At some time, all men experience a slight reduction in performance after fifty. As men age, they produce less testosterone, experience reduced physical activity, and are impacted by the side effects of the medications they take to maintain their health.
But in 2022, fifty is the new thirty and men are doing everything in their power to maintain their sexual libido and continue to enjoy as much sex as possible. Men are visual creatures who love the beauty of a woman. So, it’s only natural that a man would want to make sure he can still act on his desires, continue to please his lover, and continue to thrive in the bedroom.
Here are some of the latest tips men are using to maintain their sexual prowess in the bedroom.
MENTAL ATTRACTION DOMINATES AFTER 50
Men after fifty must have a mental attraction to the person they want to sleep with. The days of wanting sex with anyone who will have it are over. Men fifty and over are drawn to women with whom they want to spend time, have great conversations, and provide mental stimulation. This means that they aren’t negative, don’t cause stress in their relationship, and are calm spirits who create a peaceful environment.
Men after fifty have had enough sex with women to the point that they also want to be able to enjoy themselves outside the bedroom. Mental foreplay can be enjoying a relaxing walk, going to a live event, or traveling to a special location to spend time together. Men after fifty are not interested in arguing or spirited competition with their lovers. They want to provide peace and have peace brought to them.
Once men find a woman who mentally attracts them, it’s easier to create physical attraction. That physical attraction leads to a more meaningful sexual experience and often leads to better sexual performance for both parties.
EXERCISE IS THE KEY
Having sex frequently — and enjoying it — puts older men at higher risk for heart attacks and other cardiovascular problems. For older men, however, good sex may lower the risk of hypertension. That’s according to the first large-scale study of how sex affects heart health in later life.
Exercising on a regular basis for men over fifty reduces the risk of heart attacks or stroke. Exercise also helps increase endurance when having sex. It helps strengthen the body from injuries that might occur during sex.
As men age, they begin to develop problems with lower back pain, knee issues, and fatigue. Exercise helps reduce or eliminate some of those problems. Sexual pleasure might be reduced with a weak muscular frame and can lead to other health issues.
Exercise also helps with reducing the need to take medications that come with age. The side effects of medications for diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and high blood pressure could impact sexual performance. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle helps men avoid a lower libido due to the side effects of medication.
SEX IS MORE THAN INTERCOURSE
For men over fifty, sex starts outside the bedroom. Because they desire a mental connection, mental foreplay is paramount when creating the desire for sex.
“I like to send flowers and little notes throughout the day to let her know that I appreciate her,” Thomas from Dayton said. “In return, she makes sure I have everything I need for my day. We really work to let each other know we love each other.”
Mental foreplay does not require expensive gifts or travel. It can be as simple as creating a peaceful environment or encouraging a stimulating conversation, which allows a deeper mental stimulation to take place for the couple. This often leads to more meaningful sexual interactions between the couple and better sex.
COMMUNICATION IS THE KEY
Often, when one partner is frustrated with the amount of sex they are or are not getting, they’ll not speak up and say anything about it. This frustration leads to other kinds of dissatisfaction. The problem snowballs until the couple either breaks up or is at a point where one person cheats.
It is best to always communicate one’s needs with the other. Communication can reduce the amount of frustration one is experiencing and allow the couple to have a healthy dialogue about issues. When expectations are set, they also can be met.
Tamika from Columbus said, “I need to have a talk with my husband because we seemed to have hit a rut in the bedroom. After we talked, I realized that he was upset, too. We both had no clue how we got to the point where we weren’t having sex. But we talked, fixed it, and now we’re back to normal.”
NEW POSITIONS ARE ALWAYS GOOD
Couples who have been together for a long time might begin to experience boredom in the bedroom. New positions can spice up the sex between couples who need a new reason to be together. Men who are older might not be able to do some of the positions they once enjoyed. Work with your lover to find new positions that are fresh and create just as much pleasure as the old positions.
Sex toys are always an option for those that need to go further to create a better sexual experience. Couples should visit adult stores that specialize in creating a better sexual experience and see the available options.
SEXUAL AIDS AND ED MEDICATION
For men who have a reduced erection or who suffer from ED (Erectile Disorder), there are trusty options available to help them get and maintain an erection. Affectionally called the ‘Blue Pill,” men have numerous options to choose from if seeking a medical option to aid in sexual performance in the bedroom.
There are also devices that can help men get and maintain erections. Penis rings can be used to keep the blood from leaving the penis during sex. There are different sizes than can be placed at different positions that are adjustable for comfort.
There is no shortage of options and actions that men can take to enjoy more sex in the bedroom. One of the best parts about being an adult is the ability to have as much sex as possible. Use some of the options available to you, find a great partner, and as always, practice safe sex.
