How to Use the Bathmate Penis Pump

Bathmate Penis Pump Instructions

We talk about the benefits of getting a Bathmate penis pump quite a bit here at PEGym. We do that for one primary reason —

It works!

If you’ve never used a water-assisted penis pump, it can seem a little intimidating. However, one of the great things about the Bathmate is it is SUPER easy to use!

Keep reading to learn how to use the Bathmate penis pump.

Bathmate Penis Pump Instructions

Step 1: Warm Up

Warming up is one of the most important components of any penis exercise routine. (Read more here: Warming Up the Penis Before Exercising).  When using the Bathmate, warming up is as easy as getting into the shower or bath!

Step 2: Fill the Bathmate with Water

Press in the pressure valve on the Bathmate. Keeping your finger over the valve, fill your Bathmate with warm water from your shower or bathtub.

Step 3: Place Your Penis in the Bathmate

Place your penis inside the Bathmate, in the warm water. You don’t have to be erect. The most important thing is to make sure the comfort pad forms a seal between your pubic area and the Bathmate.

Step 4: Pump the Bathmate

Push the Bathmate toward your pubic area. Water will be expelled through the valve and a vacuum created. This vacuum will draw your penis into the Bathmate, as well as draw blood into your penis, causing an erection.

Step 5: Leave on for 15 Minutes

If needed, you can pump the Bathmate again, to create more vacuum. Then leave the Bathmate on for 15 minutes, or for the time length dictated in your penis exercise routine. Holding the Bathmate with one hand, go ahead and complete your normal bathing routine, while the Bathmate does all of the work for you!

Step 6: Remove the Bathmate

Compress the main valve at the end of the Bathmate to release the vacuum inside the pump. You can then safely remove the Bathmate from your penis.

Optional: Use a Shower Strap

Using the optional shower strap (The shower strap comes standard in all Xtreme models!) allows you to have a hands-free pumping session. Simply pump the Bathmate and allow the shower strap to hold your pump in place, while you go about your normal bathing routine.

 

Penis Extenders Are More Effective than Surgery

Penis Extenders Are More Effective than Surgery

Penis Extenders Are More Effective than SurgeryA longer, thicker penis is a goal for tens of thousands of men. When looking at options, surgery is often a consideration. However, when comparing the results achieved by surgery, coupled by the risks associated with surgery, it becomes clear that penis extenders are far more effective than surgery.

Surgical penis enlargement for length typically involves severing the suspensory ligament at the pubic bone. This allows the inner penile tissue to slip forward. For girth, surgical enlargement usually involves grafting material under the penile skin. Penile lengthening surgery usually results in a 1/2-inch to 2-inch gain in length,  Girth enlargement surgery can result in a 25% to 35% increase in girth. However, despite these results, there is significant risks involved in these surgeries.

For penis lengthening surgery, loss of erection angle, sometimes to the point that vaginal insertion becomes an issue, is a significant concern. Matrix for girth enhancement can be rejected by the body. With both surgeries, complications, such as infection, nerve damage, erectile problems, and more are all possibilities, as well as general surgical risks – like the dangers associated with anesthesia. To add to these risks, the financial cost of these surgeries can be thousands, if not tens of thousands, of dollars.

Penile extenders, in contrast, offer both safe and effective penis enlargement, at a fraction of the cost. Numerous studies have been published proving traction devices, like penis extenders, will increase penile length and girth, when used correctly and consistently. In addition, these devices can help correct penile curvature (Peyronie’s disease).  You get the penis enlargement results you want, without all of the risks associated with surgery.

There are several good quality penis extenders on the market today.

  • Phallosan Forte Package Penis Extender Male EnhancementPhallosan Forte – The Phallosan is one of the most comfortable extenders on the market today. Using vacuum technology, you can wear the Phallosan all day long, getting you to your enlargement results faster than ever before.

The Advantages of Pulse Penis Pumping

penis pump

penis pumpThis great article on pulse pumping is written by one of our Super Moderators – not2big. not2big has helped thousands of men over the last six years at PEGym. Thanks, not2big, for your contribution!

There are two basic ways to pump your penis – static or dynamic pumping. not2big discusses the differences between static and dynamic (pulse) pumping. He then explains the benefits of pulse pumping.

Static Penis Pumping

Static penis pumping involves pumping up to a specific vacuum level and leaving it there for the duration of the session. The most recommended vacuum level is between 4 and 5 inches of mercury (hg). The recommended maximum duration of a session to avoid excess edema is 20 minutes for an experienced pumper.

During the session, the vacuum causes excess blood to flow into the penile chambers and, to a lesser extent, causes lymph fluid and interstitial fluid to slowly build up around the individual cells of the penis tissue known as edema. Edema is a natural reaction to the differential in internal and external pressure caused by the vacuum and is not harmful unless the build up becomes excessive. Excess edema generates puffiness and in extreme cases, bruising.bruising and possibly blisters.

As these fluids build up, the overall volume of the penis increases. As the size of the penis expands it displaces the air inside the vacuum cylinder thus causing the vacuum level to decrease. Accordingly, additional air needs to be pumped out occasionally in order to maintain the vacuum at the desired level (ex, 5 hg).

Dynamic Penis Pumping

Dynamic penis pumping, otherwise known as pulse pumping, involves the same theory as static pumping; however, instead of leaving the vacuum at a constant level throughout the session, it involves periodically changing from a high level (ex 5 hg) to a low level (ex 2 hg). I personally recommend pumping up to 5 hg for five minutes and then lowering the vacuum to 2 hg to thirty seconds. The cycle should be repeated two more time during the session.

