Where do you put pressure when you jelq? Top/bottom or side/side?

[remek Founder Find all posts View Profile Close remek]

I've been asked this question a few times:

Do I jelq by putting the pressure on the sides or by putting the pressure on the top and bottom (anterior and posterior) parts of my penis?

My Answer: I typically switch it up. I tend to do one minute of side/side pressure, and the next minute I do top/bottom. Some people say there is no difference, and they may be right. However, I have noticed my penis looks more engorged when I put pressure on the top/bottom. This might be a way to more girth gains. I don't know.

Feedback is appreciated.

I used to do more side/side jelqing and I only gained girth depth-wise, which thinking intuitively actually makes sense because the penis is being pushed that way. I have switched now to putting more pressure on top/bottom because I would much rather have a wide penis than a deep one.

On that note, I wonder if anybody has looked into that? Most women prefer girth to length, that has already been established. But what type of girth? Wide or deep?

I hope to study this in the future when I get some more time.

I am not so sure I have an answer to your quesiton. In fact, I bet most women don't know ither.

Maybe some of the women on this board can chime in.

Being the female that I am, why choose, when I can have both !!! And if you really want my opinion give me the benefits of both and I would be glad to post my opinion.

Personally I think a wide penis LOOKS a lot better than a deep one.

Maybe we should get some PE vets with good girth gains to sort something out with you as an "experiment" or something.

Cough* Big Girtha * Cough.

Personally, if I had to choose I would also go for the wider look. Like the Mazda commercial says, wider is better. But why choose if you can have both?

In my routine of Jelqing routine I do top and bottom then side to side, this give the penis a all round thickness, this is what I do. But to get the best results is when your at 60-70 % erect.

I like many guys like to mix it up... it really gives me a great "all around workout."

Dust, lil,

I too feel that "mixing it up," works best. It really gives it that all around feeling... you know, "that loving feeling."

In all seriousness, the science of PE is still a mystery, and I try to advise everyone to hit it all -- in every aspect.

Hey everyone.

This is my first post here at ETP.com. I'm a regular from Thunders, but decided to also join remek's board. He's not only an inspiration, but he's a motivator and provides sound advice.

Regarding this thread: I've thought about this before. I know most people tend to focus on the sides, or chambers, as that is where most of the blood flow is. When I jelq, I mainly put most of the pressure on the sides.

But, I'm with remek on this one. I think it is good to mix it up. Now, I do a 7:3 ratio of sides to top/bottom. Also, when I do the top/bottom, I make sure to not press to hard as the nerve bundles are on the top of the shaft and I don't want to desensitize or mess them up in any way.

Thanks remek. Good to be here.

I've always just focused on the sides when jelqing, wet or dry.

But since I desperately need some girth on my unit, I thought that it would just make sense putting more pressure on the top/bottom as this would increase the width of the penis.

My suggestion is that if you want to focus pressure on the top/bottom when jelqing, then you should use the C-Grip. I forgot who told me about this grip, but it's ingenious for two reasons: 1) It helps increase the width of the penis, and 2) It avoids nerve bundle on the top of the penis shaft.

Quik,

I think it's a good idea to try another grip method. You seem to be left with an unfinished puzzle. You aren't gaining, and we don't know why. It's sort of like a crime scene murder investigation. We have to look at every piece, and find out which one leads to a clue.

About the C grip, could you describe it a little more? Is it the same thing as the "pincher grasp?"

Also, what nerve bundles are you referrining to? There are nerves all throughout the penis. I think you're talking about the dorsal nerve. The thick long nerve that runs atop the penis shaft.

Also, quick you might want to try the internal stretching that I posted in this forum. It's about four posts down. It's very intense, and Dustpan has been getting some good results from it.

Quik,
About the C grip, could you describe it a little more?

Basically, take your two hands and hold them infront of you as if you were going to take a bite out of a hamburger. Now flip your hands upside down so your palms are face up. Then, subtract your ring and pinky fingers from both hands. VOILA!

The index and middle fingers ride along the bottom of the shaft of the penis and the thumbs ride along the top of the shaft.

While I'm jelqing using this C-Grip, avoid my CS and my dorsal nerve. Plus, it focuses the pressure laterally.
