Baseball Bat and base girth

I had been jelqing about 15 minutes each morning and have seen great results. This morning I decided to up it to 20 minutes of very intense jelqing. I experienced a few things:

First, and this has happened before, I was very thick at the end but not as much at the base. I was suffering from the dreaded baseball bat effect How can I avoid this?

Second, at the end of my session the skin on my shaft had pulled up towards the head and was sort of bunched up there. It looked lumpy and swollen. My penis looked very weird. I think I may have to loosen and not do them quite as intense.either that or use more lube.

Would anyone care to offer me some advice? Thanks gang

Is your penis naturally thinner near the base? Perhaps the jelqing is just augmenting how your penis naturally is.

On second thought, this sounds like the donut effect.

Reverse jelqs is the only thing I can think of for someone just starting PE. After a couple months, you could try hanging. Alot of guys seen alot of base girth gains from it.

If you don’t want to hang, you can also increase base girth by doing more manual stretching.

You know the old adage about the grass always being greener? Well, I wish I could get a baseball bat effect. My dick is naturally thicker at the base and tapers to the head, I would like to make it close to the same thickness the entire length. So exactly how did you manage to get the baseball bat effect?

I think the baseball bat effect came just from the way the blood is forced from the base towards the head. It is a bit harder for me to get a full grip around the base as well. A lot of times I cannot get the full ‘ok grip’ around the base.

As for hanging, I was thinking about it.but I am not sure how my wife would react with the hanging contraption in our bedroom. Plus, with my luck she would come in and I would be using it! (She knows I am doing PE, but she laughs at me)

As for manual stretching, perhaps I have not been doing it correctly. I have never been able to get a good enough grip for the stretch unless I grip directly behind the glans. This, consequently, has caused bruising on the glans itself. That occurred 2 months ago and there is still slight bruising.
I have tried to grip behind the glans about an inch which does not promote the bruising, but the stretch I am getting does not feel as intense as I would like.
