Just here to gather information on how you fellow PE'ers do your jelqing session.

So which one is it? ..or do you alternate?

Overhand

I alternative every 50 reps (25 jelqs)

Overhand. Underhand feels very unnatural to me. Overhand jelqing feels intuitive. But I do think you can get a bit deeper with an underhand grip. If it feels natural and you get good results, by all means go for it!

OMG! I am so sorry. I was just jelqing and realized that I got this backwards, I think. I grip from the bottom, palm up, beneath the shaft. I don't know why I thought of this as overhand. I have a feeling everyone would agree this is underhand. OOPS! So reverse my above post. lol

My ulna pointing toward my body, radius facing upwards.

I am mostly an underhand jelqer though I do a few minutes of overhand to make sure I get my whole shaft. I also through in a few squash jelqs in the belief it helps expand the blood vessels.

Overhand, index & bird fingers on the CS, base to glans, thumb on the CC, (alternating).

Mostly overhand (Palm facing down), but I've been switching it up; don't want to get carpal tunnel/overuse injury...

Mostly overhand OK grip. Underhand is like the stranger and a drunk one at that lol

I way prefer overhand, you can really get closer to the base for your jelq. I also perform my ulis that way too, its sexy.

I mostly do overhand, but lately I've mixed and I like the pressure feels with a normal grip. To dig deeper I stretch the shaft to the side and straight out with the jelqing hand , then I add the normal ok grip at the base .

Definitely underhand,it just feels natural.

Mostly overhand, but I try and do both to keep things balanced.

I find with overhand you can include your CS a little better in the movement.
