Wow, there is a lot of misinformation out there.

Sex will NOT "suck the blood out of your thighs". Sex is NOT going to drain you of adrenaline.

Adrenaline is a hormone released in response to a stimulus. Most of the time it is the "fight or flight" type thing, but it can be in response to any stressful type stimulation.

Adrenaline does a lot of things. It temporarily shuts down all digestion, it increases the production of glucose from stores, lots of effects that basically prepare you for a fight.

You can train to get "pumped up" for an event. This is done by having a ritual that you do every time you compete. That way your body goes through the same routine, and you start getting that excited edge.

My personal routine: Night before, iron my dobok, pack my bag. Morning of, get up and have an egg sandwich with bacon. At the tournament, I go through my same warmup, and then when my ring is called, another miniwarmup. I also listen to heavy metal, usually Iron Maiden or Queensryche. That keys my brain into the fact that I'm about to compete, and I start getting that surge.

That will help you out. Think of yourself as one of Pavlov's dogs, it works on people too.

"Women weaken legs!!" (Mic, to Rocky.)

The best way to reduce adrenaline release is through adrenal-stress training, to get used to the things that cause adrenaline dumps, and to lessen the chances of it dumping.

This is so true. The more experience you have in situations where adrenaline and other stress hormones are high, the better you will keep your wits about you and use it to your advantage.
