Steel cord / septum

Hey guys,

I've been focusing on length a lot lately and yesterday I finally noticed the phenomenon referred to as the steel cord. When pulling straight out flaccid stretch, I feel a distinct cord running through the entire penis which is DEFINITELY the limiting factor. Every part of the penis has room to stretch more, but it held back by this cord.

Every thread I've read about this issue bacially ends without an answer. So I just wanted to make my own thread and see if anyone can chime in with new info. It seems the general consensus is that the cord cannot be stretched because it is thick collagen and isn't elastic. I feel like once it is extended in a stretch, pulling harder would break it instead of stretching it.

Any new breakthroughs or info on this? Jw if I should quit length exercises and just do girth now or if there's any possibility of getting more length. Im about 7.5bpel now and I really want to be 8+. But I don't want to waste more time stretching if there's no way this cord will ever give... thanks in advance!

Had this image handy, can you point to exactly where you are speaking of? Thanks.

He is referring to the Deep dors. v. of penis. I also had the same problem that's why I switched to bundled stretches and I still feel it during bundled stretches some times especially during my 1st 10 minutes bundled stretches for the day

I'm taking about the inner septum of collagen between the CCs. When you pull the penis straight out flaccid, you can feel a cord of collagen limiting further stretch.

Fulcrum stretches!

this is from a post by the user King Snake:

"Topic2: The septum being the toughest tissue in the penis

The next topic is the septum. Here’s the definition of the septum according to anatomyexperts.com. “The septum of the penis is formed by the inner layer of the tunica albuginea as it joins between the corpora cavernosa. It is made up of a series of vertical bands arranged like the teeth of a comb, thus having the name of the pectiniform septum”.

Another name that most Penis Enlargementers go by is the steel cord. This tough wire like tissue is what causes resistance when you stretch your penis before the tunica tissue surrounding the corporal bodies do. A lot of work is needed to enlongate this dense area more so then the rest of the tunica and the ligs. In my opinion one can make gains with basic manual stretching and bundled stretching but at some point hanging will be needed to get in more time under tension. With the septum I think it’s the time under tension principle that’s the most important and a lot of time under tension is needed. Simply stretching your penis for a mere 30 to 45 minutes isn’t enough.

The septum needs to be put under tension for hours at a time. You guys have to understand that we are trying to encourage cell division and enough of it to cause tissue mass accumulation which means actual growth. For this to happen, the area being stressed has to get that signal that change is needed meaning adding more cells. To activate that signal, long periods of tension is needed. I personally have made my biggest gains when split my Penis Enlargement training into morning sessions, mid day sessions, and evening sessions every day. On top of that I wore an ADS or an ADCs device in between sessions to keep some kind of tension on the penis. This is what it takes to cause cellular division without the use of growth compounds which we’ll talk about later.

Simply doing 30 minutes of jelqing and some manual stretches isn’t going to cut it. Doing 1 to 2 ten minute clamping sets or a few hanging sets isn’t going to cut it. In my opinion hours of tension is needed to convince your penile cells to split. The septum being as tough as it is needs this kind of work to elongate. This is why even medical doctors say the penis extender is a good tool for elongation of the penis if worn for a minimum of 4 hours a day. An ADS device is needed fellas. Weather it’s an extender or simply hanging light golf weights off your dick for hours at a time, something is needed to keep light tension on your penis while it heals from your heavy Penis Enlargement sessions."

The posts by KS has helped me create a successful routine that I'm gaining from now but I do take some of his posts with a grain of salt. I slightly disagree with this recent post of his where hours are needed for gains and anything less than that won't cut it 🤔🤔. But I mean this stuff is all up for interpretation anyway. I still don't fully understand why I'm gaining all around length from only straight down stretching but I don't feel the same inner stretch when I stretch straight up or even outwards.

Indeed! Get out your LengthMaster or PowerAssist and attack this with fulcrum stretches. Very powerful but highly ignored stretching style.

I also believe that time under tension is key. For girth or length. The only issue is practicality of this. I don't think a lot of men have time or the means to keep constant tension. Not everyone's work environment or lifestyle obligations would allow for this kind of duration:/ I've heard of several people making amazing gains with prolonged engorgement as well. Caverject or Tri-mix induced multi-hour engorgement daily. Finding a way to consistently spend hours on PE daily... that's tough lol.

Well there is the Phallosan, the SizeGenetics and the PeniMasterPro, all are great for this type of training. And I agree with you, it is key to apply the most intensity you can for as long as possible to make gains fastest.

so after training , what kind of ADS would you reccomend? it seems like there are suppirior option to the Uncle-Jims strap or the sillicone sleeve, options that put more stress on the penis(like walking with some sort of a small weight) but they seems to be less pratical once you leave the privacy of your house.

I know that ADS devises have been linked to small amounts of growth. But I'm not sure that it can work once the septum is the only limiting factor. If the rest of the penis is soft and stretchy and the septum is the only thing limiting growth, ADS probably won't work because of the physical properties of the septum.

The septum collagen is insanely tough. It would be like hanging a 5 gallon bucket of water from a chain that is made for pulling trucks. It could hang for a lifetime and never stretch the chain one bit. The septum is such a tough collagen material with VERY limited elasticity. Almost none. I think it would break before it would stretch.

The best is the Phallosan as it can be worn 24 hours a day, even when sleeping. The Phallosan is unique in the sense that it delivers awesome length gains when used a intense setting, but is can also be used at a light to medium tension for cementing length gains and improving flaccid size big time. It is the most concealable and comfortable to wear. The SizeGenetics and the PMP are also great but can't be worn as long and are no where near the comfort level.

im going to look into it. thanks DLD!

Thanks One! I hope this helps you as it has so many others!

I've actually been considering that (phallosan). Do you think it could be worn for 12 hours straight? I'll be doing shift work soon and this is the only form of PE I'll be able to do (if wearing that long wouldn't be dangerous).

I don't know. The main thing that freaks me out about wearing a device at work, or suggesting a guy does, is not everyone can just suddenly stop what they're doing if something doesn't feel right. You get a sharp pinch sensation all of a sudden in your glans, for example.... meaning a blister and the longer it goes, the bigger that blister is getting. Could be really bad.

You can wear for 24 hours a day. The best way to use the Phallosan is in two modes, an active mode where there is intensity and growth happening, this could be the 12 hours, but after this you can use the Phallosan in a passive mode, meaning a light to medium intensity to help heal the gains you are making in active mode. This healing can be done in the Phallosan over night. You can also add the Phalosan to the SizeGenetics and make the PhalloGenetics modification, very powerful mod. I hope we were able to help you in your choice.

I don’t really believe in the steel cord BS. I’ve had what I though was a cord since I started, hasn’t stopped me from gaining 3/4” in 8 months. You pull intensely and do girth exercises and the tissue will give. It’s just tissue, not steel. It’s elastic

Agree, it never made a lot of sense and I never really knew how to advise. To me it was simply the the main dorsal but I guess that is what they are referring to, perhaps some men have a tight dorsal vein but even in that case it is easily stretched.
