[Common Jelqing Errors]

[MagnumXL]

I have been doing PE for sometime and I have noticed some small things i have been doing wrong that have hindered my gains.

1)Not starting the jelq from the very base. Push your ok into the fat if u have some, start it as close as possible

2)Not having the correct erection. There is an optimal level u should have that will allow for the best jelq. You will know u have reached it when you jelq and u feel great pressure on the outter walls while still not being 'hard'

3)Letting go before the complete jelq is done. Never let go until you reach the very bottom of the head! Keep the hand firmly until its over.

4)Letting the blood out of ur penis without trapping it in. By this i mean right before ur gone jelqing, make the ok grip with the other hand at the base. this not only keeps ur erection levels at their optimum but also keeps the blood trapped in.

hope this helps some of u cuz i ahve been doing these things wrong and now i think i will have better gains from these changes.

Good post, XL. It's wise to analyze the jelqing technique, because some may jelq for months with crappy technique and they won't gain anything. Understanding the jelqs, what happens in the tissue, is the key to success.

[Dong_Johnson]

you're not supposed to jelq past the beginning of the head ? ?

[Shane_Bos]

I think he means go all the way from the bottomest of bottoms to the topest of the top.

[Bobo]

Yeah, all the way, baby.

[MagnumXL]

Yes sorry, all the way. All this new information kinda 'hit me' right as i was about to start my PE session for the day, so i thought i would do a quick post before i forget.

[hugh g rection]

I have never jelqed past the bottom of the head. Why on earth would you jelq up and include the head in your jelq?

[Shane_Bos]

Otherwise you will be forcing blood into your head all the time and keeping it there and it might explode! If you jelq all the way up it gives the blood a chance to go back into your shaft to help with the next jelq.

[Dong_Johnson]

bit confused now :?
Checked up on the original wet jelq guide

http://www.cheekycherry.co.uk/penis_exercise_one_wetmilkactual.htm

"Step 3
Stop when you reach the glans (head), and repeat with the other hand. Make each stroke last about three or four seconds"

So is it to the start of the head or all the way to the end of the penis?
Someone want to clear this up once and for all ? (help us matt? :) )

[Valk]

It is when you reach the start of the head.

[MagnumXL]

I infact do it both ways. sometimes i stop at the bottom of the head, whereas sometimes i go and actually 'milk' the head. When i milk the head i feel it pushes more blood back into my shaft for a better shaft jelq.

[Bobo]

I always jelqed all the way, but eased up on the grip at glans.

[hugh g rection]

I will stick with just stopping below the head thanks, going over the head feels extremely odd.

MagnumXL,

You may be the one to ask about this, or maybe you could tell me who to ask.

Why do we want to jelq at erection levels below 80%.

I keep reading not to do it, but no reason is ever given.

[MagnumXL]

The reason being is because it causes too much strain on the tunica itself and will get injured easily doing this. Now you may ask 'but what about holds?' Holds strain the tunica at a high erection level but only for a certain amount of times. If you were to do jelqing at 100% erection for lets say 300 reps then not only would not gain shit but you would hurt yourself and possibly delay gains for several weeks. Also when you jelq at a lower erection level, you are forcing the blood into new pockets in the 'flacid state'. Thus when you reach a higher erection level the pocket can now be filled.

PE is a slow process because you're working at microscopic levels practically. Stick to it and never get an 'erection' when you jelq. Everytime I get to the point where im almost hard but i can still do heli shakes without my dick being stiff.

[wern]

Its not wise to jelq all the way to the head because theres a chance you'll damage the nerves just below the glans, such as the dorsal nerves and the frenulum. Best to stop about 1/2 an inch from the glans.

[Seek&Destroy]

Thanks MagnumXL,

I tried to get a technical answer for that for a couple of days. Nobody answered the thread I made in the beginners forum. I figured nobody there knew the answer.

[MagnumXL]

If Bobo is still around I bet he can answer that even more in depth then myself. He has a PhD in PE.

[zwmusic]

I have to agree with hugh g. Going over the head with the jelq feels odd and doesn't do a thing for growth. The glans is a different tissue and it doesn't have Tunica Albuginea inside. Just look at the pics I posted in the Male Genital Anatomy (Beginners Section) and see for yourselves. Also, the Corpora Cavernosa becomes narrow and stops just after the rim of the glans. There's absolutely no point in jelqing the head. It's just a nervous spongy tissue to increase the sensation during sex.

[MagnumXL]

zw, I believe the point of jelqing the head is to get more blood back in the shaft. I dont think the point is to cause the glands to grow.

MagnumXL,

I do Jelqing always above 80 % erection . Not 100% but lets say about 90%. Always stop a stroke ½ - 1 inch before glans. It just feels right that way to me. Instead jelqin semi flaccid penis feels very odd.
I have never insured, felt pain or had any problems with it (other than red spots sometimes)
I still dont reccomend anyone to do so if it were a risk, It just works for me.

[MagnumXL]

But the real question is have you gained and in what department, length or girth? :D

[BIGOKE]

zw, I believe the point of jelqing the head is to get more blood back in the shaft. I dont think the point is to cause the glands to grow.
Agree. When i jelq past the head it pushes the blood back into the shaft. If I stop at the head then the head expands. I suppose it depends on what you want to achieve. If you happy with the size of your head then jelq past it. If you want the head to grow, stop below.

[Shane_Bos]

I agree Bigoke, well put.

BTW, you can have your own custom saying now :mrgreen

[wern]

Mag, even if you gain more by jelqing all the way to the head, that potential extra gain doesn't outweigh the huge increase in the risk of nerve damage

[zwmusic]

Fact is, it won't get more blood back bacause of what I've just said, the blood you're moving for growth is the blood inside the Corpora which is covered by the Tunica. The blood inside the glans doesn't take an active role in this... I'll tell you what, it's your dicks, you guys do whatever you like with it.

[Shane_Bos]

I'll tell you what, it's your dicks, you guys do whatever you like with it.

Ooooooooo, someone's got his knickers in a twist :mrgreen

[darkwarrior]

but wouldnt you want to pump new blood into the penis each lets say 5 reps?

[G-Spot19]

I like to pump fresh blood too. I stop at the glans and every so often give a little tug. Anyways tthe way a jelq should be done, as you finish one stroke, the other hand should be at the base ready to follow. Hence the milking action.

[BIGOKE]

I never jelq past the head, mainly because most forums and paysites don't say you must. It isn't even an option. Most tell you to stop at the head.
