Hello all.
As I've become older I've noticed a lack of sex drive. I'm 25 now and I live a very unhealthy seditary lifestyle. Perhaps it's just the nofap that has lowered my sex drive and I'm in the flatline
Anyway, I'd like to make change.
Ever since you've all started working out have you had better erections and a higher libido? Tell me about your horniness levels from before you started working out and after.
Thanks for the help

>I live a very unhealthy seditary lifestyle
There’s your problem. Getting active will increase libido and general health. Cardio especially will help your erection quality.
>Cardio especially will help your erection quality.
Not op but in same boat. 2 months of 3 times a week cardio did nothing for my libido. I am 30yo now but I had this phases throughout all my life. Tried boron, zinc, terrestris, l-arginine, vitamin d, nothing made any difference
Starting to think that its all about stress and I should find a way to cope better with it
Also fapped whole my life, so maybe nofap helps, idk, never tried it because all my buddies fap and never had the same problems as me, maybe I will give it a try in the future
>you are low test
Ive never checked but I build muscle really easily and have huge shoulders so I dont really think so
Do you have depression
I remember reading a research paper that clearly demonstrated that being fat, even just a little (BMI 25+) greatly diminishes your libido and bioavailability of testosterone in general. This means anything that reduces your fat levels (such as running, cardio, putting the fork down) will increase your libido. Another factor that greatly fricks up libido is psychoactive medication, such as literally any antidepressant, even some you wouldn't necessarily consider as such, such as Roaccutane. For americans who are hopelessly addicted to all sorts of opioids (Ambien, ADHD medication, Ritalin), very likely those are fricking your shit up.
I am not diagnosed with depression but whole life I had more feels/empathy than others. After break up with long term gf it culminated with me not feeling anything anymore, its definitely corellated with libido, but I had my highs during really low mood, and now when I am in ok mood my libido tanked completely
I am builtfat 185cm/200lbs and maybe losing weight will help, but I have friends almost obese that frick chicks/fantasise about fricking chicka non stop
Libido has a very large psychological component not necessarily connected to testosterone. If you're feeling bad for whatever reason, obviously your sex drive will go down. Childhood trauma (read: rape), for some reason, can greatly increase libido later in life (called hypsersexuality), and this is possibly the main reason why homosexuals and people from broken homes are constantly trying to frick everything that moves. Maybe you should be glad you're not like your sex crazed fat friend, at least you didn't get fisted by your uncle when you were 5.
>Maybe you should be glad you're not like your sex crazed fat friend, at least you didn't get fisted by your uncle when you were 5.
But I am finally in place in life where I have daily multiple hot girls for banging, something I have wanted my whole life, and I now have to find excuses why I cant call them to my place, pathetic
Feels bad, I hope this too shall pass
>focus on caloric deficit, losing fat, rooning
>focus on caloric suficit, eating cholesterol and lifting weights
I see both equally, which one is it?
this is why I'm trying to lose fat and get much thinner before trying bulk up with muscle
yeah this is bullshit. I'm 31 and I exercise significantly less than when I was younger due to wrist and ankle pain, however I am as horny as ever and still wake up with morning wood every morning, and my cum shots are still huge. I would argue exercise is bad for your libido as your body focuses more on repairing damaged muscle tissue and less on making cum. the key is being lean, eating a pound of red meat every day, and talking to women so you actually have a reason to be horny.
i am a proud african american man that has been in the gym for 6 months and i was addicted to big white wiener porn for years before my brazilian fart porn fetish replaced it, while i still have to smell the gym toilets everyday, at least im in the gym making progress, my erections are very strong when a cute blonde/ginger/brunet man doesn't wipe down the equipment, i sit in his sweat and lift weights to seem casual, but deep down im very horny, my advice OP is to find what you really want in life and go for it, all i've wanted this whole time was a white man to pin me down and frick my black ass, while i'm still a virgin at 32 i an optimistic that i will succeed.
Stop playing video games and take rhino gas station Boner pills fixed me up good
Unironically?
