Bought A Bathmate Any Advice?

Pulled the trigger and bought a bathmate.. any quick advice from fellow users that could be shared? Thanks

Use some kind of oil on the shaft, shave the base of the penis to get a better suction and try to start slow with low pressure.

Even though it’s used with warm water, still is good to warm up with a hot wrap, jelq and stretch prior to pumping And warm down.

I would avoid using oils with the Bathmate as there is a potential for a bad reaction with the rubber pump, plus it makes cleaning a big hassle.

My caution is be careful with how much pressure you use, because if you pump until no more water gets expelled, you will likely get red spots or discoloration from too much vacuum pressure. That is the main drawback with the BM. No pressure gauge.

Says 15 min daily on the site but seems like too much.. I’ll try 10min every other da hopefully I can get some results from this.

The BM is great as a warm-up tool.
Very useful in combination superset with jelqs, clamps etc.
Always pump up slowly and release slowly or you will get discoloration.

If you use it daily for some minutes in the shower you can maintain a good hang.

In itself it’s not a given that it gives gains. Start slow and increase over time. Do some manuals before and between BM sessions.

Shave the hair off your tummy where the base is going to sit. Hair will prevent you from getting a good seal. Then pump it up, max vacuum, right away. Pump it as hard as you can every thirty seconds to a minute, and keep going like that for thirty minutes or so. No, not really. Pump up gradually, and I’d start out with real mellow vacuum for the first five minutes. Then maybe pump up to high vacuum for another five minutes. That is a total of ten minutes, and at that point, maybe take the Bathmate off, jelq a couple times, give your wiener a once over visual inspection. If you feel like that’s enough, it probably is. If you think you can do another five or ten minutes, go ahead. If you feel pain, just stop. My first and only pumps I’ve owned were both Bathmates People seem freaked out that the Bathmate doesn’t have a gauge, but you cannot pump beyond whatever the max vacuum created by the rubber base will allow. Which is five or six hg if I remember right. I think five hg would be pretty high in an air pump, but with the density and non-compressibility of water, it’s less so. This is true of all the Bathmates except the “Extreme” models, which also have a pump bulb. Just exercise caution and good judgement your first few weeks.You’d really have to be overzealous with your vacuum level and duration of your session to injure yourself once you’ve got a few weeks experience under your belt.

Great info thanks everyone! I’m really eager for this thing to come to my doorstep so I can use it.

Make sure to do firegoat rolls after leaving the tube every time to avoid discoloration. All of my discoloration is due to the Bathmate. Also….return the Bathmate and get a cylinder with a brake bleeder pump. Way cheaper and safer (with the air pressure gauge) than the Bathmate.
