A Healthier Sex Life…Literally!

For some, having a healthy and active lifestyle aren’t reason enough to exercise, but what about fitness to increase your libido and improve your sex life?
Regular exercise, for obvious reasons, can give you a firmer body, which will naturally boost your confidence when you’re naked in front of your partner. Also, exercise is a natural mood enhancer and stress reducer as levels of serotonin (chemicals in your brain responsible for feelings of joy and happiness) increase during physical activity. But there’s much more to it than simply confidence and stress reduction.
Exercise can build your stamina in the bedroom. Good energetic sex needs good cardiovascular endurance to sustain it. You don’t want to damper a good thing simply because you’re winded. You can improve your cardio fitness by getting your heart rate elevated 2-3 times per week by walking, jogging or cycling. If you’re really adventurous, add climbing stairs to your routine.
Also, performing unusual sexual positions for a worthwhile amount of time can demand that you have strong muscles. Improve your muscular endurance by performing high repetitions of squats, pelvic tilts, planks and pushups. It’s better to have your muscles burn beforehand in the gym than later when you need them in the bedroom.
Finally, being flexible can give you a more limber body overall and a better range of motion to help you get in and out of positions easily without awkward pauses. Toe touches, hip/glute stretches and inner thigh stretches daily will have you limber for your bedroom endeavours.
Enjoy ALL the benefits of exercise, not just the ones your doctor will tell you about.
