Product Description

A simple to follow food-and-fitness plan for men, designed to increase sexual drive and pleasure—and turn any man into a great lover

Not every man wants to exercise. But just about every man wants to experience increased sexual performance and pleasure. Now that is not only possible but easily attainable, thanks to the 4-step physical and nutritional fitness plan in Built for Sex.

This simple but revolutionary program is anchored in a series of scientific studies that prove conclusively that men who commit to a moderate amount of exercise four times a week can expect substantial sexual benefits.

Exercise alone will improve blood flow and boost testosterone levels to deliver increased sexual endurance, strength, and flexibility; but attention to proper foods, herbs, vitamins, and supplements can actually enhance those benefits, transforming a man into a veritable lovemaking machine—someone who is indeed "built for sex."

5.0 out of 5 stars Insightful, is all i have to say about this book!, August 1, 2007

By	Eric Robinson "Big E" (DETROIT, MI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is as informative as it gets in terms of helping us men far as stamina in the bedroom goes. Nothing against Viagara or Cialas, but i think if you follow the guidelines in this book you will find that it is not necessary to take those pills. I haven't even read through half of this book and i'm quite impressed already. I highly recommend it for the guys who are in their mid 30's and up.

4.0 out of 5 stars A complete guide to fitness and nutrition!, September 1, 2008

By	DJ Come of Age "DJ COA" (Germany/France/USA) - See all my reviews

It took me only a week to read this whole book. As much as I thought I knew about fitness and nutrition, there was so much more to learn. I feel that Scott Hays has done an excellent job at candidly answering questions many of us aren't bold enough to ask. As a middle age gentleman, I can both feel and see changes in my body. I also respond well to diets and exercise. That's a plus! In order to get the most out of it all, sometimes a little professional guidance is what we need.

Personally, the chapter on stretching did me a lot of good. Not only does Hays explain the benefits of various stretches, there are pictures (yes, pictures) of models performing the exercises. There are plenty of pics of weightlifting exercises too. I found that I have fortunately been on the right track, but have since incorporated new exercises into my workout regimen.

With an endless barrage of health information at our disposal, sometimes it's hard to find a good starting place. What is myth and what is reality? Let me recommend this book to men who want a little more out of their sex lives, their health, and I can attest above all, it will give you sound advice and peace of mind.
