It has been nearly four years since I began my journey with semen retention (SR), and I’m still going strong. This practice has undeniably changed my life. While I wouldn’t say it has turned me into a "superhuman," it has made me feel like a "supercharged version" of myself—a better, more refined me.

Over the years, I’ve experienced numerous benefits: a deeper voice, increased masculinity, more decisiveness, less need for sleep, and more. However, I want to focus on the benefits that have had the most profound impact on my life.

Before we dive in, it’s important to note a key aspect of SR: the law of diminishing returns. The longer you stay on this journey, the less noticeable the benefits might feel—not because they diminish, but because you become so accustomed to living at a higher baseline that the extraordinary becomes your new normal.

I’m a 21-year-old man who started semen retention four years ago to transform my life. At the time, I was dealing with low self-esteem, obesity, and various addictions. I wanted to break free from these vices and build a life I could be proud of. SR was one of the foundational practices I adopted, and I believe it’s the first step for anyone seeking change. Why? Because it amplifies everything else you do—whether spiritual, mental, physical, financial, or relational.

Key Benefits of Semen Retention

1. A Surge in Energy

Semen retention multiplies your energy and makes you more you, not a different person.

This has two components:

• Becoming more of who you are: Many of us start this journey to become someone we’re not—more masculine, disciplined, and confident. While SR can help you develop these traits, it doesn’t fundamentally change who you are overnight. I’ve become more disciplined, but I know there’s still room for improvement. The same applies to other qualities. SR enhances what’s already within you, the rest you have to learn it.
• Energy amplification: If you’re generally a happy person, SR will make you happier. If you’re naturally focused, it will enhance your focus. It amplifies your existing traits.

2. Heightened Attraction

One of the most surprising effects of SR is the attraction you draw from others, particularly women.

As your journey progresses, you’ll notice people—especially women—acting more helpful and attentive toward you. They may not necessarily seek your attention but seem instinctively drawn to support you, almost as if they owe you something.

Young people, whether girls or boys, often react to your presence with a mix of respect, attraction, or even intimidation. It’s a bizarre but fascinating shift. Children, in particular, seem naturally drawn to you—they’ll observe you closely, sometimes even stare for minutes at a time.

3. Freedom from Lust

At this stage of my journey, lust no longer has any hold over me.

For example, when I go to the gym and see a beautiful woman, my reaction is neutral. I don’t find myself thinking, “Wow, she’s beautiful!” She’s simply a person—no more, no less. The urge to objectify or act on lustful impulses has disappeared entirely. She is just a woman like many other women.

4. Reawakening the Inner Child

One of the most joyous benefits of SR is reconnecting with the spontaneous, playful energy of your inner child.

Conversations flow more naturally, and your energy levels skyrocket. It feels as though you’ve matched the boundless enthusiasm of a child, but within the body and presence of a grown man. This energy brings an effortless vitality to daily life.

The most important lesson I’ve learned on this journey is that the life of a man is a constant struggle for control. If you lower your guard, even for a moment, you can easily fall back into old vices. Lust and other desires are always waiting for an opportunity to pull you back down. This understanding has made me realize the importance of vigilance and discipline in maintaining the progress I’ve worked so hard to achieve.

In conclusion semen retention has been a transformative practice for me. While it’s not a magic solution to every problem, it provides a powerful foundation that amplifies everything else you do. If you’re considering embarking on this journey, know that it’s not about becoming someone else—it’s about becoming the best, most supercharged version of yourself.
