Method to PREVENT clamping discoloration

So far working really well. Its allowing me to clamp longer and harder than usual, with no discoloration and just some minor spotting.

I am working on a 14 day cycle and then will take a week off and see what the results are. But as far as the title of the thread, this has definitely prevented the discoloration that I would without a doubt get at this clamping pressure.

This method has saved me. Before I started wrapping, I would ALWAYS get spotting. No matter how lightly I clamped or how little time (5 mins) i would still get the spotting. Now, little to no spotting, and I can clamp a whole 15 minutes when I want to.

I was skeptical about this method at first simply because you would not be able to see the spotting occur should it happen. So I took it really easy at first, saw the success and ran with it. I’m on week 3 with this method and I (and my unit) feel great! Amazing really.

So, thank you!

Great to hear it!

I too find that I can use far more useful times and pressures with this method. Without it I start to get not only discoloration, but actual rashes that breakout from the damaged surface blood vessels. Its been really great for me too, glad to hear it is for you also.

I really think this is a major breakthough for guys with either sensitive skin or wishing to avoid darkening, maybe with time it will get noticed by others.

I really feel that the elastic force of the ACE is really what does the trick, and I don’t think a lesser constrictor would work as well, but I havent’ tested lesser constrictors like a condom yet.

Update; its working great with possible gains showing up, but I’ll confirm that later.

I was contacted by pm to give a more detailed instruction, so here it is.

HOW TO DO IT

Take an Ace bandage, mine is about 2.5 inches wide, but more narrow would work fine and maybe better.

I start with an erection if possible. Just remember the more erect you are, the less tightening you will get as you clamp. So, keep that in mind and adjust tightness as you see fit.

I start by wrapping at the base a couple times, then wind my way up. At first I wrapped to just under the glans to allow for more glans expansion, but I got a little worried at the pressure being generated at the glans, so now I wrap the glans too. Experiment with both methods and decide what you prefer.

So, I wrap all the way up to the glans, and back down to the base. Then I wrap my Thera-P wrap around the base, this holds it in place. You could probably skip this part and just clamp over the Ace, it will hold it in place and the Ace acts as a wrap.

I usually leave a bit of the tip of the glans exposed to be able to check color, which is a good idea.

There you go, that’s how you do it. The rest is how long to clamp and how many sets, but that has been dealt with ad nauseum in many other threads. I will say that I find that at first, if you are doing multiple sets, you should unwrap, helicopter your dick and then re-wrap. This is important to check the little guy out to make sure you are doing no damage.

Later after you are pretty confident on the results, you could probably just unclamp, leave the wrap on, helicopter it for a few minutes to flush in new blood and oxygen, reclamp and do your next set.

You might find after a few times that your Ace is way too long. I cut mine down after a few uses. You want enough bandage to constrict the surface blood vessels, but not so much to prevent the tunica from expanding. Experiment and report back here.

Good luck!

Great idea! Still having problems with spots and discolouring, so I´ll try this next time.

Hopefully this works.

Bumping this thread because it’s very useful. :) I’ve got a question. Are firegoat rolls between sets equal, better or worse than helicopters? Or even doing them both is a good idea?

I like to do them both, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. It seems the fg rolls are great for the superficial tissue, and the helicopters are great for the deeper tissues also.

UPDATE; This method does work very well.

Glad to hear it. :) How much did you gain since you’ve started using it?

The thread is titled, ” Method to PREVENT clamping discoloration (maybe) ” and I reported that “This method does work very well.” By that I meant that it prevents discoloration.

I find (personally) that I do best with daily clamping, 2-3 sets work best for me for expansion, but my EQ starts to drop drastically if I continue for too long. However, if I take days off, I seem to lose the gains…so I’m still trying to solve that puzzle.

But I can say it works great to prevent discoloration, especially if you need to work at higher pressures to see gains.

So you didn’t get any discoloration, but you didn’t get any permanent girth gains either?

What I found was that after a few weeks, my skin and blood vessels conditioned enough that I could clamp without wrap. I clamped unwrapped for a couple weeks and cycled back to water pumping.

As far as girth gains, not cemented yet.

But if you wrap it in a bandage, don’t you stop or limit the swelling. And isn’t that what clamping is all about — encouraging swelling and getting a rock-hard dick for a period? Sorry guys, but I’m a tad confused. Help please.

It does a little, put when you do high pressure clamping, the internal pressure in the CC far exceeds the force of the bandage. What the bandage does is compress the surface blood vessels and greatly limits their expansion.

So it does slightly limit the expansion of the tunica, but really not much. If you were doing low pressure clamping it certainly will greatly limit the effect of that.

OK, I’ll give it a go. Thanks.
