We all know that regular physical exercises have a beneficial effect on human health. With the help of training, you can throw off excess weight and keep yourself in shape. In addition, with the help of some physical exercises you can improve the quality of sexual relations.
Kegel Exercises
This complex helps to train the muscles of the pelvic floor, as well as the so-called pubic-coccyx muscle, so that partners can experience the maximum pleasure from sexual intercourse. With the help of exercises developed by Dr. Kegel, the blood supply of the genital organs improves, the muscle tone of the vagina after delivery is restored, and the pleasure that partners receive from sex is enhanced.
We strengthen the basis
Strengthen the muscles of the middle and lower back, abdomen and pelvis. These muscles play an important role in almost any movement and when it comes to sexual positions. There are many different exercises aimed at strengthening the muscles, but the most effective is the following: stand on all fours, pull up the stomach, raise and straighten the left arm and right leg so that they are on the same level with the spine and try to maintain balance in this position at least a few seconds.
Exercises for the cardiovascular system
Any training should include some form of cardiovascular or aerobic activity, carried out at a continuous, moderate pace for 20 minutes at a time. This activity increases the heart rate and strengthens the entire body, including the heart and lungs. You will be more hardy and will be able to perform not only physical exercises that require certain skills, but you can improve the quality of your sex life.

Yoga
With the help of yoga you will be able to increase flexibility. Just imagine how this can affect your intimate relationship. In addition, doing yoga will give you more strength, energy and balance.
Exercises on legs
Legs do much more than just support and provide the ability to move. From a pair of strong legs you can benefit from sex. From the standing position, make an attack, leaning on a leg bent at an angle of 90 degrees. Now slowly rise. You will feel tension in your legs, but after a couple of lessons everything will pass.
Pelvic lift
With the help of this exercise, the muscles involved during sexual intercourse are strengthened. In addition, the pelvic lifts strengthen the muscles of the buttocks and lower back. Lie down on your back, bend your knees and raise your pelvis, as if you are making a "bridge".
Swing the biceps
This exercise is two in one - beautiful hands plus sexual attraction. Strength exercises will help to increase libido - as it turned out, an important role in sexual attraction is played by the male hormone testosterone.
