How to Increase Sexual Stamina So You Can Last Longer in Bed

Struggling to Increase Your Sexual Stamina?

There’s nothing more frustrating for a woman during sex than when she's just about reaching the point of orgasm and her partner loses his intensity and ejaculates early or starts losing erection hardness. Or when it takes such a long time for a woman to reach an orgasm it feels like a marathon event for her male partner who has to remain hard and in control during this time. When either partner is struggling to feel fulfilled sexually it's important to know how to increase sexual stamina to restore mutually fulfilling intimacy. 

Increase Sexual Stamina So You Can Last Longer in Bed

Irrespective of how long her partner can last in bed, the most important aspect of sex for most women is a mutually satisfying emotional connection. For a man, connection requires being in control of himself and being able to satisfy his partner sexually. 

If you're worrying about sexual problems then neither of you will be experiencing ANY kind of emotional connection. Feeling disconnected can kill desire and attraction in a relationship so it's important to know how to increase sexual stamina and restore feelings of connection.

Has Your Female Partner Lost Her Libido?

A woman who loses interest in sex may have low sexual stamina, endurance or enthusiasm to participate. It's important to understand her reasons and deal with them, because an ongoing loss of desire for sex can eventually switch her libido off completely. 

A partner with a premature ejaculation or erectile dysfunction problem, as well as being unhappy with her partner's (porn) technique can all be culprits. So too, can be not knowing how to correctly balance her sexual focus to reach an orgasm. Vaginal dryness is another common issue for women over 40.

It's important not to confuse quantity with quality. A female partner wants quality sex and fulfilling intimacy. She wants an emotional connection and both partners to enjoy sex.

A woman can sense it when a man is distracted or worried about his sexual performance.

She can smell “faking happy sex” a mile away. Women have vivid imaginations so she may start believing a male partner no longer loves her when there’s nothing further from the truth!

Especially if he is losing his hard erection during foreplay or ejaculating prematurely.

Being contaminated with unwanted thoughts can cause either partner to lose control over the sexual act. This leads to a partner wanting to know how to increase sexual stamina.

Best Foods and Exercises to Increase Sexual Stamina

Many men and women fall victim to the diet and exercise myth. They mistakenly believe that food and exercise purported to increase sexual stamina will solve an early ejaculation or weak erection problem, or help a woman to achieve orgasm. This is most unlikely to happen because sexual stamina has little to do with food or exercise.

Sex problems are usually caused by focusing on the wrong action at the wrong time, which leads to the brain becoming confused. This results in your brain triggering the wrong muscle program in your body. As an example, try texting on your phone while driving!

On saying that, certain foods can cause loss of energy and congestion in the arteries, leading to poor blood flow. Loss of energy usually equates to a bad performance! This in turn can affect the quality of a man’s erection and a woman’s awareness of sensations in her vagina.

how to increase sexual stamina with food

Best Sexual Stamina Foods

Foods which are rich in nutrients; vitamins and minerals and other essential nutrients are believed to improve sexual stamina. This is because they improve blood flow throughout the whole body, including increased blood flow to the genital area.

Foods known to boost the libido and sperm count are generally purported to also increase sexual stamina.

The best foods to increase sexual stamina include Pomegranate Juice, Beets, Bananas, Goji Berries, Watermelon, Asparagus, Spinach, Oats, Garlic, Ginger, Ginseng, Maca, Wild Salmon, Oysters, Dark Chocolate, Pumpkin Seeds, Pistachios, Peanuts and Walnuts.

Best Sexual Stamina Exercises

It’s important to note the difference between training for sex, and other endurance training. Sex requires the utilization of a specific set of muscle groups. To increase sexual stamina so you can last longer in bed, you need to specifically exercise your pelvic floor (PC) muscles. These are the muscles which support a healthy penis, strong erections and a toned vagina. 

We’ve all heard of the term "use it or lose it" and the same concept applies to the muscles which support a healthy sex life. The most effective way to exercise your penis or vagina and the key to improve blood flow as well as strength for naturally increased sexual stamina is to flex your pelvic floor muscles.

Contracting your pelvic floor muscles lifts the pelvic floor and is like weight training for your sexual organs. This simple exercise restores blood flow and essential nutrients into this important area leading to stronger, fuller erections for men, and toning a woman’s vagina while helping reduce vaginal dryness.

To locate these muscles simply stop urinating mid-stream; the muscles you use to hold your urine back are your pelvic floor muscles.

Outside of the bathroom, imagine you are making a fist with your penis or vagina and hold that contraction for the count of five. Then relax that contraction. This is one cycle. Do 10 cycles, 3x daily in the first week and add another 10 cycles every week until you are doing 50 cycles 3x daily.

