YES! You should masturbate once in a while, I guess (once a week is good). That is supposed to help release toxins that build up over time in your reproductive system (or so I've read). I've also read that the ancient Greeks abstained from sex when they were training for the Olympics because they believed that sexual activity diminished one's energy. I can't verify that historically, but I would expect it to be true based on my own experiences! But if you're already running all the time, frequent masturbation will deplete energy and nutrients your body does not have to spare. Not only will masturbation deplete nutrients, but your orgasm will release chemicals in your body that will make you sleepy. That can cause a bad feeling if you're already tired from running. You can experience the exact same problems even if you're not training so hard, but you usually will not experience them unless you masturbate too frequently. So in summary, masturbate about once per week on a day that you are well-rested and energetic and do not intend to train! Also, remember to eat a healthy diet, sleep well, and take your vitamins! Good luck!

es and no.. If you masterbate a lot, it does affect your stamina but if you have a team event, I would hope that you did not masturbate JUST before competing otherwise it might affect your stamina a little.. not much.. Where stamina comes into play is when you masturbate 3 or more times a day.... day in and day out.

well masturbation is a activity that can be draining; Therefore, by doing it alot or say before a run ofcourse you wont have alot of energy but if your wondering if it gives you more stamina or not? I would suggest try it and see how ya feel if ya feel like you can run more great all power to ya if not then tone down on beating it like a red headed step child

No masturbation is not the problem. You need to be checked out by a doctor there is some other cause for your weakness. Masturbation is okay and does not cause muscle weakness. It just relaxes you for a short time.

No, as long as you don't masturbate while you are running track. That would be dangerous and a big distraction for the other members of the team. Seriously, does't affect anything.

If you feel so weak after bringing yourself to orgasm, then I would suggest that you not do it close to a meet. Do not do it during the day, but at night, so you can sleep and feel refreshed during the day. If orgasm really drains you, do not masturbate the night before a meet.

It is a classic sports myth.
It may have an affect as you believe it does. No evidence proves it

a coach told his track to " relieve tension " before the track meet you would be less stressed.
He told them to figure out what that meant !
I guess you're on the right track ; )
