BERLIN: Women sprinters who have sex before competing generally perform better but men should avoid amorous exploits before taking to the track, the trainer of Germany's men's sprinting team said on Friday.


"With women, it's not true that sex before competitions has negative effects. On the contrary, we have scientific evidence that women who have sex shortly before competing run better. It boosts performance," Uwe Hakus told Germany's Fit for Fun magazine.


"With women the testosterone levels rise when they have sex. But, unfortunately, male testosterone levels fall after orgasm. And their muscles are less able to contract," Hakus said.


However, Hakus warned that sexual intercourse before running could hit any athlete's concentration.


"Everyone has to make their own decision on what their goals are. And this decision they make on their own," Hakus said.


The European athletics championships are currently taking place in Munich.
