    Today is my 97th day of SR.
    I was working with a 20 years old bloke doing some heavy lifting and intense work.
    3 hours in and he started complaining about fatigue...
    I ( 43 yo) was feeling like a lion working full speed with so much energy ( on less than 6 hours of sleep.)

    A secret i want to share:
    Before sr i used to struggle every day with low energy and mediocre strength.

    You will become a better person. I promise.

    Update: today i had a day of.
    I went to the gym for shoulder and legs workout.
    Then went to see some people .
    Then came home and felt like going to the gym again.
    I did biceps and tricepes.
    Then i felt the need to walk and went for 8k steps walk.

    I am not even tired yet but it is 7pm and soon i should go for my daily solitude session.

    My energy is through the roof. Wow.

    About 2.5 hours.
    This happened to me last year on my long ( 150 days streak).
    I was doing 300 pushups, walking ,and rebounding on a trampoline.

    The energy is abundant.
    I am also noticing that i wake up refreshed and energetic without an alarm clock.

    This is very interesting. Could there be other reasons for your extra energy?
    I mean: even if everthing is the same with what you eat and sleep etc, your mindset could be very different. You could be more motivated. Many times when we feel tired we are not even close to be out of energy.
    It would be fun to read more details about how you believe your energy is higher now than before. I guess you dont watch P?

    Nothing changed. I am still eating the same and sleeping the same.
    I don't watch porn. I don't indulge in any lustful thoughts and when i look at women i try to avoid looking below the neck.

    In your opinion, would someone having a vasectomy (me) be able to benefit from this? Is it the semen, the sperm, or both being retained and reabsorbed that pays off?

    I think the benefits are not entirely related to semen or sperm.
    it is more about keeping the brain in perfect balance. Basic knowledge of the neurochemicals & the brain will tell you that orgasm causes an imbalance between dopamine prolactin and serotonin. ( all responsible for motivation and mood regulation). A brain experiencing an orgasm is similar to a brain experiencing heroin high.
    They tell you that orgasm is a good thing and it is, but humans are abusing it at the moment.
    They are overindulging.

    Yes, even if, the brain doesn't get that balance unless one is not MO or O, right? This is what SR achieves - no MO or O, not that semen, as a substance, is directly responsible for everything.

    I'd never heard of SR, this all very fascinating to me. Of course if you try online research you have to skip the first several.pages of "jerking off is great for you!" results, but there IS some interesting info out there on this.

    I'm married but my wife is nearly sexless, but now I'm wondering if that could FINALLY work to my advantage lol!

    Just Googled that as I'd never heard the term before. Interesting stuff. I'm not an overly sexual person but that sounds like a really positive thing to experience. Thanks!

    It also happened to me. I am on a relapse now, but a few weeks ago there were days where I felt my energy was endless. I stayed at the gym more than ever, then I cooked, cleaned the house... I was suprised of me. The benefits are real.

    I gave up porn at the same time I gave up smoking weed. I first thought the extra energy I felt was from the abstinence of weed, but you could be on to something with the SR discovery.
