An important aspect of self-control of the Greek athletes was their sexual abstinence. Just as today the Greeks wondered if sex before the contest was a good idea. The answer was negative. Sperm was seen as a source of masculinity and strength, two qualities you better had at your disposal during the games." ancientolympics.arts.kuleuven.be
"To avoid erections, athletes applied the technique of infibulation." ancientolympics.arts.kuleuven.be
"The doctor Aretaeus (1st century ad) said, ‘If any man is in possession of semen, he is fierce, courageous and physically mighty, like beasts. Evidence for this is to be found in athletes who practise abstinence.’ "
nocturnal emissions? nothing but a relapse:"‘A flattened lead plate is an object to be placed under the muscles of the loins of an athlete in training, chilling them whenever they might have nocturnal emissions of semen." spectator.co.uk
NOFAP info thread
Plutarch, Quaestiones Convivales 8.4, 724e includes the following observation (in the course of a discussion of why palm fronds are awarded to victorious athletes, here suggesting that it is because they share the quality of sterility): ‘as for an athlete, its shapeliness uses up all its nourishment for building up the body, so that what is left for the production of seed is very little, and of poor quality’.
As so often, Philostratus’ Gymnasticus is one of the best places to look for the question of how these views impacted on day-to-day training:
"Those who come to the gymnasium straight after sex are exposed by a greater number of indicators when they train, for their strength is diminished and they are short of breath and lack daring in their attacks, and they fade in colour in response to exertion, and they can be detected by signs of that sort; and when they strip, their hollow collar-bones give them away, their poorly structured hips, the conspicuous outline of their ribs, and the coldness of their blood. These athletes, even if we dedicated ourselves to them, would have no chance of being crowned [i.e. winning victory] in any contest. The part beneath the eyes is weak, the beating of their hearts is weak, their perspiration is weak, their sleep, which controls digestion, is weak, and their eyes glance around in a wandering fashion and indicate an appearance of lustfulness…. If an athlete has just had sex, it is better for him not to exercise. In what sense are they men, those who exchange crowns and victory announcements for disgraceful pleasures? But if they must undergo training, let them be trained, but with the caveat that their strength and their breathing must be closely observed; for these are the things which are damaged most by the pleasures of sex. (Gymnasticus 48 and 52)"
nope, imma fape 40 times in a row right fucking now
you can watch i dont mind
There are four gate-keepers at the entrance to the Realm of Freedom. They are Santi (self-control or quietness of mind), Vichara (spirit of inquiry), Santosha (contentment) and Satsanga (good company). The wise seeker should diligently cultivate the friendship of these, or at least one of them.
When the mind is at peace, pure, tranquil, free from delusion or hallucination, untangled and free from cravings, it does not long for anything nor does it reject anything. This is self-control or conquest of mind.
All that is good and auspicious flows from self-control. All evil is dispelled by self-control. No gain, no pleasure in this world or in heaven is comparable to the delight of self-control. The delight one experiences in the presence of the self-controlled is incomparable. Everyone spontaneously trusts him. None (not even demons and goblins) hates him.
Self-control, O Rama, is the best remedy for all physical and mental ills. When there is selfcontrol, even the food you eat tastes better, else it tastes bitter. He who wears the armour of selfcontrol is not harmed by sorrow.He who even while hearing, touching, seeing, smelling and tasting what is regarded as pleasant and unpleasant, is neither elated nor depressed — he is self-controlled. He who looks upon all beings with equal vision, having brought under control the sensations of pleasure and pain, is self-controlled. He who though living amongst all is unaffected by them, neither feels elated nor hates, even as one is during sleep — he is self-controlled.
go ahead
those who would fap should fap,so as to let Nature ruin their bodies and make them unfit to reproduce
Body – This body is composed of flesh, bones, fat, nerves, tendons and blood. It is a home to various diseases and is filled with impurities. Ego lives in this body as the master with greed as the mistress. It is being bitten by the serpent of the ever-increasing desires of the five senses. People without this true Knowledge begin to droop in their minds and thus shorten their lives. I do not rejoice in this life of mine which darts like a flash of lightning in the cloud of delusion and ignorance. The body is like a bubble that will burst at any time. The shining skin is subject to wrinkles in old age.There is nothing so hurtful as this life which is perishable and temporary in nature.

Miles Davis Jazz Legend
"Davis: You can't come [cum], then fight or play. You can't do it. When I get ready to come, I come. But I do not come and play. Interviewer: Explain that in layman's terms. Davis: Ask Muhammad Ali. If he comes, he can't fight two minutes. shyt, he couldn't even whip me. Interviewer: Would you fight Muhammad Ali under those conditions, to prove your point? Davis: You're goddam right I'd fight him. But he's got to promise to fukk first. If he ain't going to fukk, I ain't going to fight. You give up all your energy when you come. I mean, you give up all of it! So, if you're going to fukk before a gig, how are you going to give something when it's time to hit?"

