Clamping Beneficial for Length Gains?

Could this be true, seeing as it may work and weaken the tunica tissue when you clamp, so if you clamp first and then do your length routine it may help?

Could anyone help out by commenting on weather this may be plausible or true?

Thanks

It gave me 1/2 inch length in a month while doing clamping only. Which reminds me, I need to start clamping again. :)

It’s possible, but on the other hand clamping might cause the tunica to strengthen. As far as I know this is something that’s not been tested and so it’s really impossible to say.

I’d imagine that the tunica is much stronger along its length than it is laterally, so any lateral force that might serve to strengthen it would probably be very detrimental to length gains. However that’s just speculation.

A lot of people do both length and girth work at the same time, but it seems to me that they make slower length gains then those who focus solely on length work (I could be wrong but it just seems that way to me).

One of the first things I learned when I first started PE was that girth work hindered length gains and that you should work on length before you start girth work. Where this idea originated is unclear (or at least I don’t know where it came from) it’s just something that’s been passed down through the ranks, and was, at the time that I started, just accepted without question. I’m not sure if that should make it true, or if it’s just a myth, but I’m inclined to believe it since the idea’s been around for so long without being disproved.

Hopefully if someone takes issue with the above it might spark a valuable discussion.

I believe clamping has helped me. I wrote a thread about how I rotate the clamps.

1. Clamp with 2 clamps for 3-5 minutes.
2. Leave bottom clamp on and move top clamp to the base for 3-5 minutes (leap frog).
3. If there is room, repeat.

I think this gives a good stretch to the base and puts pressure on the most part of the shaft
