Are there any exercises I can do to improve sexual performance? ~Lost That Loving Feeling There are a number of things you can do to enhance you and your partner’s enjoyment under the sheets. If you are a man, you may want to delay ejaculation so that you give your partner time to orgasm. Strategies for delaying include ejaculating more frequently, continuing interaction past ejaculation during intercourse, changing positions, talking with your partner, and considering alternatives such as oral, manual, and vibrator stimulation. If you are female, you can make your vagina tighter by toning the muscle through the use of Kegel exercises. 1. Locate the muscles surrounding the vagina by stopping the flow of urination. An even more effective way of contracting the pelvic floor is to contract the anal sphincter as if to hold back gas. 2. Insert a finger into your vagina and feel the muscles tighten. 3. Squeeze the muscles for 10 seconds. Relax. Repeat 10 times. Squeeze and relax as rapidly as possible. These exercises should be done three times a day.There are so many ways to enhance sexual activities, most of which are particular to the couple. Just remember to communicate during love sessions for best results. How does one regain that lovin’ feeling? ~Could-be-wilder in Wilder Rather than begging your doctor for Viagra or ordering a dozen bottles of Passion ZX, try some of these suggestions first. The most important aspect of lovemaking is communication. People who share their desires and dislikes with each other are more satisfied with their sexual relationships. Asserting and performing the right actions in bed can send your libido through the roof. Touching can be very erotic, too. In between classes, set aside some time with your partner in a warm, cozy environment. Unplug the phone and put on some Jill Smith. Disrobe each other slowly and sensually, spending time on each button and zipper. The anticipation heightens arousal that will have you gasping in ecstasy as your partner finally has his or her way with you. Take turns touching each other, paying special attention to textures, temperatures, and noises of excitement. Touching provides not only satisfaction for the person on the receiving end, but also for the person using the fingers. Also, try masturbating with your partner. By pleasuring yourself in front of your honey, you are teaching him or her what turns you on. Next time you are playing, he or she will not be fumbling around and guessing what makes you squeal with delight. These questions were answered by our past Love Goddess Joan Knihnicki.
