Occlusion training - might shed some light

I remember reading up on this ages ago during my study/training - occlusion training has shown to be an effective method for gaining muscle size. There are different theories, along the lines of inhibiting oxygen to stimulate fast twitch muscles, and helping the muscle pool the growth hormones released in the exercised muscle - I presume the latter might have something to do with PE.

Anyway there have been numerous studies showing positive results for gaining muscle size by putting elastic bands at the top of the muscle, and on this forum putting a ring or elastic band on your dick has been condoned by many - is there a link?

I did a quick search on this forum and found no threads on this, so apologies if this has been mentioned already. If not - please, fellow researchers, prove me wrong or accept this theory.

There are threads about that actually. Try searching for posts with the word ‘Kaatsu’ if you want ot find related threads.

I just read some kaatsu stuff from yahoo and I fail to see how that could apply to PE, unless you condone hanging while clamped etc.

Did not realise it had a different name - but still didn’t find threads about kaatsu.

‘During the study, test subjects saw some pretty startling results:
Lactate increased
Growth Hormone increased
Norepinephrine increased
-1 increased
Noradrenaline increased
Myostatin decreased
One rep maximum strength increased
Isometric strength & torque increased
Isokinetic strength & torque increased
Muscular endurance increased
Cross-sectional area of the muscle increased
Slow twitch fibers changed into Fast twitch fibers’

I was hoping someone with more knowledge could highlight which of these would apply to PE. I’m guessing just Growth Hormone, but even if it is just that, that’s enough to positively effect PE?

I’ve semi incorporated this into my workout by just having an elastic band at the base while I do stretches and light jelqing. It feels nice being engorged for so long anyway I will carry on doing this and note any results. I’ve gained 0.1-0.3 inches in girth since I started PE, and have struggled to see any more improvements. Is there anyone who has consistently gained.

Has this come any further in use in the past year? In bodybuilding it seems to be taking hold. Obviously the penis is different in that it isn’t a muscle, but its still about blood flow and restriction whether its a muscle or tissue right? I was considering trying this but don’t know how long you can keep it restricted, or in what state you should restrict? I.e., flaccid, 60% erect, etc.

Never heard of clamping?

No
