Thick Girth = Hard to get/maintain Erections?

I’ve never had an issue with erections. I think backing off will certainly help you.

Masturbating twice a day for 3 days will leave my EQ in tatters. So you can decide if it is affecting anything that is going on with you but I know what my experience says.

I’m around your age, and if I tried to masturbate twice a day, everyday, my penis would probably fall off. I’m surprised you can PE or get anywhere hard for the ladies, under those conditions.

I wouldn’t have thought that my masturbation would make such a difference. I wonder if it affects my PE to get longer erection lengths too.

I’ll have to consider reducing my masturbations. I admit it’s been some time since I’ve been 100% rock hard when masturbating lately too.

Great advice shared here excessive use of porn can definitely hamper your goal to return to wall impaling erections. It has been my struggle and without a doubt in my case and perhaps in yours it is something to consider.

Yes, follow Titleist’s recommendation. Think you’ll find that limiting masturbation (and especially ejaculation) to twice or fewer times per week will build desire, hardness and even satisfaction. Best to stay away from the porn, or limit it to something done very infrequently. You can have sex more often, getting your partner off as many times as she desires — just don’t ejaculate. Try it, and you’ll never want to go back.

I think this may solve your “lost gains” thread mystery too. After a couple weeks of less ejaculations, try measuring again and that 1/4” might come back in the form of EQ.

These are interesting theories. I hope they have some help towards solving my concerns. Of course resisting the sexual urge to wank off is hard though :P

I think you should also introduce some aerobic exercise for circulation purposes.

Yes, heavy weight training is really good and one can argue that it is enough (it is my main physical activity today), but the benefits of aerobic exercise for circulation and erections (and other things) come almost instantly.

It can be 20min of running, 1 day on, 1 off. Moderate or high intensity (that means 20min with high heart rate - you can do that on a treadmill). It shouldn’t affect your lean mass gains that much and it will be great for erections.

I did some HIIT in the past, I’m meant to be doing this now as part of my current routine. But yeah, I’m not motivated enough and don’t enjoy it, so I keep forgetting to realise that I have to do this on the day that comes when I say I’ll do it.

I don’t know how much it affects erections or the blood circulation. I want it to burn some fat and not hurt the muscle gaining of course.

How it directly affects erections I’m not sure, or how strongly it can affect them.

I think it is worth a try. It doesn’t have to be HIT. You could just walk on a treadmill with a good speed. The point is to have a moderate heart rate for around 15-20min.

You can get an elevated heart rate from just lifting weights, but it lasts a only few minutes. I think the 20min walking/running provides a different type of cardiovascular stimulus. I do both.

Jay,
I think all of the advice here will help you immensely with regard to your current situation.

.. But I have something to add that perhaps may be part of the issue. This recently happened to me twice with two different chicks so it may have merit. How hot was the last girl you were with?
I have some regular angels I play with these days that always make my lil’ feller stand up and beg.
I have zero problem getting and maintaining a high performance love tool for them. We sometimes go for hours.. plundering all three holes until I literally have to stop cause she’s completely done.
A couple months ago I get a mid-week-late-night booty call from a chick I know that’s almost 20 years younger than me and looks very sexy with clothes on. Other guys I know dig her as well, and she has a killer smile that makes you really want the all-access pass. So I head over to her place.. soon as the door closes behind me the top comes off and the gals are firm and yummy.. I’ve got her naked within minutes but as we’re heading to the bedroom I catch that her ass is seriously sloppy.. she clearly knows how to dress to hide this.. but now I’m suddenly not ready to rock anymore.. I keep her on her back and hit the lunch box with my face and she not only tastes amazing but is squirtin’ all over the place.. hot as hell! Right? .. but I can’t get the image of that sloppy ass outta my head! So now I’m kneeling next to her.. totally limp! and after she catches her breath from the first batch of O’s she washed my face with, I bend her knees so her feet are flat on the bed and reach in with my right hand hoping that watching the spray is gonna get me hard enough to get him in there to play.. She’s so bleepin’ wet.. I know it’s gonna be amazing.. Still.. no boner! Now of course I realize my brain is totally fucking me, but I’m giving her this never ending hand job and she’s writhing, moaning, and squirting at least a foot in the air.. My recalcitrant prick finally gets half-hard from this show and suddenly he wants to blow! Noooooooooooo!
So as I’m mentally ready to choke myself at this point I slide myself up the bed and tell her I’m gonna come in her mouth. She’s still coming and writhing but she grabs him and drinks him down anyway.
I’ve rarely been embarrassed in my life.. this episode definitely makes the top ten.

We talked about me taking her ass before this.. now I’m pretty sure it won’t ever happen.
I couldn’t even get hard for that yummy va-jay-jay.

… So long story short.. maybe it’s not you.

I tried the lil’ feller out again after her and all’s well as usual.
Thank God!

.. until it happened again with another deceptive dresser!
That story for another time.

Good luck bro, you’ll fix this.

You will see differences on the first or second day you abstain

Not sure I got that. After I stopped masturbating for about a week I swore I didn’t get any erections that time, not deliberate ones anyway. Only for PE. But not by any other provocation.

And when I did go back to masturbating last week, I didn’t feel my dick was more hard. I didn’t measure it to see if it had any increase - as I’ve lost my erect length gains for some reason a year or so ago and back PEing again.

Well the girls I’ve been with are of varying hotness, lately it’s just in gang bangs. It’s hard to get erect there due to people around me, lack of intimacy, position of my body, etc. But hot or not my penis erection isn’t dictated by their physical beauty.

Sorry that happened to you. I guess you just gotta be honest with some girls when it’s not working and give them the “it’s not you, it’s something else, maybe not even me” story.