“Plato’s dialog stresses the intellect over the physical because of the risk of slavish dependent on physical desires. In this context, Plato recommends reduced erotic engagement to better exercise and control the mind. In other words, sexual activity is only detrimental only in so far as it distracts from intellectual endeavors…Plato praises this exemplary self-control, citing famous athelete, Iccus of Tarentum, who had “possessed in is soul such art and such courage mixed with moderation that he never touched a woman—or a boy for that matter—during the entire time of his training.” Plato suggests that by consciously choosing to control sexual desires, an individual liberates the mind to better study virtue.
Socrates Greek Philosopher
“Socrates first prescribes abstinence from sexual pleasure. A conventionalized treatment of his view on sex then follows which illustrates and amplifies the earlier summary treatment of its dangers…Xenophon [one that Socrates advices] makes the wrong move and finds that though sex may be a pleasure, it makes you a slave.
What's really interesting is Ali wouldn't have sex for a month before any fight, and many classical composers including Mendelssohn said things about "losing creative vitality after orgasm."
To me this is only a better argument for having sex/masturbating only at night after a day's work, and not complete abstinence (barring athletes, ofc).
Ideal thing would be sex with no cumming
it seems there are many chinese techniques to achieve that goal
Anyways, it gives a new meaning to

In days of old, it was only celibate priests who got to read the scriptures, as this was required in order to be able to understand the deep wisdom contained within. Most of the references to continence were later expunged from the Bible by the Protestants, who claimed it was impossible for a man to be celibate, yet the early church fathers saw celibacy as proof of the power of Christ, as without divine intervention it would have been impossible for them to keep to their vows of continence. Saint Paul gives his blessing to life-long celibates when he says it is better not to marry (have sex) at all, but if you are not strong enough for that then it is better to marry, than to slowly roast in the flames of your own lust. If you cannot control your concupiscence then it is better to have a lawful release for it, than not. Although some of the Apostles were married, the traditional Church teaching is that they were continually continent after receiving the Holy Ghost, although in Hindu teaching this happens the other way around, and it is continence itself that is the catalyst for divine inspiration.
Celibacy was not just limited to certain of the priestly caste, there are plenty of instances showing that it was a foundational part of the warriors discipline in many of the Aryan tribes. The Spartans are probably the most well-known of these celibate heroes, their name is still associated with asceticism and self denial to this day. They practiced continence along with eugenics as a way of improving the virility of their racial stock and gained a fearsome reputation through doing so, just like the later nations who were to do the same.
Bishop Salvian from the fifth century AD writes that the barbarians who were besieging Rome were shocked at the licentiousness they found there. They rejected incontinence and fornication, holding them to be great crimes and were horrified at the moral decadence in Latin society. Salvian also speaks of the Goths as being treacherous yet continent, and the Saxons as being savagely cruel, but remarkable for their chastity. They punished adultery with death, and even those familiarities between the sexes that are generally deemed innocent, were strictly prohibited to unmarried persons. The Vandals are recorded as managing to retain their moral superiority not only in Spain, but even when among the Negroes of Africa. They saw the vices which had infected Greece and Rome as an abomination and forced prostitutes to marry, as well as enacting other severe laws against immorality, compelling the Romans to be honorable against their will.
King Alfred the Great, the famous British Saxon King was once so alarmed at how debilitating the sexual urge could be, that he prayed for the Lord to send him haemorrhoids to distract him from it. Today it is not uncommon for sports coaches to ban their teams from seeing their wives before a match or tournament, hoping that just short term abstinence will provide an edge over the opposing team.

I fap and drink my own semen
Out of flesh comes fat. Out of fat comes bone. Out of bone comes marrow. Out of marrow comes semen. Conversion of Dhatu at every step takes a period of five days. Thus semen is the last Dhatu that is formed out of food. It takes approximately 30 days and 4 hours to complete this cycle. Scientists believe that an intake of 32 kgs. Of food produces 800 Gms. of blood, which in turn forms only 20 Gms. of semen. Now, you can see how precious the semen is! Modern medical opinion Eminent European Medical experts also support the statements of the Yogis of India. Dr. Nicole says, "It is a medical and physiological fact that the best blood in the body goes to form the elements of reproduction in both the sexes. In a pure and orderly life, this matter is reabsorbed. It goes back into circulation ready to form the finest brain, nerve and muscular tissues. This vital fluid of man carried back and diffused through his system makes him manly, strong, brave and heroic. If wasted, it leaves him effeminate, weak and physically debilitated and prone to sexual irritation and disordered function, a wretched nervous system, epilepsy and various other diseases and death. The suspension of the use of the generative organs is attained with a notable increase of bodily, mental and spiritual vigour." If the spermatic secretion in man is continuous, it must either be expelled or be reabsorbed. As a result of the most patient and preserving scientific investigations, it has been found that whenever the seminal secretions are conserved and thereby reabsorbed into the system, it goes towards enriching the blood and strengthening the brain. Dr. Dio Louis thinks that the conservation of this element is essential to strength of body, vigour of mind and keenness of intellect.

