- brandall10 2y agoIt's commonly used in bodybuilding competitions.
- lukan 2y agoNow I cannot get that picture out of my head. A crowd full of bodybuilders in tight shorts and all on Viagra doing workouts. Each to his own I guess..
- idiotsecant 2y agoI'm pretty sure you don't just get random erections unless you're engaged in activity that you find sexually stimulating. ...so yes, probably.
- rs_rs_rs_rs_rs 2y ago> I'm pretty sure you don't just get random erections unless you're engaged in activity that you find sexually stimulating I think that's the case for Cialis but Viagra should make you "pop" regardless of what activity you're doing.
- Frost1x 2y agoThat’s not how it works at all. As someone with recent onset of ED taking viagra regularly, it’s been fantastic but it just makes me function like I should. It takes about an hour to take effect (usually less for me) and lasts a little over 4 hours with some lingering effects for several hours later, with diminishing effects towards the 4 and above hours. If I’m sexually stimulated during that time physically and or mentally, everything works like it should (erection). If during that time even when I would normally see peak effects around the 50 min to 90 min mark I’m driving or doing taxes or whatever non-sexually stimulating activity one might do, no erection at all.

- kwhitefoot 2y ago> Viagra should make you "pop" regardless of what activity you're doing. No it doesn't. It simply makes the effect of sexual stimulation more effective. If you body is not trying to engorge the penis it has little to no effect on that part of you. At least that is my experience of taking it.
- Fire-Dragon-DoL 2y agoIsn't random erections a requirement for healthy genitalia in males?
- pcthrowaway 2y agoNot exactly 'random'. I mean, typically it would be during periods of relaxation and certain stages of sleep. Adult males in their 30s or older very rarely just get a random erection with no physical or mental stimulation while going about their business.
- rs_rs_rs_rs_rs 2y agoBodybuilders at competition time have very low body fat and are very dehidrated, it's never an "issue".
- Iulioh 2y agoAnd really big hormonal issues caused by the low body fat. Bodybuilders (in the months before competing, while cutting) can't get it up even if they wanted to.
- BossingAround 2y agoI don't know how people imagine viagra working - it's not like you take a pill, you continue browsing the internet, reading news, and suddenly, a boner lifts your desk.
- robxorb 2y agoThat's pretty much how I imagined it working. Was news to me to read in a sibling that it also requires mental stimulation. I thought it was purely a physical inducement by the drug, as many drugs for other purposes induce a physical response without requiring mental effort.
- lukan 2y agoMe too. Even xkcd helped spread missinformation about the topic .. https://xkcd.com/779/ https://xkcd.com/779/
- coldtea 2y ago>it's not like you take a pill, you continue browsing the internet, reading news, and suddenly, a boner lifts your desk. Aside from the lifting the desk part, that's exactly how I imagine it working - and how it should work. You mean it also requires special sexual arousal? Well, even that it shouldn't be that difficult.
- fostware 2y agoI imagine some just need a stiff breeze
- anjel 2y agoFor unstimulated desk lifting erections, there is trimix https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trimix_(drug) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trimix_(drug)
- bitwize 2y agoSounds like an Elton John video. Most male bodybuilders wear loose shorts (or e.g., track pants) for workouts, the tight trunks being worn on the contest stage.
- Traubenfuchs 2y agoLong term PDE 5 treatment lowers estrogen and increases testosterone. As a consequence of that, and its cardiovasvular effects, it makes it easier for the body to turn fat into energy by fat-browning, to grow muscles and to lose fat.
- hammyhavoc 2y agoTadalafil works well for getting more out of your workouts too (I take that). Gives you an overall feeling of well-being too (better than any cup of joe), I no-bullshit begin my day with it.
- salad-tycoon 2y agoTadalfil or Cialis is more popular for this from what I can tell. Last 17-36 hours. “Good for gym pumps, my bros”
