Peeing in the shower can improve a person's sex life, according to Gwyneth Paltrow's website.

Goop, the lifestyle website run by actress Gwyneth, features an article that recommends relieving yourself in the shower.

The author, structural integrative specialist Lauren Roxburgh, argues that the act of squatting mid-shower can help strengthen pelvic floor muscles.

It's these muscles that ultimately lead to a better sex life.

The article reads: "Try peeing in the shower squatting down. When you squat to pee as opposed to sitting up straight on the toilet, you automatically engage your pelvic floor and it naturally stretches and tones.

"Because your urethra is pointed straight down in this position all you have to do is relax for urine to flow out easily—as opposed to sitting up straight and having to strain to empty your bladder."

The article even lists a number of benefits, including the lengthening and toning of core tissues and muscles, as well as increased circulation and blood blow.

There's even a handy bit of advice on the best way of weeing.

The tip says: "It’s important to activate the muscles that you use cut your pee off mid-stream. To do this, contract, pull up, and hold.

"You should feel a tightening around your vagina, though try not to tighten your butt or upper belly muscles."

It's currently unclear whether Gwyneth practices the techniques herself.