Over a five week period this exercise can restore penis size lost over the years, as well as penile strength. It will tone and tighten a woman’s vagina and enable more powerful orgasms. It's the best exercise to naturally increase sexual stamina.

If you only strengthen your penis (or vagina) you can still run out of sexual stamina due to weakness in other areas. As well as strengthening the PC muscles, you also need to strengthen the supporting sex muscles to increase your sexual stamina. These include your legs, arms, shoulders, lower back and hip muscle groups.

The best sexual stamina exercises include Kegel exercises and other bodyweight exercises including push-ups and squats. Bouncing on a mini-trampoline or skipping are great ways to increase cardiovascular fitness so you have the sexual endurance to last longer in bed.

Sexual Stamina Pills

There is no long lasting medicine to increase sexual stamina. Topical hormone creams, erectile dysfunction drugs and premature ejaculation medications treat the symptoms not the cause. They ONLY work short term (and often they don’t work at all!) Antidepressant medications will not stop premature ejaculation from occurring and may, in fact, lead to erectile dysfunction. This is due to the suppression of feeling in the body.

The side-effects endured when coming off purported sexual stamina drugs can be nothing short of horrendous and may also interrupt your sleep patterns.

Be wary of drugs which promise to increase sexual stamina. No drug works without causing side-effects elsewhere in the body. Side effects of common sexual stamina enhancement pills include “ice-cream” headaches, nausea, deafness and blindness. Although the last two side-effects are considered rare, do you really want to risk losing your sight or hearing when you can naturally increase your sexual stamina?

How to Increase Sexual Stamina Naturally

Remember that sexual enhancement pills and exercise will not improve a poor sexual technique. To increase sexual stamina naturally it's important to predominantly eat foods which increase blood flow and improve your overall health. Regularly exercise all the muscles involved in the sexual act. 

The best way to naturally increase sexual stamina is by acting in the above areas and most importantly, correcting the wrong sexual focus issue which I can help you with. If you’re suffering from premature ejaculation or erectile dysfunction or are unable to reach an orgasm, you’ve got to understand how your current focus and actions are influencing these problems. 

I'm totally confident I can help you restore a happy and satisfying sex life in a timely manner when you take action to end the problem. Please schedule a time to chat with me here.

I am amazed at how well this technique works!

“I’ve been to medical conferences all around the world, searching for an answer to my ED problem which started occurring after prostate surgery. No medical specialists are able to provide a permanent solution for erectile dysfunction – they have no idea how to solve it. Jacqui offered a completely different perspective – I am amazed at how well this technique works! Sometimes I lose focus and start losing the erection – but now I know how to immediately get it back!”

Every male should have this education!

I couldn’t believe it! After a lifetime of ejaculating within a minute (and for the past 5 years losing my erection hardness within one minute as well) I was able to stay HARD AND IN CONTROL for over 10 minutes – just 4 days after my session with Jacqui – and the next time I had sex! It’s blown my mind! Every male should have this education!

  • Greetings! Very useful advice in this particular article! It is the little changes that make the largest changes. Many thanks for sharing!

  • My husband used a Topical hormone cream and it didn’t work as promised. He got side effects and improvement in stamina was ZERO.

    • Hi Kelly, this commonly occurs due to a lack of relevant sexual focus – our brain responds to the most recent “instruction” we provide which means that if he is continuing to worry about the problem (due to not knowing how to focus his attention correctly) he will trigger stress hormones which will override the sex hormones. This is an easy problem for me to solve.

  • Its 3 weeks now that I started working on my PC muscles along with other supporting sex muscles to increase my sexual stamina. My sexual stamina is way more than before and I will continue to focus on my sexual balance as you have taught me as well.

  • After I started following your instructions my sexual stamina has increased tremendously and now I can last long. Thanks 🙂

  • My stamina is pretty good while performing in bed but I want to increase it more so I can last for a longer duration of time. I have started doing those exercises and eating the foods you’ve mentioned.

    • Hi Alister, you could, but it will not work for increasing your sexual stamina long term. This is because your brain needs to receive relevant signals during sex, which is affected by how you are focusing your attention. What this means is if you focus on the wrong technique at the wrong time then you will lose control over ejaculation or lose your hard erection. How to get the balance right is fully explained in my Sex Mastery Hard AND in Control program for men.

  • My BF can’t hold it for more than a minute which is SO frustrating. We have tried everything so that he can last longer but nothing has worked. Please provide us with an effective solution.

