So, I started pumping yesterday for the first time. I purchased a metal pump with a gauge and a 8x1.75 cylinder from LA Pumps. After warming up and stretching, I put it on and pumped for about 10 minutes. I didn't feel much sensation, but when I pulled it out WOW!

My penis looked really thick and my head was larger and red. I was impressed. I can see how someone could go overboard and want to pump more, but I resisted the urge. Because of forums like this, I've learned to take it slow and easy. I've clamped the last couple of months, so I'm pretty conditioned. But I didn't want to take any chances the first time using it.

Over time I hope the gains will come. I can't wait until I have to move up to a larger cylinder!
