Does semen retention help you land tricks?

[Benevenstanciano]

Just curious 👉👈

[Jewel Runner]

The only time I landed a halfcab flip I hadn't ejaculated for a month

[Sativa Lung]

Retention is only an issue if you don't drink enough

[Billy Bitchcakes]

What do you mean by that? I certainly don't drink enough water

[Sila]

No, but it does aid me in seeking pleasure outside of wanking so yes it can help in landing tricks.

[Steely Daniel]

If you're battling a trick just politely edge yourself off to the side before every try and when you finally land it you'll cream right through your Dickies into another dimension.

How has this conversation become a thing?

I remember boxers discussing this in the 80s and saying that they couldn't jerk-off or have sex the night before a match, but this whole Puritan/4chan "degenerate" thing about not jerking off being this mainstream discussion is so weird to me.

Like, when did this pseudo-secularized sexual repression discussion become mainstream? Is Joe Rogan pushing this or something?

Not having sex or jerking it sucks. I can't see any reason not to do these things unless I convert to being part of some fundamentalist cult.

[Ignatius J Reilly]

yeah, totally. stop jerking off for a week and the first few days are kinda annoying but on days 4-7 you can walk through walls. anything beyond a week just makes you too high-strung to exist

[exlurker]

Seems to be going great for the Catholic church's clergy, them dudes are crushing it

[backside_frontside]

Yeah the whole not jerking it gives you super powers thing is super weird and dumb as fuck

[Christmas Complete]

Depends on where you keep it.

[aleksander]

But if you don't cum, how will you pass a drug test?

[TheLurper]

Yeah the whole not jerking it gives you super powers thing is super weird and dumb as fuck

quite the opposite. I've heard guests, Theo Von specifically, talk about not watching porn or sprayin' out and Joe kinda laughs and scoffs at it. the truth is, semen retention boosts your testosterone slightly, so from a physical activity and athletic stand point, it SHOULD have some affect. I know that if I'm planning on skating or getting a hard (no pun intended) workout in, I will refrain from having sex or showing myself a good time

I once had really intense sex with a girlfriend and then tried to race my bike in the state championships later that day, only to find that my escapades had temporarily erased a few weeks of training.

I find it interesting that, for some many people, there's a conflation of "nofap" and "semen retention" with no pornography. Don't people have imaginations or memories?

no fap is essentially based in and surrounds overcumming pr0n addiction, which is a very real thing for a lot of men. the two things often do get tied together, but I've never heard of someone going the "no fap," route because they jerk off to old memories too much. you should check out the no fap message boards if you have some time to kill. some dudes are just as addicted to porn as they would be to drugs.

one thing I've somewhat enjoyed about being in my 30s is that I know longer am controlled by and am thinking with my dick.

I think this whole myth is because of that scene in raging bull when Jake LaMotta beats the shit out of his wife.

I think the no sex before fights thing was always more due to women being a distraction before a big event.  The no fap thing is weird, giving up porn can be a good thing if you're struggling with ED or some shit.  Not letting the poison out just seems sick to me though.

I swear I recently saw something about how banishing the monster once a day is associated with lower incidence of of prostate cancer.

[pool coping]

definitely gotta time that shit imo

busting a nut usually makes me feel lethargic

[changed1]

Quitting pot helped me skate better. The energy I have is twice that from when I smoked. My push even feels more powerful and I can skate for twice as long

I saw this the other day as well.

Just chiming in to say I’m willing to help with this. (Offer limited to those over 50 years of age only)

[BurgerCop]

Depends on where you keep it.

On an old sock next to my bed, am I doing it right?

[MOE SYZLAK]

It def will help you not get kicked out of the spot.