I am almost never horny because I don't think about that type of stuff. I heard Tribulus is good for potency and some believe it boosts testosterone.
Are you vaxxed?
What's your weight, height, and day of nofap
6"4, 214pounds
I got the chud incel body type, skinny fat.
Day 20 of nofap.
I have hardly any muscle at all.
I think your right. I got tested for my hormones last year and they said it looked normal.
I eat goyslop every day.
What should I change my daily diet to? And how should I work out?
>What should I change my daily diet to? And how should I work out?
Post 2 days if your diet so we can critique it.
I don't know what to tell you, but I'm pretty sure there is a solution to your problem. Try making all of the food you eat throughout the day aphrodisiacs
>I think your right. I got tested for my hormones last year and they said it looked normal.
>normal
do you know what "normal" testosterone levels are? Anything between 250ng/dl and 1000ng/dl. That's a massive range
>Your ED is 99.999% caused by arterial plaques blocking blood flow to the penis. Lose weight and start working out and doing cardio.
he's a tall guy who's not overweight, he doesn't have ED due to plaque build up. If it's not a cardiac issue then it's likely brain/dopmaine related
>I live a very unhealthy seditary lifestyle.
Your ED is 99.999% caused by arterial plaques blocking blood flow to the penis. Lose weight and start working out and doing cardio.
If he's 70 maybe. Young people don't have blocked arteries to that degree, generally speaking
kegel exercises
you have to do it every day for at least six weeks. I noticed some first results after two weeks. Also stop fapping so much and dial down on your porn consumption.
Yep just started those
It's just clenching your butthole right? Every video explains kegals differently
I think I have some my mom gave me but I never tried them. I'll give that a try as well
Yeah I'm flatlining I think now.
I've been addicted to porn for a dozen years fapping once a day.
It will probably take many months for me to exit the flatline but if thats what it takes, it's better than watching porn
I have a bad back due to scoliosis surgery so squats specifically might not work for me. I'm going to a physical therapist next month so I'll ask her if it's bad for me to do squats
I have a 2 foot metal rod in my spine
Mris confirm my spine isn't damaged
Next time you piss, try to stop the flow of urine by contracting your muscles. When you do that you'll have performed a "rep" of kegels.
I can stop my pee flow effortlessly. I think I've gained this ability from forcefully trying to emit every little bit of pee in me before I realised it wouldn't fix the problem of me drinking too much water too soon before bed.
Are you guys fricking moronic?
Of course you won’t have a sex drive if you are fapping all the time.
Dumb fricking idiots.
OP said he is NOT jerking off. please try to keep up, guy-who's-totally-not-a-dumb-fricking-idiot
>Of course you won’t have a sex drive if you are fapping all the time.
What type of low test bullshit is this? Wanking makes me more arousable because I want to go out and enact my imagination or the porn I'm watching.
>have terrible libido for the last 4 years
>take some b vitamins because they usually pick me up
>start walking home from work
>suddenly get massive boner thinking of girls
>lasts until i eat dinner at home at which point things return to normal
what the frick happened? it wasn't the b vitamins alone because I had taken them for a few weeks earlier
I was actually going to recommend b vitamins. I just added a b12/ folate and my libido and pleasure have improved.
My feet kind of feel weird and it's a beginning symptom of peripheral neuropathy from b6 poisoning so im probably going to have to stop taking that multi, but I wonder if there's a specific B vit in there which has the strong pick me up effect
Yeah mines just b12/folate.
I can't imagine i have b12 deficiency though, I eat loads of meat and even liver pate
how soon did you notice the difference in libido bro?
>will living and eating healthier make me function like a healthy human?
