You know that working out is good for your health. But did you know that hitting the gym could also help you have better sex? “Working out three to four times a week can do a lot to help your sexual technique, flexibility, and endurance,” says Pete McCall, MS, an exercise physiologist

So what types of exercise are best for better sex? McCall recommends the following five “sex exercises.”

1: Weight Lifting
Strength training could be just what the doctor ordered for your sex life. The reason: “Weight lifting causes the body to produce testosterone, which is the primary precursor for the male sex drive,” To improve your sex life, do some push-ups, sit-ups, and crunches.

2: Kegels
Doing Kegels is considered a good sex exercise for men because these exercises can help endurance and control by toning the pubococcygeus (PC) muscles — the ones that let you stop the flow of urine mid-stream.
“Men can use Kegels to delay ejaculation by contracting these muscles just before orgasm,” says McCall.

3: Yoga
Want to shake up your sex life with some new positions? Practicing yoga will give you better sex by allowing your body to get into creative positions for maximum pleasure during intercourse.
McCall recommends yoga poses that improve pelvic muscles, such as the Bow Pose, Peacock Pose (also called the Forearm or Elbow Balance), and Shoulder Stand.

4: Fast Walking

In a study of 31,000 men over age 50, Harvard researchers found that aerobic exercise resulted in a 30-percent lower risk of erectile dysfunction (ED). More specifically, according to another study, aerobic activity that burns at least 200 calories per day (equal to fast walking for two miles) can significantly lower the risk of ED.

5: Swimming
In another Harvard study of 160 male & female swimmers, swimmers in their 60s reported sex lives comparable to those in their 40s. Since sexual activity can be an act of endurance, long-distance swimming can keep you going & going like the Energizer bunny.

Nobody wants to have a reputation for being bad in bed. Fortunately, research suggests there are a few things you can avoid to make a big difference.

Match.com, one of the largest online dating services in the world, just released its annual Singles in America study, which grilled over 5,000 singles ages 18 and older on every aspect of their romantic lives. While there were a lot of fun statistics to come out of this year’s edition, one fact stood out: some of us are messing up sex.

In the survey, Match.com asked single people what their biggest red flags were during sex — the things most likely to make them say it was bad.

82 percent of singles said “too much talking” was the quickest way to get sex rated as bad, followed by “no passion” at 74 percent, “little movement” at 63 percent, and finally, being a bad kisser at 62 percent.

So what's the opposite of someone who talks too much, doesn't move, and isn't passionate? The study had some insight into what makes for good sex as well.

An overwhelming 83 percent of singles “regard a caring and enthusiastic partner” as the number one sign of good sex. The second most important indicator of good sex, the survey said, was communication, at 78 percent, and “being a good kisser” came in third at 76 percent.

All three of those factors, in fact, ranked higher than actually getting off.

It's worth noting that all of these factors are part of a whole. The data shows that ideally, to have great sex, you should be genuinely into the sex you’re having, be an open communicator (but don’t talk too much!), and make damn sure you’re a good kisser.

The fact that getting off isn't at the top of the list means that if you're nailing those parts, theres a good chance your partner will still have a good time.

And as far as the almighty O goes, we've got some tips on helping her get there, but ultimately, don’t focus on it too much.

Sex and sexuality are a part of life. Aside from reproduction, sex can be about intimacy and pleasure. Sexual activity, penile-vaginal intercourse (PVI), or masturbation, can offer many surprising benefits to all facets of your life:

-physical
-intellectual
-emotional
-psychological
-social
-Sexual health is more than avoiding diseases and unplanned pregnancies. It’s also about recognizing that sex can be an important part of your life, according to the American Sexual Health Association.

How can sex benefit your body?
This study suggests that sex can be good cardiovascular exercise in younger men and women. Though sex isn’t enough exercise on its own, it can be considered light exercise.

Some of the benefits you can get from sex include:

-lowering blood pressure
-burning calories
-increasing heart health
-strengthening muscles
-reducing your risk of heart disease, stroke, and hypertension
-increasing libido
-People with active sex lives tend to exercise more frequently and have better dietary habits than those who are less sexually active. Physical fitness may also improve sexual performance overall.

