The biggest benefit with NOFAP.
"When you abstain from ejaculation your androgen receptors upregulate, allowing more testosterone,etc to 'get through' to your brain. This allows more testosterone to actually do its thing in your brain (increased assertiveness, well being, etc) without an actual increase in blood plasma concentrations"
Tell me why you're not taking advantage of this?
This is why you get those mental boosts that makes you more "alpha" and care free.
testosterone peaks at 6 days before declining slightly

Broooooooooooscience
how is it that your test doesn't increase? i feel damn near rabid when i don't bust a nut for several days. the science has to be missing something major.
This why I only fap once a week kek.
It does increase?
This is why boxers don't fuck or fap weeks before fights
lmao this is some bullshit. virtually nothing "natural" that you do is going to change your test levels to the point of major impact. just fucking hop on the bike or get on with yourself
That quote couldn't be more full of shit.
"Slightly" elevated natural testosterone in a body that is far more receptive to it is as good as low doses of gear.
It even makes working out and eating right far more impactful.

Masturbation and rampant sexuality is used as a way to pacify and control the masses.

No
That feeling you get on no fap is not your test.
It's your cortisol, it has more to do with your adrenal than your gonads.
If you change your diet, start working out, spend more time in the sun you can double your test if you weren't doing those things.

tldr: It does increase test but temporarily. However, not ejaculating will eventually decrease the levels even more. For peak levels, only ejaculate every seven days.
>without an actual increase in blood plasma concentrations
Uh uh. It peaked after seven days.
However, we know that men are highly sensitive to certain stimuli and waiting.
The mere idea that they could fuck or have sex on the last day might have given a false reading.
But that is fairly improbable.
Anyway, it's been shown that as long as you abstain from masturbation you will have a far higher level of test then someone who masturbates frequently or even infrequently.
>not ejaculating will eventually decrease the levels even more
Where does it say that?
>Try nofap multiple times.
>Fall off that bus about 2-3 weeks in every time.
>"Nah, user, it's noporn that's the path to enlightenment."
>Delete all porn, go completely cold turkey.
>Still fapping 2-3 times a day, but not to degenerate fetishes like I was.
>No other significant changes.
Was I expecting too much or should I try to cut down and transition to nofap again?
read op again
your test levels =/= sensitivity to test
sheeeyiitttt
checked
So you want me to limit having sex to once a week? Lol fuck off
1 year clean, never felt better
> OP mentions a mechanism completely unrelated to test levels
> everyone tries to refute it talking about test levels
are you all braindead?
>test increases for a few days
>tapers off at day 7
did you ever think it gets used for something else once it doesn't have to produce more to keep up with your faps?
Like maybe what OP said.
Sex yes
Fap no
>2016
>people still believe nofap does anything
At least call it by it's true name: Placebo
Im starting today. Fuck it guys. I feel like I've fapped to everything on the internet already. I honestly have a hard time finding porn I like that I haven't already seen. I'll spend like an hour going through a bunch of random sites looking for stuff I've never fapped to or looked at before (I have a few specific fetishes and honestly there isnt much content).
Does no-fap really benefit you? I want to hear from someone with actual experience. I fap 1-2 times a day and I havent been laid in like 5 months. I never talk to girls anymore and all I do is study and work out. Pls halp Veeky Forums
because I dont like being turned on by random non sexual things like a glop of jiggling mayonnaise which literally happened to me after not fapping for a week and a half.
The only thing stopping me from going at it was the fact I had to share a room with another dude in tight quarters for two weeks at a time.
Testosterone peaks at ~7 days, then drops sharply, sometimes coming to rest below baseline.
>this study again
Jesus we need better research than this meme broscience
Look into sexual transmutation. When you're not wasting all your sexual energy on a tissue and mommy daughter porn, you can channel it into other endeavors. Nigger.
>makes fun of broscience
>responds with the hard science of sexual transmutation
Lel @ me
Seriously though the ancient Chinese (and pretty much every other similar culture) didn't abstain from cumming for nothing. It might be hard to measure objectively but the difference is pretty stark when you're fapping regularly and then leave the solid snake alone for a while
placebo effect's still an effect m8
what are you quoting from?
