Busy schedules and sedentary lifestyles make it difficult to maintain a healthy sex life. While you have a desk job in an office, you can practice some simple exercises to improve your sexual health. These exercises are easy to follow and do not require any additional equipment. All you need is a little enthusiasm to practice them regularly.
Here are five simple exercises you can do at your desk to boost your sexual health.
Pelvic floor compression
Sit comfortably and tighten your pelvic muscles as if you are stopping the flow of urine, hold the position for a moment, then release. Pelvic floor muscle compressions can be done two sets at a time, twice a day. This exercise strengthens the pelvic muscles and improves their control and endurance.
Kapalbhati Pranayama
Try a breathing technique called Kapalbhati Pranayam. All you have to do is sit upright, take a deep breath, tense your abdominal muscles and exhale quickly through your nose. This exercise is great for improving blood flow and lowering stress levels.
Hold in urine
According to Dr Chirag Bhandari, founder, Institute of Andrology and Sexual Health (IASH), “Another simple yet effective exercise to improve sexual health is to hold your urine for as long as possible. Holding urine strengthens the pubococcygeus muscle, helping you control ejaculation. It can be practiced two to three times a day.”
Internal and external rotation of the thigh
Lift your feet off the ground, sit on the edge of a chair, and move your thighs inwards and outwards. This exercise will increase your hip strength and flexibility. This exercise should be done 2-3 times daily, with at least 30 repetitions per set.
walking
One of the most effective forms of exercise to keep you sexually healthy and active is walking. Even if you’re in an office and can’t take a long walk, a five-minute walk or jog around your desk is enough. Doing this regularly will get your blood flowing and improve your overall health.
