Does Masturbation affect Muscle Growth? Short Answer is “NO”, but this doesn’t mean you start fapping because long answer is different.

If you have higher level of Testosterone then you get more urge to masturbate, higher Testosterone means more sex drive and lower Testosterone means lower sex drive.

It’s very common myth and misunderstanding that so called coaches tell you when you first reach them to train you that “You have to control your sex Life” or “You have to stop masturbating” if you want to increase muscle size.

Testosterone is known to help build muscles because it assists the muscles in synthesizing protein. Research shows that short periods of abstinence may cause noticeable spikes in T levels. Refraining from masturbation or sexual activity for about seven days before a workout may help you build muscle somewhat faster. More research is needed to better understand this connection.

Infact after 30 or 60 minutes of masturbating your testosterone level increases its just how your body is build, because of natural function of recovery in the body your body tends to increase testosterone level to recover loss of sperms that you just ejaculated.

Masturbation is a healthy and safe sexual activity that has links to numerous health benefits, such as pain relief and stress reduction. Opinions on how masturbation affects exercise vary, but there is not enough evidence to support one view over the other.

Conclusion:

Excess of everything is bad. If you are masturbating even 3 days a week then in simple how can you build muscle? and you also know that even 3 days are more than enough because releasing more sperms means lower testosterone and lower testosterone means fatigue, pain, slow recovery, tiredness. So eat health, keep your body in motion then you will have no issue. I’ll be discussing same thing in another Topic with complete explanation and details. For now just remember masturbating doesn’t affect muscle growth.
