Does masturbation effect your workout?

[BulgeNine]

or your workout ability in any way? I quit fapping for 3 days and i ended up more energetic than usual, but i think it had to do with being away from the computer more than the actual act

Yh if I wank before the gym I have less energy- I keep it saved for after like a reward lol. Does mean that I am ridiculously horny sometimes when I'm there but just a reason to try and finish quicker!

 

[Mikes8]

yes always after is better, releases all that energy

 

[HJ1958]

Always after I work out. In fact, was real horny yesterday, surfing the porn sites. Decided it best to wait till after I took my afternoon run. One of the best runs in weeks and when I did wank after my work out, great orgasm and big load. Totally wiped me out!!

 

[BulgeNine]

totally agree.

although there is something to be said about the flooding release of testosterone immediately after you blow a load, then working out immediately afterwards.

I wonder if it is not unlike doing strong, big, compound lifts like deads, squats, etc... where the body releases a ton of hormones like test and HGH, then you're supposed to follow that up with other body parts you want to grow, like biceps or chest. That way, those muscles benefit from the influx of testosterone in the body. Could the same be true of lifting right after a good beat off/fuck?

 

[darkmusclemeat]

Always after, as soon as possible haha

Very interesting thread. Yes, if fapping means compulsory cumming, then I fully agree. It has a significant impact on energy levels. I'm sure there is a testosterone related or other medical explanation for it.

But think differently. it is very well possible to masturbate and edge for a while without cumming. On purpouse. This is more than just an idea or a thought. I found out that I perform better on my rides and races when horny. Hence, I often do some wanking/edging without cumming before I go on a ride. It works perfectly for me!

Absolutely! I've always found that if I masturbate or have sex before a workout I end up unable to give it 100% and feel weak. I save myself for after the workout.

Whether I'm just working out, running or gonna play a game of ball, I have to keep my load till afterwards. Like someone else said, it's like a reward to look forward to. It's almost like I want to keep it and not spend it till I get home. I feel too relaxed after I ejaculate and don't feel that get up n go and perform my best in a game or workout.

I recover pretty fast in that respect. The shortest amount of time between shooting and the gym was about 20 mins. I still had pretty good effort in the gym. After it I always seem to have a strong urge to shoot again.

 

[hairynycstud]

beat it after workout...if beat monkey before too mellow to push weights...after get that testerone surge need that release

 

[joe_average_]

Yep, like others have said, it's my reward afterwards. Makes my workout more intense. If I'm really horned up, I even precum during my workout.

 

[meningreentights]

It definitely affects my workout. I have been kicked out of three gyms for humping the bench while doing leg curls.

 

[open501s]

school coach always told us no sex during training / season.
several boxers stay out away from bed room entertainment during training / season.
I've tried it and I am quite happy with the effects in the gym.

 

[D_22]

Yeah, I'm more mellow if i work out after masturbating. When I'm horned up and haven't released for a while, I feel like i work out better and more intensely.

Only when I'm in a public gym. lol

 

[bigman777]

I also find that if I jack off or have sex before a workout I'm not able to give 100% in the gym, so I try to time my trips to the gym before any hookups or wait to jack off until after I've worked out!
