Amazing benefits early in

Hey guys (and girls),

I just wanted to post something on how I experience the whole NoFap challenge and what the benefits are. The first big benefit is overall energy and recovery. I workout and run 5 times a week. In the past, I always had to take it easy after a few days of training. My legs would be all stiff and all cramped up. If I had done a workout in the morning, there was no possible chance that I could go for a run in the evening. I would always be exhausted from my first workout and lie on my couch and rest. But since I started doing NoFap, the feeling in my legs is PHENOMENAL, seriously. If I wanted to, I could probably workout twice a day and still go for a run in the evening. It's like my legs don't get tired at all, it's really weird.

Now, before I started my total abstention from PMO I would read all these threads and posts about men declaring all their super powers and benefits, but it was so hard for me to believe. Like not masturbating would make such a difference... But it does, it absolutely does. Another benefit is the women and how, in a really weird way, they're more attracted to you. In the past I would always ask myself if I was invisible. I never, ever got noticed by women on the street, at the gym, in grocery stores, etc. But now... Jesus, it's unreal. I really have no explanation to why they suddenly notice me, I haven't done anything differently, but for some reason women just look at me a lot more. Without sounding cocky, I have fairly nice looks, but that never seemed to attract any girls in general. I always had to work my ass off to get a girl to like me. I think all of that is about to change...

Let me give you an example: Every 2 months I go to this popular, fancy barbershop and there happen to work a few beautiful ladies. In the past, whenever I would get a haircut from one of them, they're friendly, but nothing else. They just do their job and don't talk to you a lot. Yesterday though, I went in to get another haircut and the lady that has cut my hair for more than 5 times, suddenly is really happy to see me. She's smiling a lot, looking me in the eye (from the mirror), laughing at all my stupid jokes and she did things that she or any other barber never has done before. She was shaving the hairs on my neck and all of a sudden, she went shaving the little hairs on the top of my back. She really took her time with it. Now I don't know why, because I barely have hair growing there, but afterwards she starting rubbing my back with her bare hands to get all the lose hairs out of my shirt, but it was like she was caressing my back more than anything else... all through the haircut she was really open and I might say she was even a flirting with me at some point.

I'm only at day 12 and there is still a long way to go and maybe seeing benefits this soon is not possible, but I certainly do see them. Now, notice that I'm a very healthy person. I work out, I eat a really healthy diet, I don't drink alcohol, I get enough sleep every night, I take cold showers and I'm doing all the right things to increase my Testosterone levels. Maybe having high levels of Testosterone + abstaining from masturbating is a deadly cocktail for women. Because in these last 12 days I have had more attention from females than in the last 3 years, seriously. So guys, start living healthy to increase your T-levels and stop masturbating. Things will start to change, trust me.

Good luck to all of you, my fellow warriors!

Mighty as a lion gentle as a bluebird.....I don't know why that song came in my head I guess it was your lion avatar lol But anyways I'm impressed joe-d it sounds like the exercise and good diet is helping tremendously with your journey especially at 12 days. Keep up the good work and positive attitude, it's paying off.
 
Very inspiring :-). Glad to see it's going so well for you! Looking forward to read more from you!
 
Hey guys,

So in my first post I mentioned that some of the benefits I experience are better athletic perfomance and girls noticing you more. And these two really are the most remarkable so far...

I've been running for the last 5 years and though making progress every year, I never really felt any fitter. Now, I'm not a marathon runner or anything but I like to go for a 30-minute run every evening, which in total would be like 4km or almost 3 miles. And every time I ran, after the first 15 minutes I had to take a small break to catch my breath. Now, last night I went for my daily run again and when I came back home, I noticed something. For the first time in years, I ran the whole 4km without taking a break, without slowing down. I didn't feel tired at all and I felt like if I wanted to, I immediately could go for a second run. Really insane, my stamina improved and my energy levels are through the roof. Pumping iron in the gym is becoming way easier as well!

Second major benefit of not masturbating: GIRLS!
Last weekend, some friends and I went clubbing here in Bruges (Belgium). I don't often go clubbing but when I do, I'm never really succesful with the ladies. I do approach them and often get numbers, but I always have to work my ass off! I have a feeling all of this is changing... So I was talking to a cute girl and while I was talking to her I noticed that a lot of other women were 'eye-fucking' me. This NEVER EVER happened to me before and that's why it really got my attention. At one point I caught 3 women, who were standing right next to each other, looking right at me. I felt like a small zebra cub surrounded by 3 hungry lions who were about to devour me.

Now, I didn't approach them, because they weren't really my type and I was going back to look for my friends. As I was moving through the club, I suddenly bumped into this really gorgeous girl. She had my height (180cm or 5'11) and honestly guys, she could have been a Victoria Secret angel. We started talking and things never went so smoothly before. I made her laugh the whole time, we had a lot of deep eye contact and she almost automatically gave me her number. When I texted her a few days later she unfortunately told me that was already in a relationship, but nevertheless I was really proud of myself. Girls like her normally don't give a shit about me and definitely don't talk to me the way she did.

I am really hopeful for the future and I can't wait what the following years have in store for me. I've had severe social anxiety for the last 3 years, haven't had a gf in 4 years. I've gone through hell and I'm finally back on my feet. Now NoFap is really turning my life around. I feel like I'm 6 years old again and the world lies at my feet. I really hope that I can inspire all of you who struggle with the awful addiction of porn and masturbating. Don't give up, never give up. Good things come to those who wait.

Until the next one, my friends!
Joe-D
