The only way workin out can be bad for you is if you over do it or you allow it to take over your life and begin obsessing about it . Which is classed as a mental illness. Doctors are even starting to refer patiants to gyms for fitness and conditioning programmes for conditions such as depression and addictive behaviours. This is being used instead of the normal technique of take these pills and i'll see you in a month. This makes sense cos how do you feel after a workout re-energised, feelin good and virtually no worries. Workin out is the natural cure for most ailments exspecially when it comes psychological disorders.
Will working out effect the sex drive of a person? We'll assuming there are no drugs involved that may cause a lowered sex drive i.e AS. Their should no change in sex drive or erection capability. In fact the sex drive should increase as the body becomes fitter, body fat reduces. Reduced body fat = tasty ladies lusting after you therefore their should be no excuse for the sex drive to fail. If it does I would suggest their are other issues that need addressing. In conclusion the more you workout, within reason, the happier the body will be, mentally and physically. workin out si the holy grail.

The PROS of working out CREEEAM the CONS of working out!

With the dieting involved and the elimination of fat and grease from your diet PLUS the cardiovascular benefits - there's no way that it can be bad for you considering the alternative....
