Pre-Stretching Tunica to allow more Girth Expansion

The way I understand it, the tunica is made up of two layers of long, parallel fibers, with the two layers at 90 degrees to each other, essentially like a hashtag: #
One layer is aligned with the length of the penis. This layer is in tension when you perform stretches, hang, or wear an extender.
The other layer, being perpendicular, is aligned with the circumference of the penis, and is under tension when clamping, doing erect squeezes, and pumping.

To maximize expansion of the tunica, you need to stretch both layers of fibers. Bundled stretches stretch both layers at the same time due to the rotation combined with the stretch.
I myself alternate stretching both layers. My PE consists of stretches followed by jelqs, followed by erect squeezes. All done under hot water in the shower.

This is probably on point.
The distinction with the layers is that the longitudinal(“length”) layer is atop the circular(“girth”) layer.

This has implications on how to attack the layers.

Very good point.

What do you think the best way to “attack” is?
-first target the outer layer?
-first target the inner layer?

Would more efficient myofascial unlocking be accomplished using a variable speed vibrating bullet with a contact surface highly similar to a fingertip? I was thinking, with how it is described, the vibration could be quite efficient in this goal. And a cheap bullet toy can be had for just a few dollars on Adam and Eve.

Couldn’t you make the argument then you need to jelq at 100% in order to stretch/expand the limiting layer.

Jelqing at 100% is not advised because it is very easy to cause an injury.

Clamping or manual squeezes at 100% on the other hand, stretch both layers.

I do flacid stretches first to target the longitudinal layer, and then jelqs and manual squeezes to target both at the same time.

I think lot’s of exercises including jelqs somewhat target both. Even stretches affect the girth layer.
The layers are in parts also interwoven and connected.
100% jelqs just feel to me very ineffective.

Besides.. Jelqs cause of their short duration impact on any part of the tunica don’t seem to be very tunica targeted.
Frequency of expansion has an impact on the tunica but constant expansion without rest seems to be much more effective.
The tunica has the ability to very easily snap back to square one if the tension is not kept for x amount of time.

Length layer has more ability to expand in the flaccid state. Some can stretch further flaccid than erect. BPFSL > BPEL .
Girth layer practically expands best in the erect state. It’s almost impossible to stretch the girth layer in flaccid state beyond it’s erect size.

Dickerschwanz/richardfitswell,

If one were to assume that a tough tunica may be a culprit, do you think stretching on non-PE days would be beneficial in order to limit the tunica’s ability to retract to it’s original state?

I have been upping my bundled stretches a bit and notice more expansion the day after, but want to make sure I am not inadvertently stressing the tissue to the point where it will toughen back up.

Bumping this thread. I have experienced what is being explained here and it seems to be consistent. It makes sense.

The Op is right about the outer layer restricting inner layer expansion while stretched to its full length during natural erection, via pumping or clamping

More than pre-stretching the outer layer to its extended length we can use methods to restrict it from being tensioned during the expansion workout in the first place.

Restricted length pumping and clamping deny the outer layer from being stretched to its full length and therefore allows much more room for the inner layer to expand. As for the radial expansion of the cavernous spaces, the sinusoids, and the smooth muscle this makes an environment otherwise impossible.

You can realistically extend the outer layer maximum of 5-6 mm with a perfect setup.
But you can restrict it from extending 10 -15 mm without any problems.

It is a massive difference in how much the inner layer can expand just because of it.
With such a setup there is no need to use some of the extreme methods mentioned in this thread.

Reading this made me picture a slow squash jelq done with the glans being pushed into a hand braced against a wall.

If I’m understanding this right, the small bit of slack the pressing palm adds to the longitudinal layer should free up the lattitudinal layer for a bit more expansion.

Or just compressed between free hands expanding the most out of it. Physical exercise though.

Could this be achieved by using a smaller tube than my base girth? For example, the 2” tube vs the 2,25”, the latter is the one wich makes it possible to expand the outer layer at it’s best. Should I be using the 2” tube with lower pressures in order to not hurt my base? Or would it be better if I used the 2,25” tube with something stuffed inside?

Putting a cushion of some kind inside the tube you can adjust the length during the pumping.
Roll a sock if you can’t make a fitting rubbery cushion.
Best is if the used cushion will form a cup shape, pushing not as much on the tip of the penis but on the cigar shape ends of the CC’s.

Try it with your fist. Let the glans dip inside a bit and press the CC ‘s while jelqing against.

Sounds like the 2 ” cylinder being too narrow for this.
For an example me having 2.15” tube, it is normally packed 6cm at the base.
With the restricting cushion on the distal end it is packed at least of 15 cm in length.
