YTA mentioned in the high libido post that exercise is important for men's sexual health. My cappy man (cap sun, moon and mars)has recently fallen into a rut and stopped going to the gym. He used to go all the time when we first started dating. He is physically fit - barely any fat on him. Thing is, since he stopped going, I noticed some of his insecurities coming through which also show through in the bedroom. So my question to the Caps, how do I get him motivated enough to go back to the gym? He was sooo confident and happy when he went regularly and now I see it declining. IP: Logged |

This Capricorn goes home every night, and no matter how tired or how late, I kick and punch my punching bag in the basement, practicing my martial arts. Then I climb aboard one of my bikes and do a 15 minute extra vigorous ride on my rollers.I start out each morning with 20 push ups and 20 sit ups. I swim at least 250 meters on weekends and ride one of my bikes (road, mountain or time trial). Vigorous sex helps. It does not matter whether you have no fat. ***Slim and no fat does not mean fit*** ***A buff body does not mean that you are fit*** You are at prime risk for heart attack and stroke if you do not exercise. And watch that weiner after 30 years old. Don't let that weiner suddenly stop working. It can happen with no warning signs. Women have this twisted notion that a skinny, muscular guy must be fit. In fact, there are tons of guys with washboard stomachs that can't handle much cardio exercise and are as out of shape as can be. I encounter them every weekend. Macho shaped with macho egos, completely out of breathe. At the same time, I can show you a guy who is "overweight" who finished high in the rankings in the Hawaii Ironman World Triathon Championships.

I'm saying he's fit because he did work out regularly (cardio and weight train). But since missing a few days at the gym, he's having a hard time getting back. I know we've all been there - having a hard time starting again after stopping for a little while. It's so easy to make excuses as to why you shouldn't go. I just want him to start going again but I'm not sure how to approach it with him without (a) hurting his feelings and (b) making him feel more insecure. To be honest, he is the sexiest man I have ever laid eyes on and I want him to see that too when he looks in the mirror. IP: Logged |

Forget the gym. It costs nothing to just run around all day and climb lots of stairs.You don't have to go to the gym to exercise. I never get to the gym until the weekends because I simply have no time. I leave the house at 5:30 am and get home past 8 pm. Then, I have a ton of sh1t to do. IP: Logged |

He is a Capricorn.You tell him like it is, straight in the face. No offense, but I don't like the water/air sign subtle round about diplomatic friendly ways. For me, I treasure straightforward honesty. A big boy can handle the truth. As long as it is logical and practical, Capricorns listen well. The moment it gets irrational, then forget about it. "I think you should return to the gym because I am very interested in your well being and health. If you like, I would like to go with you this weekend and then we can go somewhere else fun after the gym." "You look great but exercise is important, and I believe that it is important for you to return to the gym. You have my full support." My ex-Capricorn girlfriend would outright tell me "You are looking fat. Go run 5 miles." IP: Logged |
