Rubber Bands for Fast Girth

Rubber Bands for Fast Girth

This is my first post and I wanted to start by saying that I haven’t searched thunders for other threads on this topic because I wanted to know what people currently think.

A little about myself: I did PE for a year without much dedication and then quit (a girlfriend got in the way) and I started again with some determination two months ago. The gains I’ve seen are good, about 1/4 in length SFL. I haven’t measured girth. With girth, I used an empty roll of toilet paper to measure change. The gains are from stretching, wet jelqing, and rubber bands without any particular plan (which I now have). I decided to focus on girth so I’m clamping and I want to start using rubber bands, again(I just bought cable clamps which I’m excited about).

So, back to the thread topic. With an erection, I took several rubber bands, folded them over twice, stretched them open and placed them around the base of my penis. I had good results, but to be fair I’m not sure exactly what caused my gains. I think that rubber bands will act similarly as the cable clamps with some differences. I suppose the rubber bands function like a cock ring, but there are some major differences that lend to PE. I’m writing about everyday office supply rubber bands, by the way. Here is my pro/con list:
Pro
1. Several rubber bands tightened around the base of one’s penis can build a lot of pressure.
2. The bands stretch under pressure. Obvious, but here’s the kicker. After being stretched to fit around the base of the penis, the bands tighten. They will then stretch from the internal pressure caused by kegels. This allows more blood to be kegeled in than with clamping.
3. Rubber bands are discreet. Leave them anywhere.
4. Requires no wrapping for comfortable use.
5. Rubber bands might be more useful for men whose girth is too small to be seriously affected by a fully tightened clamp.
Con
1. Rubber bands are cheap, but not invincible.
2. It is hard to regulate pressure accurately.
3. It is slow to put on and remove.
4. Rubber bands are more narrow then a clamp, which requires that the PEer uses several bands.

So, let me know what you think. I would like criticism and suggestions. Thank you.

If you’re suggesting that the rubber bands can give results like clamping, then, I don’t think so. Clamping produces a very high pressure, which can’t be produced by the bands. So, I don’t think they can give girth gains.

And I think it’s early to start using cable clamp, as you have been on your routine for 2 months only. If you’re after girth, then try to incorporate manual girth exercises gradually after being well conditioned.

The problem with most rubber bands is they are thin and cause too much pinching force to be applied to the veins. I have found a nice 1/2" wide band that is used to band together broccoli stalks in your grocery store and therefore I call them broccoli bands. They are also just 1.25" in diameter, so you don’t have to double them over. I do use 2 bands at a time to create just the right clamping pressure for me. I use them just about every day when I pump.

Here is a thread that contains a lot more info on these broccoli bands:

Here is where I bought them:

Why not try cutting up a bicycle tire?

Bicycle tires are built to be tough (though are still plenty flexible), are easier to obtain than broccoli bands, come in a wide variety of penis sized circumferences and can be cut to any length you desire.


Size is little more than a controllable perception without an accurate means of measurement.

Pegain: I thought it may be too early but I’ve started clamping anyway. I’m being impatient.. I’ve started very slow and haven’t had any issues in the last two weeks since starting clamping. What manual exercises do you suggest? Do you mean more jelqing? Also, the rubber bands are in addition to jelqing and clamping. You would be surprised with the amount of pressure that is attainable, try them.

The broccoli band is a good idea that I haven’t tried. I’ll give it a go. The bicycle tire seems like an ok idea, but I’m still a little confused. What sizes what be suitable. Midget sized bicycle tires? That and I think it is easier (and cheaper) for me to obtain broccoli than tires.

Thanks for the input.

Sometimes I use a makeshift cock ring a few hours after PE to maintain a good flaccid hang and to stop me from turtling. I use an elasticated hair tie, it works great!


Stats, pre PE: BPEL 6.1" MSEG 4.5"

Ultimate Goal: BPEL 7.6" MSEG 6"

That's 1.5" both ways. Wish me luck! :D

This is how I see it:

Broccoli bands (positive):
- The tension tends to be less.
- More attractive
- Less conspicuous

(negative)
- Harder to find a place to buy unused.
- Need to buy them bulk if you find them online.
- Can be found on broccoli but it’s a) stretched and b) you need to buy the broccoli.
- Difficult to find in the ‘perfect’ size or size definitions and ranges.

Bicycle tires (positive):
- Easier to find unused.
- Can easily distinguish sizes apart because it’s labeled clearly on the package.
- The rubber is more robust to elemental conditions.
- Can be easily cut to the size that fits perfectly

(negative)
- The tension tends to be more.
- Not as attractive
- More conspicuous (you’re cutting up a bike tire for heaven’s sake)

I just gave the web site where to buy broccoli bands and they are cheap, so that is no problem. You can adjust the tension by using 1, 2 or 3 bands at the same time. The size issue can be a problem for small girth guys.

I just cut a nice band from one of my punctured bicycle tubes. The tube size is 26X1.5/1.75. Looks like it can work nicely and I will give it a try tomorrow. To adjust the tension, the same thing applies, just use 1, 2 or 3 bands at the same time.

Will let you know how the tube trials go.

Are the brocoli bands used instead of clamps or just as a form of girth ADS?

Broccoli bands are probably more like elastic cock rings. They can hold erections or be used to hold girth gains from pumping. They are not as powerful as clamps can be, but I am not a fan of heavy clamp force either.

Bycicle tire is difficult to put out if you have an erection.

Can anyone elaborate on how to prepare bicycle tire?

Should note that it’s a bicycle tube that we’re working with rather than the tire (treads).. that will alleviate some confusion right there.

I’ve also made a diagram.

Nice, the only frame of reference I have for broccoli bands are the used ones and I find it they don’t provide that much tension (though, yes, I can apply more). I will have to order some from that site next month and test them out.

My tubing is 26 x 1.9/2.125 (Kenda USA bicycle tires) and it fits almost too snug around a 14 cm (5.5 in) BG person.

OK, I tried my inner tube ring this morning and it worked great. I only used one ring because the diameter of the inner tube ring is only 1” compared to 1.25” on the broccoli bands. My base girth is 6” and the single 1” inner tube ring provided just the right pressure for me to maintain a huge hardon. As I mentioned before, I cut my inner tube ring from a 26X1.5/1.75 inner tube and I cut the width to 1/2”, the same as the broccoli bands. This is a very good idea. :up: :up:

Here is a comparison pic showing the 1.25” broccoli band and the 1” inner tube ring.
