, nothing has worked, there's something wrong with me for sure.”

“I have something that they can’t detect.”

”I won’t ever get better.”

But that’s not the case.

There's nothing wrong with them and there’s no unidentified tropical bacterial infection.

They simply don’t understand what’s going on because no one has explained it to them, and here’s where education becomes critical.

Because once they understand what’s going on it’s easier for them to understand how we are going to solve this, and how the things I’m telling them to do will help to get rid of their symptoms.

They can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.

But even if that’s not your story, even if you’ve had this for a couple of months...

There’s another reason why knowing how your pelvic floor works is so critical:

You’ll get rid of it now AND prevent this from happening again in the future.

Can you imagine getting your sexual health and life back now but deal with this again a couple of years down the line?

Understanding how your pelvic floor works and all the ways your actions and lifestyle affect it, is your insurance to live free of this forever.

I will give you the things you should and shouldn’t do to keep this from ever coming back.

You won’t have to blindly follow bad advice that doesn't make sense and produces no results because now you understand the anatomy and the science.

Knowing this gives you control over your symptoms, now and in the future.

And if for whatever reason it happens to you again, you know why this is happening and you have a roadmap to solve it.

“Oh, lately this and that has happened and Chad said that those things can affect my pelvic floor, so let’s not freak out, I’ll just do the things he told me to do and problem solved.”

And I’ll tell you all about it inside the protocol:

• How your feet, knees, and thighs are causing your pelvic floor problems.
  
• A simple tip that it's hard to implement but it can make your whole life healthier, easier, and your recovery faster and more enjoyable.
  

This is not strictly related to pelvic floor health, but I've found that some of my patients follow this after dealing with this to make sure that they live a healthier life in general, and highly recommend you try it.

• Why "I'm getting older" it's not an excuse or a reason for your symptoms unless you are 104 years old.

I have a lot of my patients telling me in my first consult:

"I'm over 40 now so some of it it's clearly because I'm getting older."
Wrong.

You are not doomed to have this at 40, 50, or 60.

It's not because of old age, it's because of dysfunction caused by bad "maintenance" of your pelvic floor (and surrounding) muscles.

Eliminate the dysfunction and do the right maintenance, and you don't have to suffer from this now or in the future until you are in your 90s.

And in the second week of the course I explain to you why and show you how.

• 2 drinks that are irritating your bladder and urethra and causing you to go too much and have pain and burning sensation when urinating. 

For the best results, you should avoid these 2 drinks for at least these 12 weeks. I'm not going to get mad at you if you don't, but eliminating them from your life at the moment, will only help you get better, faster.

And once you feel better, you can always reintroduce them later, always with moderation.

• The 1 thing you should absolutely stop eating and the 1 thing absolutely should eat more of. — I won't get super-dogmatic here nor will I give you 30 recipes and a grocery list, but it's critical that
  you follow these nutritional guidelines to heal faster. 
• A simple thing you can do anytime you pee to eliminate leakage and dribbling for good.

I have a quick story for this one.

A close friend of mine called me one day out of the blue, super worried, and said to me,

"I think I might have cancer."

Obviously, I was super worried myself.

"Why do you say that? What happened?"

Turns out that morning he peed after waking up and while he was brushing his teeth, more pee came out.

I asked him how much and he told me:

"I don't know, about 15 drops or so."

He didn't have cancer.

What he had is a way-too-common thing called "Post micturition dribble," which is basically when you pee a little bit after you finish.

Once and I explained to him the anatomy of the urinary system, why this was happening, and told him this little trick, he literally called me the next day and said:

"Man, you saved my life."

I totally get his reaction, it’s too common for us guys (even me as a PT) to think we have something deadly or the world is ending when something goes less than perfect down there.

Which is also why I love this "trick" because it not only works wonders, but it also eliminates a lot of the worry and stress of urinating.

It's literally something that you have to do every time you are done peeing and you can forget about:

• Leftovers and having to go 5 minutes after finishing
• Taking too long to pee
• Leaking and having pee drops on your pants
• The tug of war that's going on between your hips and pelvic floor and the way that's causing your
  pain, ED, and urinary symptoms. 
• What you need to know about the hormones and chemicals that your own muscle and fat
  release in your body that's helping (or hurting) your health and recovery. 
• How your gut microbiome is helping or hurting your recovery. 
• The #1 exercise you must never, ever do when you have a hypertonic pelvic floor.

