heat treatment

First of all I want to say heck yeah to PE
all of its benefits. Just measured last night
and found out at rock hard erection I
now hit 7”nbel. I was going nuts.

But on to the actual post:

For some of the “end of the workout”
stretches, i used to just sit in the shower
under the stream and stretch. But I started
doing something different. Some have said
they use a cup of hot water. I had done
it before but never in the shower. (when out
of the shower I had done it like a fishing lure,
half in half out, for fear of spilliing on the carpet)
But in the shower i took a plastic cup and
filled it from the shower head. (The water
loses a lot of heat from that 2 1/2 to 3 foot
fall. ) But I got the water as hot as I could
stand it and then I would slap the johnson in
there. In doing this I would make sure the
cup made a seal to my crotch. This way
the water heated the all the ligs and the
hard worked member. I changed the water
every minute with new hot water. In this changing
time i would stretch the fool out of friend.
Also while stretching i would take the free hand
and push and rub on the ligs getting stretched.
Most of time i put a lot of pressure on the middle
of the ligs. This kind of works like v-stretch on the actual
center of the ligs. Then after some AI stretches and
whatever i feel like i put a new cup of water on. I do this
like 5 times. I always seems to get rid of red spots and
leave my ligs tired when i do this.

( for some reason rice socks burn. They feel they get
too hot in certain places. But I can get this cup thing
scalding and it feels like the heat evens out)

Does it take ya’ll writing a post to see how scattered brained
you are? It seems i have to correct the grammar
on these just like a school paper.

Hey all,

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can use that will hold the heat for a constant 5 minutes without being in the tub. I don’t have one, I only have a shower. I mean like maybe heating pads, water bottles, or that rice sock thing I have heard about or does the water soak into the skin to help with elasticity? I would actually like to use something that will hold the heat for at least 20-30 minutes so I can hold it against my ligs during my entire tension stretch or hanging session when I get a BIB.

How about Icy Hot or some other deep penetrating sports cream?

Thanks..and sorry again if this is an old topic…I’m still learning here guys so all your help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Hey hardeight,

Remember you are trying to apply heat, not cook a lobster. Don’t get too carried away with the temperature, warm, not scalding.

seven5search,

Sounds like you need a heating pad if you want heat to last that long, or possibly two rice socks so that you can rotate them out when one cools,

The first thing I would *NOT* do is use a sports cream. That stuff can move around as it warms up and get onto some sensitive nerves and drive you crazy. There’s a post on here somewhere about somebody putting Ben Gay in a guy’s jock right before a track meet. :flame:

I use an electric heating pad, and it works fine.

Hey Tex,

Thanks for the comment. I know that it can cause some serious discomfort if it got on or around any of the major nerve endings. I saw what it could do when put into a guys underwear one year at church youth camp. And another year some guy was picking on me and all the older guys in my youth group pinned him down and rubbed it all over his crotch. So I really know what it does to that area, but how about just a small amount at the top base as close to the pelvic area as possible. I would think that someone has thought of it and tried it before.

But anyways thanks for the heating pad idea though, I may have to run out and get one. Do you use it while stretching or hanging?

I use a cold/hot packet (purchased at any drug store) and put in a wet, thick sock. It usually stays hot for 10+ minutes. Hope this helps.

Hey Maximus,

Great Idea…never used one, ever. Are they reusable hot? I have never bought one before.

Thanks for the suggestion…

Seven,

The secret is “moist” heat. The easiest way to do this is to get a heating pad and a hand towel. Wet the towel with warm water and fold it around the heating pad. Put the heating pad on medium or high. You will get good moist heat and you can place it directly on the ligs and even mold it a bit.

Happy hangin

Hey Jelqtoid,

Thanks for the suggestion. I thought that the moisture might be beneficial. But the thought of combining it with a heating pad is kinda scary, I would think that there would be a risk of electrocution combining the two.

It sounds totally logical — combining the two, but I wonder if it’s worth the risk.

Hanging and pumping. I like jelqtoid’s comment about moist heat too and will try it.

In the last month I have not bothered to do a hot-wrap before my workouts, is that a bad idea?

Gains-wise, would I be better of doing a H-Wrap?

Seven5search,

You could try a hot water bottle with a moist towel wrapped around it.

Peppy69,

Now thats a great idea. I think I will try that. Thanks for the reply.

Glad to be a help. It’s something that I did for quite sometime before switching to using a cup of warm water.

Seven,

The heating pad that I use is a conventional one that is completely enclosed in plastic. On the cover it says “wet proof”. I inspect it periodically to look for any breaks in the plastic but there have never been any. I bought the thing for $10. I even sent one overseas to BigJ and I think that he is using it regularly. The wet towel that I use is not sopping wet. I wring it out so that it is not dripping. It works great.

Take care
