Locate Your Love Muscles

Having sex uses a lot of tiny muscles you don’t normally use during the course of the day unless you happen to be a gigolo or an alligator wrestler. “You’ll definitely have more enjoyable sex if you don’t have to worry about getting fatigued or pulling something,” says trainer Jeff Bell, owner of Bell Fitness Company in New York City.

10 Simple ways to keep her happy

Bell is a weight-loss and fitness expert with a specialty in exercise for sexual health benefits. So we asked Bell to put together a workout that’s not only a terrific calorie-burning and fitness-boosting routine, but one that preps the body for better performance in bed. It incorporates general fitness, sex-specific training, and moves that can give you more stamina for longer lovemaking sessions.
