Should I get a bathmate

**AM7797** · 03-09-2015

I don't really know what to think about penis enlargement. I definitely think that it is a real thing and that's why I doubt the naysayers. But I also know that there are companies out there who prey on peoples insecurities regarding penis size.
After my ex-girlfriend basically left me because of my size, I have finally decided that I want to make a move. After much research being done, I happened upon the bathmate. To be more specific, the bathmate hercules. What is everyones thoughts on the bathmate? Does it really work? I would appreciate honest answers from people who have either used one, or at least have an opinion on it.
And I decided on the hercules because it's the smallest one they have. I'm 5 inches length 3.5 inches girth. Pretty friggin bad, so I'm hoping the bathmate can push me in the right direction.

Don't miss this thread!!!

Mental PE - Creating The Right Mindset

And if you haven't already done so, check the links on the navigation bar at the top of the page especially the START HERE Thread and focus on safety, you only have one penis, take good care of it.

Before buying a Bathmate, pick one of the manual beginner routines and follow it for at least 90 days to condition your penis, or until you stop gaining. Most members here choose JP90, it is an intense routine, start slow, and build up to the full routine over a few weeks time, jelq with an erection level between 45% and 65% using a moderate grip, just enough to move blood up the shaft and to the glans.

Pay attention to your PIs, your penis is trying to tell you if you are over working, or you are in the growth zone, aim for positive PIs, and steer away from the negative ones.

Hey! I'm new to this as well but from my knowledge & for your size, i would go for the X30 Extreme! Not sure about length increase but gives temporary Girth gains - hopefully longterm too! UNLEASH THE BEAST!

Good luck!!

Is there any particular reason I should choose the X30 over the hercules? Are there any substantial differences between the two?
From what I understand, the hercules is a good one to start out with if you are small, which I definitely am. And the X30 is like $50 more. Don't get me wrong; I'm no cheap ass, especially when it comes to my wang! But what makes the X30 a better choice?
And yeah, as for the whole length thing i don't really care all that much. I mean I wouldn't mind gaining maybe an inch in length, but it's my girth that's bad. girth matters to girls and mine is pretty damn low. By some miracle, I'd love to gain 1.5 inches in girth.

Welcome to the gym!
I agree w/ Mr.B8, before you buy any devices, condition your penis. You've only got one, so take care of it! Safety first is our mantra here at the gym, so if you care enough to try PE, read beginner threads, study and learn the terminology used on the site and be patient. Like Rome, your dick won't get built in a day either. Avoid injury by taking advice from the members here, we're here to help.

I just wanted to know if the bathmate works!
I appreciate that you're "here to help." I've read beginners threads in the past. I've tried jelqing and didn't really like it. Zero results and I didn't like the feel.
Are you suggesting that using a bathmate would cause injury?
I intended to do a warm up with stretching before using it every time. And while inside of the bathmate I was going to do kegels. Let me know your thoughts.

Hi man! I would definetely recommend the X30 over the Hercules.

From what I've read they're both good devices, but perhaps the main benefit with the X30 is that it provides a stronger suction over the hercules. If you prefer you can also use it without the comfort ring (after you used the device for a couple of months), which in turn gives added suction power. They are both the same in size. So in my opinion it would be a waste of money to start out with the hercules and later on upgrade to the x30. Just be sure to settle on a good bathmate start-up routine.

I just started out with PE myself, and did A LOT of research on the Bathmate before deciding to go with the X30. It's supposed to be a really functional girth tool, which is what you need! Check out Chris' (a.k.a. Good Looking Loser) channel on the Bathmate here:

He's somewhat of an authority on the Bathmate and gives a lot of usefull information about the BM devices.

Hey AM!

Welcome to the Gym.

The Bathmate is a good product. However, it limits it's use primarily to the bathroom. If this is not an issue, go for it. However, I do a lot of pumping in bed and also rely heavily on specific vacuum levels for different routines. In this regard, the Bathmate is not practicle.

Yep, if you lived in a shared house it might be more difficult. Since i got my bathmate i spend at least 30 mins perhaps more,almost every evening in the bathroom but i do live alone! Always warm up 5 minutes in nice hot water , simple!

Foxen is right, you get way better suction with hand pump so i would go for X30 Extreme and yes you will get girth! Unleash the beast!

Thank you to everyone who responded. I Live with my father at the moment, but we literally live in different buildings. It's like I have my own house, so the privacy that I'll need is not an issue.
I'm still open to bumping up to the X30 Extreme, but I'm gonna do some more research on it. I'm sure it's a great product and all, but it's a lot of money to drop on something that still isn't exactly proven to me yet.
