Doing sports is good for health, it is a fact, but it seems that biking in high doses can have
harmful effects on sperm quality. A Spanish study carried out by Professor Vaamonde, University
of Cordoba shows without doubt that the sperms are altered in advanced rider people.
The study was conducted in 2008 with 45 men. Divided into three groups according to their sporting activity,
the quality of their sperm was examined and everything is past volume, acidity (pH), viscosity,
mobility, morphology, etc..Finally Researchers were able to establish a profile of semen quality
of each volunteer.
Three profiles have been prepared by researchers.
The observation of this study show that cycling and sperm do not mix.
Indeed, it establishes that the practice of cycling significantly affects the quality of
sperm that is for the mobility, concentration and morphology.
The morphology of male gametes is the parameter most affected by cycling.
It seems that even the elite level know fertility problems.
To explain the phenomenon, researchers argue several cases: too much heat, too much friction in
the crotch or the production of free radicals,
together or separately, these assumptions could explain the lack of semen quality among cyclists.
As if against cyclists do love frequently,it might compensate for these alterations.
In any case, Australian medical study published recently suggests that (see link below)
quickly ejaculated semen was a better quality semen, suggesting in
conclusion to make love every day.
