This is how you should train to get hornier
Working out in a healthy way can do wonders for both body and mind. But did you know that sex can also become significantly better when you exercise? Here’s a list of unexpected benefits of exercise that you probably didn’t know about.
1. Cycling increases desire
It’s actually true - and proven by a study from the University of Texas at Austin. Thirty-five women watched a travel film followed by an erotic film on two different occasions. On one occasion, they did nothing special before watching the films; on the other, they cycled for 20 minutes beforehand. It turned out that those who had cycled beforehand were 169% more aroused by the erotic film than the others were. Pretty cool, right?
2. Get hornier by doing Kegel exercises
Regularly exercising with Kegel balls, also known as geisha balls, has an incredible number of benefits. They strengthen your pelvic floor muscles, prevent incontinence problems, and also help prevent prolapse. But another thing that happens when you train your Kegel muscles is that you can have more intense and more pleasurable orgasms!
When you strengthen your pelvic floor muscles, you also increase blood flow in the vulva and around the vagina. You gain greater control over your muscles, too, so you can use them in an even more pleasurable way when masturbating or having sex. There are even people with such good control over their Kegel muscles that they can squeeze themselves to orgasm. Isn’t that an incredibly motivating workout goal to put on the fridge?
3. Lift heavier
Strength training doesn’t just build muscle; it can also help increase testosterone levels. Generally speaking, regular exercise can keep them high, but research has shown that levels are highest approximately 48 hours after a weightlifting session. Testosterone is important for sexual desire and performance - for example, for erections and ejaculation.
So try having sex after a sweaty strength-training session next time if you want to give your sex life an extra boost.
4. Last longer
When we talk about exercise, we shouldn’t underestimate the value of endurance and fitness either. Besides being able to run longer without getting out of breath, good fitness also helps you last longer in bed. So if you want to achieve your goal of having the stamina for a whole evening in bed, it might be a good idea to go for a run around the block now and then. Trust us, it will be worth it.
