Dry Jelq

Does anybody else dry Jelq?

I do because it is easyer as i live with my parents etc.

What does everyone think?

I have never tried it. I do however do some dry bend work occasionally and it seems to work great. How does dry jelqing actually work? Doesn’t it get brush burn from the slide or am I picturing it wrong.

I tried it for a week or so, I liked it alot actually, it feels like you are really working it alot harder than with lube. There were two problems however, one was that my hands were dead by about the 100th stroke and i got a little bit of friction burn from either going to fast or too hard. I have heard alot of people making sizable gains from this and some base their whole routine on this. Of course i jumped right into it, like regular jelquing it takes some time before you can fully master it. What i did since i am cut is, i only used one hand to keep a solid grip and I started at the base of the shaft with all the skin gathered there and brought it up to my head like a normal jelq.

How to Jelq

Like most things, the name can be misleading. With lubed jelq, one is sliding his hand over his skin. When I dry jelq, I take the skin along for a ride…

For me, there is no comparison. Dry jelqing allows me to put MUCH MORE pressure and force on the tunica and blood chambers, and I get much better results from it. To approach the pressure levels I’m able to achieve by dry jelqing with lube, it puts too much pressure on my veins, causing pain.

I have an extensive explanation of my dry jelq in my routine thread at peforum, for anyone who is interested-

RB,

Just switched over to dry jelq as well because I felt like I was working the skin too much when lubed. So far so good, I’m actually feeling internal soreness.

Sorry about that. Here’s a cut and paste of my technique-

“This is my best attempt at explaining what I do, as relayed in a private message to someone else recently:

I have big wide hands. When I started, I had a small penis that was hard to get ahold of to do traditional jelqing moves, plus no access to a quality lube I could use easily in the work place. What I did was this:

1- Pretend like your holding an invisible sandwich with both hands, getting ready to take a bite. Notice how your fingers and thumbs are facing each other, one forming a C and the other a reverse C.

2- Keep this position, but rotate your hands so your thumbs are now on top.

3- Using just your thumbs and first two fingers (pointer and middle), grab your dick from both sides mid-shaft like it’s a mini sandwich, and squeeze.

4- Now, slide your skin under your fingers down your shaft as far as you can go. You may have to adjust your initial finger positioning to allow you to get fully to the base, or even do the lower part then the upper until your skin becomes more resiliant, a few days or so. (I can now dry jelq my entire erect 8” shaft in one move). Make sure that the intial spot on your skin where your fingers made contact stay under your fingers for the entire stroke.

5- When you’ve slid as far down as possible, squeeze your fingers together, then slowly slide them as far towards your head as possible. Repeat.

I did this for the first month or so, then went with a water based sex lube. I went back to dry jelqing, as I feel it allows me to get a better workout on the erectile tissues and doesn’t put as much pressure on the veins. Good Luck.

While my fingertips may touch, it is not like a traditional circle ok grip jelq. Also, I rarely jelqed with one hand squeezing the base while the other jelqed. When I did this (with lube), to get enough pressure to feel like I was doing any good made my veins hurt and swell.

I feel dry jelqing like I do allows me to put the pressure where it’s needed, deep in the erectile tissues. I concentrate on making sure I can feel the blood expanding my tissues and moving forward to my head, which swells toward the end of each stroke. When it does, I know the blood is moving. Hope this helped.”

Thanks

has this worked for you? what was your initial size and do you let go or just go back and forth with yours hands

thanks

Yes i can get much more pressure using dry jelq and the skin dosent strech as much. Another reason for doing this is because i dont sexualy stimulate my glands as much.

good luck dudes!

I started at 5” epbl, and gained 3” in about 7 months by primarily dry jelqing, but my gains have kinda come to a screeching halt from 8 months on.

I apply the pressure during the upstroke, on the downstroke, just returning the skin and fingers to their original positions…

Insightful and inspirational. Doing a search really pays off, because I was just about to ask the “how exactly to dry-jelq” myself. I still have a few question, maybe you can help me out:

• Do you apply any presure to the urethera? I understand (and what I’ve personally experienced) an OK grip will inevitably create such pressure. I’d found an underhand OK grip to be (feel) more efficient for me personally - I can start closer to the bone and apply more pressure. I still am concerned about the forementioned pressure to urethera and wether the C grip is a way to avoid it.
• How the do you maintain a constrant erection level? I have a tendency to overstimulate myself - I’ll start with a light erection and in a dozen of strokes I’d reach full (or near-full) erection. Should I stop and wait for erection to fade or continue?

As far as jelq goes, I strickly dry jelq. If I do 50 mid to top then I do 50 mid to bottom. Like everyone said, much more pressure.

RB, How do you stop your thumbs from hurting?
Or is it the way I’m performing the jelq.
PM-ing me would help?

Thanks.

Here is where I get confused.

Posts like these, mentioning the amount of pressure, make me think jelqs are being done nearly if not fully erect. Then I hear other people talking about jelqing at 40, 50, 60%.

Could anyone explain the dissonance? Are different people just doing them differently?
