Non-newbie extender experience

No one else than Big Al seems to have read that record on the Guinness Record. Anyone has a copy of that book? I even doubt the Guinness Record lists that kind of records - how could verify it? I think it is just a scam.

Of all the members here, I would expect there to be more non-newbie extender experience than this. Where are you guys?

Yes it is the one of Betterman Dr. Bayard not Ballard actually, he had a certification on his room about guinness record with a seal and all that kind of shit, looked real, and also my dad was one of his patients before me, so I bet the old man thrust this doc enough to bring me to him, also you can read on Betterman that he made use of physiotherapy = PE, surgery and ADS to make his patient reach 10.62”

I have been wearing mine to work under semi-baggy jeans and it’s been going great, only fell off once *knock on wood* I work a pretty labor intensive job too (constantly bending down picking up parts and such). I wear it for two hours take a bathroom break, rip it off real quick and put it back on in an hour (can’t be running back and forth to the bathroom like crazy in a factory). It’s really not noticable either, the thing points straight down with virtually no bulge at all. Pretty awsome. Got to figure out a good days on/days off schedule though.

How long have you been wearing it and what kind of gains have you seen?

Day 6 I think, just bigger flacid hang so far. I am recording everything and will be eventually posting a thread with before and after pictures because I know this is going to work I am wearing it close to 12 hours a day showing a lofty ammount of PI.

I got one of the ebay knock-off Size-genetics, X4, etc extenders with the spring loaded gold bars and comfort strap that you use over foam ring. It seems like this is generally the kind of extender many of you use for hours a day.

But I feel like there is no way it is stretching my dick nearly enough to actually do anything. Are they supposed to only tug very lightly? I’m talking, it holds the dick out straight, but it’s not really “pulling” on it much to speak of. And on top of this, in order for the extender to not slip off, one has to cinch down the strap a certain amount; but when I have the strap cinched down my glans turns blue within about 20 minutes.

It seems like it would be an incredible pain in the ass to be taking this thing on and off all day for 4 hours. And considering how little I gained from 2+ hours of hanging a day. I just am amazed that people get results with these stretchers.

Does the amount of “tug” I describe sound like about the amount that you guys who get gains experience from their stretchers? And do you take the things on and off like 10 times a day or something?

I’m only guessing here but maybe the fact that it’s a knock-off is why you’re having so much trouble. Those who have ordered the product from the manufacturers, themselves, don’t seem to have any trouble. Just a thought.

There are a lot of members who seem to own lots of different extenders and swear that the ebay knockoffs (eg LeLuv) are just as good as their others. The quality of my extender is good. The only thing I see as there being a possibility of funtional difference is in the springs. Softer springs aren’t really more expensive than harder springs. But I wonder if the springs in my extender could possibly be softer than the springs in some extenders that work better. Thus my asking how much force other members feel from their extenders.

My glans turned blue a lot the first night, I guess it took a few days of me taking it off putting it on 6 or 7 times a day to learn how to really strap it correctly and build tolerance to the thing. Westsidetoni said If you work through the pain at first it will get better, and it already is for me. But nothing will kill your day more than not getting circulation to the head of your soldier, which leads me to my question of can you increase tension on your extender? I can feel my ligs stretching just from the bars without increasing tension, I know it. Maybe you need to increase the tension if your not feeling anything from the bars alone.

I don’t really seem to be able to increase the tension that much. It seems like when I have the bars at a short enough length to be able to get the device on, I then am not able to get stretched out with much tension. But if I use the next increment up length of bar (little extension piece), I’m am not able to then get the extender on, as my glans won’t quite reach far enough to cinch the strap around. Did you have trouble like this in the beginning?

The X4 has a two sided threaded bar with a knob in the middle. When you turn the knob, the threaded ends unscrew from their respective female “sockets” so that the bar lengthens to adjust the bar out up to an inch or more, thus increasing the tension. There are three engraved rings on each Bar just above the top threads. When the top ring is just covered, the tension is at 600 gr on my model. When the second ring is just covered, you are at 900 gr, etc.

This apparently is a major difference between an X4 and the less expensive knockoffs. I can mount my extender at a comfortable bar length and proceed to further adjust the length to reach my desired tension with my penis already mounted in the cradle. Perhaps that is why X4 charges more.

DT you said not to increase tension until atleast week six, but to be honest my friend I am getting gains erect/flacid stretched (rockin this baby 12 hrs a day + jelq) and I can wear it at the tension I started off with for three hours like nothing. Can increasing tension slowly be beneficial what are we talking here?

Also,
Do you feel any sort of ‘pump’ in your PC muscle when it is relaxed, the only way I can describe it is the opposite of flexing (thus I have dubbed it the anti-flex).

Not exactly sure what you mean by not increasing the tension for six weeks. In an earlier post I mentioned that after mounting the extender, I increase the tension to 6 gr and keep it at that tension by periodically adjusting the bars to keep the first ring just covered. I did this for over six weeks before I increased the tension beyond 6 gr. Is this what you are referring to?

Also not clear on what your anti-flex is. When I am in the extender, I can kegel and feel the head of my penis pull the mounting cradle down slightly. I can’t recall any other pumping sensation.

You are correct, I mis-remembered.

As far as the Anti-flex I’ll just have to wait and see.
