Confusion On Proper Grip For Stretching

Hey Guys,

So I’m a total beginner here. I’ve been following bits of newbie routine, easing into jelqing, and learning as much as I can. I did have a question about manual stretches, though.

I’ve watched the various videos and I am slightly confused about the grip. It appears you grip your penis right below the glans and then stretch. But on a couple of threads, some members were advising when you jelq to stop right before the glans because there are some nerves there that you don’t want to damage. So I wanted to clarify with you guys if it’s ok to apply pressure right under the glans for stretching purposes. The video makes it seems like he’s gripping it pretty tight. I just don’t want to do any damage. I am circumcised, btw (not sure if that factors in).

Also, one other quick question: Is it ok to kegel every once and a while during a jelq? Sometimes I find it maintains the 50 to 80 percent erection quality for longer. But today, after a morning session, I felt a little bit of a weird sensation when doing it (almost like a pulled a muscle) so I cut my exercise short. Could just be getting used to things still, but I’d rather be safe that sorry. Only got one penis!!

Thanks guys!

Tricks And Tips For Manual Stretching

Can someone tell me why I’m not suppose to hold the head when I stretch? I do this a lot. What can I damage?

Never hold the glans in a stretch, it can hurt it. I am on a break right now because I did just that. The glans is the most sensitive part on the penis and is not meant to be pulled on.

Also something to note is that many of the instructional videos use a death grip and is much harder than you should use.

For safety reasons grip half an inch below the glans when stretching. Also stop jelqing half an inch below the glans.

You can kegel every now and then when jelqing. Just don’t do it in every rep, if you are doing separate kegels on the same day.
