As the title says, here's the results from a 90 NoFap. I want to mention that the purpose of NoFap was never about increasing your testosterone substantially or never fapping ever again. A lot of people (both for and against it) keep bringing these things up. It was about how easy access to porn and frequent enough fapping to porn affects your dopamine and serotonin and to what brings you pleasure. NoFap is essentially a hard reset to help normalize this. I didn't start this as a full-on porn addict, but
I'll start with endurance since that was one thing that dropped. Lasted about two minutes the first time. But second time a few days later, thought, it went to about ten minutes, so that part should get back to normal. I didn't notice a change in my behavior until around the second or third week to where I was more irritable, and that was when I had the strongest urge to fap. Technically I was more productive and I got more home projects done, but that was because technically I had more time to work. No changes to my hairline, none to acne (I didn't have acne to begin with like some people talk about).

Concerning weight lifting, I'm guessing I'm still on noob gains since I started training over the summer; started at 215 for a full set of five before and at 235 now (yes, I'm weak, frick off). Running a mile is still the same. I do want to mention that keeping busy help mitigated a lot of the urge to fap, which is one of the purposes of NoFap to begin with. I spent more time working out so I could avoid the want to fap. So another technicality in that NoFap can help gains.
Do I think it helped in a physical way? Yes. Going back to the endurance part, before starting I could easily have an urge to fap once a day at least. Now urge is around once or twice a week. Should everyone do NoFap for 90 days? Sure, why not. Even assuming you gain no real benefit from it, if you fap 20 mins a day looking at porn, that's still comes out to over five days a year you're spending in front of a computer. At the very least, I think everyone can agree that you should drop porn completely.

If you butthole's quite responding with stupid posts, then threads like this can die quicker.
I never got a thing out of trying not to jerk off but I get hella gains physically, mentally, and metaphysically when I'm doing something else so seriously that I never get around to jerking off.
Jerking off takes me like 5 to 10 minutes it’s such an insignificant investment in time and energy. If I’m horny and alone I’ll jerk off and move on with my day.
Yesterday my gf wasn’t home and I ended up jerking off in the morning then in the afternoon right before going to the gym. I even wondered if I should just not cum and have that nervous energy to help with lifting but I came and my lifting was great.
Obviously I’m not talking about the weird gooners and people stuff in a cycle of shame because of religious and new age shit x consumption of hardcore porn, but I seriously don’t understand the fixation with not jerking off as needed. I assume it relates to no gf, sex guilt, blame-shifting, need for a sense of control, quick self help quackery etc etc
My dick stopped working. That’s why I am abstaining. Hopefully this will help
Stopped working like ED or difficult getting turned on by less than hardcore stuff? How old are you and have you seen a doctor?

>affects your dopamine and serotonin
Don't forget lowering your prolactin levels, which is a dopamine antagonist, lowers test, and induces states of lethargy and low-motivation.
And of course the oxytocin release that comes with orgasm, meant to go hand in hand with the prolactin spike so that you relax and bond with your partner post-orgasm. Without a partner, you are simply alone, demotivated, lethargic, and bonding with isolation as there is no parter to project your oxytocin upon.
GRRRRR YOU NOT JERKING OFF MAKES ME ANGRY GRRRRR HOW DARE YOU NOT WHACK YOUR wiener EVERYDAY LIKE ME GRRRRRR
I lost my virginity to a hooker and could only nut once. First one was really fast, second one never came and the time ended.
I can see now how porn and frequent fapping has fricked over my mind because I can cum in a minute at home watching porn over and over but with real sex the cooldown seems way higher.
Is that abnormal? That happens to me often. Sometimes I can get the second nut if I go at her with abandon and my cardio is there for it. Often times I'm using that cardio and energy to get her off with no intention of cumming again. Sometimes we both got off already so I don't even bother and just let myself go soft.
I don't know, I'm not a sex expert, anon. But I believe our hand death grip will always be tighter than any pussy out there, on top of that you're watching porn which makes it even easier.
Also I def didn't have the cardio enough for it
Thanks for the report anon & well done
so the only benefit was you didn't feel like watching porn as much?
OP post proves nofap is about controlling arousal, and if you do not control arousal nofap is for very little. You just get irritable and stressed out on it.
Try to reduce arousal and try again, but shit is difficult I'll tell you that. Maybe this is what they mean with transmutation of sexual energy?
what if im not a moronic homosexual who uncontrollably jerk offs at the sight of an anime girl.
That is my point. If you don't get aroused, that's good. But if you do get aroused, it would be better to handle the arousal instead of letting it linger without taking any action.
Do you have any personal experience regarding lifting with arousal, did it help? I was highly aroused today and just had a regular workout, and OP seems to have experienced the same. I'm just trying to analyze the situation.
If all doesn't work out why wouldn't I wank it again, it's not that serious.
