Not all sports are equally useful for men, warned the famous urologist-andrologist, candidate of medical sciences Konstantin Antonov.
The doctor noted that physical activity is really useful for preventing not only cardiovascular diseases, but also diseases of the male genital area, including cancer, writes Sibkrai.ru. Studies have shown that after exercise, the concentration of testosterone increases by 30-40%, and this has a beneficial effect on well-being and mood, reduces stress levels and increases sexual function.
At the same time, not all types of physical activity have a positive effect on testosterone levels. According to Antonov, long exhausting physical activity, on the contrary, worsens men’s health indicators. We are talking about professional triathlon, cycling, marathon running.
In men who spend several hours a day in the gym, testosterone levels can drop by 40-75%, so it is better to choose the schedule and intensity of training individually with your doctor.
“Physical activity prolongs life and improves its quality. However, sport can be harmful if you choose an inadequate load and incorrectly evaluate your resources at the start. Therefore, it is very important to have not only a good coach, but also to consult a doctor, ”the specialist concluded.
