High testosterone in men enhances sex drive, and exercise helps to increase testosterone levels, and therefore are useful for men's health. However, it turns out that too intense training is not only not useful, but, on the contrary, reduces male libido. This is reported by scientists from the University of North Carolina.

The study involved volunteers, many of whom, in the present or in the past, were athletes (runners and cyclists). Participants answered questions about weekly training, intimate life, and well-being.. After analyzing the answers, the researchers divided the volunteers into groups.



In men who have been training hard for a long time, libido is often at low or medium levels.. And low to moderate exercise intensified sexual desire.

According to scientists, further research is needed to understand which exercises are beneficial for male libido and which are not, and also how many loads are considered excessive and lead to a decrease in libido..

This study is reported in the journal Medicine \u0026 Science in Sports \u0026 Exercise.