Let's pause here for a second.

I can't tell you how many times a new patient comes through my door and tells me all proud that he's been doing some exercises, but still nothing's working.

At that time, my heart sinks, because I know that he (trying to get better) has only made things worse.

Which I understand because if you've been dealing with this for 3 years, you've gone to 5 doctors, and none of them give you any answers to your and you are not feeling any better...

It's only natural that you look for your own answers.

But that comes with a price:

Now the treatment is going to be more difficult and last much longer.

I've seen this many more times than I would like.

People try to self-treat themselves, they look up things to do on Google, practice Youtube exercises, and follow recommendations from strangers on Reddit or any other forum without any qualification.

Or even worse, they can't find anything related to men's pelvic floor and they use a routine of exercises for women's pelvic floor!

Making things worse without them even knowing, sometimes permanently worse.

And they try this thing and that thing for weeks sometimes even months and since things don't get better, or they get way worse, they get depressed and start thinking that there's truly no hope for them.

When in reality there's nothing wrong with them, they've just been doing the wrong things all along.

And this exercise is the #1 thing people do that's harming them to the point of causing some of their symptoms.

The reason so many people do it is because it is actually helpful for some people in some cases.

But if you are doing it while having a hypertonic pelvic floor you are only shooting yourself in the foot.

In the protocol, I tell you what it is and explain the anatomy so you understand why it is so bad, when it can be good, and what you should do now instead.

If you’ve been to countless doctors and specialists.

And taken countless pills and antibiotics for months or years.

But still nothing has worked.

This is what you should’ve been doing from the very beginning.

Not pills, not surgery, not antibiotics, this is the “treatment” that would’ve prevented all the time spent between doctors and medications without any result.

You can’t go back and change it, but you can use it now to get rid of your symptoms once and for all.

It’s a set of stretches 100% focused on relaxing your pelvic floor muscles and a couple of exercises focused on strengthening the surrounding musculature of your pelvis to prevent imbalances, and overcompensation (like hypertonic pelvic floor.)

The great thing about these exercises is that they increase in difficulty over the weeks to make sure that you are progressing and your recovery never stagnates.

The other reason why you start with a few simple exercises and build up your routine over time, is so you can dedicate the time to do the exercises without making any extreme changes in your routine from one day to another.

You won't go from doing nothing to doing 20 different exercises that you can't even find time for in your daily routine.

And you won't have to learn how to perform a bunch of new and different exercises all at once.

You start with the first, most basic, and simplest exercise. You master that, see some improvement, and next week you incorporate another one and repeat the process.

And that's what you have to do for 12 weeks straight.

Some of them will be a little bit challenging at first but that's okay, I give you multiple ways to adapt the exercises to your current skill level.

You can start with the easiest version of the exercise and once you get better at it, you can do it at its full capacity.

And to make the implementation easy:

I explain the exercises in detail and you get 1 video per exercise in which one of my physios (who works with me in my clinic) is performing the exercises

The videos for each exercise are between 1-3 minutes so you can watch them multiple times or pause the video if you feel like one part it's a bit more difficult.

Here are some of the exercises:

• An exercise that’s so simple, all you have to do is lay down, but in a very specific way. This opens your abdominal cavity and your diaphragm, all the way down to your pelvic floor signaling your muscles to relax.
   
• Another exercise that will teach you how to move your pelvis (almost) like a professional salsa dancer.

When we have a pelvis that’s too tight, rigid, locked up, and can’t move the muscles and the tissues surrounding that pelvis are also tight and rigid, and that goes double for your pelvic floor.

This move will loosen up the muscles and increase the mobility of your pelvis so you can start experiencing some relief from your symptoms.

• This is one of the most effective stretches you can do to loosen up to hypertight pelvic floor muscles and all you have to do is “hugh” yourself. 
• Remember the tug of war happening in your pelvis that we talked about in the anatomy module? This exercise is specifically designed to get rid of that and loosen up your pelvic floor muscles 

• If you sit too much, I guarantee this muscle is very tight, and it’s causing a lot of tension in your pelvic floor (and responsible for your) and that’s besides all the problems it can cause in the rest of your pelvis and lower back

• Unless you’ve been walking barefoot for most of your life, the muscles in your feet are probably dormant, and you should know by now (we talked about it in the anatomy section) how your foot changes your knee, which changes your thigh, which changes your pelvis, which causes all your problems. To fix this, we start literally from the bottom, with your feet. 

