I'm not seeing any gains using the DLD blaster?

I’ve been trying this exercise over 2 weeks. I read it from the peforum. But I haven’t seen any gains yet. Not even in flaccid. I’m doing everything right for sure. I followed step by step. I also used it while hanging with 10 pounds. I’ve been exercising for about a year. But have been more consistent since early september. I think my ligs are the strongest in the forum. Are you seeing gains from the DLD blaster?

I havent noticed any real growth yet, but DLD blasters have been beating up my ligs real well - it feels like a bruised tendon or muscle pain. I think this is a sign of progress - a more thorough and obvious tearing than I get just hanging.

I’m still unsure whether I’m doing it correctly, though; I can kegel pretty well but I don’t know if I’m doing the reverse kegels properly. I feel like I’m just flexing my abs or something. Do you guys hold your breath on the reverse? Like taking a big dump?

That’s exactly how I do a reverse keggle. Holding my breathing, making a muscle on your abs, and push hard like your taking a dump. And when you do the reverse keggle you have to pull you dick with all your strength. Then loosen a little bit of tension doing the regular keggle. But I don’t get that sore feeling on my ligs.

mike2002, not everyone will benefit from every exercise. 2 weeks may be too early to tell with some. I know many people have seen immediate results from the DLD Blaster but this in no way means it will be the same across the board. Give your self more time and be patient. I know in time you will see results.

DLD, I’ve been doing the 100 warm up pulls toward my stomach for 2 seconds each that lasts about 5 minutes. Then I do a DLD blaster straight down, up, left, and right for 5 minutes on each direction; totaling 20 minutes. After that I do 5 minute V stretches. Once the V stretches are done I do 5 minutes of JAI stretches. I do this twice a day in the morning and before I go to sleep. I’ve been doing this for 2 weeks (every day non stop). Does this routine sound too much or just about right for getting good length gains.

Mike I am a bit confused. When you are stretching doing the DLD blasters are you using one of the stretches I suggested? (ie. the Dual Fulcrum or the “A” Stretch) It is very important that these or a stretch similar to these is used.

DLD, I am just pulling my prick out really hard when I do a reverse keggle and loosen the tension a bit when I do a regular keggle. I am not doing those other stretches you mentioned, because I don’t know how to do it.

A Stretch

V-stretch you know. Any other supported stretch where you are using a support to increase the stretch. UTL etc

I think it’s important to concentrate on the feel of the stretch and not get so caught up with the mechanics of kegeling and reverse kegeling, time spans, rep counts, etc. that you neglect to mentally connect with what is going on. Get in the groove, go with it, and your body will make subtle adjustments to allow you to stretch more effectively.

I’ve found, and I think Luvdadus mentioned it too, that I get the best stretch when I relax after doing the reverse kegel. So, I’ve adjusted my Blasters to include a pause before kegeling again. During this time I focus on relaxing my body as much as possible, with only my arm muscles tensed. Thoroughly relaxing is more difficult than it sounds, but I’m improving.

Experienced bodybuilders will attest how important the mind-body connection is to work a muscle group correctly. Take bent barbell rows for example. By concentrating on pulling back with the elbows the lats get much of the work, otherwise the biceps are more involved. The movement of the bar is the same either way. It is the mental aspect and focus that makes the difference. Same thing with manual stretches - especially since the PC and other muscles like to work against our efforts.

BTW, I agree with DLD that 2 weeks isn’t enough time to tell if the Blasters are working.

With A-stretch do i pull upwards at the base of my penis with my right forearm and pull straight out with my left arm? Thanks for the advice hobby, I’ll see how it goes with more weeks.
