A member asked:

Would riding a bike while standing cause waste to reach my sigmoid colon, even if i went to the loo and pooped out as much as i could beforehand?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No difference: None of these different activities would make a difference since there is only one way for waste to be eliminated...
