**Smacthatass2** · 03-02-2005, 02:05 PM

i heard from my friend that if i jerk off i wont get as big because im lossing testosterone? is this true?

**thatguy** · 03-02-2005, 02:06 PM

No, semen contains no testosterone, contrary to popular belief.

**APG** · 03-02-2005, 02:16 PM

why do boxers refrain from sex before training then?

**ihateschoolmt** · 03-02-2005, 02:20 PM

No, it's accually healthly to ejaculate 26 times a month.

Orgasms release endorphins, which are neurotransmitters with painkilling and relaxing effects (morphine and codeine act similarly to endorphins). I'm sure boxers don't want to be "relaxed" when training, but instead want to be alert and focused.

So now I know

**Brolly** · 03-02-2005, 02:33 PM

So then lets say the act of ejaculating lowers testosterone... how long on average does it take to replenish itself?

**Little Wing** · 03-02-2005, 02:59 PM

oh i thought while lifting. um obviously that could be dangerous. nevermind.

it doesn't lower test so you don't have to worry about it

**Little Wing** · 03-02-2005, 03:04 PM

if you use common sense it would be easy to recognize that a male of any species that is sexually active would have a family to protect, or so your body would think, and in the scheme of survival of the fittest or survival period it would serve no purpose for natue to reward reproduction with an inability to fend for either yourself or your mate and offspring. sex keeps you strong. abstaining before a game whatever is bs.

I agree with your first part, but i wouldn't recommend having sex before a game, or esp. boxing match.

Like thatguy says, it makes you relaxed n shit, and for anyone who has ever beat off before a game, you notice right away how week in the knees you are...

for some people being relaxed is an advantage before a sporting event. relaxed muscles function at optimum efficiency. so it really depends on the individual and the sport

**Little Wing** · 03-02-2005, 03:38 PM

i meant like the night before.

I think it all depends....If you are holding a dumbbell and is not too heavy, you should be able to beat off with your free hand while lifting weights. A barbell however

...unless you are talented with your feet......

I'm sorry, I had to. Seriously though, I am not sure but I understand that many boxers abstain from any type of sex while training. Not sure about masturbating though...

Like LAM and I said, beating it does not lower your testosterone, so don't worry about it.

Endorphins do have a relaxing effect, but I doubt it would make a huge difference. Your adrenaline would probably make up for it.

Sexual activity, including masturbation, actually increases levels of testosterone in your body over time.

Well, the results will be minimal for a young person, but to a 40 year old - he would be able to really tell the difference.

Me too.
Only with a very friendly spot.

**Brolly** · 03-03-2005, 03:14 PM

Well doesnt testosterone make u horny as well ??? ... i find that if im watchin porn and i cum in the middle of it i get totally turned off from the porn and i find that i dont even want to think about chicks after i cum and when i picture them having sex or keep watching the porn im disgusted if they are having anal sex whereas i would like it if i was just in the middle of beatin off... but after an hour or so im ready to go at it again if need be... so what does this say besides the fact that im fucked up?

This is hilarious.
This is also why "after i bust-a-nut i be out the fuckin' DOoooor"

You lose interest cuz you just let go of all your sexual tension. My ex gf used to want to talk after we had sex cuz she knew i'd be completely honest, as it is like the only 15 minutes a guy is not thinking with sex on his mind.

**ASSPUNCTURE** · 03-03-2005, 07:29 PM

thatguy is right.

Use it or lose it!

**Brolly** · 03-03-2005, 08:11 PM

lol gotcha flex... but imjust wonderin if that kinda proves that our testosterone goes down?

Prostate. I' think you'd have to do some WICKED crazy jerking off to affect you colon

**ph8bringer** · 03-05-2005, 12:21 AM

Yeah lol, I was about to say...

**maniclion** · 03-05-2005, 12:42 PM

If you're beatin' off while liftin your not concentrating on your training and it will have an effect on your muscle growth. Also it could have an effect on your life span cause if I caught a guy jerkin' it on my equipment I'd be hurlin' some 35's at his head like an Olypic discus thower.

But I kid, jerk it, jerk it often as it keeps the prostate clean and doesn't allow carcinogens to accumulate any where along the plumbing from the testes to the vas defrens etc. just don't manhandle yourself a few hours before or after lifting since that will put you in a calm state and possibly take away the intensity during your workout.

**dickwhorell** · 04-07-2006, 05:08 PM

would you reccommend jerking off or having sex like 2 hours before lifting?

**maniclion** · 04-07-2006, 05:59 PM

No I would want my energy levels to be peaked, also I read a study that showed a decrease in muscle repair when pain relievers were used in conjuction with post-workout repair and it had negative effects on muscle growth so I wouldn't want to jerk it or have sex for a few hours after a workout either since you could flood your body with endorphins and keep your body from knowing where your muscles ache and need to be repaired.
