Death Grip Questions

[broosa7 Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close broosa7]

Guys,

I have a quick question on the death grip. Should it be done with or without lube?

To me, squeezing tightly without lube doesn't feel great at all, makes it tough because you are bringing the skin with you if you grip hard enough (I am cut). On the other hand, I can see how doing the death grip this way would in theory desensitize your penis because, well it doesn't feel great at all. I know people on this forum say to do it dry and it seems to have helped them. If that is the case and it should be done this way, do I hold all the skin back with one hand and just death grip with the other? If so, how tight should my hand be.

I also can see how using lube would work as well. Lube makes it much easier to get a very tight grip and not bring the skin with you. You can also go very fast with your hand with lube.

Also, what is the real purpose of the death grip? To get used to high levels of stimulation or to get rid of some nerve endings?

Adjusting to sensitivity is GOOD, it's as much a mental exercise as a physical one. Desensitizing the nerves in your penis is insanely wrong (IMO). Why would anyone want to do THAT??? Use lube or not, but death gripping your unit to the point of desensitizing your nerves or sensation should NEVER be an objective toward overcoming Pre-E!

Train your BRAIN, DON"T Maime your THANG!

Dg is not something I advise or really understand myself. Like you it gives me no pleasure and if going against skin, just uncomfortable.
Use lube, tighten your grip if you have good control, focus on senation and getting into plateau more than anything else.

Most people do it wrong, will never understand it and are deathly afraid of it. Lol.
It's not about desensitizing or gripping extremely hard or making it feel good. It's about just not touching your penis lightly and sensually(lube use) Because THAT is what causes hypersensitivity and regular kegel spasms. It's about finding and rubbing(with your dry semi-tight grip) your most sensitive parts of your penis. Mine is at the top of my penis head near the pee hole so I do a twist at the top in order to hit it. Yes I am cut but I STILL go WITH the skin(not against it) at the shaft. The tight feeling is very helpful. You guys must be doing it wrong for YOUR type of penis and sensitive spots and death grip problems and reversible... So, I don't know what to tell you guys.
Good luck.

I understand it causing hypersensitivity but I thought regular kegel spasms was caused by pelvic floor tension ?

Ive used it in combination with edging and reverse kegels and my situation has improved tremendously. Sometimes i do dry cause i feel like it roughens up the glans a bit and youre not as sensitive. Then i also do it sometimes with lube to train myself to last through the sensations.
