I have started this thread to compliment Drewxcore's International Mens Week March 12-18th
It is deliberately written in a 'Drew / manly style', emphasising manly attributes of strength and stamina. Despite this, the points contained below also equally apply to women IMHO, sorry Drew.
It's intended to inspire all swingers to take more exercise now Spring has arrived.
Now I'm not suggesting losing a few pounds will make you a better swinger. I rather like women of my age range who have the fuller figure. No, I'm talking about having good muscle tone and well exercised heart, lungs and circulation. The only way to achieve this is through regular vigorous exercise, more vigorous than can be achieved from sex alone.
As fellow Londoners will know, traffic is diabolical in the daytime and since I stopped motorcycling 10 years ago, If I am out on my own, I have cycled for short trips, more so in the summer months and use my car or public transport for longer journeys. For an experienced cyclist such as myself, a typical ride consists of periods of near maximum effort, so the lungs and heart are used to approaching full capacity and the increased circulation keeps the body in shape. Not only does cycling at this intensity improve stamina, intense cycling is also about tactics and knowing how to pace yourself. If you are a fan of the Tour De France, you will understand this.
So I think my exercise regimen which maintains / improves strength, stamina and pace makes me better between the sheets, how do others feel about keeping in shape?
