Video of Wet Jelq-That's a lot of pressure

Hello all-

I’ve been a lurker for a long time, but just this year I’ve started P.E. With regularity. I was great about doing it for about 4-5 months at the start of this year, but stopped as I: A) Broke up with a girlfriend B) Moved and C) Consequently had to stop taking 45 min showers (I PE’d when I took a regular showers).

When I measured after 5 months, I saw no difference. I wasn’t too depressed about it. I’ve read enough to know that gains come differently for people.

I have started up again with a non-shower method of manual stretches (just the newbie routine) using oil. I went to check out the videos for a refresher, and just to make sure I was doing everything correctly.

To my surprise, the video (Wet Jelq) has the guy using a lot of pressure! I think this is why I didn’t gain the first time around. I will be resuming my exercises with more pressure this time, but I have some concerns.

How tightly should I be gripping my shaft? What are the indicators that I am gripping too lightly or too tightly? (I have never gripped my penis tightly). And last, any tips for remaining ‘focused’ in your grip? I.e., making sure your grip stays tight over the long periods of time you are jelqing.

Thanks for any help, and if I need to be referred to anyone’s log or thread for a read, I will take the time to do so.

I almost imagine that some tool might be great to use.. Something like a pair of scissors with padded interiors instead of shears.

It is commonly advocated around here to not jelq too hard, mainly because for beginners and units that aren’t properly conditioned it could potentially lead to injury. But with a gradual stimulus increase, PI awareness and unit familiarization there is nothing wrong with doing a firm grip jelq. And it when done correctly, has very good potential.

The key with that, is knowing how to jelq properly. Takes more technique than it looks.

Thanks for the response, MakeHerGoCrazy. It seems to me to start out with more of a firm grip than I am used to and dial it from there, according to the PI’s I receive. This whole process is just like driving on a road.. Even though you are going straight, you gotta course correct the wheel all the time.

Use the smallest amount of force and grip as you can.

Light loosen grip you won’t feel a thing and tight grip you will feel pain. The problem is that a warmed up penis can take a beating without feeling any pain.

The consensus throughout the forum is to grip with enough force to feel the blood moving inside the chambers. Erection level is the most important factor here.
