Training & Nutrition - sex and training regimen

yes, really. but how would you do it? (integration I mean)
physiological benefits (and psychological) could be complimentary to your training routine....:beer:

how high do you think the "views" count will get with this thread???:)

Muhammad Ali supposedly advocated sex before a fight because it calms the nerves...

*throws down gauntlet

Personally, I'm all for it! :)
Now getting the wife to cooperate is an altogether different story...
Hmmmm... Perhaps training partners? "But dear, she's just a training partner, we were just training!" ;)

Well, I have a new boyfriend who works out in the gym 7 times in 8 days. I told him that was way too much for him and that he should give his muscles a rest for 2 days/week. However, I also said that perhaps sex just once a week was a bad idea... up it to 2 and things will be in balance.
There's no reason why it can't precede a training ride.. unless you've been losing sleep over it or have had multiple energy-draining sessions (preferable though over a single one, not satisfactory enough for most women!)

Depends on the intensity :)

if theres one thing better than riding your bike its --------
i should be so lucky ;)

Well, you could train on a tandem, but I am not sure about the physics involved. However, where there is a will, there is a way!!

is everyone here sexless?:confused:

Ummm...no where did you get that idea?

the cold silence of this thread suggests it...

True enough I suppose. Unless most people don't want to categorize sex as training ;)

In show business we have the saying "No boom-boom before big show!". Of course, we never listen.
All I can say is that sex has been much better since I started riding again this year.

is it so bad for you that you need to use training as an excuse or reason? :p

You may have found a loophole - no pun intended. :D

but how would you do it?

Ride out into the hills, find a bush (other then the one that is with you:D ), have sex and then ride home. Now if you need to know how to have sex, well, thats a totally different thread.

Slainte:beer:

haha...that is the easiest way :)...of course I would hike off the trail a bit. Most trails out here have a bit of traffic :)
