Hello all,

This is my first post here although I've been lurking for a while. Became interested in PE after learning about it through Foreskin Restoration and I thought I would do both concurrently. I have been stretching and jelqing daily since mid-October 2016.

Some of the members of my foreskin restoring forum were using bathmates, which was intriguing enough to me to want to look into it.

So I ordered a [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]hercules[/words] and it arrived today. Of course I thought I would wait and do some more reading and learning before using it the first time, but I was excited enough that I had to hop in the shower to try it out.

I was conservative in my first usage, mostly just trying to sort out the mechanics. I forgot to trim before hand so I will probably do that tomorrow before my next session.

First thing I noticed was how amazing a feeling it is to submerge my penis in the warm water. That feeling is pretty much worth it if nothing else!

I pumped only once and felt the vacuum a bit and so just practiced the mechanics of losing vacuum/refilling [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]bathmate[/words]/applying suction etc. rinse and repeat.

Really enjoyable easy process and I am looking forward to adding it to my daily routine. My overall goals value safety and health over fast gains, and so my moderate/conservative beginnings with the pump reflect that.

All the best and thanks for all the great knowledge on here.

Bolden
 
Since I got the [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]Bathmate[/words] I've done a couple more days of sessions this weekend. I am slowly and cautiously exploring how much pressure seems safe to me at this time.

I'm really enjoying reading the forums and seeing other men's success. It is encouraging!
 
I am so happy that you are taking to the [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]BathMate[/words] so well! A couple of tips that will help with vacuum. Trim pubic hair down to about 1/4" or less, use a smear of vaseline around the seal and you could always add a wine-vac. Other than that just keep learning and taking your time.

Thanks DLD!

Is it appropriate for me to use this thread as a continuing diary/log?

Cheers

No, I will move it to the progress section for you.
 
Hi Bolden,

Happy that you like your Bathmats, it is a fantastic product. Don't be afraid to pump, it's perfectly save and you cannot get too high of a pressure/vacuum, even if you pump it to the max. The vacuvinmod is another story though...

Tip: the 5x5x3 is amazing, but just start slowly with 5x5x2 (5min [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]BM[/words], 5min [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/forum/penis-enlargement-forum/12539-slow-squash-jelq-nothing-give-me-better-expansion.html]SSJ[/words]: repeat 2 to 3 times).

Also: warming up the penis (fill a sock with rice or something, put it in the microwave until it is warm, not hot) and stretching it before getting into the [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]bathmate[/words] really helps expansion. Without warming up the pressure just feels a little awkward and gains aren't as good.
 
going in with the highest possible EQ is also beneficial, (I also Kegel and RK while pumped and erect). just use your imagination, throw in some [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]BM[/words] Hardcore Stretches and before you know it, you'll be graduating to the [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]X40[/words]
 
My measurements are average, how long does it normally take to max out a size with everyday dedicated PE?

I realize this is a question with many variables, but just looking to see other's experiences.

If you are referring to how quickly men go from a smaller [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]BathMate[/words] to a bigger one I would say this happens over a 6 month period. If you are simply asking how fast gains can be made, in my own experience I made a 2" gain in length over 6 months and .5" gain in girth in the same time. You are right, everyone is different and the variables can be anywhere from strength used to tool usage. Motivation and inspiration are also factors that will help you gain faster.
 
Thanks DLD,
For now I will focusing on maxing out my [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]hercules[/words] and see where I can go from there!
Of the last week I think I have pumped every day but one.
I am kegeling every day.

Maxing out a [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]Hercules[/words] is a great thing and you will be at a huge size.
 
Had another good session today, and I am starting to use the [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]bathmate[/words] erect instead of flaccid. I am starting to get used to the different sensations of pumping.

There's definitely a learning-curve w/all PE equipment, but especially The [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]BM[/words]. Once you have all the rudimentary moves down-pat, start getting creative...hardcore stretches, behind-the-cheeks stretches, turning the cylinder upside-down, dynamic pumping, etc.etc.

Glad to hear you've taken to it so quickly...I really enjoy every session and I've been doing this almost every day for 2 1/2 years

Agree!
 
This morning's session I mixed it up a bit by doing my stretching before my shower. I stand in the tub without the water running so I don't waste as much. I realized that this is something I can do later in the day too without having a shower.

Had a little bit of discomfort on the front of my pubic bone where the [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]gaiter[/words] presses in to get suction. It seems I have to press fairly hard to get it to pump. Are there any nerves here that can be damaged through the pushing motion?

Still not getting a lot of expansion but I do really like the plump look after my cock comes out of the pump.
 
I have the same doubt as you, Bolden: If there are any nerves near the base/pubic bone that can be damaged through the pushing motion. I got a little bit of pain durring my sessions, too. There was a time that i had to stop for a week because the pain was unbearable, and it was hurting even when i'm not doing anything. Maybe it's just a question of strengthening.
 
Hi Joao,
That doesn't sound good! In your experience did the pain radiate anywhere else, or did you experience any numbness in the penis? My pain was located only in the pubic bone, but looking for these signs could indicate whether it can affect the penis or the pelvis more. I haven't seen many posts of this nature on the forum so I don't know if it's a common problem.

The front of my pubic bone area was a bit sensitive yesterday after the session and somewhat uncomfortable. It is now fine this morning but I have not done todays session. What it felt like was a bruised muscle or something.
Maybe there is a modification that can be made to avoid excessive pushing pressure on the pubic bone. Today I will experiment with using slow sustained pressure on each pump and see if that makes a difference.

Cheers,
 
Experimented today with a new trick (to me) for pumping the [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]BathMate[/words]. What I did was, each time I pumped, I put my thumb just slightly under the northern edge of the [words=https://officialhydromaxpump.com/?uid=6&oid=2&affid=98]gaiter[/words]. This means that the pressure was not focused on my pubic bone, but on the thumb which could apply equal counter pressure. The trick is to put the thumb underneath the edge only so far as to not lose suction. It seems to work well and I have not experienced more pain in the front of my pubis. I will continue with this method and add a vacu vin once I feel I'm ready for more intense sessions.

I approximated 553 in my session today. The timing isn't exact but the sequence is.

Sorry for not replying sooner, my friend! No numbness at all in my penis, only pain right in the base of my penis and pubic bone. When I get that pain, I rest for 2 days and back to training.
