Does EQ affect girth?

As I mentioned briefly in my introduction, on top of girth concerns I’ve had issues with inconsistent EQ- especially during masturbating and PE.

There have been a few times where I was less anxious about it and my girth seemed better, even if it was by a small shot.

I was wondering; are there many gains to be made in simply maximizing health with regards to EQ? Given that my dick is long (which seems to be a fairly static indicator of dick size) but quite thin, I was wondering if part of the issue may rest in EQ rather than ‘absolute size’.

Any thoughts?

Girth is the first place I notice a drop in EQ. One of the best things for a drop in EQ is getting plenty of rest. Diet is a close second.

Pelvic floor muscles strength and relaxation. Kegels.

+ fitness espacially circulatory. and strong legs.

Aetius , why are you squeezing the glands once you reach an erection and then jelqing harder during your workout?

Short answer: yes.

I agree with this one million percent. If I find I am clenching my bc muscle I am noticeably less girthy. I would say at least 1/4” and my glans is not completely full. when I relax my bc muscle, I get much more expansion girth-wise and my glans is full, firm and shiny. I also notice this with my flaccid. If I am completely relaxed it is much thicker and longer.

So yes.

True.
The BC muscle clench often happens in a chronic way with bad masturbation habits like too fast and same position.
Took me some time to correct that. I guess I was running around for some years with a constantly clenched BC muscle.

Meanwhile I can Balloon my dick with a short bc kegel followed by an instant IC muscle kegel + some sort of reverse kegel.

What helps is consciouss training of the pelvic floor muscles in different situations..erect..flaccid and espacially stretched.
Stretching with different intensitys and conciously avoiding the pelvic floor to tense up. Or also conciously kegeling and relaxing to a stretch.

I think the worst advice regarding kegels still alive in the PE communtiy is to kegel while beeing around shopping or in the train. IS the same like doing bizeps curls while brushing teeth.

Yeah. I agree with all of that. It took me at least 3 months to train and be able to not hold a constant kegel while edging or messing around. I’m still working on it but I have it down for the most part.

I mainly only kegel while doing pe for an extra blood pump. All other circumstances I try to relax or reverse kegel. Since I began this my eq has improved by at least 20% and so has my erection angle.

For anyone who thinks this may be their issue with eq, my suggestion is to try to reverse kegel while standing or kneeling with an erection. That is what worked for me anyway. I noticed an immediate inflation of my glans and cs. My whole dick actually. I found it much easier to work on this in an upright position. Once I mastered it standing or kneeling I began to work on it seated and on my back.

Thanks everybody. Later today I’m going to try to see if a total muscle relaxation improves things at all. I’ll post here if I see any difference with it.

With regards to these different kind of kegels, I just did some looking up about it; would I be correct that the BC/PC muscle is the traditional ‘clench’ kegel muscle, and the IC is the (er, for lack of a better description) the ‘pooping’ muscle?

BC is the muscle for thr CS and could be consdiered clench muscle.
IC muscle is for the CC ‘s . Its back part is also connected to the anus.
Bot simultaniously create a rigid full errection.
PC is more about the prostata and bladder.

When done for targeting the dick you want to focus them contracting right at the base(imagined out to the glans)
If not used to you will involuntary contract the anus too ..so dont do it too hard lol.

Kegeling is abroad tem about contracting and relaxing the whole pelvic floor.

The notion that the pc muscle needs to be trained for PE purposes makes no sense and I think is mostly missused for the BC muscle.
They are all in a way interconnected though.

An anatomcial diagramm shows it

A reverse kegel is bascily stretching your pelvic floor out. Its more of a push motion from the belly down.
It has an relaxing effect as it is reversing the tension.
In a way it can engage the IC muscle espacially when done in an intense way.

Optimally you would clench the pelvic floor and then go over into a reverse kegel which if then released would hopefullý bring you into a balanced relaxed state.

Optimally you will develope a strong balanced pelvic floor that you can relax and engage by will.

Needs time to get aware of it…

Thanks Dickerschwanz- you’ve been really helpful with your advice and info on this and other threads!

This is a bit of a difficult thing, because it feels like there’s only one voluntary muscle down there. I guess I’ll be able to feel the distinction with more practice?

I’m taking your point about ‘from the belly down’; trying to make a downward pressure along with the abdomen creates a different feeling of pressure than the anal muscle alone. Am I getting close?

In any case, I was trying earlier today to see if relaxing the pelvic floor would have an effect on the erection. It’s weird- I suppose I clench the muscle without even being aware of it. Doing so for a bit pumps blood in, but I notice that the dick contracts. I’m going to see about working on pelvic relaxation.

If I were to guess, the change was probably less than 0.1’ in girth and no change at the base (which seems to stay the same size regardless whether I’m erect or flaccid). Nonetheless I’m going to do my best to stay aware of the pelvic floor.

I’ll try some more tomorrow. If I see any changes or make developments, I’ll be sure to post them here.

Cheers!

Yes like one big web at first. I can after many years trying and research “wave” individual muscles back and forth ;) as they can be engaged back/forth right/left.
Its not only about training the muscles but about getting the mind brain body connection. This takes some time so dont get frustrated as it can only grow so much a day/week..
But its not important to do any tricks or whatever at first. KISS concept :P

Look at anatomical diagrams and try to engage others by mind focus / imagination.
But for now just relaxing them is more important Check during day and train yourself to relax. No harsh movement just easing into it.

Also during masturbation/sex try to not clench the musclesbut rather a slight reverse kegel.
This might give even less erection at first as sometimes we engage the bc muscle to push more blood in but its a bad habit for a normal erection. An erection is mostly a total relaxation where no conciouss involvement is needed.(like beeing a teenager).
Thats also why many come too fast as they are too much using their “clench muscles” uncontrolled. Most kegel advice is actually bad advice creating more problems then leaving it alone. Its also why nightly boners are often stronger as we are not in the way thinking ;)

Another thing to try: Stretch your dick slowly and keep aware of how your pelvic floor reacts to the stretch. It probably will clench automaticly..then try to relax it or ease the stretch a bit. Its a fun game. If you cans tretch to BPFSL in every direction without a contraction you win.

Reverse:
Yes getting close. Belly down into the root of the dick. You can try differentiating between the push back into the tailbone(dont shit yourself) and right into the dick. At the beginning the stomach muscles are often involved as is the anal spincter. After some time you will get focused on the dick without much anal movement at all.

Dont worry if you seem to miss the feeling or control over individual muscles they just got tired and try again next day. But reverse kegel should almost always work.
