Sneaking up on my dick.

Hi guys,

Although a rank PE newbie, in my day job, I deal a lot with stretch reflexes, ligament creep and soft-tissue load/time responses.

It’s well know in science that there are many tissues in the body that handle and recover from high tensile or torsional loads when they’re applied quickly; not so well when applied slowly. This has been covered well here at Thunders before.

I’m also more than a little concerned about this “deal with the devil” bit in which the very act of doing PE makes it eventually harder to get anything out of doing PE. It’d be nice to have some way of having you PE cake and eating it, too; of having some way to making your response to PE efforts linear and diagonal as long as you do it, rather than cliff-shaped.

So, I hit upon the fairly obvious, I guess, idea of trying super slow stretches and so far, so good.

Basically, squatting, I get a good grip and stretch SD taking 45-60 seconds to get the fully stretched state and then hold for another 30-60 seconds.

This glacial motion seems to defeat the BC tug-back (a stretch reflex) and allows a greater, more comfortable stretch. If I really tune in, sometimes I can feel my dick fighting me a bit, but I just inhale deeply, exhale, wait 1 or 2 beats and am able to stretch past it. I’m getting the worked-out feeling sooner, less turtling and oddly don’t get the temporarily cold head thing after that I used to.

So, for what it’s worth. Your mileage may vary. Hopefully this isn’t posted in the wrong place. Mods, please move as necessary.

Also, using the search terms I could come up with, couldn’t find any discussions about super slow stretch already, which was surprising; you guys cover EVERYTHING! So, I’d very much appreciate if someone else were able to find other posts and would really appreciate if any others also found they got more work done with super slow stretches.

I find this rather intriguing. Normally I just grab the head of my dick and stretch him out rather quickly ( but hold the stretches for longer ) Which isn’t very smart, because you don’t just stretch to your toes by reaching as fast as possible you ease into the stretch ( why I haven’t thought of applying this method to my dick, I don’t quite know. Almost ashamed ) I am going to start doing my stretches this way and report back to this thread. I think it may also fit into “Cool Downs” if anyone does those anymore, the idea of cooling the tissues after a good stretch so they hold position longer. This just seems to fit well into the “Less is More” and “Gentle, Slow and Steady” theories of PE as well.

I also find this really interesting. I haven’t thought too much about my method of getting into the stretch - mostly just on the length of time I hold the full stretch. I’ll try to be more conscious of this and see where this goes. Please, keep us posted on your progress.

This is exactly the routine I use, I’m down at college so all I can do is kegel, jelq, and stretch. But I hop in the shower with the water hot; let my dick get warm and stretchy and then do slow stretches and jelqs. You can definitely feel your dick fight you, it almost automatically tries to pull back but after a while you learn to control that and stretch further. Then after each stretch I do what I call helicopter swings. Basically just spinning your dick around fast by holding the base and spinning. This drains blood into the whole penis and increases circulation. I never get turtling afterwards. I definitely recommend this to anyone who is serious about stretching. Slow stretches beat out fast ones any-day.

Thanks for your insight doingvoodoo!

Slow stretching seems to make a lot of sense, and seems like an obvious method to increase the effectiveness of the stretch (obvious only now that you’ve pointed it out!).

How cool would it be if we had spindles or GTO’s in our dicks? LOL! Penile Plyometrics!

I covered a similar thing here:firegoat - Dynamic Stretching.
and
firegoat - Length Gains
and lots of associated stuff in this thread: More thoughts on how growth occurs.
I know I’ve talked about it in other places; I just can’t remember where off-hand.

We’ll leave it in the Newbie Forum - it’s valuable information for everyone.

Awesome. Don’t know how I missed that. Thanks!

I was going to mention your name as I also remember you were talking about going in steps into a stretch so it could let you stretch farther.

Well, if FireGoat has talked about stretching slowly in a step-wise fashion, then I have to say he is (and has been) on to something.

After posting this stuff about super-slow stretching, I continued to experiment, and, I think, stumbled across the same thing FG had talked about:

I could stretch slowly to a resistance point (dick begins to fight back), then release the pull just slightly (maybe about a cm.) while inhaling, then exhale, wait a beat, and it was MUCH easier to go past the resistance point and sometimes even much further. I’m now doing maybe 3-4 of these little back off/breathing subcycles within each super slow.

It’s working great for me. Maybe it will for you guys, too.

Hopefully, FireGoat can share some more about this technique. I’m off to read everything he’s ever posted right now!

Be vewy vewy quiet, I’m hunting inches.

Hey Voodoo. I want to thank you for your slow stretching suggestion. I’ve been trying it for a few days now and I seem to be getting a much better stretch. One of the best things about it is that the feeling of slow stretching is kind of a turn on. It feels nice. This means that I finish my stretching with a very slight erection and my penis is quite elongated. No doubt that slight erection helps with the growth process. I stretch to the left and the right and I also do helicopter stretches but I think I get my best stretch on the outward stretches. I am paying special attention to those by lengthening the stretch from 60 seconds to 90 seconds. Here’s hoping this helps to speed up the growth process. 

Just wanted to report back to this thread, I had started doing stretches extremely slowly after I read this and after 5 days now my flaccid hang has already shown size of growth. I haven’t been doing any jelqing this week only stretching ( not even warming up! ) I definitely understand what you mean by the “resistance” point now. It takes me probably about 1 minute to get my dick fully stretched out now. It is such a light pull that it almost feels arousing sometimes. Good stuff voodoo thanks for the thread. Firegoat - thanks for the additional reads ( can’t get enough of it ) Good luck guys :D

So how does the slow stretching change the routine? Do you do less stretches now since you are taking about a minute and a half per stretch?

Also do you do the slow stretches in all directions and throughout or just once or twice and straight down?

A little more info in this reply I just gave in another thread: firegoat - Increasing stretching time
