Glans rings to stop turtling.

I’ve been using glans rings to avoid turtling for the last few days. I like it more then using wraps, or “Get a Grip”.

Right now I am using 5, 1 inch brass o-rings. They add up to a little over 2 ounces, and seem just right for days off. I’m sure I’m not the first to try this. Anyone else have anything to add? I have ordered some heavier o-rings, so I don’t have to put as many on.

The brass o-rings look good, and I have gotten compliments on them.

Are those household products?

Metal Rings

These are the two I have ordered from, but just google brass, or stainless steel o-rings if you want to explore more.

Someone on here used ( or many still do? ) Golf weights. As an all day ADS and also wantsmore came up with (at least I think he did) with the idea to stretch with them in fulcrum. Just search wantsmores fulcrums

The standard golf ring you can buy on the open market weighs 5.35 oz and has an inside diameter of 1¼ inches. This is more weight than needed to just keep from turtling.

The o-rings are for days off, so I am not concerned about ADS. I just want to avoid turtling and take a break from any kind of stretching. The o-rings are just enough weight to keep from turtling, and small enough diameter to stay in place without anything else. I find this is working better then wrapping, or using “Get a Grip”s; Just slip on the o-rings, and I am good for the day.

After over a year and a half of doing PE, I have discovered the importance of days off.

Couldn’t find any in my house. Did you see that stealth post on here?

What stealth post? I don’t know what a stealth post is.

Any good hardware store should have a selection of o-rings. I find the 1 inch ID works best for me. If you want some heavier rings the sailboat store link in my previous post has some that weigh .8 ounces, and heavier for larger diameters.

I plan on stopping at a store that sells horse and saddle stuff this weekend. They might have some heavier o-rings, so I will only need two or three instead of the four or five I am now using. The sailboat store is back ordered. She told me there was a big run on o-rings. I wonder how many are being used for cock rings. They have a great selection at good prices. I have seen the pear rings sold as cock rings at around $80 on some of the sex toy sights. I don’t know how one would size them, or if they are exactly the same, but they appear to be pear rings. These would be behind the balls cockrings, and I am getting off the subject of glans rings, and turtling.

The thing is to just have enough weight to avoid turtling on healing days. In my case around 2 ounces is all that is needed.

Wearing a ring all day? What if you get a boner? Is that dangerous? I put a silicone Cock ring on and went to the grocery store one day, by the time I got home, my glans was purple. Scary.

Its apparently another method of stopping turtling. Twas very intrigued by the post, worth a look. But gl with that fellow hanger. I shall follow your progress.

I haven’t had any problems wearing the rings all day. First they are metal, so they are are a looser fit. Silicon is not intended for an all day cock ring because they are meant to be tighter to allow for their own expansion. Second constriction is not what this is about, it is about a small amount of weight to keep from turtling. The ring goes right behind the glans, and need not be at all tight.

If you try this, it is much easier to pull the head through the ring then to try to push it all the way through. I am using a 1 inch ID. I don’t go to sleep with Them on, but I go about my normal daily activities with them, and they keep me from turtling. That is all they are supposed to do.

Prior to this I was using the “Have a Grip”s. I think I would rather have the glans ring then the Have a Grip on with a boner, as long as the cock ring isn’t too tight I think I could slide it off from behind the head. With cock rings cold water can usually get them off if nothing else works. There is some common sense involved before putting one on. To get used to sizes hard plastic curtain rings are a good way to experiment. If it is too tight, you can just break it off, or cut it. A too tight steel ring could result in a trip to the emergency room.

I’ve been rocking rings since 2009. I posted a thread back in 2010 but can’t find it. I get 315 surgical steel. I use a 1” dia “glans ring” that is open underneath and has 2 ball bearings. I use two 1.25” (“cock rings”)above that. google demented visions. A little pricey at about $12/ring but I have never had problems. Never rust, never anything. They are a decent weight (not ADS). I weighed the grams before but can’t remember. Essentially, you have 3 steel rings hanging towards the end of your junk. Frankly, I am so used to it, I feel annoyed when I forget to put them on.

If this is a 3 ring rig, I have worn up to a 6 ring rig but it would fall at times. 3 is the right rig for my daily use.

CAUTION- although it is not at the base of your junk- you have to take the rings off at night. You start feeling like it is just part of you and can forget at times. Not good.

At an average of what looks like 5 posts a year, it is an honor to recieve one from you.

So far with my approximately 1 week experiment I have been using 5, 1 inch ID brass rings which converts to 54 grams ( or ~ 11 grams each). I have on order; 304 stainless steel Sea Dog o-rings which are over 2x’s as heavy (23 grams each), so I should get by with 2 or 3, and at $1.69 each, I could afford to lose one once in awhile. I think as well as being heavier, the larger wire diameter rings (1/4 inch) would tend to pinch less, but I am making do for now with the lighter wire brass rings.

I have seen the double balled head rings, and I will keep them in mind if I need something to keep the other rings in line. Both 315 stainless steel and 304 would have small to zero amounts of nickel (the amount of nickel is the second number).

Like you said, you feel annoyed when you forget to put the rings on; I think they are almost addicting. I like the way they feel, and have to remind myself to take them off before sleep.

Thank you repeater. I love reading thunders but am not much of a poster.

I am a ring guy. I feel very few people use them and for me, it has made a great difference in not feeling shrinky dink (grower not shower syndrome).

I dabble in PE, but never anything consistent except rings. I’ve maybe missed 20 days since 2009.

I see that you have actually weighed them yourself. HA, yes you are into it. And I agree, if you can find the best economical set up with something that is safe (material), perfect.

They are pretty great and you can wear them wherever short of yoga or wrestling. Great for gym, jogging, etc. I remember kicking (sprinting) at the end of a running race and having my rings flying off (rare) and having to go back and find them in the grass. No shame. My rings.

For a while, I would pump then put on extra large rings (same set up) and although it was only temporary, until about 2pm, junk looked like an alien. great, addictive.

If anyone is interested, here are the old posts (not thread, my mistake) with pics of the rig: Argolla en la cabeza (p. 13)

(It is in spanish but the pics are in English- HA)

The ‘turtling’ won’t hurt you, its just nature’s way and nature knows what’s good for your unit. I turtle better than a turtle and I am huge.

No. Turtle sucks. Big time. Nature knows dick. If nature knew anything she would have gave me a big dick in the first place.
