Your definitive guide to a better sex life…
20 Facts to Keep You In The Know
It's certainly true to say that the fitter you are, the better your sex drive, and needless to say your sex life!! An increase in exercise, to an average of 45 minutes, 3 times each week will increase in the release of the mood elevating beta endorphines, which will increase sexual desire. You'll soon find that every system in the body works better when you're fit and in good shape. Every sense being amplified, enhancing sensitivity, making every touch more enjoyable.
Can I Exercise Too Much?
Exercise will enhance you're overall sex life. Dr. Schindfield, a Philadelphia
endorocrinologist, suggests an average amount of exercise. That is running
fewer than 30 miles a week, cycling under 300 miles a week, unless you
plan to exceed that amount you should be just fine. Exercising at a
moderate intensity should rev-up the passion. Releasing those vitally
important beta endorphines happens as early as ten
minutes into an exercise routine for some, leaving others of us waiting
up to an hour for our natural release! The harder you train the longer
the positive rush will last, this could be as long as three hours. But
remember, spending all day in the gym, worrying constantly about how
you're body looks is not the answer. Finding that perfect balance is
what you should be aiming to achieve. Spending more time with your partner,
increasing intimacy and therefore a better sex life!!
Relax For Pleasure….
Making sure you are both relaxed prior to intercourse help tremendously,
encouraging better stimulation. Both of you will enjoy the experience
a lot more if you take time, relax, let the moment take hold, encouraging
your sexual energy to take over.
His Top Training Tip
Guys should practice training their puboccoygeous muscle, the one you
would normally use to stop the flow of urine! This will increase ejaculation
control and increase sexual pleasure. Unfortunately not many men walk
around flexing their penis. To train this muscle men should try to stop
the flow of urine mid flow!!
Her Ultimate Pleasure!
Ladies should be concentrating on their magic pelvic floor muscle, yes
that very same muscle that contracts during orgasms'. Doing Kegal vaginal
squeeze exercises which will strengthen your puboccygeous muscle are
a must. Training this muscle will give
greater control, and enjoyment!! Squeeze and hold for ten seconds, aiming
at repeating up to ten times, daily if possible!!
Sexual Intake & Men?
Studies have shown that the quality of the food we consume can affect
our sexual performance. One study by James R. White, M.D, for the UCSD
study on men, found that a high quantity of "bad" cholesterol
"reduced male sexual desire". This in turn causing "a
low blood supply" to vital areas! Increasing exercise and decreasing
fat intake lowered their ratio of "bad" to "good"
cholesterol, causing increased blood flow, and there for the possibility
of them maintaining an erection for longer periods, says Dr. White.
Worrying about appearance ?
According to the survey by Arena, women are twice as likely to get turned
on by watching the opposite sex exercising. They are also more likely
than men to worry about their physical appearance.
Forget the size, it's how you use it !
A new metal-stringed device that can stretch the penis by two inches
could cause nerve damage, German doctors have warned! But does size
matter?
Impotence gel....
A gel that stimulates an erection when rubbed on the penis could provide
new hope for impotent men. The gel is being tested on 75 impotent men
and results are expected by the end of next year (97).
Smell of sexual success
It's not how you look that counts in the mating game but how you smell.
According to new research, body odours affect the way men and women
react to each other even
when they are not consciously registered. Smelling good is looking good
!
FengShui Sex
Honeymooners are advised to make sure the bathroom door does not open
towards the bed, and the TV set does not face them directly if they
are to have a fulfilling sex life.
Curry flavoured condoms
Couples looking to spice up their love life can now turn to curry flavoured
condoms, possibly the ultimate appetiser for those sexually safe nights
!
Not so safe sex.
An urgent review into the safety of spermicide widely used in condoms

admitted that it is now examining effects of nonoxinal 9.
Not tonight....
It's said that guys are more likely to suffer headaches when they make
love. There are two types of headaches- one a dull migraine occurs as
partners become sexually excited and the other is a more throbbing pain
which occurs at the point of Sexual climax.
Sexy food to woo your love.

of coffee instead of traditional aphrodisiacs says the author of The
Better Sex Diet Lynne Fisher.
Get the message, give us the facts.
A teenage poll found they need to know more about AIDS, safe sex safe
sex and the consequences of pregnancy "We need to do a better job
of explaining how you can negotiate sexual relations. Boys learn that
sex is not a sport." Said researcher Matt James - he's got the
right idea.
Coming Too Soon?
There are certain things that a couple can do to avoid him ejaculating
prematurely which include 'signalling' when his orgasm is near so she
can stop wriggling/thrusting until he's calmed down. 'Distraction techniques'
can be used i.e. clenching his teeth, pinching or biting himself or
thinking of politics or work. Lastly, premature ejaculations can be
avoided by simply changing the rhythm you are moving to or pausing for
a while.
Smooth and live.
Plenty of kissing makes you live longer according to a Swedish health
expert Lars Terenius. Kissing makes the bodies neuropeptines really
move. Those so-called signalling substances affect the sells which fight
bacteria, viruses and infections.
Thrush and Oral Pleasure
A new study by a Michigan University Dr has shown strong links in women
receiving oral sex. They are 3 times at risk of catching thrush through
oral sex due to adults carrying yeast in their mouths. It is estimated
that one third of all women will suffer from thrush at some stage in
their lives.
Sexual Performance
Sexual performance is sometimes rated according to misconceived prerequisites
i.e. how readily can he get an erection; is she always "ready for
it"; how long can he keep it up; does she moisten at the drop of
a pair of trousers; how hard can he push it up; does she have multiple
orgasms?
When making love, it is far more important to enjoy mutual warmth, tenderness,
love, cuddles, companionship and laughter that to worry about standards
of performance.
Body Language
Can You Tell If Someone Is Attracted To You In The Gym?
Check out the body language, it can reveal all! Do they:
" Make frequent eye contact, do their pupils dilate?
" Constantly check to see if you are reacting to them?
" Workout directly opposite and move around as you do around the
gym?
" Walk in your direction or brush past or near you giving off a
whiff of their fresh sweat?
" Lean towards you as you speak especially if you are on a machine?
" Touch you, giving the excuse that your body alignment is wrong?
" Maybe they stroke their legs with their hands when resting?
" Suggest a meeting in the bar?
Unwanted Attention!
Too much attention from an unwanted admirer who won't get the message
is a real pain and can even ruin your workout. Check out your kit girls,
if your wearing bike shorts and a bra top baring a bare midriff, what
do you expect…. Cover up!
Likewise for the guys, hide your muscles! When your unwanted admirer
talks to you fold your arms across your chest, or clasp your hands in
your lap as though you were covering your genitals! Keep conversation
polite, brief and cool1!
For the girls….
If your being continually pursued, seek out a training partner who will
train along side you, preferably a beefy muscular friend. Failing that
a close friend with whom you can be totally engrossed. Think about wearing
a personal stereo, that gives the simple message that you're there to
train! This should be sufficient to ward off an unwanted admirer, if
all else fails change your workout times, or seek help from a member
of staff.
