Here's an excercise tip that will change your life forever

Options
Here's something that will change your life forever. It might be difficult at first but after a few tries you will get the hang of it and never be able to go back to your old ways:

Always use the toilet in a sumo squat position with the seat up, without ever actually touching the toilet. Here's an example of a sumo squat:

This will help you develop your hips, core, glutes, hamstrings and quads.

You also never have to touch public toilets ever again..

You're welcome :-)

    Why can't you just go to the gym and squat?

    This saves you time and there's no risk of injury. Also when you're squatting at a gym, most people don't fully engage their core in fear of slipping a fart

    I tried this but I just peed all over the floor in front of the toilet. My wife is PISSED. Suggestions?

    NOOOOOOOOOO. This does not allow the pelvic floor muscles to relax during urination, a completely necessary function of the very intricate neurological interplay between the bladder and pelvic floor. Doing as you've suggested puts women especially at risk for short/tight/painful pelvic floor spasms. Just sit and pee/poop, leave the exercises out of the bathroom!

    No thank you. I like to sit on the throne and enjoy this relaxing time. I do my squats when I workout.

    Another benefit is having cleaner inner butt cheeks

    Women who hover over the toilet seat in public restrooms are the reason there's pee on there in the first place.

    This was a weird post / suggestion (mine about the straw wasn't, duh, I meant the OP's). Isn't squatting pretty widely recognized as beneficial? And why over the toilet? If you're injuring yourself doing body weight squats, especially sumo, maybe try walking a lot first...

    Eeeeewwww! Forget the toilet.. Just use a chair!

    If you do it a home you can fart all you want.. If you do at work and you are in a cubicle, squat at your own risk..

    This is mainly a sanitation issue. It's also great for people short on time you're burning calories and building strength why not?