Did you know that masturbation hinder your gains and porn will frick your brain up? Plus sexual abstinence has some pretty unbeliveable benefits:

I never took the nofap stuff seriously until lately. If you’re into self improvement stuff, retooning is the holy grail. It’s better than fixing your diet, better than supplements one can take, better than getting fit, better than all sorts of techniques one can read and study to help being more productive or successful in whatever aspect of life. And it’s the most difficult one to do. The big mistake is to try this just one time, because you will fail. You have to focus on this for an enough time to really get the streaks going for many days. All the posts saying they did like 100 days and there was no benefits are just lies. Going for a 100 days needs such a devotion that nobody just tries it out like it’s something easy thing just for trying. An average guy can go maybe couple days when trying this out. PMO is one of the strongest addictions. Also at the beginning retooning will kick your ass so bad: you think that what could be so hard about it? Just dont jerk off or watch porn. Ha, so easy. And then you fail and most quit it completly and embrace being a cumbrain
Based and truthpilled
My life hasnt been the same since I stopped jerking off and watching porn
I am scared of flatlines, did it happened to you?
How long do you nofap
Yeah, when I started, after like a month or two, there will be days where you will be acting like a b***h, emotional as frick and super super depressed. All you have to do is understand is going to pass and its your body healing itself. After two or three flatlines it stops and you wont have any more mood swings.
>its your body healing itself
How do you know this
Maybe you are causing this by not doing your biolical function at least once in a while
Does anyone else have problems waking up the following day? sex drive is fine, my dick not weak just pretty good for a 30+ guy. The problem I've noticed is the next day I wake up super super late for some reason constantly.
If I nut more than twice in one night I'll wake up at like 12-1pm for no fricking reason. Shit's weird. The worst one was when I got with my gym crush finally, went to town on that b***h since she was such a tease, easily got 4 nuts in (cyalis) woke up at like 3pm. Homegirl was outright worried saying she was going to call 911 if I stayed asleep till 4.
B vitamins are necessary for controling estrogen in liver, look it up
So it may be high e in those cases
>Ever since you've all started working out have you had better erections and a higher libido?
Big yes, start a strength program asap
>squats
Take nicotine
Huh? Why's that?
>24
>horny all the fricking time
>jerking off 5 times a day minimum
>take 2 day break to have sex with gf
>have sex
>cum leaks out
>wtf
>keeps leaking like I'm peeing cum
>think it's over
>start shooting everywhere
>unload like 1/2 cup of cum
Anyone else have this happen? Also I've lost control of my life and crave sex constantly, I feel bad for my gf. I've started to put it onto her, when we started dating she was cool with not even finishing from sex. Now I'm obsessed with having her have multiple orgasms so our ratio is like 3:1, and now she expects to finish at least once and will be chill not having sex for like a week in-between. I can jerk off legit 7 times in a day with no noticeable side-effects, my dick doesn't even get sore. Also for some reason my dick is getting bigger and I'm not bullshitting, idk if it's due to the constant erections or not.
Anyway, to answer your question OP I think it's all just a mental thing. I just enjoy sex and jacking off so I do it a lot. If you're not into sex I wouldn't worry about it, I went through a period where I didn't care about it for like a full year during college. I'd start with trying to a find a hot girl and pursuing that, channel those emotions into the gym and into your own sex life.
>older
>25
I could pound nails with my boner when I was that age. I get throbbing hard-ons in meetings and couldn't focus. Go to the doctor
Not everyone is like that bro, I am in shape and completely healthy (get my blood and vitals checked regularly including hormones) and I can easily go a year without sex at 26 and rarely coom. Some guys have low sex drives without any problems. The benefits of this is thinking with your brain rather than your dick at a younger age
The cold harsh truth: I think for a lot of us it's a local issue of wear and tear.
Yes, for SOME people cardio, leg work, nutrition, supplements, nofap will do wonders. But I believe for a lot of us none of those things will not work because quite simply the valves of the arteries that are supposed to trap in the blood just stop working over time. That or the prostate becomes inflamed and prevents normal blood flow. These are my two predominant theories. Both are issues that CANNOT be fixed, only managed with pills and injections.
