Does Sex/Masturbation Hinder Gains

I think it depends on the length of the session (40min - 1hr+). I’ve found long bouts of edging having the same effect on my penis as if I had wanked for the purpose to ejac several times close together. Multiple ejaculation would leave me worn out in the head and body, while prolonged edging gave my penis that temporary tired, sore feel that comes with beating off multiple times, but the brain wasn’t as overworked leaving me depleted of energy.

Simply tell her it’s a way to enhance your stamina. Which is also true.

Okay, I know… :(
But I was doing PE at the same time so I had only one hand free… >.<

No good excuse but, sure.. I’ll be proper next time :)

Thank you sir!

Seems like I’ve seen plenty of threads on this issue that led me to believe that having sex had no effect on your gains. If it does, that is a problem. They whole reason I’m doing PE is to improve my sex life with my wife. Limiting the number of times we have sex in order to improve the sex seems to be counterproductive.

Bit of a catch 22 there

“What the fuck is a catch-22 burt”

It’s a book. Read it and you will get it. :)

I for one do not buy that ejaculating hinders gains…never have, never will.. Like I have said before, if anyone can explain to me the physiological factors for why ejaculating slows down/hinders gains, be my guest.

In my opinion you should have sex, have fun and please your self and your wife. No harm in trying dry orgasms, just saying that i think all this “limit your ejaculations”-philosophies are hogwash.

This post makes me smile :)
As far as I understand, you’re not exactly the “macho” type :)

Dude ejaculation has a high price: it’s taxing your power. Read some books of “Mantak Chia” if you like, he has some very good books in which he discusses this deeply. What is said is true- consider my words.

I’ve done sex both ways (with and without ejaculations), and I know the difference.
Sex doesn’t mean ejaculation. This confusion is understandable, since everybody watches porn, and all sex finishes with ejaculation in porn, as if it’s a law.

Good Luck.

I believe that regular sex or masturbation (2-5times a week) is beneficial to the penis but excessive (2-5 times per day) is counterproductive. Don’t forget to mch of a good thing can be a bad thing.

And everytime I read you saying this, kaan, I smile.

You make ejaculation sound like the worst thing a “real” man can do, when in fact, physiologically, we are built to do this.

Each man has a different reaction to sex/masturbation and ejaculating or not when they do either. I can see, readily, that if a guy happens to be one of those few who are absolutely sapped and exhausted, mentally and physically, after cumming that they would want to limit the experience to some very special occasions.

Generally, though, we pop back to “prime,” and quite quickly. And it feels real good. And it’s a healthy process for our reproductive organs. And satisfying to us and to our partners. And our erections don’t decrease in size each time we do it - otherwise we’d all do it only until our genetalia became threateningly small.

I know you are going to tell me and others to read “Mantak Chia” for the “truth.” The truth is that not ejaculating on some regular basis runs counter to human/male design.

“faking orgasms” avocet. That’s what makes me smile :)
Not ejaculating has nothing to do with being a “real man” either. Actually quite the contrary: many men think “shooting a big load ,multiple times” makes them better lovers(?)

You say ejaculation is natural, healthy, pleasurable, … Alright. That’s your view.
What I say is this: I’ve seen it both ways, so I can compare by my own observations. I am being honest here: what I say is my truth.

And everybody has their own minds to think about it, or to experiment with it, to check for themselves if they like. I say non-ejaculatory sex is much better. MUCH better.

Regards.

My theory about this was in my earlier post in this thread:

Lampwick - The “Does Sex/Masturbation Hinder Gains” Debate

My experience is that if I ejaculate, I experience a refractory period, and my penis loses its temporary PE size increase more rapidly than if I did not ejaculate.

My theory is that it is good for PE if I remain larger for a longer period of time by not triggering my refractory period by ejaculating immediately post-PE.
