Masturbation and Testosterone

**shaun** · 04-12-2002, 11:23 PM

How many of you guys refrain from masturbation or sex due to fear of the lowering of testosterone levels?

**Christopher** · 04-12-2002, 11:45 PM

it doesnt work like that, try the SEARCH button.

**SchwarzeN!GGER** · 04-13-2002, 12:52 AM

could somebody please just make this a sticky??? I am sick of so many threads about this.

**andy1** · 04-13-2002, 06:15 AM

heh, sometimes it helps just to answer the guy and you wont see the post untill another week or 2. If i knew the answer i would tell yea, but if i remember correctly i think it didnt affect anything as long as it wasnt within a couple hours before your workout but im with the guys as well use the search button bro.

peace

can someone just some it up for me? masturbation is bad for growth right? do you have to refrain totally?

**daquietman** · 04-13-2002, 08:09 AM

i refrain totally except for friday nights. that when i go out with ma girlfreind and well u know... however she is still a virgin so we have fun other ways (ok head, hand jobs etc etc!) and we have been going out for the past 8-9 months.

yeah theres a lot of arguements about this. i refrain from ejaculation to keep my life blood and to keep my strength and clarity of mind and i dont wanna jerk over any old pic of a some whore. i keep my natural juice. yeah go and do your 'scientific' studies but i have made great gains by refraining. yes c'mon argue with me. good night

**SDAthlete** · 04-13-2002, 08:12 AM

we've been thru this a billion times, but since ure new... YES it does affect growth, by creating a reduction of the pump after/while lifting, bc when u jerk u increse bloodflow to the penis, which essentially uses the exact same "blood engorging" tissues your skeletal muscles do, hence detracting from bb'ing "pumps"... second, it DOESNT reduce testosterone my friends...BUT it does release many nerotransmitters and the like and creates an overall sense of displacedness post-orgasm (smoking after sex, sleeping right away) this is because masturbation (sex) is a very tiring and energy consuming process! right? tell me the last time u sprinted to the gym after u had a huge O...heh never...ne way it doesnt DIRECTLY decrease gains but it would actually be quite beneficial to masturbate less frequently, say once a week, instead of 3-5 times (or everyday for some of us...) it will, in the end help you focus on your goals better and have more of a pump in the gym--and the energy to do it!
PLEASE dont FLAME this post.... cause i am expecting many of you to tell me how wrong i am, but i am speaking with complete truthfulness here...this is a credible and factual post
thank you

If I read one more post about choking the donkey and test levels I am going to kill someone

**kye90** · 04-13-2002, 08:41 AM

i know a guy that has about 5 wanks a day. he doesnt lift, and hes the skinny pigeon chested type.

i have 1 or 2 wanks a week (both in the same session) and i dunno.... mentally i feel like im making more progress but physically i dunno if it really affects it all that much. as long as u keep the 2 seperated by about 5 hours. i mean u dont wanna start benchin' with the jizz still on your palms, do ye?

**SDAthlete** · 04-13-2002, 08:43 AM

just read my post above... it sums all this shiat up

Mods, this should be under the "sex" section.

Thanx

**urbanlegend** · 04-13-2002, 10:42 AM

i found a link sometime ago taht says it doesnt.........so I dont think it does, as my male cousin who is a physitian says it dont....

**Travis Stenersn** · 04-13-2002, 10:46 AM

HEre's the sum up:

Studies have shown(and yes I can pull one out if you want to see it) that masturbation produces a short lived increase in testosterone levels.

The redirected blood flow would have no effect on your gains.

Good to see someone around here that truely knows what hes talking about, some of these guys will buy into anything they here from some guy in hte gym!

**SDAthlete** · 04-13-2002, 10:55 AM

it WILL reduce pump... this is a fact, a unkown fact, but a fact nonetheless... professional bodybuilders do not orgasm for nearly a month before a show, no lie

**Travis Stenersn** · 04-13-2002, 10:59 AM

What does it matter if it reduces a pump? A pump doesn't mean growth.

And I get the feeling that the pump would be reduced by like nothing, I mean, how much blood can you fit in there!

i concur

**HeavyLifta** · 04-13-2002, 12:33 PM

i rarely do it anyway cause the day i do it, the rest of the day i feel like crap i get mad tired it really pisses me off

**B1gReDheAd** · 04-13-2002, 01:11 PM

it better not have a big effect, shiat i get my jerk on every day for the most part, although i have noticed a slight decrease in gains after i started increasing the frequency of jerkin off

**Mossma** · 04-13-2002, 09:27 PM

Well hell... I don't about you guys.........but I get stiffy's quite a bit, unless you have e.d. I don't see how you could stop the reduction in pump to happen in the first place. Flog the dolphin loud and proud fella's, ex-surgeon general thought it was good for you!

Finally someone with intelligence.

**Skytzo_Marc** · 04-13-2002, 10:27 PM

I try to avoid doing it an hour before a workout, i always notice i'm tired during the workout (even more so if it's cardio) if i spank the monkey before hitting the gym.

**OpolE** · 07-10-2009, 05:23 AM

I grew big and fast when i first started body building, i had about 4 wanks a day pretty much all summer, i still wank alot **** it, it would make u go mentle if u didn't wank, ud get boners in the gym or w/e

yeah, sprinters using steroids is very uncommon.

**Hayeder** · 07-10-2009, 05:27 AM

don't listen to these guys mann, fap away/fu-ck away or whatever. Some people go on a downer after ejaculation so just fu-ck at every oppurtunity (if you pass up a shag u are a moron tbh) and only fap at night. You will be ok, I promise.

It is very healthy to fap/fu-ck so make sure you get your 5 a day lol

**-VaScular** · 07-10-2009, 05:29 AM

lmao at your known fact

the effect of reduced pump if any would be minimal

last time i checked my penis wasnt the size of my arm, or my leg

so the "extra blood flow" into such a comparitavly small bodypart would have little to no effect on your 'pump'

if they dont wank or have sex for a month+, chances are they would have a nocturnal emission = orgasm.

**acidking** · 07-10-2009, 09:35 AM

is there any difference between ejaculating during masturbation or ejaculating generally during sex? what i read was masturbating frequently between the age of 25-30 will increase your chances of getting prostate cancer .. but i don't know if thats any different if you were to be having sex frequently ... people needs to be specific. Too much milk also known to contribute to prostate cancer later in life.
