Extender questions

If you are uncut should you pull back your foreskin while extending...if so, why? Also should your penis head feel numb/soreish while extending...Mine has a dull burning sensation (just began tonight)

I wear my extender with my foreskin fully retracted. I have tried it with the foreskin in its normal position, but this can only be done on a low tension as it will slip out easily...however it is much more comfortable with the foreskin there!

My glans always go numb after about 15-20 minutes and thats when i have a few minutes rest. Also, it is 'soreish' for me to wear my extender, but its tolerable.

Is it dangerous to deprive the head of blood flow for so long though, could anything messed up happen?

Cold and slightly discolored is ok for a short while, black, numb etc means it's been cut off for too long, tissue dies after about 20 minutes of the circulation being cut off, so yeah a lot of messed up stuff can happen like losing a penis. So make sure you check on it on a regular bases, and over time you'll be able to be strapped in longer(also you'll be better at strapping in with the right amount of pressure)
I used to be able to stay in 20-30 minutes or so before I needed to get the circulation going, now I can go 50-60 minutes before it gets cold and slighty blueish.

That's some scary shit! So I guess sleeping with it on is completely out of the question no matter how experienced you are eh? Have you had good gains using the extender btw?

Yes do NOT sleep with it on. I can wear mine up to 1.5 hours now. The better you get you hardly need to tighten up the strap/noose at all. I can't speak for steve but I have made good gains. My gains are in my sig, almost all from my extender.

Sleeping with it on is certainly not recommended. I can tell you I have though. I have never slept through an erection with it on though. Nor did I set out to fall asleep with it on. More like watching tv and fell asleep while wearing it.

Ouch! Gettin an erection kills while extending, I don't have the girth base so it's almost like I'm clamped.

Extenders are designed to push against the head of your penis. So yes you need to pull your skin back.

As far as it feeling numb, yes that is also normal. you need to break at 30 minutes to 45 minutes intervals and message your penis and let blood flow back for a few minutes before stating again.

Hope this helps,
Ronnie

Just curious, to any fellow extenders. How do you apply extending to your routine, or if you only extend, how many days per week. Do you use your extender, I have seen, and heard of extenders being worn for 7 days per week. Up to 8 to 12 hours per extending session, wouldn't wearing a extender for 7 days per week, hinder the healing process. For the cells in the tissue to multiply?

To me, 8 hours sleep is the healing process and cell division, that's why everyday is good for me. If a situation forces me to take a day off, then it'll be a traction wrapping day for me.

To answer your questions Goformaxgains...

Here is one of my monthly routines that you can check out https://www.pegym.com/forums/progres...ded-girth.html

And as far as using it for 7 days, some people heal faster then others. You need to learn your body and how it grows best.

Everybody is different and grows at different rates.

So you have to test, test, test to see how much is too much for your body before it gets to sore to continue. And how much is too less where you are not seeing any growth at hand.

Also keep in mind that a good healthy diet will help as well.

The healthier your body is the fast it can recover to grow faster.

Always trust you body and how it feels. If it feels sore, give it a day or two to heal up before continuing on your routines.

If you are feeling too much pain, then you are stretch much more then what your body can handle at that stage.

So back off a beat and make sure you feel a good stretch, but not sharp pains.

Hope this helps,
Ronnie Rokk

Yup, I bodybuild, so my diet is in check. I take several essential vitamins/minerals daily, omega 3's, L-Arginine, garlic. I drink around 1 gallon of water every day. I am a health nut, the only things that hold me back from increasing more days extending throug the week, is turtling. When I first started, I noticed no turtling, but as I increased the stress load on my friend. He started turtling, now if he turtles, but my e.q. is still 10 out of 10, would it be safe to continue with that stress regimen. Or fall back, until there is no turtling. I know turtling is a natural reaction, from the stress load, just wondering if you can still gain if turtling.
