Extremely intense libido

[BodhiBlues]

I can second the advice to do weightlifting. It is one of the best ways to redirect libidinal energy into something healthy and productive.

I haven't been able to lift all week due to a minor injury and the libidinal energy is driving me nuts!

I'm 26 and I don't watch porn nor do I masturbate

This is your problem, physiology will ramp you insane if you don't manage to release, trying to make you do so.

You need to make a choice, do you go for women and release there, or do you use porn and release there. Otherwise you will be in this manic state until your body accepts reproduction is not for you, and athropies your sexual organs.

I often don't train to failure, because it can negatively impact my recovery speed. Keeping 1 rep in the tank is what I do most of the time.

I don't think there is one ideal amount of sets. Just get started and find out for yourself. :)

It is extremely hard to know when failure will occur or to exactly determine how many repetitions are left before failure!

You will never know for sure how many reps it will be before failure. It can change from day to day depending on a lot of things like how well you slept, how much coffee you have had and how long it has been since you last lifted.

Sometimes it makes no sense at all, I'll be in the gym at 6am, feeling awful after 4 hours of sleep and I'll smash my PR for all my lifts!

Over time you can recognise when you are going to fail the next rep, when I struggle to push through the last part of the rep I will fail the next one 90% of the time.

Is There A Way To Safely Reduce Male Libido?

Is there a way to reduce a man’s libido without affecting his general well-being? I know Ray said that high estrogen causes "insatiable sexual interest"; but let's assume the man in question doesn't have high estrogen, and is generally healthy.

Is There A Safer Way To Chemically Castrate Myself?

The usual medications used for this purpose have severe side effects. I tried HCG for about a year but the side effects were crippling and life-ruining. Extreme fatigue, depression, gyno, couldn't pee... socially I lost my girlfriend, became anxious which I never was before, stopped being...

I agree, while acute shorter abstinence streaks can be useful for that manic energy for worksout and other pursuits in long term it can drive you nuts, when I was 17 I abstained for 8 months and despite working out and keeping myself busy at the end I developed manic ocd hypersexual paranoid kind of state, I had became so oversensitized from that abstinence that when I saw a simple NSFW gif of a chest of a nude woman I literally had an orgasm/ejaculation just by seeing it which is how exactly I broke my 8 month streak

The reason I even bothered with nofap in the first place was because I had/still have the Post Orgasmic Illness Syndrome and I thought nofap/semen retention is the only way

However recently I started taking Aspirin and antihistamines and they greatly reduce the length of those post-orgasm symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, diaphragmal tightness, the mucus in the throat, nose stuffiness so I probably have had some immune/mast cell activation disorder problem all of this time behind those symptoms given how they match very closely with symptoms of high Histamine and allergy so it was never anything to do with semen loss or any other bull**** pseudoscience that roamed and still roams around on abstinence communities but it was likely an immune issue given how when I had a flu/cold/fever in 2020 February my POIS disappear during those 3 days on it's own with zero medicines or any other changes whatsoever

I believe many nofappers/semen retainers have POIS either immune form or hormonal/nutrient imbalance form of it and that's why they feel so bad especially ones whose symptoms stay even for days or weeks after like they did before I started Peating and using my current supplement stack and improving my health in the general

vitamin D+E for me.
but i don't think it's a good idea to artificially lower your libido, you can become even more depressed.

it's really strange your story, i already stayed 5 months without masturbating or having sex with a woman.
and I never felt so good in my life.

I feel like I'm 10 years old again.

When I masturbate compulsively with porn I tend to get depressed and tired.

now nofap or sport makes me depressed, it's because i've used food supplements to derange my system.

Yes, I would never advocate for intense cardio workouts and running. I would focus on resistance training with weights. Doing basic movements like barbell bench press, deadlifts, overhead press, lat pull downs, rows, curls (for the girls ) with enough rest between sets to keep lactic acid in check and CO2 high. Maybe having an intra-workout drink with plenty of orange juice, salt + thiamine as well maybe.

What rep range seems adequate for each set and how much would be enough rest between sets?