• This stretch is very similar to one exercise used to grow your glutes and legs, we modify it a little bit to stretch from the back of your head, all the way down to your foot and ankle. 

• In the beginning of this module I say that some exercises will make you remember me, well, this will probably make you hate me. Trust me, you are going to feel the stretch, but if you do it right, it’s one of the best exercises you can do to speed up your recovery 

• In week 6 there are no new exercises, but we get all the exercises you’ve learned up to this point and put them in a morning routine in a very specific order to maximize the speed and degree of recovery.

• 2 bird poses to stretch your pelvic floor muscles — One of them is a little bit challenging and will make you feel as if you are an actor from Cirque Du Soleil.

• One exercise that you need to do to strengthen the muscles, balance out all the forces acting on your pelvis, and get rid of the imbalances that are causing your pelvic floor tightness and symptoms

• A hard exercise that will make your legs shake like there’s an earthquake going on — You don’t have to do it perfectly at first, and it’s better that you do it only once you are prepared for it. But once you are, it’s one of the best things you can do to gain your life back. 

• The ultimate 4-exercise routine to keep you going once you are finished with the program — you can adapt the exercises to your ability and where you’re at right now.

Congratulations, you’ve done it.

You’ve finished the program.

Now you have stronger erections (or erections at all.)

You don’t wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.

You don’t have to spend 15 minutes to pee just to go back 5 minutes later.

Whatever it is the result you wanted, you should be there or pretty close.

If you’ve been dealing with this for years, it’s possible that you are not completely done after these 3 months.

But that doesn’t mean there’s no room for improvement, it just will take a bit longer.

The good news is that, first of all:

Now you have the knowledge about anatomy, nutrition, lifestyle, exercise, and stress management (which will talk about next) to continue with your journey and not make things worse or do a bunch of things for months or years without seeing improvement in your symptoms.

There’s no need for you to blindly follow advice that gives you no results.

Now you understand what’s going on and the reason why everything happened and nothing was working before. You understand what’s happening to you, and for that, you have control over it.

You can work and improve it, and you can get even better.

And you can prevent this from ever coming back or becoming something that’s crippling you and taking your life away from you.

The other good news is that I will also give you the routine you have to do from now on to keep seeing improvement. To keep getting better.

This is a moment I know too well with some of my patients:

All you really need to do now is these exercises at home. I can keep seeing you if you want to, and you know where to find me if you need me.

But at this point, all you have to do is:

Keep following the principles in terms of lifestyle, nutrition, and stress management.

And do these exercises at home.

You are at that exact same point now.

And all you have to do is follow this routine at home to keep getting better.

But before you leave, let’s talk about how stress is making it impossible for you to get better.

For some guys it’s the root cause, for others it’s just part of the cause, and for others it came later.

But for everyone, stress and anxiety are hurting their pelvic floor muscles, and you are not the exception.

Stress tenses up your muscles, it squeezes them together.

And when you have a hypertonic (hypertight) pelvic floor, more tightness is not a good thing.

Now, most people when I talk to them about stress management, breathing, meditation, mindset, or productivity...

Roll their eyes back.

If that's you, listen closely:

A lot of my patients are in a constant state of helplessness, anxiety, and fear.

Feeling like they have no control over their bodies and things will never get better.

They believe they will never have a normal erection again, or they will always be in pain, or they'll always have to spend 15 minutes locked up in the bathroom to pee.

Always wondering why this is even happening.

It occupies their minds all day causing more stress and tension on their pelvic floor muscles.

(Which I understand because this is something that almost steal your life, you can’t “not think about it,” especially if you’ve been dealing with this for years and no one can give you a reason why this is happening.)

And that's beside the "everyday stressors" like work, problems with their partners, poor sleep habits, etc.

It's true that not being stressed is impossible in today's busy life.

But managing stress, all the emotions that come with pelvic floor dysfunction, and work overload efficiently to recover faster IS possible.

And inside this protocol I'll show you multiple ways to do it:

• How you should stand to recover faster. 

