Manual To Pump Transition/Supplement

Hey Team Thunder!

Been a while since I checked in bye and a lurker for a while. Told myself that I was going to go full manual for the first year but two promotions later my time and energy are running thin. Ended up buying the Leluv pump with a gauge. Thanks to all of the contributors for the threads on pump information. It was extremely helpful in choosing product and size. If you’re thinking of getting a pump, check out all of the threads, they are extremely helpful.

Will be using the pump to supplement on days where I’m too tired to pull off manuals. Will still be keeping stretches, jelqs, horse 440s and some manual clamping. Looking to see who’s been successful in implementing their pump routine into a manual routine. From what I’ve read, many have been successful with using both. Have you found pumping to be less taxing when compared to manuals? Just looking for something to supplement into the routine to keep the gains coming (summer was very spotty with my routine due to traveling and burnout at work).
