Personally i recoomend you to do it. Relations with bjj are:

1-Healthier dopamine levels makes you feel more motivated about your goals. You want to train more. You pay attention more and improve more.With low level dopamine precisions Fapping with porn decreases your desire for bjj. Not spesificly bjj but everything needs effort to improve you.
2-One of the side effects of watching extreme amounts of girls (that our ancestors didnt even see them in their entire life) in one page; makes your brain to stay at confort zone more. So you feel very tired during the training sessions. It is not that your sperms includes a lot of proteins and takes your energy away... It is all about stimulation of your brain by porn. So it will not send forcing signals to your muscles. It has rewarded a lot so will make your body exhausted and perky.
Even Rickson Gracie does not ejeculate from 2 weeks before his matches you can watch his documentary.

The major question one should ask themselves is: Is it worth it?


If I feel sluggish I'll drink a pre-workout.

[the Lich Samurai]

sounds like a wrong decision.pre workouts are another stimulants like cofee so they effect your brain like masturbation. they decreases athletes performance if they use it very often.

Is there a difference in performance if one self abuses or if you are with your partner?

I vote for more sex is better!

I think I've read somewhere some time ago that actual sex leads to a higher amount of hormones (i think it was dopamine) that are released

Exactly. Masturbation is an external stimulus while sex is an internal fullfilment. If she is healthy and you like her... one of the best meditations is sex.

[Juicedog20]

in fact, sex makes you feel happy, and, simultaneously, it takes your internal power and the strength, so don't have sex before training or competitions! But, all we love sex as all we need to be satisfied, and, as for me, I feel satisfaction when I can see that my wife enjoys the process. But you?

To be honest, I wasn't the perfect lover in my 20's as I was inexperienced "teen" with no experience about how to have sex, however, that situation bothered me, so I was searching for kind of "guide" where I could explore the secrets or tips on how to treat myself with a woman. And you know what? I found a site with a book about lesbian erotica where I found plenty of tips that guided me, and you know, if you will listen to the book carefully, then you fill find the tips too

The body's levels naturally wax and wane. The most optimal is to have regular sex but not go fkn crazy with it. When men are younger they have more capacity to jizz, but at my age (43) the taoist stuff says once a week or every couple weeks. This is why there's a sort of bottoming out at around 2 months or so - because even if you're doing nofap, your body's levels are still going to wax & wane. Testosterone etc.

tl;dr dont be a deviant and you'll do allright

Wrt fap, hands arent good because its easy to use too much grip strength which will put a bad back pressure on the prostate. The very act of fucking engages so many more muscles, it serves to keep everything primed properly when your expression is from fucking instead of fapping. You want to be a 2 pump chump, fap a lot. You want to be a stallion, dont use your hand at all, hang a towel on your morning wood and do reverse breathing/standing post exercise and reabsorb that shit.
