Major shrinkage from strenuous exercise

Who else gets this? I have only asked 2 mates, one said he did one said he didn’t. I know for sure I do big time. If I am skipping really fast, lifting weighst etc and just pushing myself to the limit my cock shrinks something shocking. Even smaller then when its cold I think, it just gets very small. Maybe because blood is being circulated to other areas where its needed? I dunno. It’s not really a problem just wondering if most guys get this.

I think you have hit the nail on the head, the penis doesn’t need to have blood in it to the extent that your oxygen depleted muscles do, it should be short term and yes I have experienced it but feel it gets better with PE.

Don’t think there is much you can do about it but good luck anyway.

I’m experiencing the exact same thing. After I’ve been stretching or clamping, my unit becomes smaller than my normal flaccid size. It feels very uncomfortable. I’m getting so paranoid that I’m starting to think I destroy cells and my unit is actually shrinking…

It’s totally normal. It’s just like you say. Blood goes where it’s needed and during exercise, your muscles need vast quantities of oxygenated blood and your cock doesn’t. Just your basic supply and demand equation.

Yeh, it’s not really something I want to ‘fix’, just wondering if other guys got it too. Its kind of funny feeling awesome with your muscles pumping, then feeling a bit dejected about your tiny unit :) . But yes it is definently temporary and not a problem, but even that it pisses me off kind of tells me I’m becoming a bit obsessed which is not good. But so long as its normal thats ok.

Oh and JES extender I was not talking about a strenuous P.E program, but more hard exercise like rugby or a weights circuit or whatever.

Has anyone else noticed that this also happens when they are nervous or stressed? Back in my pre-PE days my dick used to become a little stump in my pants (accompanied by rock hard balls) when I had to give a public speech or something, or when it was cold. Not good. I’m glad PE has helped with this though, the flaccid hangs better.

When I go see the Doctor, forget about it. Very embarrassing. Oh yeah, Doctors stress me out. :)

@oratum

Why would you want a visible flacid in your pants when you give a public speech :-)

I would rather not

JJ, I don’t know about Oratum, but I wouldn’t mind it, look at it this way, at least you get the attention of the crowd as you make your way to the podium

I am a serious weightlifter. It’s kinda funny. I do my 400 Lbs/180 kg bench press for 5 times and all people in the gym stare at me with a “WOW, this guy is strong” look. After these sets my dick really shrivles up.

So I don’t want to ruin my image by taking a shower in the gym after workout and guys looking at me with a “LOL what a turtle dick, its true what they say: Big body = small dick” look.

That is why I always take my post workout showers at home.

Haha, anything to preserve your rep eh ;)

jj65, it was visible, that’s the whole point. Un-shrunken, the penis generally hangs down and doesn’t stick out. Shrunken, it sticks out. If it had shrunk totally back in, that would have probably been better…as long as it came back out again.

Yes - This happens to me too, however I find that since P.E if I can give it a few strong yet descrete shakes I soon hang well again.

Oratom, I can picture it now…

HAHA! It really made me laugh, because I’ve got the exact same problem. After doing sit-ups or leg lifts, my flaccid size goes from 4 to about 1.5 inches! It’s a very uncomfortable feeling, and stepping into the shower with that chopped off spaghetti-piece aint a powerful attendence.

My unit also despise water, warm or cold - it doesn’t matter!
And like Oratom said as well, when I get nervous, and my adrenaline is pumping, my unit shrinks about 50%.

Yep, me too. I think it is indeed a natural response. Especially when the adrenaline’s pumping (as in, nervous, fearful, etc), I think my undercarriage simply retracts because it’s nature’s way of pulling it out of harms way - plus of course in natural terms the blood is more useful elsewhere, as in for supplying muscles for the natural fight-or-flight response.

Good job my local gym has a sauna lol! Soon gets it back to looking less like an acorn :up:
