I recently experimented again with my vacu tech electric pump after months of not using it. I entered the cylinder and fiddled with the pressure gauge, suddenly my penis felt like it was being sucked in abit much, so I turned down the pressure, but then within seconds I was really being sucked in...turns out I had forgotten which way the dial was turned and I had turned it the wrong way...luckily the unit was right next to me and I just hit the off switch...PHEW!!!

Moral of the story...anyone with a vacu tech electric pump be careful...the little arrow showing how to turn the force up and down is basically invisible unless your up close with a good light on! A bit of a design floor if you ask me! A stupid mistake yes, and unlikely to happen when you first buy one as you are looking particularly at how to operate something new...but later on when you let your guard down and feel relaxed this could happen...especially if like me you havent pumped with it for a while.

This was afew days ago and fortunately I was completely fine, turned the pump off within a second of the force hitting me. But could have been nasty if the pump had been further away though. Just thought I would offer my stupidity to prevent anyone making the same mistake!

let me know how the gains come.

New "Country" song.

"Oh, I exploded my weenie, in a vacuum tube.
All that was left was a memory.
Now, my wife has left and my children cry and I feel like such a boob."

Carefull SA. *Hee*

"The way of suck" could be a title for a book.

Pheeeewww.

Scary story.

Glad you made it, SA!

Thank goodness I don't use a pump.

Thanks for the heads up, SA

Curious: When you experimented with pumping in the past, how were your results?

[scientificapproach]

Haha, thanks for all the comments guys, and the support in this trying time ;-) hehe Thanks for the song JP, very impressed! I will try and put some chords to it!

Remek: To be honest my results were not good. BUT, in all fairness, my experiece was very limited, I did not give it at all long enough to be effective. I think I gave it about 7 weeks, the reason I gave up though was due to measuring and seeing a slight decrease in length, but actually perhaps I did increase my girth very slightly. I think also a major problem for me was not having a clue what I was supposed to be achieveing, by that I mean what mechanism the pump used to acheive growth/enlargement. The company I bought the pump from gave a small helpsheet with the extender and said all methods of enlargement were basically the same and focused on pulling the ligaments. I thought if thats the case Id rather hang than pump. I honestly dont think these guys would have known what a tunica or a CC was!! Anyway I ended up following their advice and pumping for about 5-6 10 min sets (so 50-60 mins). I now feel thats way too much...and it was, I ended up with alot of blood spots, and because I rarely took a day off to rest back then because few people I knew recommended it, the blood spots lasted forever. I would also turtle up alot afterwards. After 7 weeks of this and seeing a decrease I had no reasons to continue. Also 50-60 mins is too long to stay really hard for each and every set, and I think you need to be or you just suck in lymph fluid.
The other thing which still does worry me slightly about pumping is so many people claim its only going to gain girth. I bought a special thickwall cylinder which is supposed to be for making length gains, but I dont quite hit the sides of the tube yet so maybe its a size to big and wont be effective at giving length gains yet, which is primarily what I am after at this moment. Also at that time I was completely lost in PE, I was getting so many different opinions thrown at me...do manuals without rest, btc stretch for as long as you can, wear an extender, hang weights, pump! If something didnt work straight away I began to feel like it just wouldnt ever work, so I better find something which would. A common problem in PE I think, but if you are putting in alot of time and effort and only seeing negative results, its only human I guess.

Saying all this I feel that pumping can be quite effective. I do know some people who claim you dont need much of it either, just 10 mins a day at 2-4hg. It certainly does feel quite effective when you are really hard and get it right. I dont think you should use too much pressure though, everyone I spoke to says this is where the injuries happened. I think if I had found the right level of volume (ie number of sets and time I pumped) and I had at least seen no negative PIs (even though I had no clue waht a PI was back then) I may well have contuined with pumping, at the moment I think I will stick to manuals and see if I can make those work for me! perhaps I have a very tough and thick tunica, seems like gains definately dont come easy to me!

SA: Out of all the devices, pumping tends to provide the most fluid build up and thus the least amount of permanent growth. That said, some men have reported great results with pumping.

Good luck with the manual exercises -- that's often all you need! Just be sure to get plenty of rest and increase the intensity