I have shared my personal story several times so will just mention the key points: I noticed a considerable decline in my late 20s. From that point onwards up until now the decline was sharp and noticeable to that point that now at 34 im 100% unable to have sex without 100mg of viagra (and that's still mediocre as well). I have seen a dozen doctors over the years from urologists to cardiologists to endocrinologists. Everyone commends on how great my body looks and how great my blood tests are but I keep getting worse month after month. I am perfectly healthy. But my dick is just unable to get erect. I know I sound like a doom poster but i bielieve it's a local issue of shit wearing out.
Thank you for the info anon and god bless. Going to seek a urologist about this issue.
Look up the angion method on yt.
Anxiety, poor cardio health, and age.
Age? At 25? The male body peaks at 35-40.
Also you can lying about yourself on your sexuality.
>The male body peaks at 35-40.
hormonally yes.
my take is that a lot of cases of real ED, are a matter of local mechanical failure. like broken veins or prostatic issues.
If you're constantly sore or over-training then your body will prioritize recovery over sex.
>go no-plastic
>now jerking off 2-3 times a day
>going no-plastic
could you elaborate what you mean by this anon?
Reverse kegels. Won't fix low libido but could fix ed problems. A lot of guys are walking round with way, way overturned kegel muscles and if you're constantly tensed in that area it's gonna really frick with your boners. A few weeks of reverse kegeling and you'll be getting rock hard again effortlessly.
How do you do a reverse kegal?
I've looked it up and videos are horrible ay explaining it
Begin with a regular Kegel.
Breathe in deeply and identify your pelvic floor muscles.
Release the Kegel and focus on stretching your pelvic muscles as much as possible. The muscles should feel elongated — this is a reverse Kegel exercise.
You should feel your pubic bone and your tailbone stretching apart.
Your anus and vegana will move downwards if you are doing the reverse Kegel correctly.
Hold the reverse Kegel for five seconds and release for another five seconds.
Once you have identified the motion that you need to do, skip the regular Kegel at the beginning of the exercise.
Make sure you are breathing deeply as you perform the reverse Kegels.
Try to perform three sets of three reverse Kegels.
Don’t overexert your muscles. If you feel any pain, stop the exercises, give your body some rest, and do not hesitate to contact your doctor.
Is it as I want to fart but not go all the way?
honestly i have no idea either, i just posted that because it implied you have a vegana and i found it funny at the moment.
i tried looking it up and was just as perplexed as you.
Kind of like pissing or shitting. You push out or 'down' as if you want to piss. But it's more of a stretch. I find them easier to do standing as it's easier to feel it. It takes a while to build the control but after a while you can feel the stretch strongly and it's easy to do them. Easier to find it if you kegel and then sort of do the opposite in quick pulses. Then just try and quickly flex the reverse muscle a few times. Stick with it and after a week you'll be able to get a strong reverse squeeze and then you're laughing.
Drop porn first of all
I'm 36 and hornier than ever. Always on the prowl for frick. It's caused my standards to lower a bit but I'm glad to say I still haven't fricked a fatty
Has it always been like that or did working out increase it?
I am 36 and fap a few times a week I when I am not banging my wife the other days of the week (when she’s not on her period). I lift 2-3 days a week and bike or run 3-4 days a week. I still have morning wood every morning. I hear about zoomers having ED at 20 which just blows my mind.
>I hear about zoomers having ED at 20 which just blows my mind.
contrary to all the memes ED for people no other co-morbidities is just a matter of genetics. some guys have sensitive arteries that get easily damaged. it's that simple.
>hurr duur it's hormones
>hurr duur it's cardio
people have weak dicks by design. im a gym rat and a lot of the people in my social circle use viagra and cialis routinely.
>im a gym rat and a lot of the people in my social circle use viagra and cialis routinely
getting too big can have issues with bloodflow. Also, people who take TRT when they don't truly have low T have their testicles shrink
It's emotional. They're mindfricked into having zero confidence and having zero social proofing by being on phones all the time instead of real biological interactions. Also reduced base t
>As I've become older
>I'm 25
Are Americans so unhealthy that they peak <20? The frick?
