And it may be doing it and gaining nothing for my efforts. Westla90069, please correct me if I am wrong. I don’t want to lead anyone astray. All I can say is that I also enjoy doing it in a flaccid state! :)
You can absolutely do kegels in any state — erect or flaccid. When erect you can feel the “flex” more distinctly in your cock, but since the penis has no muscle fiber, you’re getting almost the same benefit flaccid or erect by contracting, and learning to control, the BC muscle that you kegel with.
Something to try when erect: focus your kegel so that you feel it swell the tip of your dick. With a little practice, you’ll find that you can sort of flex your cock, and direct more blood into the head, getting it all fat and shiny. When I’m solo sexing, I stop the stroking every minute or two and do several of these full-cock kegels, contracting my BC to try and make my dick as hard as I possibly can. I hold that for at least several seconds, relax, and do it again. I carefully jelq in between kegels to get more blood into the cock, and keep trying to get the unit as massive as I can, sometimes doing a squeeze around the base, relaxing, kegeling, and then squeezing again to make a nice big stiffy.
After doing that for a while during a masturbation session, I find my orgasms are really intense. The kegels seem to prime the pump, and when I do spew, I have a sensation of the cum flying out in a long series of strong contractions. My orgasms are much more pleasurable since I’ve been kegeling. I remember years ago being able to whack off into a sock while lying next to my sleeping wife. I can’t do that any more. She’d wake up and think I’m having a seizure.
After you practice that kind of kegel while erect for a while, you’ll find that you can do the same thing while flaccid. Concentrate each kegel so that you feel the tip of your dick swell a little. It’s also a good way to make sure you’re doing what you’re calling a “penis kegel,” instead of an “anus kegel.” I know what you mean, by the way. Westla may know what the difference is anatomically, but those descriptors describe what I feel. A kegel can be felt more in the sphincter, or more up towards the penis.
