Will Weight Loss and Exercise Make Your Penis Bigger?

It’s a taboo subject, but I bet every single man (and woman) wants to know the answer to this question. Send the kids to bed, because this article is adults only!

This isn’t a website dedicated to the male anatomy, or its size, or how to use it. But we are about fitness, and your weight does have an effect on your perceived penis size and sexual performance.

The truth is the penis you got is the one you’re stuck with. For the sake of this article, we do not consider penis pills, pumps and other techniques for altering the size of the penis. We are strictly talking about how weight loss and exercise effect your size and, ahem, “performance.”

What Happens When You Lose Weight and Start Exercising

Let’s imagine you’re determined to lose weight and having a better body. You take up a healthy diet of natural foods only – lean meats, healthy grains, fruits, and vegetables. You start exercising too. For cardio you take up swimming or running. You start lifting weights at the gym to grow the muscle and shed the pounds.

How is it going to affect you and your little guy?

Effect on the Penis and the Fat Around It

Weight loss alone will not change your penis size. Losing weight doesn’t make it smaller or bigger. What losing weight will do is decrease the amount of fat on your body. As you lose more and more pounds, your body slims down and it starts to look different. This is true for your chest, your back, your arms, all of your body, including the pubic area.

Men have a “fat pouch” in their pelvic area around their penis. How that fat pouch looks depends on the person, but the rule of thumb is that the fatter you are, the larger the amount of fat around your penis.

So when you lose weight, you are decreasing the size of the fat around your penis. As that gets smaller, your penis looks bigger. It’s all relative. When you’re lean and mean, you have no fat around your penis so it will look its biggest.

If you do have fat around the penis, then it only appears smaller. It’s not physically smaller, it is only visibly and functionally smaller. (We say functionally smaller because the fat blocks the penis from its deepest possible penetration)

An easy comparison is trimming the pubic hair around the penis. If you trim it up, when you’re feeling frisky in Vegas or something, it just makes it seem bigger because more of the penis is exposed. It works the same way with fat. The only problem with fat is you can’t trim it off with a trip to the bathroom.

How much bigger does your penis appear when you lose weight? That’s hard to say, because every man is different. But you can expect about 1 inch in visibility for every 30-50lbs lost. This was confirmed by Dr. Mehmet Oz on an appearance of the Oprah show (I don’t watch Oprah, but there aren’t many studies available on this subject so I had to turn to TV doctors.)

Increased Energy for Sexual Performance

Let’s talk about something more important than physical appearance. Let’s talk about the “motion in the ocean.”

Here’s why you should take up a cardio and weight lifting program if you want to not only increase your penis size, but improve your ability to please the ladies as well.

The first thing people notice when they begin exercising is having more energy. Sex is an energy-intensive activity, so having more energy really helps with performance and duration.

Jogging, running, sports, swimming, and every single cardio activity out there have the same effect on the heart and lungs – increased blood flow throughout out your body. Your heart and lungs build more capacity for strenuous activity and improve their ability to deliver blood (which carries the nutrients).

If you’re out of breath after 3 minutes of sex, collapsing on your poor wife, then taking up exercise will almost immediately solve this problem. It will take months to reach your peak, but at least you’re on the right track. You’re happy, she’s happy, everybody wins.

Let’s not forget the penis is a muscle. It fills to the brim with blood when excited. When your heart is pumping more blood because of exercise, the physical size can increase. (That is, assuming you could never get fully erect because of restricted blood flow.)

Increased Testosterone Levels

Did you know that if you’re male, being 30% over your ideal body weight raises estrogen levels while causing your testosterone levels to sink?

This is the part you stop reading this article if you’re easily offended.

We’re talking about naturally produced testosterone here, the kind you get for free from your body. Not therapy or supplements of any kind.

Testosterone is what makes the man out of men. It’s the reason you scream during competition, and it’s the reason you have dirty thoughts about every women you see with nice legs and a short skirt.

Sounds chauvinist doesn’t it? Sorry, but its Mother Nature. Nothing we can do about it.

There is a social shift in this country to tame the male animal. Testosterone has gotten a bad rap. For some reason we believe it’s where violence comes from and why we fight wars. “Testosterone is bad! Men should act more like women!” say the chick magazines.

Indeed so far the research into the effect testosterone has on producing anger has been inconclusive: the stereotype of the testosterone-fuelled aggressive male has yet to be scientifically substantiated. Source.

The truth is we need testosterone. Men need it. Women desire it.

You increase testosterone from building muscle. Building muscle comes from exercising, and one of the fastest methods to gain muscle is through weight training. Exercising also promotes weight loss. Do you see how this is a win-win-win?

This part about testosterone is going to be cut short. It was getting too long, so we are going to dedicate the next article to the topic of testosterone and society’s push to quell it.

Increased Confidence

Losing weight also builds confidence. Most people gain confidence from weight loss because they just feel better about themselves. Others feel better about themselves when people compliment them on how much weight they lost.

It doesn’t matter how you slice it, getting fit is going to give you confidence. Add in the fact that since you’re a guy all you care about is your penis looking bigger, then you’re on top of the world! Talking to women and satisfying your sexual urges will be easier than you ever thought possible.

If you have no motivation to lose weight, then make it this. Taking up a diet and exercise program to lose weight will improve nearly every aspect of your life. Confidence is the trait common to all successful people in the world. What’s stopping you?