    • Hi Claire, I’ve lost count of the number of clients who had “tried everything” before finding me. The reality is that most experts provide a band-aid solution which doesn’t address the cause of the problem which is using the wrong technique at the wrong time. This is what I correct.

  • I don’t do drug or anything but still I am not able to keep it hard for a long time. Why am I facing this? Is this related to any sexual disorder?

    • Hi Flynn, focusing on the wrong action at the wrong time will make you lose your hard erection. This is also known as erectile dysfunction. Correctly balancing your sexual focus between you, your partner and the actions of sex will ensure you can last as long as you want to. How to do this is explained step-by-step in my Sex Mastery Hard and in Control program for men.

  • I am specifically doing the exercises related to pelvic floor (PC) muscles and have noticed some changes in my stamina. These exercises are amazing and they really work.

    • Hi Anthony, correct sexual focus is required to enhance your sexual stamina, the exercises simply improve blood flow and structural support. Perhaps you are now focusing your attention on the correct actions instead of worrying about problems occurring.

  • I am refraining myself from using sexual stamina pills and I believe natural ways are the best to boost stamina without getting side effects.

  • Just because of you I am able to restore a happy and satisfying sex life. Thanks for your support and help Jacqui!

  • This is incredible and ultimate information for all men. I have read the complete article. Thank you for sharing such useful and life-changing information.

  • Pomegranate Juice, Beets, Bananas, Goji Berries, Watermelon, Asparagus, Spinach, Oats, Garlic, Ginger, Ginseng are the best foods to increase sexual stamina.

  •  I am suffering from depression and taking anti depression pills. Please help me so I can increase my stamina and can perform better in bed.

    • Hi Dwayne, antidepressants can affect your sexual performance so be careful with those, they are not a long-term fix. In many cases weak erection and premature ejaculation problems stem from focusing on the wrong timing of specific thoughts / actions or feelings during sex which confuses your brain as to what programs are wanted.

  • Since I stopped using sexual stamina pills and started using natural ways I must say that I have noticed some positive changes in the last 2 weeks.

  • I faced several side effects because of the drugs I used to boost my stamina. No drug works to increase sexual stamina.

    • Hi Rocky, drugs often have unwanted side-effects which can cause other problems. The best way to increase sexual stamina is with the correct techniques for balancing your sexual focus.

    • Louis, good for you! As you found, solving weak erection and premature ejaculation problems is easy with the correct knowledge and technique as outlined in my Sex Mastery program for men.

  • My sex stamina is completely zero now because of the drugs I used to boost my stamina and it back fired. Please help!

    • Hi Mike, good stamina during sex requires balancing your sexual focus. This includes your awareness of sexually arousing thoughts, awareness of feeling, and actions. This is explained step-by-step in my Sex Mastery: Hard AND in Control program for men. I am totally confident this program will help you restore a happy and satisfying sex life when you take action to end the problem.

  • I was using sexual stamina pills and faced severe side effects then I started looking for natural ways to boost stamina and came across your post. I feel the natural way is the best way to increase sexual stamina.

    • Hi Baron, the natural way is always the best way to increase sexual stamina. It is also the best way to resolve any issues you are facing so no more stress is placed on the body. The biggest stress comes from having a problem you don’t know how to solve, so getting expert help is paramount.

  • Sex stamina can be increased within a short span of time by following your advice. Thanks for your programme and the helpful posts as well.

    • Hi Baire, thank you for sharing your comments, the vast majority of my clients and customers experience an increase in sexual stamina as well as an increased desire for sex after going through my program.

  • I noticed some great results since I followed the diet and the exercises you have mentioned in your post. My sex stamina is way better than before. Now I am curious about how your program will help me?

    • Hi Jason, moving forward from here, my program will ensure you have a consistently great sex life by being in full control of your erection hardness and the timing of when you ejaculate.

  • I’ve been strengthening my PC muscle for years and by itself it didn’t solve my PE and ED problems. What increased my stamina immensely was following the insights you provide in your program. I now enjoy full control over my erections and my wife is really happy.

    • Hi Anna, thank you for sharing your feedback on my program. The right knowledge and techniques provided in my programs work wonders in restoring a happy and satisfying sex life for men, women and couples.

  • Sexual stamina pills and male enhancements products simply don’t work as I have tried them all and wasted a lot of money. Since I started using your method I have noticed tremendous change in my stamina levels.

  • I want to say one thing after reading this that natural ingredients are helpful for increasing the sexual stamina and they does not have any side effect, herbal medicines are the solution but it will take some time.

  • Earlier I used to think that following a good diet and exercises to increase stamina would restore a hard erection but I was wrong. From last four months, I am exercising on a regular basis with a proper diet and I have only noticed a slight change in my stamina. What am I missing?

