    does sex affect gains while on cycle?

    does the amount of sex you have (or the number of times you ejaculate) affect your gains while on a test cycle? I know during ejaculation you release hormones and I want to know if having sex twice a week or 10 times a week makes a difference.

    Ive heard some things about this before, I doubt is enough to notice. If it hinders gains, then fine unless you're on the PRO level.

    Many pros apparently reduce the frequency of sex leading up to competitions and it is believed that it is to avoid reduction in testosterone levels . Unless you're in the sack numerous times a day seven days a week, I doubt it will have any significant impact on your levels. The other side of the coin is that sex is an aerobic event so you are burning calories, but again, unless you are having a marathon session of sex for hours on end, the total caloric burn isn't significant enough to induce a catabolic state.

    So as SK1 said, unless you're a pro athlete preparing for a competition, I wouldn't worry yourself about it. I doubt very much that many members on this forum are abstaining from sex over concerns about their testosterone . To the contrary, I suspect many members who are on cycle and have elevated levels of testosterone are probably having MORE sex.

    Be careful though the more you beat it while on the bigger you dick will grow.

    JK bro hope you have a kick ass cycle and dont let little things enter your head, because the only thing that will hinder your gains is YOU.

    Lucky you! My drive remained unchanged. Andhave as much sex as you want. Only thing that no one has mentioned yet, and it is really important, DO NOT FINISH! Before you climax, stop and go take a cold shower. haha. Just kidding.

    Dude, I've had a 5 and 8 hour marathon with my girl. I still can't believe I lasted that long!!!! It's the only time in my life a woman has actually said "please stop, I can't take this any more!" lmao!!!!!

    I've heard about boxers doin that kind of no sex thing. I really feel like it is more about mental discipline then about increasing or maintaining high test levels. In bodybuilding I don't see the necessity, at least in boxing I can understand a dude wanting to tear another motherf****rs head of after not getting laid for three months.

    It oldschool, and does have logic, their logic at time was agression, no sex = more agression and no women waiting in bed = more focus in gym

    Plus the actual act of ejaculating requires a good bit of energy, hence being tired after sex. I can always see a difference in my strength while at the gym between days I have no sex before and days I do. So no no sex before the gym for me!!

    For most I don't think it would matter if there were a connection.

    The gym I go to, there are some sexy girls doing squats in yoga pants, I have almost considered rubbing one out in the bathroom stall at the gym.

    Have as much sex and nut as often as you can. Your gains will not be affected. I'm surprised some people are even considering otherwise.

    The difference (if any) is psychological. It won't make any difference in gains (that the same amount of cardio would).
