Is masturbation truly harmful for bodybuilding? also masturbating 7 times a week can develop weakness in the penis??

No & No: Masturbation is not harm ful unless UR too rough with yourself. Nor will U develop a weak penis. Although finding a suitable partner for sexual release would be ideal. Good Luck

Masturbation Myths: Nope. There are no negative health consequences to masturbation in general. All boys and men who can masturbate or have masturbated. Even those who body build with you.

Neither is true: Not a problem either way and the strength of the penis has to do wtih blood supply, rather than amount of use.

No & no: Neither of these things are true. Sexual activity, whether on one's own or with a partner, has zero effect on bodybuilding or penile 'strength", whatever that really is. These are normal body functions!
