No man can go a month without shooting a load unless said man was getting paid like £10,000

You're all on the list of shame for either failing throughout the month or fapping today. Shame!
SHAAAAME!!!
Can't go forever can you? Just embrace your shame and find acceptance.
That said, I might do a new experiment for March. It's much easier to resist when you're working out regularly and the testosterone boost gives you a reason to stick with it.
March is gonna be my be productive and organized month. Might stick to fapping every 2 weeks to get the most from the T boost. Gonna try to stay on the workout train and start filling out some shirts
Also planning to do a lot of goal tracking, read several books, meditate more, sharpen the mind up n all that. Holistic improvement. Who's in?
I think if we had a central thread to list our goals, track progress and share tips on staying motivated and organized we could improve our lives. It only takes 30 days to condition a new habit. My goal is to condition a shit ton of new habits at once and be in superman mode by April.
Shall I make the thread?

You'd think so but actually the time between getting horny gets longer (although it is pretty difficult when you're horny) the longer you last and eventually your sex drive takes a bit of a plummet. As long as you're doing something when you get horny you should be fine. Since yesterday it's kinda returned in full force since my Peter North moment.
You start having wet dreams if you haven't unloaded after 2 day?! Are you 14?

So what's the list of people who actually completed the whole month?
And who managed to abstain completely?

@SunkLo
Hows your superhuman training going bro? i had a mad fapping session early march and was too ashamed to return to this thread... you still on it?

Nah I fapped. Have kept on the self improvement train though. Steady working out every day and trying to get after my goals.
Forgot to make that improve your life thread... Maybe I'll make it now
Edit: also I should mention that I've kept fapping to about once a week. Really only do it when I know it's been a while and I can't resist. So hopefully still seeing the benefits of testosterone increase... Haven't really documented it though. I should add fapping to my workout logs so I can track whether or not it decreases my gains the next day. Come to think of it, I had a crazy workout a couple days ago but haven't done as well since. Pretty sure I fapped some time after that awesome day

If there ends up being a demonstrable improvement in my workouts then I might restrict fap seshes even more or be more strategic with them.

SunkLo, what makes you think wanking lowers testosterone levels?

Been a few studies on it.

Not entirely convinced but from anecdotal evidence and my own experience, I'd say it does have some effect. Not really that masturbation lowers test levels, but abstaining can cause a rise. Makes sense, your monkey mind realizes you're not getting any poon and ups your fuck juices so you'll be more aggressive. If you just shot your wad into what your brain thinks is a fertile cum cave, there's no need to continue aggressively pursuing sex at that time instead of conserving energy for other functions.

Coz i've just googled it and there is a lot of studies that say different - not only does it not reduce it, but it can in fact increase it.
"Many people have always assumed that after sexual activity, males experience a drop in testosterone levels. There is no research we could find that points to a significant drop in testosterone post-ejaculation. In fact research tells us that the opposite seems to be true. Men will have significant jumps in testosterone levels from sexually arousing stimuli(and certain other types of stimuli). The research also suggests that sexual encounters and ejaculation, will not effect and may increase, testosterone blood levels..... Recent studies are also showing a significant drop in prostate cancer risk, for men who more frequently ejaculate. According to current research, ejaculation (or sex) is not going to lower your testosterone levels, in either the short term or long term."
