They say it takes three weeks for something to become habit. As many men can attest, it probably takes a little longer for regular exercise to become habitual. While we all know that staying active can slim your waistline, many aren’t aware that regular exercise can improve your erections, too.
The reason for this is simple: Getting into shape helps your internal organs to work more effectively. When your heart isn’t being slowed by fat, it can pump blood easily. When your lungs aren’t struggling to keep up, they can take in more oxygen that can then help to fuel your body. When combined, these organs can help make it easier for your body to achieve an erection. When you’re able to achieve an erection, you’ll also be able to perform better in the bedroom. This means that your penis stays happy, your penis stays happy, and your partner stays happy.
But gettin physical can be difficult. Experts agree that, when it comes to trying to get active, it’s all about baby steps. For the first week, try walking a mile every day. When that becomes easier, try running a mile next week. From there, step it up to two miles the week after. While cardio is great for the body, experts also suggest sit ups, push ups, and crunches as a crucial part of any effective work out plan.
As you get active and you begin to see the pounds fall off, you should see a noticeable improvement in the strength and quality of your erections. But don’t get content; if you don’t stay active, you run the risk of gaining those pounds back and putting your erection at risk again. Stay physical, and your erection should stay happy.
