Doing a little more digging on this, apparently this study has been published in China, nothing wrong with that on itself, but it has since been retracted, part of the original authors can no longer be found and the original data cannot be obtained, so I would view this work with huge dollop of salt. I am no scientist by any means, but from personal experience the biggest issue with masturbation is that it is a self gratification for no effort. There is no win here as viewed by the culture of actually making an effort and finding a partner etc. For most guys out there I would say that this activity also is not very assuring for self image and since testosterone levels have apparently been shown to raise from archiving goals, wins etc. it can be seen how repeated masturbation or porn addiction can over time lower testosterone and lead to lower self image and poorer performance in the real world dating game as well as affect performance in the gym. My own experience with prolonged abstinence (2 weeks pus) has been overall positive, even though it can be a placebo effect, but if it helps its all good.

Coming from someone who has gone down the road of porn addiction and recovery, I highly caution anyone against regular masturbation. While the benefits stated here may be good and studies are showing benefits, the long term effect of regular masturbation through porn has also shown severe effects on the brain, specifically the male brain. Andrew Huberman, who I know Jeff has stated he likes and respects before, has a ton of information available on this topic and I encourage everyone to go watch those and just weigh the pros and cons using the information here and the information in Andrew's videos. A great one to start with is Andrew Huberman - How Addiction Destroy's Men's brains. No hate toward Jeff here, love most of everything he teaches and does, just trying to share my side.

Oxytocin will make people fatigued for the next 24hrs.
But there's a much more dangerous side effect, research shows it will nullify androgen receptors.
If these are nullified (a lock already filled with a key everyday) no amount of Testosterone will matter, which is both mentally and physically dangerous. Your T will not be transcribing any masculine traits. In terms of fitness, you'll have increased body fat; especially abdominal, and decreased lean muscle mass. This is a vicious cycle as increased abdominal and body fat will also decrease T levels and increase estrogen levels. Lower energy, can cause anxiety/depression, low drive/libido, osteoporosis etc.
Keep your hand away, it'll wreck you.

I want Jeff to cover the mentality of this subject with science on the back burner. People lean into vices a lot and you can lose your drive if you delve into them too much, especially ones that release a feeling of tranquility and relaxation seemingly on demand.
Why do you think people get bored of their favorite shows? Why do people begin to lose interest in a game they haven't even beaten yet? Aren't those meant to be relaxing hobbies that make us happy?
The subject can be complicated, especially when more people discuss it at once. I want the more abstract side of physical wellbeing to be discussed.

My main gripe with this thing is that jacking off can easily burn off all your Dopamine reserve, which will turn you demotivated to perform the workout in the first place. Human beings are geared to follow the path of least resistance, and if there is not enough raw materials to create dopamine and other feel-good chemicals inside you, the brain will always choose watching porn and to have orgasm over feeling uncomfortable from workout and going for the long term pleasure (feeling good about your physique, getting attention from girls, etc etc.

Try nofap/ semen retention for 100 days and you'll see a lot of benefits. Be your own scientist. If you have never tried nofap for 90 days, you can't laugh off it. Se xual energy is one of the most strong one in human nature, if you can control it you'll be able to achieve great things in the gym and in other areas of life. Also, try different form of relaxation like cold showers (not immediatly after training beacuse you ll LOSE YOUR GAINS, praying and meditation. Cheers

I've fapped 10-20 mins before workout for months and i can say it actually gives you gains, muscle strength but you'll feel weak until you do good warmup and push yourself. also after-fap (4-5 hrs later you hit top testo level)peak testosterone helps with recovery.
If you can just replace hand with a partner it will give you more pleasure, maybe you might not feel weak or wasted.

As a lifetime martial artist, I have to say busting nuts does make you weaker. Sorry, idc what research there is, they should have researched the effects of prolactin release after orgasm. Specifically it makes your legs weaker. These studies are the equivalent of don't believe your lying eyes! . I have seen the difference fighting first hand.

if porn was good for you or non harmful in any way, the controlling tribe of the world who controls and owns the industry, would NEVER EVER EVER allow ANY of it to be consumed and shared for free by the entire internet.
Believe it. sort of how if voting mattered, you wouldn't be allowed to do it.
Simple as that

So, how does this work since for a man during the stroking phase its a parasympathic (rest and digest breed and feed) function, but after climax it's sympathetic (fight or flight? I could see a before workout you are jacked, but before bed wouldn't that depress your sleep? I have heard people roll over and fall a sleep.

When I abstain for long periods of time, I feel much more motivated, masculine, stronger and energetic. Not to even mention the confidence.
Maybe if you fap without pron its not so bad, but its a proven fact pron is extremely unhealthy for your brain, it literally looks in the brain much the same as doing cocaine.

If you are aroused without orgasm during your workout you will actually push yourself more, it is a primal instinct to fight other males to be the one who takes the female. However if you do orgasm before finishing or before even starting you will most likely not want to do anything at all anymore.

Any data that shows a difference between fapping and old fashions from your wife? Lol i swear its like south park and i get tired and am ready for bed right after. But when ive done the deed myself i actually get anxious, uncomfortable and feel like a lousy, gluttonous, filthy sinning bastard.

I don't even need to watch this. If you have at least two brain cells to rub together, you know for a fact that getting some hand action from time to time would have ZERO impact on your gains and even IF it has any, it would be negligeable.

We're surrounded by nakedness everywhere. Men have become weak and that's the fact. Instead of faping, exercise build up conf. and you'll find a girl, we're just animals, women are looking for testosterone.
