TOPIC: Newbie Sli, Under Pressure - contains NSFW pics.

BDB: When you start back up, do you get bruising that is will go away with a little massage.

BDB & Sli: How's your blood pressure?

Yes, when i start back up i get those red/blue dots, idk never really massaged i will try tho.
I actually was fine pumping, ive been pretty strictly for like 2 years now never had this problem, but the moment i took time off it seems like i hit a reset button on my cock and those 2 years of intense pumping went to the toilet.
it evens happens with little pressure/ no boner, as soon as I start pumping (really lightly) and for less than 5 minutes, they start to show.
I think is a "shock to the cock" ( i liked that term) but in the wrong direction, i think if you go from intense pumping, to all of the sudden do nothing , it can have an effect on your cock.
Thats why if i ever go back to pumping hard i WILL NOT stop pumping too abruptly, if i can, ill problably never stop pumping, i will instead do light pumps, not even with a boner, just to keep constant pressure on my cock.

As for the Blood pressure, i really dont know, it cant be that bad, im still in my early 20s, but to be sure i will get that cheked out soon.

Yeah, when I go for a period of time without doing the Bathmate, I reset downwards. 8 minutes, light pump.

The reason I ask is that my blood pressure is lower than it used to be and I don't seem to have problems with temporary bruising anymore. It might turn an interesting shade of blue, but with the slightest massage, it goes away.

I think we may be on to something regarding time off. I literally was on this like crazy, 6 or 7 days a week since Dec. The first multiple day break...I get meat grinder dick. Yesterday I was doing a 6*3 session. For the last 6 mins I decided to grab the Extreme instead of the X30 I had done the 2 first rep's with. I pumped like crazy, I think I may have been 7.25" in the tube, crazy intense pump. No discolouration. I'm going to figure all of this out, but it's definitely a short term thing that is visually scary.

I tried Amlactin cream, it didn't do shit. My dick is now darker in the mid shaft section (like Chris). My wife doesn't give a fuck, the women we fuck and have been with don't give a fuck...so I don't give a fuck

I like your attitude! Guys get all scared when their dick changes colour but i think it just adds to freakiness. It looks awesome and scary to a woman at the same time. In the end who gives a fuck right?

I've been steadily at the BM since I last posted. Minimum of 20 minutes a day. Some days I may do 2*20 min sessions.

I've been able to go back to the Extreme. There has been no violent discolouration while in the BM so I use either or the X30 or the X30 extreme. I maintain my pump for most of the day now, and if I wear a large cock ring, it can last 12 hours or so. Regardless, when I am out of the BM for more than 24 hours, most if not all of the expansion is gone.

3 pics from the last couple days. The X30 Extreme, showing that I am completely filling the BM width wise, same as pic 2 - filling the X30 width wise. In both cases I am extended to 7" in length. Last pic is a girth measurement after using the Extreme and just shy of 7" girth - the pic is about 2 hours out of the BM.

Sli, What is your routine? Do you jelq, stretch? or are you just using the bath mate? I read one of your post stating that you haven't gained anything at all after 6 months?

What is your status? What were your start measurements from the beginning and now?

To start with, I'm still at it. Pumping pretty much daily. No major changes. I fill the BM and pump to 7" on the gauge.

My routine is basically a 25 minutes session with the Bathmate Extreme. I had to take a couple of weeks off due to some weird discolouration, but been at it steady since then. I pump 5-6 days a week. My routine is either a straight 25 minute session - sometimes it is broken up into 2 'refills' or sometimes i go straight through. At this point the only discomfort I get is toward the end of the session when I am fully expanded/filling the tube and my dick is rubbing against the inside of the BM. I don't use the comfort pad, and I don't even notice the gaiter/gaiter bite. I am considering the X40 Extreme just due to the discomfort of my dick smashing against the side of the BM when fully expanded.

I do not stretch or jelq. I wanted to see if the claims of the manufacturer are true, and if you could gain anything permanent from just using the BM. So far there is no noticeable changes when I don't use the BM for over 24 hours. Now read what I said - out of the BM for OVER 24 hours. My post pump girth slowly reduces after I pump for over a day. Example - I have a session at 7am and have flaccid girth of about 7". By noon that is around 6.5" and that hangs around most of the day. By the time I turn in for bed, I'm still over 6". The next morning I am usually between 5.75" and 6", I have a session and it all starts over. The permanent gains 'hanging on' all day started a few months in, I think around February (I started in December) .

If I am out of the BM for over 24 hours, my EG is the same as it was in December 2015 - 5.5". I have never done any PE prior to trying this. I am in it for the long haul, and plan to keep on going to see if anything changes permanently.

Hey what's up Sli, been following this thread since January and it sucks you have put all this time in and nothing has stuck around yet. I have read a lot of these "theories" online and a lot of them seem like nothing that will help but I did come across one that seems to be somewhat legit. The TGC (Tissue Growth Clues) Theory. You can find the theory explained in greater detail on pegym.com, but basically guys can fall into two categories based on the "clues" your penis is giving you.

Category 1:
If your BPFSL is within 0.5 inches of your BPEL, your tunica is what is holding you back and need to do more length exercises than girth.

Category 2:
If your BPFSL is more than 0.5 inches of your BPEL, then you have less smooth muscle tissue and need to do more girth work then length work.

I know this all just theory but have you considered adding an extender to your routine? Your tunica may be the thing that is holding you back on making gains.

Other than that, you must have crazy good EQ having been using this device for that long though right? You pump with full boner all the time right? Is that post pump mostly tissue expansion or is most fluid buildup? Still pretty impressive.

Personally I've used the bath-mate since the end of 2014 I used it for a year straight without doing any other exercises besides doing 30 seconds stretches in all directions before doing a 15-20 minute bath mate session. I can clarify that I haven't gained anything special. I may have gained .1 - .3 in length and maybe .1 - .3 in girth tops but it really doesn't seem so. I don't measure or really keep track either. I recently started a new routine to so if i can break through and actually get some better gains so we'll see how this goes. I now do stretches, flaccid bends, jelqing, ulis (every other session), and then a 20 minute bath mate session broken down into two 10 minute sessions with a 1 minute break in-between.

Sli,

How often do you typically masturbate/have sex/cum in a week while using the bathmate? You have great temp girth gains but there seems to be a debate whether cumming hinders gains? I suppose there's no definitive answer given each person's experience is different but it's worth asking. I'm not sure if cutting down on cumming a week will produce greater bathmate girth gains. I'd have to test that theory out but just curious of your experience since you started using the bathmate
