We all know that exercise has numerous benefits, which are known to be necessary for overall health. It improves memory, prevents diseases and reduces stress. Indeed, according to experts, it is the basic solution for a range of ailments. While people are familiar with the benefits of exercise to maintain good physical condition, many are aware of its importance for sexual health.
Aside from controlling body weight, exercise maintains healthy blood flow, boosts emotional health, and regular exercise provides a range of sex-enhancing mental and physical benefits. A new study by the National Institutes of Health revealed that 43% of women and 31% of men experienced sexual dysfunction as a result of obesity and lack of exercise.
Therefore, several positive sex-related benefits can be gained by contributing to regular exercise. So, here are some aspects in which daily exercise affects your sexual health.
Stimulate blood circulation
During exercise, the heart beats faster and blood circulation throughout the body is improved. It helps you to lower blood pressure, cholesterol, etc. As a result, a person’s sexual health is improved by healthy blood flow to the genitals, which enhances the orgasmic sexual experience.
Improve body image
Being sexually active can often lead to a positive body image, which can be a big factor as feelings of perceived attractiveness are linked to sexual satisfaction. By exercising you get into your desired body shape, which results in a strengthened sex drive in you and your partner.
reduce stress
We know that physical activity produces endorphins, also known as ‘happiness hormones’. These are responsible for inhibiting pain and promoting pleasure. So if you are happier it will affect your sex drive. In short, while dealing with stress, exercise will also improve your sex life.
