Does Cardio Makes for Better Sex? Yes, yes it does.

 

When studying women who participate in cardiovascular exercise including cycling, running, swimming and a combination of the three, researchers found that the women who had a regular moderate intensity exercise routine reported a lower level of female sexual dysfunction, orgasm dissatisfaction and trouble becoming aroused.

These women tend to be better at appreciating what their body is capable of and communicating what their body needs to feel good.
