I only train for 30 mins and that too with 15 kg weight .is it because of the weight trainning I just started. Should I just continue or stop it.

HI
Well come to HCM
Weight lifting does not affect the erection, because erection actually taking place in brain area, and this impulse travel down towards the penis for supplying more blood in penis and this cause erection, even slight mental disturbance could affect this procedure and most common cause would be anxiety depression, stress, try to come out of this then every thing would be fine, hope this information helps, take care.
