How hard exactly am I supposed to clamp

It’s not as violent as you make it seem :D . Trying to do that with a cable clamp though would probably hurt (if it is the only constrictor). You need tension to be applied across the circumference of the penis, not primarily on the sides.

I am doing the OLF/OLR method right now and then it is even harder to keep the erection after a couple of days of 5 X 15 minutes repetitions so I continuously need to edge to keep the erection at about 100%. But after a couple of days break, it is sometimes even hard to get the erection down after a clamping sessions and sometimes I stay hard for 10 minutes or more (which is bit of a bugger when I am at work ;) ). Perhaps “Big Girtha” receives this status as well (perhaps more quickly) and that is the reason why the erection does not fade away?

I clamp semi-hard and mostly use two clamps during my sessions. That helps pretty much and I sometimes loose the clamp a bit to get more blood in and them clamp it back again. But I must stay rather focused on what I am doing and cannot run around and do other things at the same time.

THIS IS THE SECRET! THIS IS THE KEY!

I tried every kind of wrapping, clothes, socks, mouse pad wrapping, etc… None worked until I found my work out gloves, the material is like a mouse pad, but 3X times more tick. A good wrapping restrict 100% blood flow. But this is dangerous, never go more than 15 min. In my sessions I always edge (masturbate). Sometimes I relax a little. Example, in my 15min session, I edge for about 5min, than relax for 2, than edge for 5min…

Another secret is, I put the wrap when my dick is flaccid, than I clamp 1 or 2 notches using a medium cable clamp. So I stimulate my dick to a erection. With every little engorgement I tighten more the cable clamp and do some kegels to pump more blood. When I get a 110% erection the notches left in the cable clamp is 2 or 3. So I clamp tight.

I never put the cable clamp in my unit with a 100% erection because the hardness of my unit don’t permit the cable clamp to restrict blood flow. This is the motive I always start with my penis soft.

Just find a good wrapping material that allows maximum blood restriction, start clamping with a flaccid penis and edge! You don’t need two cable clamps if you wrap right. Try to clamp everyday, if you are a beginner do two sessions of 10min and work out to a routine of 3 sessions of 15min. I bet in one year you will gain at least 1”.

I hope I explained it. English is my secondary language, sorry for my errors…

I think there are two determining factors here, one is most certainly getting the wrap right. This is a hard technique to nail down because dicks are all so different. You just have to play with this to get the optimum length, thickness for the wrap. Wideness is not an issue as long as the wrap is wide enough to keep your skin from the teeth of the clamp, but there seems to be a bit of a learning curve getting the thickness right. My wrap is only 8” long, but 8” simply won’t work for everyone. You need it thick enough so that when your dick is rock hard, and the clamp is as tight as it will go, comfortably, blood does not escape.

The other thing is this whole deal about staying hard in the clamp. I know a lot of guys who have made amazing gains staying hard throughout the entire session. Drilla is a good example. Have you ever seen his dick? You can’t argue with his results, and if I remember correctly, he doesn’t even use wrap. I on the other hand find keeping an erection for the whole session tedious and unnecessary. For me the engorgement is all that counts, and because I have so much loose skin, I have to wrap. But I do not lose girth when my erection resides. In fact, as LV posted my dick too is not just “oftentimes,” but, Always bigger the last few minutes of the session, much thicker than it was in the beginning when it was rock hard. But then my flaccid girth is also thicker than my erect girth. My dick just thins out some when it is rock hard, all that loose skin is pulled tight against the shaft. I think this may vary from one dick to another. I haven’t looked at Drilla’s pics in years, but I seem to remember it being a very tight erection, with very little excess skin. But skin or no skin, the thing that makes clamping work, is letting blood in, but not letting it out. The clamp blocks outer veins, but allows inflow through inner arteries. Once properly clamped your dick can lose its erectness, but should NOT lose its engorgement. If it does, blood is getting back out past the clamp. And I honestly think in most cases this is a wrapping issue.

Funny, I didn’t realize Drilla’s pics were in his sig. I just looked at them. This man is a Dick with legs. He has an almost textbook perfect penis. He has very little shaft skin, and no excess scrotum skin. It is a very tight, clean erection. There is no way in hell I could ever clamp without wrap. Hell, I’m uncircumcised and I have more shaft skin than that. Guys, you can not base your clamping/wrapping technique on anyone’s dick but your own. You just have to play with it.

The wrap, that is, not your dicks. :leftie:

Or both. :D

I have the same issue, Big Girtha. I think it is because most of Drilla’s girth is natural, he gained below an inch in girth from clamping if I remember. I think the major girth gainers have girthier flaccid penises than erect.

So I read about the importance of wrapping here. So just tried it but decided to stay hard. I measured as soon as clamped and was slightly bigger than normal. After 5-6 minutes I re-measured whilst clamping and had expanded to a 1/4 of an inch more than normal. After about 12 minutes total went up ab it more than than, half way between 1/4 and a 1/2. Decided to see if I’d expand anymore so totaled at 20 minutes but no change and decided to stop because I felt I was going slightly numb. So I would guess about 15minutes like Drilla suggested would be right and clamping should work for me.

I just need to try and clamp as low as possible I guess because I have somewhat of a baseball effect going on(pre PE too) If I could thicken the sides at the base I could get pretty dam thick.

I just measured and my mid girth is 1/4 is an inch thicker than the base. Any tips on how to fix this?

No clue.. But I am working on that myself. I have one heck of a baseball bat. The two things I’ve been doing trying to correct this is:

1) during clamping, as I edge and get maximum expansion, I open the cable clamp by one notch letting the base expand a bit more. Then edge again for max expansion, open one more notch.. I’ll do this during the last 5 minutes of a 10 minute session.

2) I take my left hand, thumb and forefinger, over the base as tight against the pubic bone as I can - stretching from the glans with the right just to be sure my left is as far down as possible. Then I kegle-pump blood into the shaft and clamp tight with the left to hold the blood in and squeeze with the right just above the narrowest portion of the base shaft to trap blood into that area like a balloon. I squeeze down with the right to expand the isolated area.

Anyone have problems with ejaculating during clamp sessions?

I know that when I solve that dilemma, I will be girthy as a large knackwurst.

Has anyone over come that problem or had to deal with it?

Uh, do you mean you’re spontaneously ejaculating while clamped, even without masturbating? Because if you’re masturbating, well, just take a break when you’re getting close to orgasm, naturally :)

Do you mean you can’t stop yourself cumming when you edge? Just slow the stroke or stop till the feeling subsides.

By the way this is Jelqival with my new forum name.

Oh I read this the other day, didn’t really understand what you mean. Now I do, I will try it now Thanks.

Thanks for the reply guys,

Yeah, I edge and get to close to the PNR and oops! There it is!

Do you guys just stay far far away from the PNR? Or do you really come close to the edge, as in the name?

I thought that was the point, no?

But, ok, I’ll keep further from the edge.
