We work out about the same amount of time, do the same routine, and have the same determination to get buff and toned. His muscles are growing much faster than mine. He says he doesn't masturbate that much – like once a week – so that his testosterone will be saved up for muscle development. I masturbate at least once a day, and I think maybe this is why I'm not getting as much muscle as him. Does masturbation lower your testosterone so that muscle development is highly affected?
No, sexual activity – be it masturbation, oral sex, or intercourse – doesn't have any effect on muscle growth. Also, holding back from masturbating won't cause your body to "save up" testosterone, so your friend isn't doing himself any special favors. The body's ability to build muscle varies naturally from person to person; even members of the same family may have genetic differences in this regard. So, either masturbate or choose not to – your body will look the same either way.
Do you find yourself masturbating more often during some seasons than others? Why?
