6 Ways for Men to Boost Sexual Performance

Introduction

Your ability to satisfy your partner in bed is key to your sexual confidence, sex life and relationship or marriage. Considering the link between your sexual performance and your marriage, it is your duty as a man to ensure that your libido is enough to satisfy your woman.

But, sometimes, your sexual performance may be low, especially if you engage in certain unhealthy lifestyle habits that affect your sex life or struggle with some psychological or emotional issues that hinder your sex drive. Whichever the case may be, these six tips are designed to help you boost your sexual performance.

1. Be active

Rather than stay at home all day and binge-watch a movie series, why not consider engaging in cardiovascular exercises? Cardiovascular exercises have multiple benefits. In addition to boosting your energy and improving lung captivity, these exercises can increase your sexual performance.

In fact, a new study in the Journal of Sexual Medicine discovered that individuals who spent more time doing cardio exercise had lesser physical sex issues, such as erectile dysfunction for men than those who swam, biked, or ran less often.

Common cardio exercises to try out are:

• • Running
  • Bear crawls
  • Water aerobics
  • Squat jumps
  • Air jump rope
  • Jumping jacks

Dedicate at least thirty minutes each day to cardio exercises. You’d be happy with yourself when you experience the results.

2. Watch what you eat

If you want to shed fat, there are specific diets for that, right? The same applies to individuals with low libido. If you aren’t happy with your libido level, you’ll have to review your diet. Since your penis works on blood pressure, you should eat foods that can help you increase blood flow. These foods include:

Bananas: Bananas contain potassium which can help lower your blood pressure and boost your sexual performance. Other potassium-rich foods aside from bananas are potatoes, avocado, beet greens, beans, lentils, etc.

Chilies and peppers: All-natural spicy foods like chilies and peppers can help your blood flow by reducing hypertension and inflammation.

Onions and garlic: You may not fancy the idea of eating a clove of onion and garlic due to their effects on your breath. However, they boost properties that can enhance your blood circulation, making them suitable for your sexual performance.

Now that you know what to eat, what about why you shouldn’t eat? Here are some meals that are bad for your sexual performance.

• • Alcohol
  • Red meats
  • Cheese
  • Mints
  • Licorice
  • Chocolate
  • Fried foods
  • Microwave popcorn
  • Corn flakes

3. Reduce stress

Stress is bad for your health. It can play a significant role in conditions like high blood pressure, headaches, heart problems, skin conditions, depression, and low libido.

When you subject your body to stress, your heart rate increases, followed by your blood pressure. As you probably know, an increase in heart rate and blood pressure is bad for your sexual urge and performance.

Aside from physical stress, psychological stress can also affect your libido. To relieve stress and improve your sexual drive, engage in exercises like walking, stair climbing, jogging, dancing, bicycling, yoga, etc.

4. Know when to seek professional help

You can’t solve all your health problems on your own. When it feels like you’ve done your best and there are little or no results, consider seeking professional help. You may need medical treatment if you have underlying conditions like erectile dysfunction, Peyronie’s disease, etc.

On the other hand, if your low sexual performance is due to low testosterone levels, consider fast and discreet TRT treatment to boost your libido. This prompt treatment can also help increase strength, promote better sleep and weight loss.

5. Stop bad habits

Puffing at a cigarette, consuming excess alcohol may seem like the perfect way to get your mind off your worries . But, while you smoke and drink, and search for an escape from your troubles, you ruin your sexual performance in the process.

Of course, we were told that consuming a little red wine can boost circulation. However, when it becomes too much, it can be dangerous. So today, make a resolution to replace bad habits with healthy ones, like exercise and eating healthily.

6. Get some sun

Excessive sun exposure can damage your skin. However, this doesn’t mean you should always hole up in your comfy home while watching TV all day. Instead, come outside and bask in the sunlight which halts the body’s production of melatonin.

Melatonin helps us sleep, but it also plays a role in diminishing our sexual desires.The less melatonin you have, the more your sexual urge.

Conclusion

While you consider these tips, which are designed to help you improve your sexual performance, ensure you stop bad habits that may ruin your efforts.  Also, rather than go through your predicament alone, it is recommended that you speak to your spouse about what you are going through. That way, you get the necessary support you need.
