I only do about 10 minutes a day, but I do it intensely. I use Vaseline and alternate slow regular jelqs with girth blasters, basically you clamp the base with one hand and jelq with the other.
I also clamp 2 x 10 minutes each morning. I use the medium clamp, I think that is the one you are referring to, the smallest is too small even for 3.75eg. I had and still have a problem making it fit right. I take two clamps and tape them together with black electrical tape. Two work better than one for me. Then I take window weather stripping and wrap that with tape one the inside of the clamps. I do it tightly and use two strips on each side for a total of eight (four top, four bottom). I have found that more wrap to make it tighter interferes with the clamping and causes me to break the clamp. I have broken many. Putting some cushion on the actual clamp better transfers the pressure directly without distorting the clamp. I also use 3/4 ” grey foam pipe insulation as my wrap, it just pops on and pops off. Although I am considering buying an air clamp.
When I stretched, I always did it after I jelqed because I had a hard time getting as hard after I stretched.
Good luck.
Try the Futuro velcro wrist wrap available at Walgreens. It is very easily cut down to size, and makes a great under-clamp wrap. You can also double wrap with it to increase the pressure of your clamping routine. Do a search here, alot of guys use it. I buy the elbow wrap and cut it up to get two wraps.
