blow one's load
Finish too soon
Blow one's load means to ejaculate—a vulgar but common expression.
By extension, it means to expend all one's resources or energy at once, often prematurely or unwisely: Don't blow your load in the first quarter; pace yourself.
The metaphor of sudden, complete release applies to spending money, using up ammunition, or exhausting arguments too early.
