In this follow up article to Penis Pumping 101 - An Overview, we will cover methods used in a typical pumping session when supplementing a manual routine. It will cover various techniques as well as common “best-practices.” It will also highlight things pumpers should avoid in order to maximize “in-tube” time and effectiveness.
Pumped to Pump!
First and foremost, penis pumping is a girth-targeted exercise. While length increases can be achieved, pumping is designed to make the penis thicker by expanding the inner chambers of the penis. One of the terms or phrases often used is “packing.” It refers to how much the penis makes contact with the inner cylinder wall and how much of the penis completely fills the chamber. As a pumper, a major growth indicator is moving up in cylinder size. This is a pretty big deal; the more the tube is packed and the faster it takes to reach that level, it is a signal that a) your routine works, and b) increases are becoming permanent. By using the proper techniques, and with a good manual routine as a base, real size gains can be realized.
It’s All in the Technique
Along with the standard stretching and jelqing exercises, penis pumping can lead to sizeable gains. But there’s more to it than just placing your penis into a tube and squeezing a handle; there are several techniques you can use during your session to help get maximum expansion:
Milking the Tube: Milking is one of the most common, and arguably the most effective technique. It aids in maintaining good circulation and exercises the inner chambers of the penis. The motion is similar to masturbation; the cylinder is moved up and down the shaft. It is recommended that milking be done only after the penis has become acclimated to the pressure during your session, typically after 5-7 minutes. Milking should not be done forcefully, but at a smooth, slow to moderate pace. Milking is typically done in short sets. Additionally, milking too hard or too long can cause increased edema (the donut effect) since pressure levels spike as the cylinder is shifted up and down.
Pulse Pumping: Varying the pressure from time to time also helps stimulate the penile tissues to expand. Pulsing is done by alternating pressure levels throughout the session. For example, a max pressure level for a session may be 5 in.Hg. After one minute at this level, decrease the pressure slowly over 30 seconds to zero pressure, then quickly pump back to max level, then repeat. This practice is highly effective, and like milking, promotes enhanced circulation and exercising of the inner chambers.
Shakes: The best results from pumping are obtained when the penis is erect in the tube. The longer a session goes and the longer you are in the tube, the more difficult it is to maintain an adequate erection level. Shakes are used to help maintain the erection by stimulating nerve endings and coaxing blood flow. To do this, shake the cylinder up and down by hand or with a rocking motion with the hips. This should not be done too hard, but forceful enough that the erection level increases. Vary the intensity and the range of motion in order to give the base a good stretch.
Wrapping: Heat is an excellent way of stimulating blood flow, a staple in any penis enlargement regimen. Wrapping is a simple technique that involves wrapping the cylinder with a heating device (such as an electric heating pad) during the pumping session. Be very careful that the wrap is not left on too long as blisters and more serious burn damage can occur. The cylinder can become very hot very quickly.
Pitfall Harry
“Pumping longer and at higher levels should increase my size faster!” It is a common misconception and also a very dangerous one. There is a plethora of anecdotal evidence all over the Internet detailing the mishaps and injuries (many of them severe) due to overzealous pumping. Penis pumping is a very effective enlargement process and is very safe when administered correctly. There is a saying: “The penis should not be FORCED to grow; it should be gently urged to WANT to grow.” The slow, methodical nature of proper pumping urges the penis to grow much faster and more effectively than forceful methods. Here are a couple of tips and some pitfalls to be mindful of in order to avoid injury:
- Avoid over-pumping. It is the easiest to avoid, yet the most commonly seen injury. The act of pumping itself, with the pressures of the vacuum on the penis, is very comfortable, sensual, and for some, erotic. It is very easy to get lost in the experience and lose track of time while in the tube so caution must be exercised in order to stay within a set “window of effectiveness.” Many advanced pumpers will often go on pumping “marathons,” pumping for up to 5 hours at a time. This is an extreme practice and one that is not recommended where safety and erection quality is a concern.
- Take frequent breaks. Breaks should be taken often to help stimulate bloodflow and to release the pressures built up in the penile tissues. As a general rule, a 3-5 minute break every 15 minutes should be used (if pumping at very low levels, in-tube time between breaks can go up to 30 minutes). During the break, jelqing, stretching and massaging are encouraged. Novice pumpers should limit pumping sessions to a max of 30 minutes, not to exceed 2 sessions a day. Intermediate users should maintain sessions of no more than 1 to 1.5 hours, while optimal levels for advanced users are typically in the 2 to 3 hour range over several sessions.
Conclusion
We’ve covered various techniques used during a penis pumping session and some tips to avoid injury. There are other techniques and we will look at those in subsequent articles. In the next segment, we will look at the two-stage cylinder and the effectiveness of ball pumping.