 

[BodhiBlues]

What rep range seems adequate for each set and how much would be enough rest between sets?

The best rep range depends on your goals:

If you are purely strength training (powerlifting) then 1 - 5 reps, once you get to 5 reps you increase the weight. That is basically the Stronglifts program.

If you are bodybuilding (focusing on aesthetics) the 8-12 rep range is best, most of the time. However;

Large muscles, like your glutes, respond well to heavy weight, lower reps.

Small muscles, like biceps, respond better to lower weight, higher reps (I normally increase the weight for these muscles at around 16 reps).

The length of time between each set varies based on the exercise that you are doing. Some exercises, like squats and deadlifts, are very intensive on your nervous system, so you can take longer to recover between sets. Whereas, with other exercises you might only need a minute.

Man wtf, have you actually read the original post?

 

[BearWithMe]

Sigh. The quantity of bad advice in this thread is overwhelming.

Dietary supplements absolutely won't get you laid. Building good physique never hurts, but when you lack social skills, it won't get you laid either. And when you have social skills, you don't need to have great physique to get laid.

I'm not going to even comment on posts suggesting that OP should be trying to somehow lower his libido. Seriously, what's wrong with these people?

When you are young male that doesn't have sex and doesn't masturbate, obviously your sex drive will drive you crazy. What do you all expect, ffs?

OP just needs to get laid as soon as possible. Simple as that. He should not be wasting time and energy on bodybuilding or dietary supplements or channeling that energy elsewhere, he should fix his social anxiety and f**k as many women as humanly possible.

Kinda yes!

I cannot make eye contact with women because I think they will think I am a creep!

Here's the thing. When you look at women while thinking you are a creep, they will actually think you are a creep.

But when you look at them while thinking it is completely normal and natural to be attracted to female body, they will actually get turned on just by your look!

Women wants men that will ravage them. Women wants men with high sex drive, that will absolutely destroy them in a bed.

Your high sex drive is actually a great thing, and it is very attractive to women.

You just need to be very confident and assertive about it, and you need to be very non-needy. Then creepy becomes sexy.

Woment wants to be desired. It makes them feel good like nothing else.

The thing is looks! I think women don't care about desire from men who are not attractive to them! Do you think so? It doesn't matter how much desire a man has if the women doesn't find him attractive nothing is gonna happen.

I have so much desire for women! It's infinite, I will not eat or drunk anything but would rather appreciate a woman's femininity but all this desire I think means nothing if the woman thinks I am not attractive to her!

My only reason to be alive now is women! I don't care about anything else. Without women this world to me is not worth living. In this present time I am trying to understand what can I do to get intimate with women I see in public. I see these attractive women in public and afterwards I cry my way back home thinking about how I will never be able to see them again. To me what is the point of living if I cannot experience her company. Everyday I think about what can I do to improve my looks to get women attracted to me. I just cannot make you realize with words my desire for women.

What's wrong with me that I am unable to get a female company. Suicidal thoughts run across my mind everyday. I cannot bear living like this!

Either you misinterpret body language or you disregard yourself too much, to come to the conclusion that women think you are unattractive. Be more confident and in control of yourself. You have to have something to help you, it is impossible, each of us has at least one quality, just discover and use it.

No! Males needs their sexual partners to be physically attractive, but female brain works completely different. You absolutely don't need to be physically beautiful for a woman to feel a sexual desire.

In fact, a female might find you downright ugly, yet still feel strong attraction and desire to have sex with you.

I'm sure you know about many cases when young supermodels are dating old and ugly men.

People say that these women are gold diggers, but this is often not true. The reality is that these men are usually in position of power, are very confident, have very dominant behaviors and this sparks female arousal like nothing else.

Read my post again. I have said you need to be very confident and assertive about your desire, and to be very non-needy.

Right now you are acting super desperate and needy and women find this incredibly repulsive.

 

[BearWithMe]

Attracting women is a skill that can be learned just like any other skill.

Use your desperation and needines as a fuel to work on yourself, to learn and practice that skill.

Channel all the pain you feel right now to propel you on your journey to becoming an attractive man.
