How Frequently Should Bodybuilders Have Sex?

workout stress bodybuilding healthy toned body muscles

Sex burns a lot of calories, and at the same time, it has a direct relationship with muscle-building, too. 


So, if you’re a bodybuilder, or say an athlete, a gymnastic, or any other kind of person who does a LOT of physical activity, does sex ruin your performance? 


Well, if this question has been bothering you recently, we have put together this post, especially for you! Read till the end to figure out how much sex is too much for you. 


But first, let’s make sure you aren’t confusing the term “bodybuilding” with “fitness”. 

Bodybuilding and fitness — are they different?

They are!


Fitness is something everyone should pursue. It’s a life necessity; everyone should be doing at least a bit of workout every day to keep themselves healthy. 


If you’re hitting the gym 5 times a week, working out, and taking your proteins, you’re pursuing “fitness”. It’s not called bodybuilding. 


Bodybuilding is when you go out of the way and pursue muscle-building as a career. As a bodybuilder, you might have to take supplements that aren’t usually recommended for most people. Your muscle size would be enormous, only so you can compete in various competitions or show them off on social media and build a career out of it. 


If you’re categorizing yourself as a fitness freak, there’s no need to worry about your sex frequency. You can do it as much as you like, as frequently as you like.


However, if the definition of bodybuilding fits well with you, keep reading, as we’ve got some interesting pieces of information for you. 

So, how much sex is too much for bodybuilders?

Your body needs testosterone to build muscles at a faster pace. At the same time, you need testosterone to perform in the bed, too.


On average, your body takes around 24-48 hours to regain the lost testosterone after ejaculation. So, if you have sex today and go to work out after 5 hours, your muscles won’t grow that much. The impact won’t be too drastic, that’s why it doesn’t matter for normal people who just work out to stay fit. 


However, if you’re a bodybuilder, every bit of testosterone matters to you. So, it’s not recommended to have sex the same day you’re going to the gym. But — as you’re a bodybuilder, you’re probably hitting the gym 6 days a week. 


So, we recommended having sex only 1-2 times per week. 


This rate would give your body plenty of time to recover its testosterone to build muscle. At the same time, it’s just enough to keep your sexual desires under control. 

But, don’t hold yourself back…

A piece of advice: don’t hold your sexual desires too much. 


If you’re refraining from more frequent sex just because you want to build muscle, you aren’t doing it right!


Your body needs to stay in the optimum state to build muscles. If you’re holding yourself back from sex, your body is likely to suffer from physical stress. After all, sex is like food for your body; it’s a basic necessity. 


So, don’t yourself back if you’re sexually more active. Have sex whenever you feel like it, but refrain from doing it too often. 

Final thoughts

Your body needs testosterone to build muscle, and you need testosterone to perform in bed. 


So, you need to find the right balance between the two to excel in both activities. After all, you don’t want to get embarrassed in any of the two, do you?

I always have cold sores outbreaks when on my periods and they were very terrible, when I went for test the doctor said I had herpes virus. I just want to share a brief testimony of how Dr happy completely cured me from herpes virus with his natural medicine. It became a burden to me having outbreaks all time and it was so terrible to look upon while on mirror than going out with it so would rather lock up myself indoors all times of outbreak. I stumbled upon a testimony of someone this Herbal doctor has cured on the internet and took the doctor’s email: happylovespell2@gmail.com or WhatsApp him +234 (706) (8494) (711) to contact him. I’m completely whole today free from this virus and horrible outbreaks All thanks to Dr happy!!

I made an initial investment of roughly $380,000 on a Coastal Trading Options. After several transactions, I chose to withdraw my money because according to the website I had made a lot of profits, however the withdrawal was unsuccessful. I made several attempts in contacting them but it all failed. I made every effort and filed a report to recover my money by contacting the police department in charge of investigating fraudulent situations, but nothing was successful. Since my attempt with the police failed, I tried other possible means to make sure I recovered my scammed bitcoin. I reached out to a hacker whose reviews I had read online; Recovery Nerds, I contacted him via his email on: mailus @ recoverynerds . com, Website: https: // recoverynerds . com/ Whatsapp: +15143122803 He came in handy and at the right time. He rescued me from these shady investment schemes with the help of their top-notch services. I got my funds back as well as my peace of mind.