तुमचं वैवाहिक जीवन अधिक‍ ताज टवटवीत आणि सुंदर करण्‍याची तुमची इच्‍छा असेल तर मग संमोहन चिकित्‍सा करून घ्‍या. हा सल्‍ला दिला आहे, ब्रिटनच्‍या एका सेक्स तज्‍ज्ञाने. नेहमी त्‍याच-त्याच प्रकारच्‍या संभोगाने 'बोर' झालेल्‍या लोकांसाठी संमोहन चिकित्‍सेद्वारे ब्रेनवॉश करून घेतल्‍यास नात्‍यात पुन्‍हा जवळीकता येत असल्‍याचे या संशोधनात म्हटले आहे.
पति-पत्नीच्‍या वैवाहिक आयुष्‍यात पुन्‍हा रोमान्‍स भरून घेण्‍यासाठी सध्‍या ही पध्‍दत इंग्लंडमध्‍ये चांगलीच प्रचलित झाली आहे.

या संशोधनानुसार पती-पत्‍नी अनेक दिवस एकमेकांसोबत राहिल्‍यानंतर त्‍यांच्‍यात एकमेकांबद्दलच्‍या नकारात्मक बाजूंचा विचार अधिक वाढू लागतो. त्यामुळे ज्या वैशिष्‍ट्यांमुळे दोघे एकमेकांच्‍या जवळ आली ती विसरली जाण्‍याचीही शक्यता असते. अशावेळी संमोहन चिकित्‍सेच्‍या माध्‍यमातून ब्रेनवॉश केल्‍यास नकारात्मक विचार बदलता येणे शक्य होत असते.

मुंबई: पहाटेची साखरझोप म्हणजे अनेकांसाठी प्रिय. पण, हीच झोप जर कोणी मध्येच मोडली तर मात्र, भल्या पहाटेही अनेकांचा तिळपापड होतो. अगदी तुम्ही तुमच्या पार्टनरचीही झोपमोड केली तरीही त्याचा मुड ऑफ होऊ शकतो. म्हणूच पार्टनरला साखरझोपेतून हलकेसे उठवण्यासाठी वापरा ही रोमॅंटीक पद्धत. त्यासाठी खालील टीप्स तुमच्या कामी येऊ शकतात.

चूंबन
– तुमचा पार्टनर सकाळी झोपेत असताना त्याचे हलकेच एक चूंबन घ्या. यातून तूमचे प्रेम आणि काळजी घेण्याची वृत्ती पूढे येते. तुम्ही हा प्रयोग करून पहा झोपलेला पार्टनर लगेच जागा होईल. पण लक्षात ठेवा सकाळचे चंबन हे दीर्घ चूंबन नको. नाहीत पार्टनरचा मूड पून्हा बदलण्याची शक्यता नाकारता येत नाही.

‘त्या’ तीन शब्दांचा वापर
– पार्टनरच्या कानात हलकेच ‘त्या’ तीन शब्दांचा वापर करा. पार्टनर साखरझोपेत अताना त्याच्य कानात ‘आई लव्ह यू’ या शब्दांचा वापर करा. अशा वेळी आपला टोन ठिक ठेवा. अत्यंत हलक्या आवाजात तूम्हाला हे वाक्य बोलायचे आहे. (ब्रेकअप झाल्यावर लोक कसे वागतात ? घ्या जाणून )

हलकासा स्पर्श
– अत्यंत तोकड्या (?) कपड्यात तुम्ही पार्टनरच्या जवळ जा आणि त्याला अगदी बिलगून झोपा. तूमचा स्पर्श होताच पार्टनर लगेच जागा होईल. त्यानंतर हळूच बाजूला व्हा तूमचा हेतू सफल झालेला असेल.

मंजूळ गाणे
– हलक्या आवाजात पार्टनरच्या आवडीचे गाणे किंवा गाण्याची एखादी धून सुरू करा. त्या आवाजाने पार्टनरला जाग येईल.

आवडीचा नास्ता
– पार्टनरच्या आवडीचा नास्ता बनवा. जर त्याला बेडवरतीच चहा प्यायची सवय असेल तर, त्याच्या आवडीचा चहा बनवून त्याला बेडवरतीच द्या.
