“Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a tool out there that could make ladies’ pelvic exercises feel less like jury duty for your junk?” asks Nerve.com. It turns out there is! Part vibrator, part app, the kGoal (yes, sounds like Kegal) works to guide you through exercise routines, measure your performance, and track your progress on your way to a taut and toned vajayjay.
The kGoal just launched a Kickstarter campaign (it made it through the notoriously puritanical hoops) this week. The main section of the device is a body-safe silicone pillow that is adjustable for a variety of body types. The pillow measures the intensity of your vaginal squeezes as you flex and it also includes a small motor that provides real-time vibrational feedback during your pelvic floor routines. The accompanying app can communicate and control the USB-ready kGoal, helping to track progress and shape future work outs.
Brian Krieger, CEO of Minna Life, explained to Nerve that “broadly speaking, we expect women to use the product for improving sexual health, creating stronger pelvic floor muscles to improve sensation, orgasm quality, arousal — because of improved pelvic vascularity — and general sexual experience.” All of these benefits of Kegels have been extensively proven through clinical studies. Regular Kegel routines can take a medium-good orgasm and ramp it up to ridiculously-ridiculously-good.
What separates kGoal from its predecessors like oft-cited fitness-pleasure toys like Ben Wa Balls is that it mimics the experience of having your own personal trainer for your lady bits. “The ability to track your performance and put some data around it is really powerful,” Krieger says. “Most importantly in our eyes, it enables a much more engaging experience.” While Minna was doing research for the kGoal, they heard the common refrain: “Kegel exercises are boring.” Which is where the built-in vibrator comes in — though it’s mainly built for feedback. “This is not a trojan horse situation where kGoal is actually a vibrator. Building on what makes kGoal unique, one issue that we really wanted to address was how to convince people to do their Kegel exercises,” Krieger explains. The better you are at your Kegels, the more you’ll be rewarded.
Enthusiastic kGoal supporters have already pledged $251,000 (of a $90,000 goal) on Kickstarter, so expect to see a lot of muscly coochies in 2015.
