nigret, jelq4;
I do have some fluid build-up. I haven’t ever tried to get massive under pressure because I alternate PE exercises with sets of 6 - 8 minutes of pumping, usually three of these and three PE sets. These exercises do massage out lymphatic fluids that have accumulated.
What’s interesting to me is that I get something pretty much equal to a very good, normal erection in the tube; but the fluid is most apparent when the erection subsides a bit. This engorgement remains for several hours, sort of a heavy, “spongy” feel, jelq4. In my first, say, 4 - 5 months of pumping that would gradually go away and I’d go back to my normal flaccid size which then was not very impressive :-(
However, at about my 8th month of pumping and PE my flaccid size began to change considerably and now, after a year and a half, some degree of increased flaccid thickness and length (every day is a little different) is always there whether I’ve PE’d or not. This is terrific for me since I’ve always been more interested in flaccid gain than erect gain but I got erect gain in spite of myself. I don’t care if I ever get another millimeter of girth or length erect, I just want to get to where Phat9 and Fowler (Fowfer??) are flaccid.
It seems to me that Modemmer has a faster shot at getting increases because he started out larger than most of us did. On the other hand, I don’t know if PE works that way since a lot of smaller guys have made very significant gains and pretty quickly.
