No extra expansion with SSJ

Xaoc · Aug 15, 2015

I'm fairly new to PE. This is like a presentation with a question inside lol. My initial stat in girth was 5.3in, length I'm 7.28in bone pressed so right now I'm just going for girth.

I started 5 weeks ago just with the Bathmate Xtreme X40 and I worked my way to the maximum pressure with the hand pump 4x5min. AMAZING expansion with great EQ afterwards. My pumped size after session moves around 6.1-6.3in midshaft. In fact the day after the session I retain 5.7in of girth, so that measure is cemented considering I use everyday the bathmate. The thing is that I had a good ammoun of water retention and I searched in this forum (tons of useful info btw) a way of maximizing tunica expansion gains and reducing water retention gains. I discovered the SSJ, so like DLD recommend I did the 5x5x3 for the first time today. I got minimum water retention and that is amazing but my overall expansion was MUCH smaller compared to just using the bathamte: after today's session my girth was 5.9in. Considering that everyone's minds are getting blown out by the temporary gains and extra expansion doing the SSJ with the bathmate I don't know If I'm doing something wrong or that I won't get extra expansion with the exercise.

Looks like you can post threads now.

As far as expansion goes, you will get less expansion going with the 5x5x3 routine (BathMate/SSJ) but the expansion you get it tissue expansion opposed to water retention. So do not fear this loss in expansion. I also suggest you get 5 minutes of Bundled Stretches in before your girth and length sessions, this will pre-stretch the Tunica allowing for much more room in expansion and elongation.

When I exit the bathmate there's very good expansion mainly at the base, but I jelq all that to the middle part. All that's happening with you is you're filling-out the thinner areas; distributing the girth. This needs to happen bro, you're just gonna change as you grow.

And the SlowSquashJelq is awesome for evening out thicker or thinner areas to become more uniform.

Definitely helps with that for me too, help distribute the expansion more evenly.

I suggest you try jelqing also.

That is the main premiss behind getting rid of fluid retention from pumping. The SSJ forces all spaces to be equal in expansion. But I am also looking forward to your new way of reducing retention.

Putting something together hopefully to post today. Essentially I have built a routine that that works off swelling reduction principles used in sports medicine for recovery. Increase blood flow to area, stretch, compression and cold to reduce blood flow. Getting blood in and out to carry out the excess fluid and promote healing.

^ Like an icy bathmate?

Looking forward to it my Brother! Love all your work Jake, really doing a great job here!

Where you at brother?