    • Hi Jason, in many cases, a weak erection is caused by focusing too much of your attention on your partner, especially during foreplay. This prevents your brain from receiving enough arousing signals therefore resulting in a weak erection that’s not hard enough for penetration. To restore hard erections requires more focus on your own enjoyment of the act. The correct balance of sexual focus is explained step-by-step in my Sex Mastery Hard AND in Control program for men.

  • I took sexual stamina pill for 6 months. Initially, I used to feel good and energetic but I was not aware that those pills were hampering my health. In 6 months span, I feel very low physically and sexually. I believe natural ways are the best ways to get back the immunity.

    • Hi Mac, women lose interest in sex due to various reasons. Make sure you don’t overcompensate by putting too much attention on her during sexual activity as it will make a weak erection problem worse. The complete answer for restoring your stamina and hard erections is outlined in my Sex Mastery Hard and in Control program for men.

  • Hi Jacqui Olliver,

    Hope you are fine. I have faced PE and ED problem last 2-3 months. I am trying to solve it but unable to perform every sex time. I have studied your article and decided to try it. Could you please advise me how improve my sex drive and improve my sexual performance. Waiting for your advice.

  • I am a fitness freak and I workout on a regular basis. The stamina foods mentioned in this article combined with what you teach in your Hard and in Control programme have really made a difference, my stamina has almost doubled in 3 months. My girlfriend is really happy.

    • Yes, these will help you to last longer. Remember, the most important aspect for increasing sexual stamina is to focus your attention on the right thing at the right time. This ensures your brain receives the correct signals throughout the sexual act and responds with the right programs.

  • I was taking male enhancement supplements to increase my stamina and staying power but nothing worked and I faced severe side effects. The points mentioned in this article are really helpful.

  • Nicely written article. I have started taking Pomegranate Juice, Peanuts and Walnuts on regular basis and I hope that my stamina will be way more than it was used to be.

  • I was also a victim of diet and exercise myth but after reading this article I realized that how wrong I was. Thanks Jacqui!

  • Hello Mam,
    I need your help to solve my sex life problem, I am 51 years old and my wife is 43 years old she is not interested in sex at every night she say not interested and I don’t want to force her. Can you guide me how to make balance of my sex life.

    • Hi Venkat, it may be that your wife doesn’t enjoy your sexual technique. Do you lose erection hardness or ejaculate early? Do you frequently change position? You need to find out what she doesn’t like so you can take correct steps to end the problem.

  • Pills actually don’t work and it’s my personal experience. Natural foods and regular exercise can improve and boost your stamina. Most of all your Hard and in Control program helped me the most.

  • I was taking stamina pills to last long in bed but that didn’t happen as I got serious side effects from it. Since I started your Hard in control program, I am experiencing so many changes. Now I can last for long… really long!!!

  • Kegel exercises work wonders. Not only do they help provide a firm stiff erection, they also help with a more intense orgasm. I am 55 and my lover is 22 and she is amazed at my stamina and power.

    • Hi Fred, you are right, Kegel exercises do help increase sexual stamina and are an important part of solving a weak erection problem. It’s important that you do penis strengthening exercises correctly so you don’t make a premature ejaculation problem worse.

  • Because of a too small problem when young I started looking for other help by doing penis pump and hanging weights. Now at 65, I am sitting with 24cm x 13 lazy limp dick and a wife that is no more interested in sex. We are still married but hardly ever sex. I am horny as hell, but poor erection and PE. Maybe it is now time to die. I am reading and studying your info in and out, thinking I need something more.

    • Hi Stephan, it is never too late to regain full sexual function. Exercises alone are not enough to restore a hard erection nor will they stop early ejaculation. Yes, you need more. You need the complete answer which is provided in my Hard AND in Control program for men (the link to the program is on this page)

  • With the right combination of foods and exercises I feel that with each passing day my stamina is increasing. I have increased my workout duration and am following your program for men. My performance in bed has definitely improved.

  • Earlier I used to last longer in bed but from last few weeks I am unable to do that. What can be the exact reason? P.S – Recently I have started taking steroids for a better workout.

    • Steroids can cause all sorts of issues so I recommend that you avoid them. Exercising naturally increases testosterone. You didn’t mention whether you have a PE or ED problem. Either way, you need to understand how your thoughts and actions affect your arousal and resulting ability to last longer in bed.

  • Hello Mam, I need to talk to you that I have problem of both erectile dysfunction and PE…as soon as I start PE take place. It takes about 30 for me… and after that ED problem. Please help me to sort my problem so that me and my wife both can enjoy***nature.
