Exercise can HELP ED
Published On: 2021-04-23
But no matter what, proper exercise will have a positive effect on ED. Blood flow problems caused by diabetes, obesity, high cholesterol, and vascular disease are often associated with erectile dysfunction. Adding aerobic exercise to your routine can improve your overall health. According to a Harvard study, 30 minutes of walking a day was linked to a 41% drop in risk for Erectile Dysfunction.
A study done in the United Kingdom found that pelvic exercises helped 40 percent of men with ED regain normal function. Doing pelvic floor exercises improves the strength of your pelvic muscles. These are also called kegelexercises; they strengthen the bulbocavernosus muscle responsible for sexual health and can enhance erection rigidity while helping keep blood from leaving the penis. Kegel exercises are also helpful in dealing with premature ejaculation.
To do a Kegel exercise, locate the pelvic floor muscle, it’s the one used to stop urinating. Once that muscle is located, squeeze it and hold it for five seconds, then relax. Repeat this 10 times two or three times a day. It can be done while sitting or standing.
Proper exercise can increase testosterone levels in men; specifically, ones that work the lower body like squats and hip exercises work best for erectile dysfunction.
As always, the best way to fight Erectile Dysfunction is with a healthy, active, well-rounded lifestyle, visit HealthyMale.com where you can learn more.
