Sylvester Stallone wants you to know that he can be strong like bull and avoid sex at all costs - that is, just so he can excel in his latest movie role then it's back to getting down and dirty.

Stallone recently said that he was put on a sex ban while he filmed the latest Rocky movie and miraculously stuck to it.

The 60-year-old action star - who is married to former model Jennifer Flavin - was happy to adhere to the ban because he had no energy left for the bedroom after his grueling daily training regime.

He told Scotland's Daily Record newspaper, "There is only so much energy in the body and I know some athletes in the film didn't adhere to the ban, but I did because I knew it was the only way."

He added, "I hear David Beckham says he doesn't, but maybe he's the exception. The people I know who fight all stick to a sex ban because if they don't they lose."

Stallone - who is reprising his legendary role for the sixth time in "Rocky Balboa" - says you only have to look at nature to see how the most sexually frustrated animals are the more aggressive.

He added, "I mean, look at nature. Think about the wild bull and those guys in the pasture having fun. Who do you think would win in a fight between them? The wild bull of course. Of course it is hard to do, but that's why you fight so well. You are aggravated you just want to get it over with."
