Most people’s self-image is reflected in how they carry themselves. Those less comfortable in their skin are less confident in their day-to-day activities. Improving body image can lead to an increase in self-confidence and add a little spice to your sex life.
Take a look at four ways exercise can empower you to own your love life.
1. Feel More Attractive
Exercise can make you feel more attractive, and feeling more attractive makes you more amorous. It can also make you more attractive in your partner’s eyes. Don’t have a partner? Visible results from exercising regularly can help draw the attention of those around you, increasing their interest in growing closer to you.
2. Increase Endurance and Stamina
Endurance is key if you want to keep going and going and going….
Working on your endurance can also help improve your cardiovascular system, reducing the risk of health conditions, such as heart disease.
3. Increase Blood-Flow
Increased blood-flow equals increased arousal. When you exercise, you activate your sympathetic nervous system, also known as the fight or flight response system and controls arousal.
For men, increased blood-flow can lower the risk of erectile dysfunction and improve their performance. Increased blood-flow in women causes an increased libido. Exercise is the best way to stimulate an increase in blood-flow and, in turn, increase your sex drive.
4. Boost Your Confidence
Exercise can make you feel more confident, and confidence is sexy.
Being self-confident can make you a more pleasant person to be around, and more attractive. If you’re happy in your own skin, you’re more likely to find the joys in the everyday life around you (and the nightly pleasures).
