Jackin off, mess with gains????

If I masturbate, does this make my gains worse? does this increase or decrease testosterone levels?

Decreases.. But it won't mess up your gains.. Assuming you don't lift within 6 hours, you won't lose any strength

hehe....6 hours, oops, my bad :D

ive noticed that if i masturbair before working out, i feel weaker during workout, and if i go a week or so without masturbaiting, i feel really strong

you can go one week? damn man you have some talent.

I can go a week, but the gym is not a good place to go on the last day. Hahahaha, girls doing deads and not masturbating for a week is a deadly combination. I dont know about it affecting strength though, you guys must be pretty hardcore.

including the old board there must have been easily like 20-30 threads regarding this.....what i have learned from them is
a) test levels are lowered for about 6 hours after you come....so a heavy leg workout is out of the question for taht time being.....(taht was a life experience of BIG CAT i believe he provided taht one)
b)As long as your nutrition is straight you should not miss out on a lot of protein in your "shot" (unless u do it like 10 times a day)
c) overall apparently there have been studies done and sexual activity increases test. in the long run....i guess not within those 6 hours but eventually....i also remember reading men's health about how getting a boner i the moring (or maybe it was jerking off in the morning) helps to circulate test. in the body.

d) on a presonal note.....i dunno how u can go a week....i think in the last few years (its not like taking out the trash, u never seem to forget :) ).....i havent gone longer taht prolly 3-4 days.....and on taht last day....i start feeling kinda depressed i dunno why :) so screw a WEEK.....i wanna be happy.

what about jackin off after your workout? is there a problem with that?

the reason i asked this because i have this theory:
When i dont wack off for a week or more, i suddenly get alot more attention from girls. I think it is because of the "sex buildup" (thats what i call it) and girls like this.

ive only gone a week only a couple times, each time i just wanted to see how long i could go without jacking off, and each time im like ok im not gonna do it for a month, and a week later ill be sitting in bed saying wow its been a week, this is crazy why am i doing this to myself, and then of course ive got a porno set up in my vcr so im like ok ill jack off lol

cramron, that was WAY more than anyone wanted to know, haha.

haha. Ya think.

man
ive gone about a month before but it was test of will
what if you do it until just before you nut like way before and then stop that will leave you horny will that incease your testoterone

the only way i could go a month or even a week without jacking off is if you fried my computer and sent me to montana because when theres a will, theres a way :D i just cant see myself not doing it, its become a habit for me, sorta like brushing your teeth. i get home, turn on the computer, open morpheus, get some porn and wack off. repeat if there is time of course :D

OMG.
I believe he asked a simple question. Now this topic is turning into a when, how, how much, and why....

hey man i asked a serious question too, will it affect anything if i jack off after i workout like within an hour?

you man jam is high in protein... i suggest playing some pocket pool after you lift.... hahahaha just kidding

yes

It will decrease your test levels at first but they will go back to normal.
Peace

not masturbating for a while gives me pimples!

lol

you've just discovered a new cure to acne.. wacking off!

hmmmmmm..... i guess i will have to jack off soon then cuz i dun want anymore pimples. THEY GOTTA GO!

Oh yeah and i cant believe this post is still up!!!!!!! Its been like 2 months since i posted this!

When I started lifting the mad desire to jack off went away. pretty strange, anyone know why?

1st of all "man jam" ROFLMAO

2nd. If your going to rub one off before ya go to the gym, PLEASE wash your hands before you go.

true it does but it so low how much it actually goes down by it WONT MAKE A DIFFERENCE, it goes down in the range 5-10ng/ml (normal blood levels in teens are 500-900ng/ml) which is due to the testes "flushing" the immdiate blood supply of test. If it did actually have an effect id be a ****ing rake, Sex before working out really ****s up through, didnt have an energy left.

Oxy nailed it.

Yah, your test levels may decrease. But they'll decrease at such a negligible value that it won't make a difference.

Also, I wouldn't worry about the amount of "protein" in semen. Again, it's so minute comparatively, it won't make ANY difference.

Beat off, be happy. I wouldn't, however, recommend it w/ in 2 hours of a workout. Ejaculating has the soothing effect of lethargy.
