Why pumping?

It doesn’t stay plump or anything though once out. Maybe for like 5 mins. Once I have showered it is back to normal hence I’m worried.
Will keep going.
I think most would agree with me; pumping are the slowest gains. I can attest to gaining 1.25 inches in length, and some nice girth in about 18 months by stretching (or traction). It was about 4 months before I saw any gains, then the gains continued for about 9 months. I kept stretching for a few more months, but I didn’t get anymore gains. You can see some of my prior posts if you are interested in how I did it.
I didn’t get much flaccid gain from the traction, so that is why I am doing the pumping. I have been doing it for a year now, and I am just now starting to notice that I am holding on to the flaccid gains I get from pumping till the next day, and maybe a little longer.
I have an LA pump also, but whoever you talked to had no business telling you that you should have gains by now. We are all different, and I think pumping is the most personalized as far as what works for you. There is nothing to worry about. If you want faster gains consider something other than pumping. Traction is a medically documented way to add size. I was hanging 2.6 pounds 4 to 6 hours a day to get my gains, but it took 4 months to build up to where I could hang that much for that long ( I took 20 minute breaks about every hour).
Or, if you really like pumping then enjoy it, and see where it takes you. I have noticed a little extra length from my year of pumping (1/8 to 1/4 inch) and a little more girth, and finally some nice flaccid hang, but I still lose the flaccid gain after a day or two without pumping, but it keeps lasting longer just like the experienced pumpers say it will.
