Sex and Fitness?
Written by Jennifer Cassetty
Many are over-worked, over-stressed and over-eating on a daily basis. These factors lead to tired and generally unhealthy individuals who become too lazy for one of the best activities most teenagers crave - having sex. With these bad food choices and inactivity in our lives, is it any mystery why several choose to close their eyes and sleep when the lights turn down low?
Instead of falling asleep or reaching for the next cupcake, you should take your man (or woman) by his head and gently push him toward the bed and embrace yourself for a fun night. This scenario is the options most would select, however, do you really have the energy for this activity past the age of 25 with the lifestyle many choose to live? What’s the solution? Try exercising more everyday and eating better by substituting unhealthy snacks for fruits and veggies that will provide more “energy” in your body.
Studies have indicated that exercising with the right routines can ignite your senses, fill you with ripples of pleasure and awaken a new dimension of feeling for your partner. In addition to improving sex, exercising is often one of the most important and overlooked components of a rewarding relationship. So get to it and include more fitness routines to your daily activity before you jump on your partner to ensure for a long and exciting night.
When our bodies are healthy, they tend to be able to “go with the flow” throughout the day and not become overly stressed and tired. With more energy and a better outlook emotionally, individuals will have a desire to engage in a healthy and intimate relationship and generally will be more open to try new things with their partner just to spend time with them.
Exercising doesn’t require extraordinary skill, nor is it limited to young couples in the throes of passion. Couples of all ages can cultivate their relationship with fitness. Try some of the moves I listed and see how your sexual performance changes. I’m sure you’ll do more than just shut your eyes next time you and your love
are in bed.
