Some questions about Clamping

Hi all

My friend is comig visiting next week and will stay for 14 days. This makes it hard for me to do jelqing without him finding out what I am doing, so I was thinking about trying some clamping the time he will stay here, since it’s a bit more discreet.
Although, never having tried this before I would like to ask some questions before I do something stupid :D

1. I have not been able to get a hold of the “Cable Clamps” here in China, but I guess everything that cuts of the blood will work, right? Would a rubberband work ? Any other ideas?

2. Since it’s my first time clamping, I’m going to start with 3x5 minute sesions (wouldnt want to risk my dick exploding), will this be enough for getting atleast some kind of results?

3. This has nothing to do with clamping but I would like to know anyway. Thoose of you that use Cocoa Butter, do you buy it in bottles (liquid form) or in little round “boxes” (I dont know what its called), the same kind vaselin often is stored in ?

Thank you

Photon, pal, to be honest with you, I’ve never clamped, but I think I read somewhere that rubberbands on your cock wouldn’t be a very good idea!

Yeah, it seems a little strange. If I only could get hold of one of thoose cable clamps. They are probably made here in China! Does anyone know how to say “cable clamp” in Chinese ?

Cable Clamps are made in China!

A rubber band will not work very well; they are too narrow and are more likely to damage blood vessels and lymphatic vessels if you made it tight enough to work.

A metal hose clamp (the type with a screw that you turn to tighten them) works well if you use enough wrapping to protect your penis. They are slow to get on and off compared to a cable clamp.

Clamping is a high danger exercise and can leave your dick looking a bit beaten up when you start, if you over do it.

If your friend is only there for 14 days, it might be a very good time to take a deconditioning break. That’s what I would do.

One of the main reasons the cable clamp is so good is it is quick to remove. If anything looks like it is going wrong you just pop the switch and it is off. Also, it is is close to the oval shape of the penis so fits better.

Your other questions:

2 x 5 min clamping sessions would do to start with. It’s safer to build up the number of sets before you begin building up the time.

Am I using the Cocoa Butter for cooking or jelqing? If it’s for jelqing, I would probably favour the more solid version; it will melt at body temperature without going as thin as the liquid. But it doesn’t really matter that much; both will work fine.

I would imagine the Chinese for Cable Clamp is ‘Cable Clamp’. You may have to work out how to say “for neatening up loose electrical cables” though. Better still, print a picture of them off from the internet and show it to the vendor.

In my opinion, it seems like clamping would be harder to hide than jelqing.

I agree,

better a decon-break or some little sessions of stretching.

Textile rubber band works very well, provided that you buy one that is at least 1/2 inch wide. I bought one yesterday after my pump broke a day before and did the first clamping session with that last evening. I bought a meter long strip (cost me some $0.6) and wrapped all of it around penis as if it were a clamp. Didi it’s job quite well. You have to add tension only to the first rounds of the rubber band. The open end of the rubber can just be put between the previous round - it doesn’t roll of.
Taking it off was fast as well. Took a few seconds.

Suggest cut half inch section of sturdy rubber gloves in place of a clamp and use it to jelq but only move it no more then 1 inch strokes.
