Hey,
Thanks for the responses guys. I definitely never intend to do clamping again unless I strongly feel that this surgery has brought my member back from the dead 100%. Marinera, I am certainly interested in girth and have thought heavily about pumping. The problem is that pumping seems totally counter productive. I mean it seems like it would be the worst possible thing I could do because it opens veins, and I have had surgery to suture them shut. I figure you’re right in regards to the stretches because the surgeon had told me before the surgery that he could show me some stretches that would help prevent scar tissue buildup (which he never showed me because he thought that the surgery was not invasive enough to cause a significant change). He said that it would take a full 3 months to completely heal on the inside, so I figure I’ll start light around then (very light). It is just so damn twisted because I worked myself up to around 7x5 (almost), and I measured today at 6.2x4.5, so lame. I am 6’2 and fairly athletic and strong so this thing looks damn tiny on my frame.
Thank you DtWarren, I’ll definitely check out that site to see if anyone is in my shoes.
Damien, I clamped using a metal hose clamp and did it too tightly and for too long, I jelqued for 30 minutes at a time and didn’t do the long 3 second strokes that are recommended. As I said, I also occasionally left the clamp on lightly for hours while I was at work and would take my pants off later to find serious fluid build-up and sometimes a cold penis. I tried hanging heavy weight (like 5-10 pounds) without ever having tried weight before (althought I didn’t try this for more than a few seconds at a time). I’m not sure what else I did, but I only started seeing gains after I started doing a more easy going and consistent routine. Trust these guys on here and DO NOT push yourself. I promise you that the gains will not come any faster. This surgery cost 23K (covered by insurance, phew), and you don’t want to go through it. Take it slow, take it easy, consistency, quality over quantity. I saw that thread about “how long can you keep an erection”, and I thought about it but I really can’t remember. Unless I was extremely mentally stimulated, which generally only happened when watching porn after having not jerked off in a long time, I could hold it for 10 seconds maybe. Generally, however, as soon as I stopped touching it, it began to deflate. On top of that, it was always more reliable when I was doing it myself. When I was with a girl, she could do anything to it and it would just be a dead fucking wet noodle. It wouldn’t even move. I could stimulate it sometimes enough to get it inside her, and once inside (if I was on top) the arousal level would rise and I would get hard for her. Let me know if you have any other questions.
