Olympic legend, Usain Bolt has opened up on his sex life as an athlete and how it affected his performances on the track.
According to Bolt, at the start of his career, he tried to mix and match both sex and high performance on the track. It, however, did not work out for him.
“In the early days, I did try having sex before a race, just to see if it helped. It was a disaster. I was nowhere.” the ex-sprint king said.
“I’m a young guy. I like to have a good time. I can train hard, but I also need some downtime. If I don’t go out and let off steam, I go a bit crazy.
“My coach understood, and we worked out a good system. Even though I went to parties, I was still winning races. If I was coming last, sure, you can tell me to stop partying, but if I’m breaking world records, you got no right to tell me what to do.”
Bolt also spoke on his relationship with Kasi Bennett. The pair have been together for over five years.
He said: “I have to talk about it, otherwise my mum starts complaining. Every time I ring home, the only thing she wants to know is when we’re getting married and when we’re gonna have kids.
“Me and Kasi had a serious talk last year after I retired, but she was just about to launch her new business and we didn’t want the pressure of trying to deal with everything at the same time.
“I’m pretty sure there’ll be some news next year.
“I want to be a father and I’m looking forward to that future. The next stage for me. I’m still a kid myself, so I think I’ll be a cool dad.”
