A year and a half into my pumping journey

[Nu2Pump]

Not gonna lie, not much gained for me. I have pumped at least 3 days a week except 2 weeks when I got my only blister on my head. So, anywhere between 3-5 days a week 1 hr long sessions each. I used to set it on 5hg and leave entire hr. Lately I've been interchanging between 5hg and 7hg every 10 min until hr is up. The only things I've noticed is that about 4 hrs after pumping that's when I like my erection size, a little girthier than normal. Within 24 hr time my penis is at my original size before pumping. I might have a little more girth, but nothing substantial. Length is the same. The only real difference I notice is that in my flaccid state I have more hang. Does this seem normal? If I'm doing something that can be improved upon please let me know. Appreciate the feedback.

It takes time. I started at 5.5 erect in 2000 and now I’m at 6.75. I hand stretch for a few minutes after I piss, but nothing major. This is an actual lifestyle for me, and I like the pleasurable feeling I get from it. There is no quick growth. I would focus on enjoying the experience and relax on trying so hard to grow. Girth is a faster gain. I started at around 3.5 flaccid and now it’s 5.5 flaccid a little over 6 when erect plus the girth is satisfying to your partner. Your experience is normal, relax and understand that you have to be in it for the long haul. Remember that what you see in the tube is all you and what you’re capable of becoming…that’s a reward! If you ever need encouragement, this community is great. PM anytime for motivation.

I agree with grizzdaddy.

Pumping is a joy and a lifestyle, not a chore or size accomplishment.

Get into the act itself. Go easy on the pressure and stay longer in the tube.

Learn to love yourself and love your manhood. Give it all the positive sexual energy you can.

Pumping is gift you give yourself it’s just a sexual pleasure.

And if you can find someone to share it with, openness is the best turn on.

Honestly I’m not personally sold on permanent growth. I’ve pumped for nearly 20 years off and on (mostly off) and since I don’t have a reference for if I hadn’t pumped I can’t say I have anything from it. IMO the people who've gained either have restored function that they lost due to aging and poor lifestyle choices OR they’ve developed long term edema. Most of the pumping giants have obviously not normal looking dicks. Not to downplay their personal journey since we all have different goals.

I do agree with everyone else’s mantra: enjoy the process and pleasure.

Summarized well by grizzdaddy.

I am pumping for 8 years, but had 7 years spent on a bad routine, gained almost nothing. Last year I found a helpful pumper on Tumblr, who showed me practical ways, added what pumps to use and how to get good results either on girth, or on length.
He also claimed it is a good addiction with joy, if handled as a part of current lifestyle. Even living on different continents, he helped me whenever possible.
I tried experiencing tubes by myself, spent some money on better stuffs than going on cheap. Also testing out limits of pain and pressure. Sometimes needed shorter and longer pauses, but after a good time I made my good routine. Gained a few in girth, but won't stop working on it.

So get into it on your own. Try low pressures (, and check your cock's and body's reaction. Be careful on high pressures, could cause pain, damages in veins or even erection failures. Also doughnuts. Increase your tube time by minutes slowly.

If you take care of your manhood, it will give you better results, even an improved sex life (wife goes crazy sometimes on my pumped cock )

Feel free to contact me if you need.

I agree 100%. Well said buddy

When y'all say low and slow, how long and at how many HGs?

[bucket]

5hg or less, an hour or so a day broken up into 20m sessions with massage in between. Try to make time but it doesn't have to be every day. Keep hydrated beforehand. Get a vacuum pump with a gauge, don't try to guess, you'll get it wrong.

Does doing 20 min increments instead of 1hr straight have better results?

I had this routine at the start: Start pumping up slowly to 4 inHg and keep there for 10 minutes. Then release pressure to 2 inHg for 2-3 minutes as resting. Then go back to 4 inHg for another 10 minutes. Then stop for the day.
Repeat this every day for 5-6 days (or a week). When you see your cock feels good at it, increase tube time by one only (so 4 inHg for 11 minutes). Then, after a week, increase tube time again only by 1 minute.
When feeling accustomed well to this treatment, have pressure increased by 1 inHg- If no pains at 5 inHg, then keep pressure there and do your tube time increase by 1 minute per week.

Funnily enough repeated dropping vacuum and raising it again is a more effective way of growth, yes. That's why most of the purpose made electric pumps have several pump/release cycles that vary by duration. Not too mention it refreshes the blood circulation.