• The “relaxation” nerve that goes from your brain all the way down to your abdomen and once stimulated, it signals all your body (including your pelvic floor muscles) to relax. Here’s how to stimulate it.

• The stupid-simple, not-sexy-at-all, productivity “hack” to get things done and feel less stressed about work, life, and all the things on your to-do list. 

I’ve noticed over the years that the men I was treating were always stressed out with their work, they were always running late, always falling behind.

Their lives seemed a little bit out of control.

They could never get done everything they needed to get done.

So I shared with my patients this productivity hack because I knew any of them could do it.

And when my patients felt that they had more control over their lives (meeting deadlines, feeling productive, and doing everything they had to) their stress decreased and their recoveries were happening faster.

Now, I'm not a productivity guru and there’s nothing fancy about this.

In fact, it’s so simple that you can barely call it a “hack.”

But this is something I use to this day to stay productive managing my 7-figure clinic, all the talks I do, preparing for triathlons, and still have a life.

And hundreds of my patients have used this to be more productive, less stressed, and recover faster.

• The science behind why belly breathing works and how to do it effectively to reduce stress and the tension in your pelvic floor muscles.

• What you should do if motivation starts to fade and you catch yourself thinking “Why am I even doing this?” 

The truth is that this is a protocol that’s, at the very least, 3 months long.

And it’s also true that it won’t be 100% smooth, things won’t go all the time as expected, some weeks will be better than others.

Everyone’s journey is different.

Some people see a slow and steady improvement week after week.

Others see a big improvement the first few weeks and then it’s a bit more gradual.

I’ve had patients that the first few weeks see little improvement and then, after all the cumulative work, one week they see massive results and things speed up from there.

And because of the ups and downs, motivation can fade along the way, so here’s a powerful technique I’ve been using with all my patients to keep them going and finish the protocol.

• One thing I learned from reading “Atomic Habits” that can help you calm down and reduce stress and anxiety almost instantly.

• The neurochemical reason why counting your small wins and achievements will lead you to a faster recovery and the big win you are looking for.

• The power moves technique that you must do at night, right before bed to show you that you are making progress, keep you motivated, and make you jump out of bed next morning to face your day and keep doing your pelvic floor routine. 

• The 5-5-5 breathing technique to make meditation as easy as… well, as breathing. 

No, I’m not going to ask you to go into a monastery, shave your head, and have deep thoughts about the nature of the cosmos.

And no, this is not a comprehensive course on meditation where by the end you’ll be able to keep your mind blank for 60 minutes.

But if you can do this even 5-10 minutes a day, you’ll see how your stress starts to soothe away.

Your body relaxes and your pelvic floor muscles relax too.

Reducing the pain, the constriction over the urethra when you urinate, and over your blood vessels that prevent you from having an erection.

When I started to introduce this into my patients’ protocol, the results were outstanding, which goes to show how important managing stress and taking your time to relax is for your recovery.

If you overlook this part, getting better will be like pushing your car uphill, slow, painful, and you run the risk of running out of energy and the car going downhill, making you start the process from 0 once again.

All the details on how to do it correctly are in week 4.

• One thing that every successful person you know has (athletes, entrepreneurs, high-achievers) and that all my patients had at some point before their recovery. 

• How to make everything you have to do in this protocol automatic and effortless for the whole 3 months and beyond. 

• The morning ritual I used for myself and my patients to put together the things we’ve learned so far and make sure that you are taking the time to manage stress for optimal recovery. 

• My favorite party trick to eliminate the “I’m helpless” mentality that’s only causing anxiety and making recovery even harder. 

“Things are never going to get better.”

“I’ve been to so many specialists and none of them have helped me.”

“I can’t be helped, I’m broken, there’s no hope for me.”

“There’s no way I’ll get out of this rut.”

“I guess this is just how my life is.”

All of that negative self-talk is not helping.

In fact, it’s only stressing you more, provoking more anxiety, and keeping you from pushing through this.

I understand that (especially if you’ve been dealing with this for years) it’s really hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

It sounds too good to be true.

I’ve been there.

But I got out of it.

And I’ve helped hundreds of men get out of it too.

So I’m telling you that you will get better.

But I also know that sometimes during the process things can get a bit rough.

So in week 3, I show you what to do if you catch yourself in the negative self-talk loop.
