Men plagued by problems in the bedroom might be tempted to turn to medication or mindfulness to improve their sex lives.

But simply hitting the gym can help you last longer, chaps.

That’s according to a new study, which found that just seven minutes of high intensity interval training (HIIT) per day helped reduce premature ejaculation symptoms in less than two weeks.

The second performed slow breathing exercises for the same duration, while the third ‘control’ group took part in normal breathing exercises.

All participants completed several questionnaires throughout the study.

Analysis revealed that premature ejaculation symptoms decreased in the HIIT group and in the normal breathing group, but not in the slow breathing group.

However, by day 12 and 정품 비아그라 above, symptoms were lower in the HIIT group compared to the normal breathing group.

Writing in the International Journal of Clinical and Health Psychology, the team said: ‘Compared to the control group, the efficacy of two weeks of HIIT exercise in mitigating premature ejaculation symptoms suggests its potential as a novel treatment.’

Further analysis revealed that attention regulation scores improved across all three groups.

This suggests that whatever the intervention, simply focusing on the exercises or breathing might enhance men’s ability to regulate their attention – a skill that also appeared to be linked to enhanced control over ejaculation.

The researchers cautioned that it is unclear whether these benefits are sustained over a longer period, and that their study sample was limited to younger men.
