Guide to Increasing Male Sexual Stamina
Raise your hand if you want to last longer in bed! The truth of the matter is that most guys are dissatisfied with their performance, even if it falls within a normal range. According to research, the average duration of penetrative sex is 5.4 minutes. That number is probably quite a lot smaller than what most men would consider “normal.”
When it comes to sex, there isn’t such a thing as normal or standard. Some couples can get off in three minutes while others would require an hour of intimacy or even more.
Are you interested in improving your performance and building your stamina so that both you and your partner have a better time? The good news is that you can try various tested techniques to get the results you desire. Here are some of the best ways to max your stamina and become a sex god.
Eat the Right Foods
A strong, healthy and properly fueled body can perform tremendously well during sex.
Being mindful of what you eat isn’t just important to maintain optimal weight. Your food choices can also have an impact on your sex life.
Good foods in terms of sex are the ones that improve your circulation. Focus on good sources of Omega-3 fatty acids (oily fish, olive oil, flaxseed, avocados), eggs, natural sources of vitamin B1, fruits and veggies.
Lean cuts of meat are also a great choice as these can promote enhanced hormonal balance and stimulate testosterone production.
Avoid processed foods, trans fats and the empty calories that come from refine carbs. You can still enjoy a diversified diet when trying to eat healthy stuff. In fact, a few basic adjustments will yield noticeable results in a fairly short period of time.
Practice Makes Perfect!
The more you have sex, the better you’d get at it.
And the good news is that you can have sex, even if you aren’t with a partner right now.
Masturbation is fun and healthy. It keeps your prostate in top shape and it can also maximize your stamina when actually having fun with a partner.
If you’re tired of using your hand to masturbate, there are numerous great alternatives out there. Pocket pussies, for example, are realistic toys that can give you a very intense and orgasm-inducing experience. For that purpose, they’re ideal for the guys who want to work on their stamina.
Masturbating before having sex is a good choice even when you’re in a partnered situation. A quick solo session before the big event will help you take care of too much excitement. As a result, you’ll find yourself much more capable of taking your time and doing everything necessary to bring your partner to an amazing orgasm.
Deal with Stress and Performance Anxiety
Many guys, especially inexperienced ones and those who haven’t had sex in a long time, will find themselves climaxing prematurely. While this can happen to anyone, the issue is very embarrassing. If premature orgasms happen often enough, they’ll turn fears into self-fulfilling prophecies over time.
If you believe that a psychological hiccup is standing in the way of longer and better sex, this is the one issue you’ll need to address.
One of the easiest ways to overcome the problem and enjoy sex is to actually talk to your partner about it.
Let them know that you’re worried and a bit anxious about having sex. If they are really into you, some reassurance will be provided. In time, you’ll find yourself much more relaxed and capable of enjoying the moment instead of freaking out about it.
It’s also a good idea to take care of stress that’s caused by non-sexual factors. Being tired, stressed out, over-worked or anxious will affect your performance. Seek out a good outlet for negative emotions. Exercise, practicing a favorite hobby, walks in nature and spending quality time with the people you love can all help.
Quit the Negative Habits
Do you need yet another reason to stop smoking or drinking alcohol? Quitting both of these can contribute to major improvements in your sexual stamina.
Smoking will reduce your lung capacity and your physical endurance. Furthermore, it can affect your libido and bring down your desire to have sex. Men who smoke are more likely to experience issues like erectile dysfunction (ED) than the guys who don’t.
Alcohol isn’t good for your sex life, either. Drinking large amounts of alcohol affects circulation, coordination and heart health. Too much booze can also kill your libido and make you lose interest in sex altogether.
Even if you can’t quit altogether, a reduction in the scope of the bad habit will lead to bedroom changes. And once you see these positive effects, you’ll probably feel even more inspired to nip nasty dependencies in the bud.
Choose the Right Positions
Sexual stamina is often about pacing yourself and controlling your arousal.
Hence, you need to understand the sexual positions that lead to too much stimulation. These are usually the ones that allow for deep penetration. Thus, if you feel yourself becoming too excited, you can switch to another position and improve your pacing.
Some sex positions that can lead to quick arousal include doggie style, cowgirl, reverse cowgirl, the flatiron and the legs on shoulders pose.
If you want to increase your stamina, replace these with positions that give you shallow penetration. These positions include spooning, the missionary position, standing doggie style, three-legged dog and side by side.
Do experiment and be adventurous. By trying out numerous positions, you’ll find out what works really well and what could end sex too son.
The final word of advice for you is to relax and let go of expectations. Sex is meant to be a fun shared experience and not a marathon. Chances are that you’re holding yourself up to unrealistic standards. You’re not a porn actor. Your partner doesn’t want you to be one. In fact, sex that lasts too long could be unpleasant or even painful. Focus on pleasure and great foreplay. If you accomplish that, the actual duration of penetrative sex isn’t going to be that important.
