Punching my hand while stretching

This is my first thread.

I don’t know if this subject was mentioned, but here we go.

Yesterday,when I was stretching. I did something that gos like this:

Stretch with one hand and punching lightly with the other the side of the stretching hand from the inside. (more force to the outside)

Its like hitting it softly and repeatedly. Like soft hammering.

Did anyone try this?
Is it not good? or good?

I can feel the tension at the base of my penis.

What do you think? :)

I’m not able to picture this?

Sounds like it may give to much impact stress. It’s sort of like bouncing when you stretch your muscles. You don’t want to do that. Just my opinion.

Stretching your cock ligs is like stretching any other body part. Long slow stretches with no punching. Like when stretching your hamstrings, you are not supposed to bounce or anything, just hold a nice long stretch.

I did it once and didn’t want to do it again. Thought it was dangerous so thats why I made the thread, to make sure.

Its like when you stretch (lets say downwards) and you come with the other hand and hit the side of you hand downwards also. Like tugging while stretching. For extra stress.

Yeah, probably not the best of ideas, rrrockyyy. For the reasons gprent and I stated. To easy to tear something when doing that.

Thanks guys, I’ll drop it then.

Easy come, easy go, or Nothing comes the easy Way, or…whatever. :)

I occasionally try a variation of this, about once a week. I really feel like it helps me somehow, although I could be wrong. This has to be very controlled as not to promote injury.

I have used my foot, legs, etc to assist and increasing the tension of the stretch.

Why does everybody think that “bouncing” in reference to muscle stretching is bad? Stretching with movement (or dynamic stretching) mimics the activity the body does naturally. Your muscles move in motion, why would you not stretch in motion?

Funny.

jm,

I actually read up on that in a book about stretching years ago. The old style stretching of hamstrings was to “hang and bounce”, right? According to the book, inside the tendons there are tiny receptors that sense the tension inside the tendons. If there is a successive increase, the receptors signal “Everything under control”. If the increase in tension is sudden and forceful, the receptors signal “Too much, too quick” and the tendons TENSE UP from that! The idea is that a stiffer tendon will not get accidentally pulled out of shape (as easily) and so they go all stiff and immovable. That means you are “bouncing” off your muscles, and the next step is ripping muscle tissue.

I suppose this is a good idea (from an evolutionary point of view), since muscle damage heals quicker than tendons do.

As for dynamic stretching - within the range of “Everything under control”, I imagine that this is slower and more successive increase / decrease, more like a sinus curve rather than a heart curve. In reality, that is likely to be what happens to the tunica when you jelq. I find that more likable than sharp, sudden clamping, which is more like the bouncing mentioned.
