How to recharge the love lull
Translation by: Gerson Borges
Ever wondered why a sumptuous fruit salad sundae tastes yummier than a boring bowl of fruits and a bar of ice-cream? The reason is very simple... It's different than the regular. The fruit and ice cream were the same, but just by bringing them together in a lavish tumbler, adding some jelly and new flavors made the good old fruits completely drool worthy.
Monotony can mar every aspect of life. And personal relations are the first to bear the brunt. The 'familiarity quotient' that partners strive so hard to achieve at one point of time often begins to take a toll on their love life as monotony seeps in. Sex starts dwindling and surprises decrease as both partners become habituated to each other, often taking each other for granted.
Thus, the resulting reaction doesn't remain a revelation any more. Spontaneous expressions decline as sex becomes a dull and tried and tested formulae. We give you some tips to bring the zing back into your love life. Just try and do the routine things a trifle differently and watch the effects.
Workout wonders
Think a workout implies a rigorous, sweaty grind. Think ahead. Sexual function depends a lot on your general health. And the more you can work out to improve your health, the better your sex life can be. For those who need facts, as per the Electronic Journal of Human Sexuality, people who exercise regularly perceive they are more sexually desirable and experience greater levels of the testosterone hormone, which drives the sexual libido.
Experts believe that women feel sexier than ever post an invigorating exercise session and often experience a fully loaded sexual rendezvous. So start by giving your body the much needed attention. Even something as simple as a brisk walk covering two miles a day can reduce men's risk of impotence.
Turbo Tip
So, if you've not been working out since the past few years, get started now! Instead of the regular gym-ing, go for workout options that are not only exciting, but also keep the two of you together. Some interesting couple work-out options include aqua aerobics (think romance combined with fitness), couple yoga, swimming lessons, salsa classes and tango sessions to name a few.
A good option for couples other than jogging aimlessly can be training for a marathon or learning a new a sport together. An assisted work out with your partner helps you both to spend quality time together and consequently strengthens your bonding. Besides, looking good and losing weight does miracles for an individual's self confidence making them more uninhibited during sex and ready to experiment more.
Make the workout all the more interesting, by adding some rewards. For example, smother your beau with a hot kiss for every twenty crunches or a sensual massage
for the one who jogs for the longest time. Remember a couple who sweat it out together in a health club have the potential to sweat it out in bed too!
