WHY SEX POSITIVITY IS IMPORTANT
TFA: As fit pro AND having a company that embraces sexuality, how do you see those two industries overlapping?
MMC: In everything that I do from fitness to Burgundy Fox my mission remains the same: to empower people, women. I know you can relate to this, Paige, but how amazing do you feel after a great workout? Whether it is 5 minutes or 60 minutes - I want my clients to leave feeling confident, strong and like a boss!! So in the same way that fitness provides this strong sense of self, this can also come from embracing your sexuality: being confident in your body, your desire, your pleasure. Alone or with a partner - the feelings, the mental and the actual chemistry are the same from fitness and sex.
You know the happy hormones? Serotonin dopamine, oxytocin, and endorphins that promote positive, mood-boosting feelings and things like pleasure and happiness, we get these from both sex and fitness. And on that note, sex improving your fitness fun fact: a sweaty sex session can burn some serious calories and improve overall physical fitness. If you’ve been meaning to hit the gym, now is a great time to start a regular workout regimen. Studies show that frequent exercise leads to enhanced sexual performance.
So yes, I do find very much that these “industries” overlap. Strength, power, mindset, confidence, happiness!!
