Regular exercise helps to increase sexual desire because it releases testosterone, an important hormone to stimulate libido in both men and women, and hormones that relieve stress and give you a feeling of well-being.
In addition, physical activity helps to get to know the body better and tone the muscles, which increases security and self-esteem in relation to the body itself.
Here are the best exercises to stimulate life for two.
1. Kegel exercises
These exercises are very important for women because they tone the muscles of the intimate region and increase blood supply, which ends up favoring intimate contact, but in addition these same exercises combat the involuntary loss of urine and premature ejaculation.
To practice this exercise just contract the muscles of the pelvic area, as if you were sucking something with the vagina. For some people it may be easier to see how this exercise should be performed when trying to hold the pee during urination.
This contraction should be carried out for 3 to 5 seconds, 10 times in a row and at any time of the day, being able to be seated, lying down or standing. As it gets easier, you can increase the time for each contraction and also the number of repetitions.
In addition, you can also choose to practice Pompoir using Thai balls, which improves and increases sexual pleasure during intimate contact, by strengthening the pelvic floor muscles. Learn more about this technique in Pompoarism - Gymnastics that Improves Sexual Life.
2. Running and aerobic exercise
Practicing at least 40 minutes of aerobic exercise a day, such as running, cycling, walking or swimming, improves blood circulation and helps fight erection problems.
In addition, this type of activity relieves stress, which is one of the factors responsible for decreasing the production of testosterone, a hormone that increases sexual desire.
3. Strengthening of legs and glutes
In addition to shaping the legs and making the muscles more firm, strengthening the lower body helps to have more resistance when it comes to intimate intercourse to try new positions and avoid easy tiredness.
Thus, one should invest in exercises that strengthen the thigh and butt, such as squatting and sinking. See 6 examples of these exercises here.
4. Stretches
Practicing exercises that stretch the body helps to release muscle tension and stress, and give the body greater flexibility, making it easier to maintain sexual positions for longer and adapt to new positions.
In addition to promoting flexibility and relaxation, activities such as yoga and Pilates also have the advantage of strengthening and toning muscles, further assisting in the performance of intimate relationships.
5. Bodybuilding
Weight training increases testosterone, an important hormone to maintain sexual desire in both men and women. In addition, strengthening the muscles improves self-esteem and the willingness to have more lasting and more intense intimate relationships.
Thus, doing a strength training at least 4 times a week for 40 minutes will improve well-being, relieve stress and give more confidence and encouragement for intimate life.
