cookie tree — I try to use the extender 4 hours per day, 5 days a week. I’ve been averaging closer to 3 hours per day.
My other PE routine is a little different than others. I also jelq. For lube, I use a creamy body moisturizer first, then add either vegetable oil or light body oil. It works fantastic. I’m actually moisturizing my penis & glides a lot easier. I don’t care for dry jelqing & don’t get the same effect.
I like to jelq at 80%+ because I get the best engorgement & I really feel the cavities fill up with blood & place the amount of pressure I believe gives me best bang for buck. I usually start at base & work up to midway (or slightly past), because any further up the shaft & I notice that engorgement to the tip drops.
I would dissuade newbies from doing this next part. I’ve been doing this for over a year & it took me a while to figure out the exact level of force. Too much can cause pain & injury. With that, what I do now is I use a metal cock ring behind the ball sack. Why? Because I can jelq as close to
the base as possible & the cock ring helps maintain the 80%+ engorgement. I move my grip very slowly up the shaft, being completely in tune with the pressure & careful not to exceed safe levels. Sometimes I get to a near full erection, but usually never reaches full hardness, maybe 95%.
This technique really allows me to get a different engorgement feeling. I can’t quite explain it, but I feel I’m getting to areas that I wouldn’t normally reach at let’s say 70-80%.
As of the last few weeks, I’m experimenting with pumping. I took it slow, & made some mistakes, & it has taken some practice to determine the proper level of psi. I try to keep it at 4-5 psi, & if I get up to 6 or 7 few seconds at a time allowing pressure to drop slowly to safer range, then I don’t leave it there but for a few seconds, may 15-20 maximum, no more. Pumping is not
for newbies. It can be dangerous. One time I held the pressure above 5 too long, & noticed a blister on the frenulum start to form. I stopped immediately, & gave it a day or so rest, & the blister went away. I can only imagine how much more serious it could have been. So KNOW YOUR PENIS & what it can handle. Realize that one of the biggest risks I have faced is that as I increase the pressure, it feels fantastic, almost to point of pre-ejaculation point. So Beware!!! There is risk of injury when exceeding safe levels even if it feels fantastic. Something can be damaged, perhaps permanently & could be a long healing process. I hope I’m stressing this enough.
Here’s what I like about pumping: It forces my penis to max girth but also pushing max length. It’s forcing the chambers to expand both laterally & longitudinally simultaneously. I noticed my flaccid length to increase 1/16 - 1/8th inch & expect that it’ll translates to erect length. I try not to measure too often because results come slow. I’m hoping this isn’t just a temporary gain & that I will be able to lock it in. I will only keep the pump on for about 15 minutes max, alternating pressures between 3-5, sometimes 6-7 depending where the engorgement is focused & being in tune with safety & how penis is responding. I always want to give adequate rest in between 15 minute sessions, & sometimes add a few jelqs, depending how I’m responding, then pump for another 15 minutes. I find that pumping more than 2 sessions is over training for me, and if I do, I may skip a day or two before I resume pumping.
So in a nutshell I will continue to wear extender 3-4 hours/day, 5 days a week. I almost always rest on the weekend. I feel resting really helps.
I jelq with a cock ring (usually).
I pump now.
I’m focused on length & girth simultaneously. Many members disagree with that, & suggest that you focus on 1 or the other. I’m finding that doing PE for girth & length works synergistically for me. Do I know for sure it works? No. But I keep close track of progress, & it appears to be true for me.
