View Full Version : Tips and tricks for effective stretching

In this thread I'm going to explain a few tricks that I use to improve the effectiveness of the simple 5 directions stretches.

Left and right stretching

For these stretches, to add to the tension of my pulling hand, I use my body to rotate in the opposite direction of my stretch. First off, I grab my penis right under the head with my thumb and index. I pull it all the way out in front of me, and I lay it on whatever side im streching (still stretching). Then, if for example I'm stretching to the right, I start rotating my whole body to the left. This provides additional tension to the ligament for more effective stretching. You can also do the same stretching by giving light tugs instead of a constant firm pull. The important is that you maintain a circular motion in the opposite direction of the stretch.

Downward's stretching

For this stretch, I use what I call, a thrusting motion. First off, pull your penis all the way out in front of you, as mentioned earlier, then pull it down like a normal downward's stretch. Then, without letting go your grip, thrust your hips forward as if you were penetrating a pussy right in front of your crotch. Do this without letting go of that downwards pull. Again, you can do the same stretch with light tugs instead of a firm constant pull.

Upward's stretch

For this stretch, I stretch my penis so the head touches my belly button, and I simply "bend down" or lean forward until I feel a really good stretch and I hold it there for the desired amount of time. The light tugs are also effective for this stretch.


Of course all of these stretches should be done while standing up. I do them for about 2 sets of 15 seconds each. I haven't found any modification for the forward stretch. Hope this posts helps.

If you have any questions or if some elements are unclear ( which is most likely) feel free to ask questions. :)

Very interesting read. I might well give the stuff you suggest a go as I'm still making lots of little alterations to my technique.

Have you been using the 'light tugs' for your stretching for long? How do you feel they benefit you over the normal holding?

For the outwards stretch, maybe you could retract your pelvis (the opposite extreme of the thrusting motion you use in the downward stretch)? Just a thought.

Nice article. :)

To be honest, I've started these modified stretches last friday, I dont really know their effectiveness yet, but I do know that I feel more of a "stretch" now. That is a good idea for the "outward" stretch, Ill give it a try on my next PE session.

As for the light tugs, I just do them randomly during my jelqing, dont know if they really help. :)

I recently started adding a little tug at the end of each Jelq too actually, to emphasise the stretching aspect of the Jelq since I'm going mainly for length gains.

I'll give these ideas a try in my next session (either tomorrow or Friday depending how my foreskin heals up... :x). :)

Good post, Beefy! Do You really rotate while doing left and right stretching? Make sure to close the curtains for that or Your neighbours will definately call the police! :lol: Sorry. :puke: Seriously: whatever works for You. One hint from Bobo (one I got from Godma if I remember correctly): use Your whole fist for the grip, not only the ok-grip. This way You'll have a better grip and the glans won't be under so much stress.

Thanks Bobo and Bear.

Haha, dont worry about the police, I do my stretches in the shower.

I'll give that "full" grip a try, thanks.

Shit, now I can't get this image off my head! :lol: Just imagine how stupid and weird... if not even spooky it would look if someone saw a guy pulling his dick and rotating around naked! :lol: :x Now, get this image off my head!!! :evil:

I think I'll try that full grip too, thanks Bobo.

Since I'm having issues with my stretching at the moment, I'll definitely give this stuff a go and heopfully it should help me out. Thanks again to both of you! :)

I hope my comment didn't offend You, wasn't my meaning. I know what You meant, and if it helps Your stretching then You should do it. Only fooling around... and yes, I'm tired. :wink:

No offence taken at all my green friend. Only a good laugh. :)

nice post my beefy friend. I 've been doing the same thing on my left and right stretches for a while now, and I do feel that it helps to get a betterstretch. the only way I've found to get a better straight out stretch is to do a two-handed stretch. I grab with one hand, and secure that grip with the other and seem to be able to add extra force without losing my grip as easily.

Thanks JB, I'll give that some thought also.

I do the twist as well :) Although I hold with a full hand grip and stretch as far as I can then I use the other hand to push the holding hand farther and then twist.. I get a really good feeling of stretch that way.. I sometimes have to lay off of it though. I feel like if I did much more I would tear a lig.

From what I know of stretching in general, it is very dangerous to rythmically extend the ligament that is being stretched.

Think about it logically as well: The purpose of stretching is to make the ligament longer than it presently is. And that takes a long time to do. To sharply force it to extend longer than it is will damage it.

I strongly suggest you STOP THIS extra tugging beef! You may damage the ligament.

Stretching with a constant pull is the best way to go.

Interesting I think I might try to do this a little tomorrow. My first week still but it doesn't sound like it would hurt. Maybe ill shake things up a little bit tomorrow in the morning and do PE then as opposed to night. Catch the penis off guard :twisted: . Little bastard :D

Yeah I have heard that stuff before in stretching activites I used to do these dancer girls told me it was not thought of as good to do it like that. Like swinging your arms vertically to get blood flow could cause accute hyperextension or something like that. But I suppose as long as you just did it very slight it might not hurt anything.
If your here a popping sound I wouldn't try to do it again.

Thanks for the concern wern. But the "tug" part I got from PA. I don't do it much though. I still prefer the constant pull.

It's called ballistic stretching...and while it is more dangerous than standard stretching, is actually far better for increasing flexibility within muscles and ligs (when applied to the rest of the body) which means it's better at increasing elasticity...therefor giving us the desired result within the target ligament. Ballistic stretching is how they did it old school...and the problem was mainly with people not being warmed up when they did it.

Thought this post looked interesting so gave it a bump for some other comments and to see if anyone still does these stretches.

Damn I just looked at the date, I thought this was current! :mrgreen

My bad, good read though.

I thought it was also, so giving it a bump might start some new ideas around this. If not it will slip back down.
