Clamping question

I’m fairly new to this and have a few questions about clamping. I just bought some cable clamps and have been doing a dumbed down version of clamping. Meaning I break up the suggested 10 minutes into smaller increments so as to not have my penis explode. I’ve pushed it at (with no adverse side effects) but the problem is, my “pushing it” is about 5min. I’ve gone a little further to experiment a bit but I had splotchy dark spots over the head that went away with some kegels and jelqs to get the blood flowing again. It’s my guess that these splotchy dark spots aren’t good. I’m looking for a good girth exercise since I’m BPEL 6.5” and my EG is about a mm or two under 5. I know that’s around normal, even a bit over the average but I’d like to change that. Anyway with clamping I’m getting dark, very dark in my opinion (but that’s questionable seeing as though I’ve only just started) and then getting splotchy spots. I don’t go cold or numb, or anything like that, am I to expect the spots? How dark is too dark. Is there anything I could be doing better? Different? Any suggestions on that or softening up a right handed curve?

Dark is normal. It goes away with fresh blood flow. For example, wrap a thread around your fingertip for a minute or two, then remove itand watch what happens.

You may find that your dick gets a little darker when not exercising, and this is probably from increased blood flow.

Going slow is a good idea to build up to 10 minutes.

For good girth gains, make sure you put a second clamp on after the first, or when you feel the pressure subsiding, and you have tightened the first clamp as far as you can.

A second? That would go just under the head? Makes sense, trap more blood in the shaft to inscrease girth. Ha go figure. Alright well at least now I know where my wal-mart hides the cable clamps. How would I know when the too dark ABORT ABORT time comes? Other than blood spurting out of my urethra? Haven’t gone cold yet and don’t plan on it.

The first clamp goes at the base as close as you can push it into your pelvis. The second clamp goes on right above it, and pushes more blood all the way up the shaft towards the head. If you want to do head clamping, that is something completely different. You can also do clamped bends, but wait until you are very used to all of the sensations, and are conditioned to being able to clamp for 10 minutes.

Oh well I was thinking that by having one clamp at the base and one below the head you’d trap more in the shaft between the clamps. The double clamp would deffinately decrease my time by increasing pressure that much. It sucks that there is no place you can buy just one clamp. To get the medium one I had to buy a small and a large with it.

Would the clamp bends decrease the curve?
