| I'm 40 and my sex drive seems to have gone down significantly in the past few years (male). At 37 I was still as horny as I was at 20. I hope there is a solution. |

| There is a simple solution. I started lifting weights about 6 years ago. The spike in testosterone has been incredible. I’m ready for sex 24/7. I don’t use steroids or any type of enhancement products. Ladies get your men in the gym. |

What was your motivation? Did your DW ask you to? Did you have low drive? I dont think my DH even realizes it's a problem. |

| Unless there is a medical reason for it I would be suspicious. I went through this a few years ago thinking my husband had lost his sex drive only to find out it was never stronger, he was just using it up on a 22 year old intern at work. |

I had a few things motivating me. One of the key things was hating the feeling of always being tired. I didn’t want to be one of these guys that grows old, fat, and grumpy. I want to stay “young” and fit for as long as I can. I used to get home from work and sleep for 2 hours. Wake up, have dinner with my family, get stuff ready for work, and go to sleep. Now I have energy to play basketball with my kids, cut the grass, chop wood, and anything else. But I’ll be honest. The best part about it all is how much I want to have sex. I want it all the time. Gotta keep my Sugar happy!! Lol |

Another DH here, and this is 100% true. As far as how to motivate your DH, you really can't, unless you start hitting the gym yourself and invite him along or something, or buy a weight set for "you," and then encourage him to give it a shot. It really has to come from within. For me, I was like the PP, just wanted to pull myself out of a downward spiral. |

Yet another DH here. To be clear, the important point is to build muscle. Too much long distance running or other endurance stuff can have a negative impact on testosterone in men, especially if you're 50+. Cardio is still important but for older men, your focus should be on building muscle if you're hoping for a testosterone boost. |

"What was your motivation? Did your DW ask you to? Did you have low drive? I dont think my DH even realizes it's a problem."
If DH doesn't realize there is a problem, then YOU are the problem. You don't have to change your whole lifestyle, just initiate often enough so that it is clear he knows you want more than he does. Will that change everything, no, but if you initiate every weekend, when you get around to talking about testosterone therapy and the like, he will be in the loop and more willing. |

| You don't have to be lonely. If DH won't scratch the itch someone will. If it's been years I'd say you've already given DH plenty of chances to fix the problem. Have an affair, or tell DH to man up or move out, but the status quo HAS to change. Good luck! |

Are you fat? If you’re pretty overweight that’s an issue. Men are visual creatures. Are you bad in bed? That will do it to. Despite what people think men need to be turned on by someone who is good and enthusiastic in bed.
I’d yiur husband is fat, then have him hit the gym and start lifting weights. Exercise is great for testosterone production and will make him healthy. Along with a better diet. Before you attempt to pump him full of chemicals that greatly increase chances of prostate cancer, start simple |
