Alright, so let’s talk about this whole “ejaculation before workout” thing. I’ve heard a bunch of chatter about it, online, even some guys at the gym, you know? Some swear it gets them focused, others say it just drains you. Me, I’m all about figuring things out for myself. Can’t just take someone’s word for it, especially with gym stuff.
My Little Experiment
So, I decided, what the heck, I’ll give it a go. Wasn’t super scientific, just me, myself, and I, trying to see what’s what. I picked a day I was planning a pretty standard workout, nothing too crazy, nothing too light. Just a regular Tuesday, I think it was, chest and triceps day.
I figured, let’s do the deed about, say, an hour before I usually head out. So, I, uh, handled my business. You know. Afterward, I didn’t feel instantly tired or anything. Maybe a bit… chill? Yeah, chill is the word. Not really amped up like I usually try to be before a workout.
Got my gear, drank my water, headed to the gym. The walk there felt normal. Warm-up on the treadmill, also pretty standard. I thought, “Hey, maybe this isn’t so bad.”
Then Came the Weights
Then I got to the bench. My first working set. And man, it felt different. Not like I was weaker, exactly. It was more like the… the spark wasn’t there. You know that aggressive feeling you get when you’re about to push some heavy weight? That “let’s go!” feeling? It was kinda muffled.
I pushed through my sets, but it was a grind. Each rep felt a bit harder, not physically, but mentally. My focus was just… off. I usually get in the zone, music blasting, just me and the iron. This time, my mind kept wandering. Felt like I was going through the motions.
- My energy levels felt lower than usual.
- The drive to push for that extra rep? Barely there.
- I felt more passive, less aggressive in my lifts.
I finished my chest workout, but it wasn’t satisfying. Moved on to triceps, and it was the same story. Just felt… flat. I even thought about cutting the workout short, which I almost never do.
I tried this a couple more times, just to be sure it wasn’t a one-off. Once before a leg day – big mistake. That was just awful. Felt like I had jelly legs before I even did my first squat. Another time before a back and biceps day, same subdued feeling.
So, What’s the Verdict for Me?
Look, I’m not a doctor or a scientist. I’m just a guy who likes to lift and share what I find out. And for me, personally? Ejaculation before a workout is a solid no-go. It just kills my intensity, my focus, my overall drive in the gym. I felt like I was operating at 70%.
Maybe it works for some dudes. Maybe their body chemistry is different. I’ve heard some say it calms their nerves if they are too jittery. But for me, I need that edge, that bit of aggression. That “get stuff done” feeling. And this just wasn’t it.
So yeah, I went ahead and tried it. Logged it in my mental notebook. And the conclusion is clear: I’ll be keeping my, uh, “personal time” well away from my gym time. It’s just how my body reacted. Live and learn, right? Back to my usual routine of a good meal, some loud music, and hitting the weights with full steam.
