Manual Stretching Comment/Question

[stevie7inch]

Hey everybody,

When I do a manual stretch, and my thumb and forefinger make an OK sign like in jelqing, when I put it below the helmet/glans and pull, I get a full pull on my ligs and THIS is how I've made the ligs go POP before (I'm JUST using my thumb and forefinger under my head). But in the stretching vids and from a few people I respect who have made gains with manual stretching, they all say/show that I should have the thumb and forefinger down further, have the pointing finger around as well, and be pressing down with my other hand with two fingers into the base. Anyone have anything to say about this?

I stretch the same way as you and it has been perfect.

So JUST the thumb and forefinger (OK grip) RIGHT UNDER the head is fine. What about using my other hand's first two fingers pushing down at the base? I watched your [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/join-now.html]MOS[/words] movie from a while back and you did this. Necessary?

I do this with most stretches. I kind of massage the ligs into the stretch plus I think holding the base back while stretching serves a dual fulcrum effect.
