7 Ways Working Out Makes You Better In Bed
By Susan Jacobs
Okay, okay: You may not love working out, but it has obvious benefits. You get to feel better, look better, and feel sexier. Workouts with a trainer translate into workouts in the bedroom with a partner. For example:
1. You keep going, and going, and going.
The more you work out, the longer you last. No more gasping for air after a few “pumps.” You can go for hours and enjoy it.
2. You aren’t a quitter.
You’ve stuck with your FitStrong Fitness plan and gym routine for months now, and backing down is no longer an option. Happily, the same rules apply to the bedroom—you won’t stop until you (and your partner) see results.
3. You can lift so much weight.
Handstands? Done. Rough sex? No problem. Changing positions again, and again? Let’s go! Thanks Crossfit — why, yes, I do lift!
4. You can put your legs where?
Ladies, you’re flexible. Those yoga classes do come in handy; in fact, your boyfriend recently started paying for your classes because he felt the full benefit.
5. Your abs! They’re…well, lickable.
A solid stomach is sexy, plain and simple. No one wants to bump bellies while doing
the deed.
6. Your pain tolerance is unbeatable.
BDSM enthusiasts can relate: You’re used to feeling a little pain — even enjoying it — after one too many repetitions the day or two after a successful workout. Now you can definitely take a little more exquisite agony in the bedroom.
7. You like to sweat.
Thankfully you don’t stop just because things are getting too hot and heavy. You’re always ready to tough it out no matter what physical feats are required of you. And oh, yes, this is also true when you workout.
Gym goers and fitness buffs, keep doing what you do best. Whether you’re dating a fellow gym junkie or not, your partner will appreciate your tenacity. Keep up the good work!
