Does not masturbating give you extra energy?

I came across nofap (so to speak) on reddit earlier today.
Essentially they abstain from masturbation thinking that it makes them healthier and more 'magnetic'.
Has anyone ever abstained for any length of time? I'm tempted to try out of curiosity, but fear it may drive me bonkers.

PS Thanks Biffo!
PPS Seriously, this is hilarious!
She said "Hugh, you're going to have to stop masturbating".
"Why?" I replied.
"Because I'm about to examine you".
I thought boxers refrained for a few days as well, to raise aggression.
Not literally, it's just a phrase.
Heh heh, did your boyfriend/husband tell you that one by any chance?!:D:D:D
I think they are expected, in a symbolic way obviously, to **** the opposition instead
New Age Mumbo Jumbo.
I expect that's the government's fault.
I had a frap this morning, now in the gym and just beat a pb, I don't think it makes any difference!
We're not talking about coffee ...
So is your new PB twice in one morning then? Seems low.
You should have seen the look the guy training next to me gave me.
if someone abstains then maybe their body "thinks" that you don't need to do it, and then lowers the testosterone level? That's what I would think might happen.
The theory was that being able to quickly click from movie to movie or picture to picture on the internet had made some men too fussy over what turns them on and what doesn't. If the person or people in the porn weren't perfect to them it's easy to move on to the next one.
At an extreme level this is said to have left some blokes struggling to get it up when it comes to sex if they find that their partner has any physical flaws (in their opinion) or has something not quite to their liking in a physical sense. They're apparently unable to overlook these imperfections. Cutting out the porn was said to help and made them appreciate their partner more.
That kind of assumes that men are the fussy ones.
While there's some evidence that frequent ejaculation may decrease the risk of prostate cancer, I've not heard of any evidence that abstaining increasing energy. In this case, erring on the safe side might actually be more fun.
No but your tubes can get blocked or twisted as it happened to me
I was following the "no fap" rule and it definitely helped my energy levels, but it can be very tough because you can get extremely horny on occasions. It's just choosing the right thing to do on those occasions lol.
