    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

    Yeahhh . . . . no.

    Doubtful on all accounts.

    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...

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

    You're not really burning calories when you squat to pee. Sorry. If you were then I'd weigh nothing with all the times I run to the bathroom.

    And why would I feel the need to squat over my own toilet which I know is clean?

    Ha! I have no such fear. I love breaking the silence in the weight room :)

    EXACTLY! My favorite are the "ladies" who put down the paper cover, then pee all over it and the seat and then leave it. Chicks are just as disgusting as men, believe it.

    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!

    A message from your friendly neighborhood Women's Health Physical Therapist

    Oh snap, is that really true? I squat over the toilet ALL THE TIME. It has nothing to do with exercise (though I often wonder if I have stronger legs muscles because of it!), but more because I prefer not to sit on public toilets. I don't squat over my own. I also hike and camp a lot, and, well, it's tough to sit on something out in the woods...

    Ok ok, you're right, but what if someone else peed on it first?? I don't want to wipe it up, and I'm not sitting on it. So I also squat. I do realize that I'm continuing the cycle, but if I go in and it's clean, I don't squat. So that makes it ok? :)

    I recommend eating out of a dog bowl on the floor. Each pushup earns you a bite.

    Then you go do your toilet squats.

    I also have the shower head installed 9 feet high, over a pullup bar. You have to do a pullup to get your hair wet.

    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 :-)

    I assume you get exercise with the Mop afterwards as well. So you get a cardio workout as well. Genius

    Here's another tip that I already regret posting: Try to *kitten* while doing an exaggerated yoga cow pose. I'm not gay but I swear it feels 10 times better!
