How much to pump?

**jrwb** · 08-01-2019

Hi there guys, a little input here would be welcome. I have a modestly priced penis pump and of course it has no gauge. I pump up my penis as far as it will go and I've been doing this for more than a year and never had any blisters or pain or any problem whatsoever, and i usually keep it there at maximum for about thirty minutes. how come everybody says you must have a gauge and not pump it too much and not stay in there too long and all the rest of it? Am I missing something?

Congratulations. Apparently, you are able to feel/sense when the vacuum level reaches an unsafe level or your pump is limited to safe levels and you do not get caught up in the urge to go higher. Some guys just can’t resist the urge to try higher vacuum levels.

What kind of results have you achieved?

Yea, I don't have a gauge on my bathmate and decided just to continue pumping to the max. Didn't feel any pain, but over time started having some edema around my pubic area which made my dick look smaller until I let it settle.

It's excessive edema that you need to worry about at the higher vacuum levels. If your not not having any problems with edema you should be OK.

Hey, so Pumping can be really great when it comes to wanting some girth and even some length for certain periods of time after a pumping session. It really does help to have gauge when pumping as it gets down to the exact kpa and also can help with knowing when enough is enough so that you dont hurt yourself in the long run. It does sound like you have a good routine going. Have you seen any long term gains?

Can i ask this here:

If i use air pump in the morning, lets say one continuous 20min session. Can i use bathmate or air pump 20mins in the evening again? Yes i know that bathmate manufacturer says that only 20mins a day but i was just wondering if it's still not too much to take two sessions during the day?

For the past two weeks i have been using my bathmate twice a day for 30 minute sessions. My dick has never looked so fat but it only last for so long. The only problem i get from pumping twice a day is that i get more bruising but I do dragon rolls immediately after in a hot shower and then but on arnica gel to reverse some bruising.

I cant speak for the air pump but its the same principle. If you feel to much pain or bruise too much then try breaking it up or doing shorter sessions

Hey OP check out the pumping groupi added a couple photo’s. Contriction bands to help with Edema for my long pumping session. Helps some, especially if you leave them on for a few minutes afterwards. Good luck.

Probably a bit of girth and length, but not sure as I have not really measured. Thanks for all the replies - appreciated.

Everyone is different and has different tolerance and recovery times. It’s best to use a pump that has a pressure gauge. Even better an automatic penis pump with digital display and auto modes to regulate pressure. If your new I would start with one session per day and then experiment with two session per day and see how you feel. The main mistake of most guys is over pumping with too much pressure not over pumping with too much time.
