Fortunately, sex is not on the doping list.
In an interview, former Wimbledon player Francesca Schiavone revealed the secret of her success: SEX!
“For a woman, sex before a game is not only legal, it’s fantastic. It increases hormone levels.”
The Italian was able to keep up well with this tactic for many years. She took part in the legendary Wimbledon tournament 17 times – but she never got further than the quarter-finals.
She celebrated her greatest success in 2010 by winning the French Open.
She continued to play actively until 2018 without having a similarly great success.
Either she swore off her lust for the flesh – or her secret recipe wasn’t the big winner after all.
… however, Brazil legend Ronaldo and Sepp Maier also claimed that sex right before the game (in Sepp’s case it was allegedly even just 60 minutes before kick-off) was their great secret of success.
Even in 2022, it is still not scientifically clear in what form pre-exercise will increase performance in women.
While men break down testosterone during sex, the opposite is true for women. This leads to them being stimulated and revitalized.
