Scientific research suggests that men who are more physically active (exercise, gardening, swimming, biking, walking, running, etc.) are less likely to suffer from an enlarged prostate (BPH) or from erectile dysfunction (ED).

Aerobic exercise — so-called “cardio” exercise — has also shown to reduce pain, anxiety, and depression in men suffering from chronic prostatitis, and men who are active have a more than 60% lower risk of dying from prostate cancer compared to men who are sedentary.

Strength and core training, that is, building muscle helps targeting underlying hormonal, metabolic, and physical factors. This rebalances the body’s internal environment helping to avoid prostate issues.

Mind that even low to moderate-intensity physical activity, such as walking regularly at a moderate pace, has health benefits.

In fact, studies show that the more physical activity one does, the more health benefits are reaped for the prostate. Moreover, physical exercise can help prevent, manage, or even improve the outcomes for prostate-related issues.
