I am not sure, but I noticed my right arm is bigger then my left one.

Tot, judging by the muscles showing up in your avatar, you must not be getting much close to training time!

Only if you add weights to your cock ring and use proper form that includes the hamstrings and glutes.
"Perhaps, but sex during training tends to upset the folks at my gym.... "
Shoot, it wouldnt upset me... I have been looking for one of those hardcore gyms...

That would require lot's of SD.

Well I'll try to be a little more serious
Sex could if it's good sex, act as an anti-stress activity. This can counter cortisol levels and thereby facilitate testosterone production. Also physical intimasy between adults in context of a loving relationship with mutual affection tend to enhance growth hormone levels in both partners.
That sounded tiddlywiddlypiddly-cute
A study from 1997(Heidenreich) found no change in levels of serum testosterone at either 1 or 24 hours after ejaculation.

Fausto
HST Expert
Guys...this has become one silly thread...we should be discussing HST and means to better it.
Not to say that I am at alll against finding disverse opinions about the topic but really there is only so much one can find.
The matter remains that only those extremelly serious...and silly IMO
would skip sex to keep strength or gains or whatever but if we really analyse whatever research is there about the matter those are nothing but an insignificant drop in the ocean
It is obvious that it will deplete one's energy before training, but only if it is practiced way close to the training time, that is obvious as one can spend quite a bit of energy doing this, depending on experience and personal preference. I don't however see what a quicky would deplte that would influence one's traiuning so badly!
My point...we have depleted this subject, IMO!

Yep you're right Fausto. Things got a little silly..but I also think that sex is a pretty important factor in overall well being that in the end can cause possible results in training. Combined with other lifestylefactors it can make quite an impact on health, stress and mental outlook. I'm thinking of stuff like sleep, sunlight, smoking, sex and relationships and alcohol (24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence?
)

I think the OP's question is interesting as in "are there studies indicating positive or negative effects of orgasm in hypertrophy and strength training due to hormonal changes?".
We did, though, get silly

That said, it occurs to me that to eliminate the relaxed feeling from ejaculation in a workout, one could perform some coitus interruptus, go do the workout, then come back to it for a finisher.
See? Warmup, workout, and cardio all in one. You just have to get HER to go along with it...
