DH exercising sway?

[ksmom]

DH lifts weights daily and runs (he's not a marathon runner or anything, just does some running). Does this sway boy or girl? We have a boy and are ttc a girl.

Jogging in DH can sway pink (proven by studies) and weight lifting can go either way. If he does it in a heatlhy way it may sway blue, if he overdoes it and takes any yucky supps that might affect his sperm numbers, it may sway pink.

He doesn't take anything like steroids or any supplements that could affect his sperm. DH just does weightlifting daily so I guess in his case it would sway boy. How does jogging in men sway pink? Is it because it keeps his "area" warmer than usual?

Well, daily weightlifting can actually be overtraining that shrinks his muscle mass and sways pink (plus his "jewels" can get overheated just like with joggging/biking)

We don't totally know how jogging sways, but yes, the theory is that the heat and pressure from legs rubbing together lowers sperm count/quality and that this sways pink.
