5 Easy Exercises that Guarantee You a Great Time in Bed

Physical intimacy forms an important part of married life. It helps to strengthen the bond of love and trust between the couple. But not all relationships have a smooth sailing in the bedroom. There are some intimate problems that can make your personal life tad stressful. Constant physical dissatisfaction can easily reflect in your daily activities. Such situations often lead to couples looking for ways to remedy this problem.

If you are one of those who have tried pills, therapies, counselling session, etc., but are still not quite satisfied, why not try something easier? We have five easy exercises for you, which when done regularly, can enhance your “between the sheets” moments dramatically! 

1. Kegel Exercise

One of the most recommended and popular exercises to enhance lovemaking, is the Kegel exercise. This form of exercise might seem very simple, but what it does is something huge. Kegels help strengthen the pubococcygeus (PC) muscles. These muscles support the pelvic organs, including the reproductive ones, the rectum and the bladder. With these exercises, women have reported much more satisfaction, as it tightens the vaginal muscles, especially for women who have just had a baby. For men too, these exercises help to deal with erectile dysfunction.

How to do it:

• This is a simple exercise, which you can do anywhere anytime, either sitting or lying down.
• As you inhale, contract your pelvic muscles, as if holding the urge to urinate.
• Hold for a few seconds, and slowly as you exhale, release the muscles.
• You can start with 10 to 20 squeezes a day, and work your way up to 100 to 200 squeezes every day.

2. Squats

We are sure that you know how squats work wonders to shape your butt and legs. But did you know that this rather simple, do-it-at-home exercise can give a huge boost to your libido as well? Squats enhance blood flow to the right places, and energise you with a healthy “drive”. Also, while doing this exercise, several muscles are put to work, thus building stamina as well.

How to do it:

• Stand straight with your feet shoulder-width apart.
• Keeping your back straight, bend your knees slowly. In a controlled manner, gradually lower yourself down. While you go lower, stretch your hands straight in front of you.
• Keep the weight steady on your feet and upper thighs, and not on your knees. Pretend sitting on an imaginary chair.
• Try to maintain this position for 8-10 breaths.
• Slowly come back to the original standing position.
• You can hold light weights in your hands to make it more intensive. 

3. Pelvic Lifts

Here is a move that will not only boost blood flow to enhance your performance, but also strengthen the muscles that are most involved during the act. It helps make the core muscles and the lower back strong.

How to do it:

• Lie down on your back, with knees bent and feet on the ground, shoulder-width apart.
• Gradually lift your pelvic region, keeping your hands by your sides.
• Hold your abdominal muscles and tighten the glutes. Lift yourself higher, with shoulders firm.
• Hold the posture for 5-10 seconds.
• Slowly get back to the lying down position.

4. Bicep Curls

You might wonder how working out your arms can boost your act in the bedroom. But here is the surprise- apart from toning up your arms, this strength exercise releases testosterones, which is a major hormone responsible to enhance the “desire and drive”.

How to do it:

• Take a pair of weights, one in each hand.
• Slowly lift your arm, bending at the elbow and curling up.
• Repeat 15 times, without giving any jerks and breathing steadily. 

5. Aerobic exercises (done together)

There have been numerous studies to show that when couples workout together, their physical bonding increases, and lovemaking improves drastically. The best way to make the most of your fitness routine is by doing some form of aerobic activity together. Running, cycling, jogging, swimming or dancing, are great options.

Aerobic activity helps to boost testosterone, especially in the middle-age when the hormone declines. And, as we mentioned before, testosterone is very important when it comes to making love. That apart, aerobic exercises also help you stay in perfect shape, which again, is something that can increase the desire to get intimate.
