i've heard a few myths about it…but what do you guys think about sex the day before a meet? some people do, some people don't, some peole say it makes your legs or knees week, can/does anything really happen to hurt your performance?

i know this girl who i went to States with, and everyone knew she had sex the night before her finals in the 100 hurdles…and she performed HORRIBLE the next day and dropped out of her next race…i dont know if this is coincidence or not….

my guess is its different for each person,
let me know your thoughts

all ladies out there, he's a pic of me…:cool:

Sex would probably completely drain you for your events, thinking about it wouldn't really do anything to hurt you, and most of us probably think do that anyway, whether we decide to or not

ACTUALLY, sex CAN help, but it's mostly a preferential thing.  There's a "deep" discussion about this on another board LOL  (sorry had to say it)

I have actually had sex the night before a meet, and to be honest, i think it helped me, because the 2 times i did do it, i ran PR's in the 200 the next day.
