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?

After losing 291,000 USDT to a sophisticated crypto investment scam, I was devastated, my trust shattered by the sleek promises of a fraudulent platform that vanished overnight with my life savings. Desperation led me to several so-called recovery experts, each claiming expertise but delivering only empty promises and additional fees, further deepening my financial and emotional turmoil. Just when I thought all hope was lost, a colleague mentioned Alpha Spy Nest, a cybersecurity and digital forensics team specializing in scam recovery, known for their discreet and effective approach. Skeptical but with nothing left to lose, I reached out, expecting another dead end. From the first contact, Alpha Spy Nest stood out, their team was professional, empathetic, and transparent, asking detailed questions about the scam, including transaction records, communications with the scammers, and the fake platform’s interface. They explained their process clearly: using advanced blockchain analysis, cyber forensics, and legal expertise to trace and recover lost funds. Within hours, they assigned a “Nest operative” to my case, who maintained regular communication, providing updates without overwhelming jargon. Their team meticulously traced the USDT through multiple wallet addresses, identifying patterns that linked the funds to a network of scam-operated accounts. They collaborated with blockchain analysts and leveraged their law enforcement connections to freeze some of the assets before they could be laundered further. The process wasn’t instant, it took weeks of persistent effort but their determination never wavered. They uncovered that my funds had been split across several exchanges, and through a combination of legal pressure and technical expertise, they managed to recover 85% of my 291,000 USDT, an outcome I never thought possible. Alpha Spy Nest didn’t just recover my funds, they restored my faith in the possibility of justice in the murky world of crypto scams. Their professionalism, coupled with a genuine commitment to their clients, made all the difference, turning a nightmare into a story of resilience and redemption.

It all began with a promise, a promise of financial freedom on Bitcoin investments. At the time, I was cautiously optimistic about crypto. I’d dabbled in small trades, but this offer seemed different: a limited-time opportunity to join an exclusive fund managed by top-tier blockchain analysts. The website looked legitimate, peppered with glowing testimonials and logos of fake financial regulators. Greed clouded my judgment. I wired $350,000. my savings, into their platform. For weeks, the dashboard showed skyrocketing gains. I thought I was on the brink of something big. But when I tried to withdraw my supposed profits, the site locked me out. Panic set in. I’d been scammed. The shame was overwhelming. I didn’t want to tell anyone, not even my closest friends. I was desperate, searching for any glimmer of hope when I came across Dexdert Net Pro, a cyber recovery team with a reputation for handling digital fraud. I contacted them. From the very first conversation, they were clear, professional, and honest. They explained the process: tracing blockchain transactions, identifying exit nodes, and working with international financial authorities. It sounded like something out of a movie  but they made it real. They traced my transaction through blockchain ledgers, identifying wallet clusters tied to known fraud rings. Using legal pressure and collaboration with exchanges, they froze portions of the stolen funds. The process was nerve-wracking. But Dexdert’s updates were relentless, each email a flicker of hope. Then, one morning they called, We successfully recovered your funds. It’s being routed back to your wallet. When the $350,000.reappeared in my account, I sobbed. Dexdert hadn’t just reclaimed my money, they restored my faith in fighting back. Today, I share my story to warn others: in the Wild West of crypto, vigilance is key, but Dexdert Net Pro proved that even in the darkest scams, light and justice can prevail.
