Premature ejaculation occurs when a man ejaculates sooner during sexual intercourse than he or his partner would like. Delayed ejaculation occurs when it takes a prolonged period of sexual stimulation for a man to ejaculate. Dr. Alexander Pastuszak with U of U Health discusses what treatments work the best for both premature and delayed ejaculation.

We travelled to Dubai to meet our new Men’s Health cover star, Rio Ferdinand, at his gym, SIRO. The former Manchester United defender opens up about how he’s transformed his body — going from a leaner frame during his playing days to a noticeably bigger, stronger physique as he approaches 50.

Widely regarded as one of England’s greatest ever defenders, Rio breaks down the nutrition behind his gains, how he fuels his training, what he’s benching these days, and why his teammates always knew summer was coming when he started turning up in the gym.
