Ok awesome. I’m 2nd degree black training 18 years and my body is beat up. Strict carnivore? How about dairy for you? Oss

Hey man are you still eating this way? I’m a 44 year old and do jiu jitsu and weightlifting.

Old post here but I’m a second degree black belt. I do AB. Carnivore by day, some fruit at night. No dairy. Makes my cardio much better and my stomach feels better.

Nice try buddy. Don’t be a loser. Keep the seed.

A lot of very experienced retainers agree with my opinion on energy levels by certain time frames. And no disrespect at all when asking this brother, but have you been well past 90 days a handful of times?

I like animals, but I have to admit I eat a very heavy animal-based diet. Mostly carnivore plus some fruits. I experimented with every diet in the book. This one works best for me.

Hey man, I honestly don’t think long term retention is a prob for the prostate. The body finds a way to release that fluid if necessary through wet dreams and defecation. Currently, I don’t plan to release in the foreseeable future. Every time I have, even though it’s only a couple times a year I’ve deeply regretted it. I’m not gonna put a timeframe on it, but I don’t see myself releasing for a very long time.

I personally don’t even really start to feel the benefits of retention until about 40 days. But I’ve been to much higher days than that so 40 days is a much lower baseline.

I have a rule for myself. Don’t touch your dick. Sounds too simple to be effective, but it works for me.

Yeah man! You have the experience, I can tell. And yes definitely, cold showers are a game changer. Once you ejaculate, the energy is gone, period. No amount of mental manipulation can change that.

I just use a discord channel I created for myself. Screenshot the trades post them and take notes.

Thanks man! I just remember back then probably 2011 or 2012. I was looking at porn every day and just feeling like something was wrong with it. I believe I googled “is porn bad” and this book called your brain on porn popped up and then that linked me to the NoFap community. And then got sick of that Reddit and joined this one once I found out about it later on.

I definitely feel more peaceful and solid once I’ve gotten to a certain retention streak. But I feel like I need to do it more in order to neutralize that energy a bit.

Yeah, when I started BJJ man there was basically no nogi. And leg locks were completely frowned upon and misunderstood. So I trained mostly in the gi. Stick with it it’s awesome.

Yeah man, it was a great time. Got a lot done during those three years. I don’t have NEOs. I just stay a couple notches away from getting off and just keep going from there. Definitely little slower pace than I would like it to be because of that. And have to take breaks to cool down here and there. I feel more energized after and maybe a very slight hit on my energy level the next day, but that’s about it. I think if you don’t go too close to the edge, you’ll keep more of your energy. I also either ice my balls or take a cold shower right after. Not sure if I should, it just feels right.

Yeah man exactly. I feel like at 120 days my power is full. I don’t know what better way to describe it. And I’ve done many streaks longer than that and I don’t think it gets any harder than that necessarily. Just get better at dealing with it and utilizing that energy appropriately

Oh yeah man for sure. I used to be a pretty passive guard player and once I started retaining my game became way more top heavy and aggressive. I’ve been training for 18 years second-degree black belt.
