Answer to Question 2

3. This is a common myth among athletes, and there is no basis in fact.

Rationale:
The idea that sexual activity weakens the person physically is a common misconception among athletes, but there is no evidence to support that idea. There is no evidence that avoiding intercourse is necessary. There is no evidence that sexual activity before intense exercise affects stamina or endurance.
