CMSP's Cool Image of the Day


Sexercise yourself into shape. Forget about jogging round the block. According to research, "sexercise" can lower the risk of heart attacks and helps people live longer.

Endorphins released during orgasm stimulate immune system cells, which also helps target illnesses like cancer, as well as wrinkles, it states. Sexual health experts said such claims could not be scientifically proven.

Sex with a little energy and imagination provides a workout worthy of an athlete, the article says. "Forget about jogging round the block or struggling with sit-ups. Sex uses every muscle group, gets the heart and lungs working hard, and burns about 300 calories an hour." Increased production of endorphins "will make your hair shine and your skin smooth."

The research goes on to say that orgasms release "painkillers" into the bloodstream, which helping keep mild illnesses like colds and aches and pains at bay. The production of extra estrogen and testosterone hormones "will keep your bones and muscles healthy, leaving you feeling fabulous inside and out".

Hmmm. Do you think a bunch of guys researched this? Was a keg involved?
