I wonder about doing firegoat rolls after pumping. I do intend to do them, when/if I start pumping again, because I am hoping to avoid discoloration (from what I’ve seen on the forums removal of discoloration seems to be far from guaranteed).
What I wonder is, when you firegoat roll after a pumping session, to what extent is this fluid removal exercise you’re doing decreasing your gains? Couldn’t really say for sure, maybe none, but it seems that you are applying external pressure to drive fluid out of the tissues, fluid that would have otherwise been there for a time, applying an expansive pressure to tissue. It seemed to me, that when I did firegoat rolls after pumping, I sort of seemed to press most of the size gain right out of my unit (relative to what it would usually be if I just left it plump after).
Now I’m not certain of that, because when I started doing the rolls I had also begun pumping more lightly, so perhaps it was going to deflate that much anyway after the session, and not stay huge all day, as it had done before.
I suppose the thing I’m wondering is, what do you guys think about the question, “would condom pumping, and/or pumping with fire goat rolls after, be likely to result in less gains than just plain pumping?”. I do see people on here talking about the benefits of keeping the unit in a larger state for a prolonged period of time.
And in the case of condom pumping, the idea seems to be that the condom applies pressure to the external tissues, while letting the CC’s expand, but I find it hard to imaging that compressing (or at least limiting the expansion of) the tissues surrounding the CC’s doesn’t effect the expansion of the CC’s. To say nothing of the possibility that expansion of the tissue surrounding the CCs may yield it’s own temporary, or perhaps even permanent gains.
