Does Sex and Masturbation affect bodybuilding?

If you’re curious as to how possible is it that sex can influence you or your workout, PictureFit Youtube channels speaks extensively about that. The common speculation among athletes is that sex or masturbation lowers the testosterone levels, which in turn reduces your gain. Like you’ve just guessed, it’s not true. By definition, Testosterone is an androgenic hormone that plays a big role in muscle building for both sexes.
High level of this can allow for more muscle protein synthesis or muscle growth. If you practice abstinence, this can allow for the testosterone level to build which is quite good but on the other hand, there is no evidence it will increase your gains, effects of having an orgasm on testosterone levels are barely noticeable.
 
Long story short, masturbation and sex aren’t not anyway bad or good regarding moderate or intense work out. The heart rate elevates for several hours after having orgasm, and it can stay that way if you work out after sex or masturbation.
There’s no reason to limit your sexual activity while you work on building the body you want.
