Pumping and Heart Rate

Been at this game awhile, but am new to pumping. While lying there in the tube, the heart rate of course is very low. Does it make sense to try and elevate the heart rate while pumping? We’re going for maximum expansion, so why not speed up the pump!

Anyone ever try this to see if it lead to greater expansion?

Elevating the heart rate should shrink your penis, I guess.

Why would pumping more blood through your veins shrink your penis??

It depends where this blood is going to? If you run, your blood goes to your muscles, and your penis shrinks (well, this is a conjecture actually, since I can’t remember the last time I did a run :) ).

The real question is.
Do you have enough blood in your body to go to all your muscles/organs/brain and a fully expanded penis at the same time?

And running with a pump attached may not be pleasant.
Marinera is right on this one.

The usual supplements and /or a SMALL dose of Viagra might help the flow of blood to the penis during pumping.

I read somewhere that standing, rather than sitting when in the tube was recommended to increase blood flow.

This may not be true- when you stand, your body needs more blood in your legs, leaving less blood available for the penis (which is why you hear a lot of people saying that can’t get as hard or even lose erections when standing)

Yeah, I don’t know either. I can stay rock hard while standing (if with the right person), but I get kind of lazy when I’m pumping and prefer to sit on the edge of the couch or even lay down. Or sometimes I’ll do the “Chartham massage” during the pumping session.
