Way back in the early ‘80s when I was a college athlete, I recall my coach using the phrase “women weaken legs”! I am sure that it was before a big game, or an early heads up to the incoming freshman athletes. While I can’t recall the specific scenario, it is now almost 30 years later, and yet I still remember the phrase.
The expression raises many interesting questions ….
For example, is there scientific evidence to back this claim??
Are there certain sexual acts that are more prone to the weakening effect? How important is the “women” in this act (if you know what we mean)?
Maybe, more importantly, who were the lucky athletes who were involved in this study?? … “ok, go have sex for an hour and then we need you to run two miles” ….
How about the poor guys that were psyched to be involved in the study, only to find out that were in the “no sex” group??
If there is any evidence that “women weaken legs”, then does the reciprocal apply? Do “Men Weaken Legs” as well?? Any female athletes have some input on this one?
So, what do you think (or know)??? Do you have any first hand stories to share? Any medical professionals want to chime in (thinking that some doctor probably got a federal grant to check into this)?
