What is the relationship between strenth training and sex drive?

I think that virtually everything is related to each other, when it comes to our physical and emotional connections. I tell my choir students that living a healthy and strong lifestyle builds a stronger vocal instument - and it does. Strength training is good for practically everything (if done correctly, with a trainer initially) It builds and maintains sexual desire; it builds self-confidence and esteem (which is certainly related to good sexual expression) since it has the potential to dramatically alter one's body shape; and it even builds cardiovascular strength and endurance. All of this is beneficial to one's sex life.

Try to find things other than sex to work on...put your mind off sex. While you're obviously still going to have a high sex drive, it will help if you don't constantly think about it.

Having a sex drive and being turned on are normal parts of sexuality. People have different levels of sex drives — some have higher drives and some have lower. Counselors consider a person to be having "too much sex" if their sex life interferes with the daily activities of their lives — getting to school, to work, meeting friends, etc. Not many people have that problem.

Uhm, sorry but you're wrong. After menopause, they regain sex drive, but many are in commited relationships and their men have no sex drive or are unable to perform.

diabetes in general affects the sex life of the person and therefore ones sex drive is likely to be affected as it actually lowers the sex urge. you can get it back but it depends on the extent of ones dependency on the rectifier drugs. if you can workout by purely restricted diet, it should come back. this is out of experience

Vitamins will not increase your sex drive.\n\nNor will those over-the-counter sex stimulants, like Horny Goat Weed, All-Nite Long . . . Don't buy them, they are all scams. \n\nHave you had any serious injuries or surgeries? These can affect your sex drive.\n\nLately, have you been depressed over some other thing going on in your life? Job woes, family problems, marital issues. . . ?\n\nIf you can't visit a doctor, then here is some advice:\n\nfind a way to relieve stress. Exercise is the number one means of reducing stress and increasing your sex drive. This doesn't have to be hardcore exercise, but a brisk 30 min walk everyday, or playing touch football or a pick up game of basketball. If you can make it to the gym, do some treadmill, elliptical running, and stationary cycling.\n\nNext is nutrition. Fried and high-fat foods reduce sex drive. Fresh fruits and vegetables reinvigorate you. If you can eat some whole grains, like brown rice or 12-grain bread, then the B-Complex that is included in those grain products will stimulate your central nervous system. Give it a go.\n\nThis is not an overnight cure. Give yourself some time to honestly question why your sex drive is reduced. Do try the above activities and if your sex drive is not improved after a few months, then a visit to your doctor is in order.

This is not always true. But to answer your question there is a Biological basis for the high sex drive exhibited by  a lot of males (esp. younger males). This is explained by "survival of the fittest" theory. The stronger males in nature are driven to compete for 'mating' rights, thus ensuring that the stronger male genes are passed on. The more 'qualifying' (meaning compatible, healthy etc) females that this type of male can mate with, ensures that he has the best possible chance of securing his geneology for future generations. It has been proven, that a males sex drive will increase substancially when presented with 'many' suitible mates, compared to if he is only 'offered' 1 mate. Hense why the temptation is very strong for men to 'cheat'. The only thing that prevents, or curbs this instinct, is integrity,maturity and commitment to the woman/girl who he feels the strongest about.  Hope that helps

Funny you should ask..lol...that's an issue I'm trying to work out with my boyfriend right now.  He says I want it too much (I want it every day!)  When he makes jokes that my sex drive is too high, it kind of makes me feel bad, like he doesn't want to have sex with me as much as I want to with him.  Some days I want it two or three times, but he says he's tired :(  We're both the same age, so I don't know what the problem is!

I think its based on libido and lifestyle...   It can be very important to some and not to others.

I think sex drive does increase with age to some extent, however, I feel that lifestyle also plays a huge part. A couple of years ago I went "all healthy" eating well, exercising etc. I was also in a good relationship, in a comfortable house with little stress (just enough to keep me motivated) and little to be concerned about, during this time my sex drive was uncontrollable!! \nNow that relationship has broken up, I've recently been unemployed and have had many things to worry about...I still like sex but do not enjoy it as much and haven't orgasm-ed in ages.\nI guess its natures way of reducing pregnancies during hard times...if you're settled and happy, your bodies telling you its a good time to make babies.

Yes.  Your body uses slightly different hormones for sex as it does for building muscle.  Having sex will shift the hormones away from those that build muscle to those that make babies.

any physical exercise should increase your libido...

This is a good question.  My husband would love to know the same thing.  Currently my sex drive is low because of menapause.  I'm going through it very early.  Usually a bottle of wine and somd actual romance will help.  You do know what I mean when I say romance.  Dinner without the kids, rose pettels on the bed,going out on a date with eachother, slow dancing in the livingroom.  These little things open opportunity for flirting.  Thus increasing the want for sex.  b4 menopause I worked sooo much.  My joib made us do a mandatory 15 hrs overtime per week and it took me 2 hours each way to get there.  Then once home still had to check homework cook dinner make sure the house was in order.  I was constantly going and you have the nerve to want what?  Switch roles for a day. see how you feel..  or. start helping around the house if that is the ccase.  but remember  flirting.

yes.....First, take a look at potential libido-killers in your life. These can take a bite out of your sex drive. Anti-depressants, alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs can do the same. \n\nNext, take a closer look at the emotional stuff. Is it possible that a relationship problem is expressing itself this way? Maybe you're not aware of some issue that's affecting you nonetheless. \n\nLastly, people do have different sex drives, and it's possible that yours isn't a strong one (beyond the initial excitement of being with a new partner). But it sounds like you want to be having sex, so maybe repetition is lulling your libido to sleep. Try exploring new sexual adventures: read sexy books, watch sexy movies, and see if you get inspired!

Biochemically, having sex is the same thing as eating buckets of chocolate. Chocolate has a lot of chemicals that the body produces during sex, so that might explain why it soothes your drive. Along the same lines, that also gives the favorite treat some aphrodisiac power, albeit not a lot.

There is a big difference between instinct and motovation.  Often our hormonal drives are okay, but out emotional filters are out of balance.\nWhat will help more than anything else is communication with your partner.  For really great sex, it takes two partners, not one human acting alone.\nDo not be afraid to find out what you really like.  Do not be ashamed at how the two of you decide to experiment.\nIf communication with your partner is not the problem, by all means visit a healthcare professional.  Many specialize in the area.  Do not be frightened, just do it.  Life is passing you by, but it does not have to be by your own choice.
