I'm sure diet has a lot to do with it. I mean, if a girl can tell if you've had dairy, citrus, or beer from tasting your cum, diet must be a large factor. Which brings me to my other point, that I bet all of the processed foods does not help in sperm count I bet. Google it!

Just wondering why guys ejaculate more and some is thicker?
Quote by SereneProdigy
Personally, the more I ejaculate, the more liquidy my cum is. My cum is almost translucent in such a case, and also very light/slippery, hence why it can make such a mess at times.
My tricks to cum more (aside from apparently being genetically gifted in that domain) :
- Drinking a lot of water
- Taking a 50mg zinc supplement daily
- Holding a few days (2+) without ejaculating
- Edging (stimulating, pausing, pursuing, etc.)

The amino acids are L arginine and L lysine. I know it sounds strange but Horny Goat Weed is also supposed to help.
There's been a recent study at an American Univesity that found the average ejaculate has fallen by 20% in the last 50 years and the average sperm count down by nearly 50%.
As well as zinc and hydration male Kegel execises are meant to help. Look them up they're funny!

On the arginine and lysine, it should be noted that they compete with each other for absorption and could be ineffective when taken at the same time. I take arginine anyway because it helps me with my workouts as a nitric oxide booster. It should be taken on an empty stomach (I take up to 3g at a time), and it does seem to have an effect on the volume of ejaculation. I've pumped a girl's ass full of cum and had her tell me 2 (!) days later that it's STILL coming out.
Other things I've personally found to be helpful are indeed keeping myself well hydrated, and supplementing with zinc (50mg/day)

Curiosity here, since we're both part of the bodybuilding community...
I take scoops of protein powder quite often (up to 3/day), and they each already contain a decent amount of arginine/lysine (500-1000mg/scoop). I also eat protein sources at every meal (salmon/chicken), and they each contain around 2,5g of arginine.
Do you really notice a difference with the added arginine supplement (in terms of both ejaculation/workout)?
With my current protein intake, I probably already ingest 7-8g of arginine per day (which is a hefty more than the average man), so I'm questioning the need to invest in a supplement. I once argued about BCAAs in a similar fashion with other fitness guys, and really never understood the point of investing $30 for a pot of BCAAs when just a scoop of your average whey protein contains just as much BCAAs, as well as other less important proteins.

I think that the key points about amino acid supplementation are the absorption rate and the concentration. Whey protein is quite fast absorbing, but it still doesn't quite compare to free form amino acids. And you may get similar total amounts from just regular protein, but in order to facilitate immediate physiological respose, free amino acids may be useful.
For example, the supplemented arginine works best when taken on an empty stomach, with nothing to slow down or inhibit its absorption. I notice the pump, and it does help in my experience. It definitely helps me squeeze in more reps and sets that I'd normally have failed on. And yes, I feel that my ejaculations have gotten even bigger since I started taking arginine. I didn't even know at first that it could have such an effect, so I doubt it's just in my head.
I also buy all my supplements from a cheap bulk supplier, and actually think they're a very affordable investment considering the tangible benefits I'm seeing. I'd never buy small colourful pots with outrageous advertisement claims, those are indeed a huge rip-off. BCAAs are definitely my favourite, an absolute must have for me.

Thanks for your answer. I'm still a bit doubtful though. Maybe it has an effect, but I still don't perceive these supplements as a top priority.
As I've argued many times in the past before, in my opinion someone who has a balanced/steady diet will have those proteins released in their blood stream in a potent quantity no matter the time of the day. Some people believe in this strange notion that digestion and macro-nutriments absorption occur rapidly (1-3 hours), which has been debunked in studies. Nutrient timing was also questioned a lot lately, hence why new 'methods' like IIFYM (If It Fits Your Macros) are becoming more and more popular.
For example, if I eat a can of salmon at noon, the proteins won't be released in one shot 3 hours later ; the '3 hours mark' in this case is the evaluated time the meal (salmon) will have exited the stomach entirely, but it will still be digested in the intestines for probably the next 24 hrs (if not more). It will also release its macro-nutriments steadily in the blood stream for that much of time.
If I workout at 6pm, I'll most probably still receive plenty of proteins from my dinner and breakfast that day, as well as from my late snack, supper and dinner the day before, even if I workout on an empty stomach (ie. no pre-workout meal).
Anyway, I digress a lot here. You probably heard it all before...

LOL, we're getting into an interesting debate here, though it is 100% unrelated to the initial question of this thread.
Quote by doctorloveYou can get some caplets at adult shops which is supposed to increase semen volume. I think what it's called "MaxLoad" lol. Personally, i wouldn't try anything like that

Read up on celery. From what i've read thru google, it's supposed to provide an increase the size of your load provided you eat a ton of it. Plus it dialates your blood vessels and helps control blood pressure among other things.