I feel like I've never really been sexual the way a normal person would. 28 and I've been jerking off in some form since age 8 and changed my technique from shower head vibrations to weird hand motions to swirling my finger in circles to the traditional jerking off. I can barely stay hard even after 10 days nofap, even with a woman. Might be stress but I'm not in the best shape either. I guess I'll try healthier lifestyle and if it doesn't work, maybe Cialis and if that doesn't work I guess I'll just kms
Help
I thought running was suppose to increase sex drive?
I was very fit in my early 20s. Had an extremely strong sex drive (but never had sex. virgin all of my 20s) but i was constantly horny and could get an instant boner at the sound of a girl speaking. When I entered my late 20s, I got too busy with work to exercise and became skinny fat. I got my first gf in my early 30s, and we've barely had sex because I don't get erections as easily as I used to, and my sex drive is low. I stated exercising again and a lot of running for the past 6 months. But my sex drive is still shit, and its not so easy for me to get full hard boners. Is it over for me?
Would daily Cialis help relax the pelvic muscles? Mine are like a vice, I'm doing stretches but wondering if that would be beneficial.
Guys let's brainstorm this:
i lost my spontaneous erections for more than a year now and i suspect years of edging might be the culprit. im perfectly healthy and fit etc and i went on nofap for a month. to my surprise i got a random semi and thought we are so back, so last night i fapped but didn't finish. i didn't edge just fell asleep lol. today my dick is deader than dead even tho I didn't finish yesterday.
this is so odd. usually if i fapped but didn't finish one day i'd have raging boners the next day. now it was the EXACT opposite. I jerked off. didn't finish and next day my dick was utterly dead. and here's my theory: some irritation or inflammation that gets aggravated by jerking off that kills off my dick. any ideas?
>Perhaps it's just the nofap that has lowered my sex drive and I'm in the flatline
yes, it lowers it. If you keep doing semen retention for years and years it can become more permanent like post finasteride syndrome if you are unlucky.
>25 years old
>no sex drive
>erectile dysfunction
its fricking over for you dude
I abused my penis/brain with years of porn addiction and I'm trying to get rid of it by doing nofap and noporn (wich will just end being no porn cause I don't believe in the long term benefits of nofap). I have several questions please:
> How long till my brain is free from porn consumption?
> Last times I fapped, I came in a matter of seconds. How can I train my stamina (beside doing cardio) alone?
> Anything to do to rebuild my dick sensitivity beside not touching it?
>Go to doctor
>Ask for Cialis
Do this in the meantime of actually getting in fricking shape.
>”But I’m too embarrassed…”
Alright homosexual then do this:
>Go to doctor
>”I’m depressed, anxious, ADHD”, whatever the frick you want, take your pick
>Get prescribed something
>Go back a month later
>”Hey these are working great but it’s causing erectile dysfunction”
>Get Cialis
Cialis is a great drug all around, but you should focus on getting in shape.
Redpill me on daily Cialis. Will it make me feel like a teenager again?
It’s not a miracle cure for anything but it’s just a good drug in general. It has benefits aside from ED. It’s not like Viagra which will give you an erection no matter what, but it basically just guarantees that when you are horny you will get one.
that doesnt sound healthy or natural
Nah it’s great. Only drawback is if you have GERD it can make it worse. Also can’t get blitzed while on it so if you love alcohol then you would consider that a drawback as well.
it doesn't sound natural. I didn't get the covid vax for that same reason. why would i take a pill that forces a boner. That can't be healthy long term
Can you read? Viagra is what forces a boner, Cialis doesn’t.
So Cialis just makes you feel normal if you have ed?
I'm leaning on that since I heard people get headaches from Viagra. I got that from maca and hornygoat weed so I can imagine Viagra would be the same only stronger.
NTA but I use kamagra (same as viagra) with new girls, it gives you 110%boner, your job is only to do the athletics
>but muh headache
Im not pussy, who cares
I dont use it on long term gfs tho, that kind of relationships should already have some kind of commitment and understanding, so should be easier on you if you fail sometimes
