I used to think that edging was the biggest cope and is a sure way to become a coomer
__________________________________________________________________________________
After doing a lot of research and experimenting myself, I realized that edging might be the one of the biggest slept on hardmaxxes on earth
Why do I call this a hardmaxx? Because it is extremely hard to do since you are going against your ingrained biology

How does it work?
Edging is the practice of stimulating yourself close to orgasm but stopping before ejaculation
When a man becomes sexually aroused, his body releases dopamine, a neurotransmitter that drives motivation and pleasure.
This dopamine surge triggers the hypothalamus, which then signals the pituitary gland to release Luteinizing Hormone (LH).
LH is the key hormone that tells the testes to produce more testosterone.
By repeatedly stimulating arousal without releasing, the brain continues to send signals to keep testosterone levels high.
Avoiding ejaculation prevents the release of prolactin, a hormone that lowers dopamine and testosterone after orgasm.
Prolactin is one of, if not the worst hormone a human male can have

Prolactin effects on male body:
hair fall
leaves you feel lethargic and depressed
gives you brainfog
makes you very tired
will give you gyno since it is LITERALLY a lactation hormone
+ many more

Edging increases nitric oxide (NO), which improves blood flow and enhances testosterone utilization.

The best way to use edging for testosterone optimization is to do it in moderation (no more than 15-30 minutes per session).

Why you must NOT overdo edging:
It will break your dopamine reward system
You will become retarded
You will become very frustrated and it will affect your everyday ability to do tasks
It will decrease your libido in the long term
You will eventually coom and looksmin yourself
It will increase your estrogen to unhealthy levels

Benefits of edging if DONE CORRECTLY:
You will have higher T and you will feel it
You will have a higher libido
You will become more masculine
You will have a lot more energy
Your drive to do stuff will dramatically increase
You will be more aggressive and give less fucks when talking to foids
You will feel your blood boil
You will become like Tryndamere when he presses R

It is basically like a mini-steroid
Most importantly it will grow your penis if you are going through puberty and are lean since your penis will be getting a lot more bloodflow + the added T + nitric oxide

Requirements to do Edging
Edging is very hard to do without fucking because it takes a mind made out of steal + very good PC muscle control.

If you think you will not be able to stop yourself from ejaculating, EDGING IS NOT FOR YOU.
__________________________________________________________________________________
When should you edge and how to completely control yourself?
MOST IMPORTANT THING IS TO SET A TIMER BEFORE STARTING AN EDGING SESSION, as stopping edging is practically IMPOSSIBLE, it LITERALLY hypnotizes you
![1738908318902 1738908318902](https://i.looksmax.org/attachments/2025/02/4698710_1738908318902.png)
When the time runs out, you ABSOLUTELY need to STOP
You should EDGE only in the morning, ideally while still in bed and having morning wood
Edging should be treated as a workout. Start edging for only 5 minutes and then increase the timer by 30 seconds everyday until you get to 15 minutes
__________________________________________________________________________________
KEGELS (Contraction Control)
Contract your PC muscle (like stopping urine midstream)
Hold for 5-10 seconds, then relax
Do 3 sets of 10 reps daily
This strengthens your ability to stop ejaculation
Here is a short video on how to do KEGELS:
__________________________________________________________________________________
Control your breathing
Controlling your breathing is essential when doing EDGING
You need to take deep, slow breaths to relax the nervous system
Practice box breathing
Inhale 4 seconds → Hold 4 seconds → Exhale 4 seconds → Hold 4 seconds.
The moment you feel like you’re about to lose control, take a long, deep breath through the nose and exhale slowly through the mouth and then take a break of 30 seconds ish to reset
__________________________________________________________________________________
Practice the start-stop method
Do the "90%, 80%, 70%" rule:
Get to 90% orgasm, then stop and take a 15 second break
Wait for arousal to drop to 60%, then start again.
Repeat this cycle multiple times per session.
Over time, your threshold for control will increase

You must never cross the point of no return, ever

If you are getting too close to ejaculation as a beginner:
Stand up and do some butterfly jumps to redirect blood flow
Think about something non-sexual to lower arousal
Take a break of 1 minute to reset

You should be on semen retention and doing edging to increase your T. People who do semen retention alone tend to get libido problems down the line
You SHOULD NOT DO EDGING TO PORN. PORN IS A WEAPON AND IT POISONS YOUR MIND. IT WILL ALSO MAKE EDGING OBSELETE IN THE LONG RUN SINCE YOU SIMPLY WON'T BE GETTING AROUSED ANYMORE.
USE YOUR MIND

Edging explained in further detail:
GnRH is not released constantly but in a rhythmic fashion, typically every 1 to 3 hours in healthy males.
Faster GnRH Pulses → More LH → More Testosterone
When GnRH is released at an optimal frequency, the pituitary gland increases LH secretion.
LH travels to the Leydig cells in the testes and stimulates testosterone production.
More testosterone leads to higher androgen activity.
Why Does Edging or Sexual Arousal Increase Pulsatile GnRH Release?
Sexual arousal and dopamine activation stimulate the hypothalamus to increase the frequency of GnRH pulses.
Edging delays ejaculation, which maintains high dopamine levels and prolongs GnRH pulsatility.
This means testosterone remains elevated for longer periods compared to post-ejaculation, where prolactin and dopamine suppression reduce GnRH pulses.
