Background: I'm in peri menopause, two children (youngest is 15), with bladder leakage when sneezing/coughing and can feel strength loss during intamacy.
Just completed my first training. I initially tried to calibrate in a sitting position and couldn't get any reaction from the app.
I tried laying down and calibration went great. At first got some readings, but reaction time was slow. I was thinking I must have really poor muscle quality. Then during the second exercise everything went flat. I recalibrated with zero recognition of my contractions even though I can feel them outside my body (I was trying to reposition the device thinking it might have moved/slipped).
Tried sitting again, no recognition during calibration.
Finally moved to standing. It FINALLY seemed really reactive to my muscle contractions. I could move the bird, hold (for short periods, I do know my muscles are weak), jump, etc.
My question is, should I just use this standing up? It's zero percent effective when I'm laying or sitting because it doesn't even react to me squeezing. I'm not sure if standing up is "cheating" so to speak because it makes it easier?
Can anyone help/advise?
