The Zen of Jelqing

[Radiohead Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close Radiohead]

Okay so let me get this straight.

Get half erect. 40-60%. make an OK grip at the base of the penis. Use lots of lube, push the blood up the shaft with your right hand. Then when you reach the glans, start an OK grip with your left hand. Halfway up, put your right hand back to the base of the penis. Dont squeeze too hard, just enough to push the blood through the penis into the glans. Each jelq must last 3-4 seconds.

V jelqs: make a fist where the inside of your hand is facing your stomach. place your penis between the middle and ring fingers. Gently pull up the shaft. (same left/right hand technique).

Please correct me if my V jelqs are wrong.

You are spot on with both of these. Good Luck.

I have always jelqed at between 30 % and 50 % erect and have made tremendous progress at this level--always worrying about popping a blood vessel or bruising my delicate peter. (I want to keep it looking pink and healthy). I have heard of injuries, albeit rare, when people have jelqed at 100 % erection levels.

You are right going411by7. It's not as rare as you might think. Thrombosed veins are usually the result of too much erection and squeezing with too much pressure.

You are welcome cloudthinker. Just keep reading. We here at the Gym, try to guide members through the process of PE, with ways to get maximum gains without injury.

Yep, Jelqing gets to be such a habit, that we really forget what the intensity should be.
Still easy to wind up with an injury even after all these years. Good to remind ourselvs from time to time. Although, giving out advice, pretty much keeps it in mind.

Stretch slow and hold at the maximum length your penis can tolerate without pain and hold it for 30 - 60 seconds. Take the other hand form an OK grip place it in the middle of your stretched penis and lift it up from the middle while holding the stretch. Then pull the middle grip down a bit. Then pull it to the left then to the right.

Try these:

Useing your index and middle finger, make a < and grasp the base of the shaft. (Sideways) Pull out and stretch at the glans. Push the < back into the pubic bone and squeeze the < tight.
When you are pushing back as far as you can and the shaft is stretched as far as it will go, take the hand holding the glans and pull (back toward the abdoman) up and over the index finger, using this finger as a fulcrum. Hold this stretch as long as you can. Then make a > with the other hand and repeat this exercise by pulling down and using the middle finger as a fulcrum. Do 5 reps in each direction, at 30 seconds each. You can roll your wrist to apply more tension to the fulcrum(s). If at any time you lose your grip at the glans, you can move your pulling hand down the shaft somewhat to get more of a grip, but always keep the <->'s squeezed tight and pressed back into the pubic bone.

Now I'm really worried about jelqing too hard.

I dont squeeze very hard. I squeeze just enough so that the head of the penis is filled with blood and it gets kind of hard. Not too hard, but the head is kinda stiff. I think its the right way to do it. I do my jelqs when my penis is soft..soft so that I cant have sex or masturbate for example. I guess thats 50% erection. When it gets stiff enough to masturbate, I wait till it gets softer.

Also, should I kegel with an erection or flaccid? does it change anything?

[JonPop Retired Sr. Administrator PEGym Hero Find all posts View Profile Close JonPop]

When you're erected a Kegel will push more blood into your penis. When you are flaccid, you are exercising the BC muscle. It doesn't, make much difference. You are exercising the BC, both ways.

Uncut jelq

Could you please recommend how to jelq with an uncut penis? It seems that my foreskin tends to get in the way, and the hand-over-hand motion bars any possibility of my skin pulling back. So while I jelq, I'm stretching my foreskin from the base to Gumby lengths, and although I'm looking to gain a bit of size and focus on a heartier and meatier meat mallet, I do not want a mutated anteater curled up in my crotch. Any suggestions? Or do all of the hooded monks need to look for other methods?

I am uncut and I leave my foreskin over my penis while I jelq...the idea is that you squeeze blood into the penis...

You have to sacrifice one thing for another. Do you prefer a bigger, harder, thicker penis with lots of foreskin or do you prefer the penis you have right now with the foreskin you have...

I prefer a bigger cock with more foreskin if that's the price
