Difference between OK Grip and V Grip Jelq (with pics!)

Hi there, TG here. With a quick PSA to the Jelqing crowd. With pictures.

If you’re familiar with the jelq you realize that you have to hold an OK grip with one hand at the bottom of your penis to trap blood. How you execute the jelq can be with a second OK grip going upwards OR the V grip. The picture of how that looks is below. The featured picture is not of my penis.

The reason for this thread is that there really is no contrasting pictures I’ve found that explain the OK and V-grips adequately. This question is constantly asked and no one has offered a visual aid so…here goes nothing…or a 6 in One…one or the other. *chuckles* I posted this in response to this guy’s question which was more than fair.

We can compare and contrast the thoughts on the two grips here but we start with some basic visual renditions by Yours Truly. I’m sure that there are more variations but I’m just giving a starting point to help some guys understand better.

Thanks TG I appreciate it as I was just wondering about this after reading the other post.

My dear fellow…..I really wish there are more people like you in the world who is more than willing to share knowledge pro bono.

Thanks as always.

I just want men to be empowered the way I am now to choose exactly what penis they want. I was where everyone else has started. It would be unfair to hoard the knowledge for money. I can’t stomach it, myself.

Hi TG,

Reading your post, I noticed that you mentioned using two grips when you jelq, one jelqing hand and one holding a manual clamp at the base. The videos and instructions for the wet jelq, however, describe and show a single grip until the changing of the hands. Is it now no longer recommended to jelq in this fashion and to now jelq with a manual clamp at the base instead? If you have the time could you also mention differences in effectiveness and safety between these two styles?

Thank you

TG

Your pics are useful> Isee you grip between the thumb and first finger? Have I got that right?

I have been using a variant using the gap between second and third finger in an inverted fashion (V at the top) and squeezing the two fingers from below using the other hand. Puts most of the pressure on the CCs (sides). Both hands help pull the squeeze to the front. Seems to work ok but I am no jelqing expert. Has anyone else tried this?

Yep - that’s the way I do it austfred and it works extremely well too!

Can I jelq with great gains with just one hand?

Honestly, I do not know this for certain. It may be possible but to do it one handed would likely require a very strong grip. Strong enough that it could cause you significant pain or injury to a nerve bundle.

I would say, if you are limited in the PE you can do and only have one hand, devices are likely a better choice. A jelq device or jar lifter may do what you need. If you only have one hand you can use.

Wait, whao, hold on.

You’re suppose to hold a grip one hand whilst doing the actual jelq with another?

Yes…have you checked the video for the wet jelq?

A milking motion requires one hand at the base of the udder and one hand moving down its length.

Yes: the video shows a grip being at the base only to start the next stroke as the current one is ending — but that isn’t necessarily two grips, it’s just one carrying on after the other.
What I was probably thinking of was the Jelq Squeeze, which literally has a grip with one hand whilst the second does the entire stroke from start to finish.

Thoughtfulgold, with v grip and having other hand at the base, pulling straight down, does it stress ligs? Can we expect a little length gain out of this movement?

Recently I have switched to a strong V grip alternating pressure point every 2 strokes. For example I do 1 stroke each hand applying most pressure to the sides and then one stroke each hand applying the pressure top to bottom. Each stroke takes 7-8 seconds. I have found this leaves me feeling much more worked in less time. If anyone else does this let me know as I’m trying to decide whether to start recommending it to people. It works for me but id like to see some others have success with it before I regularly mention it.

I am sure it would stress ligaments but it would likely be too much pressure. Because your V-grip hand is in motion I would not be pulling downward on your OK grip hand. Otherwise you could just be doing a stretch instead, which does this by design.
