More sex = less muscle growth?

We all know that testosterone means bigger muscles. That’s why women who exercise a ton don’t look like Arnold (thoguh they can take steroids for more testosterone and more muscles) and why bodybuilders (yes, Arnold too) take steroids and other supplements to boost testosterone levels.

Now most guys don’t need to look like Mr Olympia, but we do want big muscles so we go workout and eat lots of protein and whatnot. Enter this thread where at least one person who seems to know what he’s talking about suggests that orgasms might mean smaller muscles: “Teststosterone levels peak in males who have abstained from orgasm for 7 days.”