Are you fuckin retarded? Before you come on an American board learn how to speak English retard
Fuck man, I've tried no fap but I can only seem to make it about 2 weeks before fapping.
I was reading into low T and I think this might be the case. Brain fog, anxiety, lack of motivation, poor libido, etc..
Could injecting testosterone fix our problems?
>an american Board
Guess that explains all the shots!!
this
it gives you superpowers
i laughed
i too have brain fog man :(
what factors lead you to fap?
what do you fap to?
accept this and change the scenario
Doing NoFap now and found a fool-proof way to avoid the "relapse" as they call it.
ITT: we have an Argentinian Dr.Phil helping us out
LOL
mainly boredom and sexual frustration
Keeping occupied and finding a gf is pretty tough when you have a motivation problem
I'm gonna see a doctor about this
boredom?
go train for race war you fucking leaf
>frustration
if you werent such a wanker you would be a solid,non-cucked men and females would want to damn their spiritual fates by fornication with you
you're not in Venezuela where life IS miserable.
you are comfy. you have 0 excuse for fapping
NOFAP makes you a living Budha
fap makes you a literal slave of the jew
>have a motivation problem
>gonna see a doctor about this
>So user tell me about this motivation problem you have.
Got up to a 13 day no fap streak last month. On my way to breaking that now.
I'm not really sure if it's a placebo or if legitimately has medical proof. Either way it has worked a lot for me.
Thanks for promoting the cause Argentinian friend :)
What do you suggest is the best cycle? like fap once every two weeks?
also never sleep on your belly
the blood presurre causes erection and then wet dreams
Give yourself a couple times of month to jack off and binge shitpost. That's what I do.
Just stopping completely is ideal but if you are addicted you arent gonna be able to. Try to cut down the amount you down by half every day/every week.
I don't think fapping once in a while would kill you but I think you gotta fully reset your sexual life first. Once you do that I think you are fine to fap once a week
once a week is too fucking much
he's gonna be a girl losing that much testosterone
You don't lose testosterone from masturbating.
thanks for the advice, i need to change myself and fast- ive been fapping like 3 times a day , kill me
what do you suggest then ,hoss
Never fapping.
even if have sex just do seminal retention.
seriously.
whats wrong with never fapping?
I fap once every 7 days or i become a FUCKING ANIMAL , super aggressive , i get mad at everything
i heard that if you dont blow loads it can lead to testicular cancer, probably bullshit though
Day nine reporting.
day -1 reporting :(
it IS bullshit
proof FOR nofap.
Imagine being a soldier and not being able to muster aggression...if vikings had been wankers they would have stayed put on their farms
good going bro!!
you can beat the jew machine
Taking a cold shower every morning is also good.
You feel great when you come out.
I need to start doing that again.
being italian is suffering
how cold is cold enough?
I always use max cold which almost hurts the skin because i have strong urges
but glorious roman empire
i meant in the sense that we are horny fuckers
My mom is from Sicily, and im horny as fuck 24/7 interdasting
idk man to completely abstain will not make you stronger if you ask me the 7days test peak could have to do with this an Alpha male is designed to fuck pussy once and a while
Does masturbation make you gay? Or is it porn/Sup Forums mindfucking me.
read on Spartans, Hindu warriors, so on.
they fucked for reproduction only.
im not making that up..I suffer from this facts, i dont WANT to fight my lust
but I most.
its the right thing
we are more nigger than niggers in that perspective.
Ence the im not white im italian
frequent manipultation of cocks is not very masculine
This sounds like something an armchair psychologist would say...
Doesn't mean it isn't true though. Thanks
Guys I want to try this, but I need some motivation. I cannot remember the last time I went a single day without fapping at least twice in the past 5 years: I have a problem. I even fapped until 1:00 on Christmas Eve. The shit i fap to is becoming increasingly more degenerate. Help me, please!
That's why you should do it. Prove that you can live without it. Prove to yourself you don't need to cum every day to live.
they could have been doing it the wrong way, there is a more effective way of doing it. You don't have to copy the 2000-3000 year old method.
watch an old movie of clint eastwood..have a masculine role-model
hate degenernacy
print a poster of a boxer if you need
you need to look up to someone to emulate
there can't be too many people who get that reference in the image
More broscience: looking at pictures of Pillar Men for extended periods of time while listening to "Awaken My Masters", naturally raises testosterone levels and causes muscle growth.
What's the problem? I do it too but I don't waste much time on it.
it makes you lose vitalitity