Benefits of Pulse Pumping Over Static Pumping

One of the benefits pulse pumping has over dynamic pumping is that it generates more penile engorgement than static pumping over the same time frame.
.
In an experiment conducted by another PE web site A control pumper quickly pumped up to 5 hg and maintained the vacuum level at 5 hg for the entire session.

The pulse pumper slowly increased the vacuum to 5 hg and left it there for five minutes and then reduced to 1 hg for thirty seconds before returning to 5 hg for another five minutes and repeated the process throughout the session.

Using precisely measured water in both cylinders the results showed that the pulse pumper had a 33% greater increase in volume.

This fluid flow and gain process that creates enlargement is restricted by the pumping operation itself, in these three ways:

  • As swelling takes place, tissues are engorged- including those of the passageways bringing fluid in, actually reducing the diameters of those passageways.
  • There is a pinching pressure attempting to close these passageways right at the point where the cylinder entry meets your body. The passageways are part of the tissue being compressed by the sealing surface of the tube.
  • It is further complicated by another easily demonstrated process, that of “vacuum collapse”. Take a soft tube, and connect it to your vac pump. With an open end, it will suck indefinitely. Now squeeze the tube down in the middle. As the opening gets narrower, two things happen. One, the flow through the restriction reduces- and two, the vac level on the restricted portion increases. There comes a point where the internal vacuum itself pulls the tube closed- and all flow stops.

All of these conditions combine to either restrict or stop the process of enlargement. The longer the condition lasts, the tighter the restriction can get- and thereby further reducing the level of effectiveness, ultimately ending effective time altogether. The issue is one of making all the time in the pump effective time, and maximizing the level of that effectiveness.

Another important aspect of pulse pumping is that it mimics the natural process your penis goes through every night that we refer to as night wood. Accordingly, pulse pumping has a healthy aspect to it that static pumping lacks. In this connection it may benefit those suffering from low EQ or ED.

TLC Tugger DiscountUsing the TLC Tuggers are incredibly simple!

  • Place the tugger piece (white) against your glans
  • Roll some shaft skin up onto the body of the tugger
  • Retain the rolled-up skin with the clear Your-Skin Cone
  • Apply tension to the handle with the included ComforTug™ strap or your choice of weights, extender rig, etc.

Here’s a great video, showing how quickly and easily the Tuggers go on:

All TLC Tuggers are comfortable All Day Stretchers (ADS). TLC recommends using the 4-Hour Rule to fine-tune the tension with any method. But since PE guys tend to also do sessions with more tension for shorter intervals than restorers do, it often becomes a 2-Hour or even a 20-Minute rule for those PE modes.

TLC Tuggers can even be used with a penis extender:

Which is Better – A Penis Extender or Penis Pump?

penis pump vs penis extender

penis pump vs penis extenderIn addition manual exercises to reach your male enhancement goals, there are several devices on the market. Two of the most prominent categories of devices are penis extenders and penis pumps. For that reason, one of the more common questions we receive is — Which is better – A penis extender or a penis pump?

Our answer is —

It depends.

How Penis Extenders and Penis Pumps Work

First, it’s helpful to understand the basic mechanics behind how penis extenders and penis pumps work. Penis extenders are a traction device. They hold the penis in a stretched state for hours at a time. Penis pumps, on the other hand, use vacuum to expand the penile tissues. Often, pumping sessions are measured in minutes, rather than hours.

You can read in detail about how penis extenders work in our comprehensive article here — What Are Penis Extenders? How to Build a Bigger Penis

You can also learn more details on how penis pumps work in our comprehensive article here – What Are Penis Pumps? How to Build a Bigger & Harder Penis

Your Male Enhancement Goals vs. Getting a Penis Extender or a Penis Pump

Because how extenders and pumps work are so different, your male enhancement goals may be better served by one or the other. If you’re looking for penis length enlargement, a penis extender is a scientifically proven device to get you to your length goals. Increases in girth will also follow, but because of the directional stretching, length increases is what most men see first.

On the other hand, if you’re more concerned about girth, a penis pump’s full expansion outward of the penile tissues is a great girth enhancement device, when used consistently. Length increases do also occur, but again, the directionality of the force often sees girth increases first.

If erection quality is a male enhancement goal, a penis pump will help you see immediate result. Because of the vacuum, blood is forced into the penis, as those tissues are expanded. This means most men see an erection that is not only immediately larger, but also significantly harder than normal, with the first use. In fact, the use of a penis pump, in conjunction with a cock ring, is a medically approved erectile dysfunction treatment, helping thousands of men have a satisfying sex life! Continued use helps cement these changes. An extender will also help improve erection hardness, through the continued exercise of the penis, but not as noticeably as quickly as a penis pump.

Time and Cost of Penis Extenders vs Penis Pumps

As mentioned earlier, penis extenders are often worn for extended periods of time, to maximize the benefits. Extenders like the Phallosan Forte can be comfortably worn throughout the day, under your clothing. This allows you to get to your enlargement goals much quicker than if you were only to use the extender for short periods of time.

Penis pumps aren’t used all day. In fact, pumps like the Bathmate can be used in the bath or shower, allowing you to pump, while you go about your normal bathing routine. Penis pumps are perfect if you have limited time available, and are unable to wear an extender through the course of your day.

Cost, of course, for many is a big factor. The good news is there are penis extenders and penis pumps to fit every budget.  Here are some cost breakdowns:

What Are Penis Pumps? How to Build a Bigger & Harder Penis

Recently, we had the opportunity to interview one gentleman, Peter, who is a true pump-a-holic. He pumps for multiple hours a day and has had lots of experience getting the size results so many men want.

KIMBERLY: How long have you been pumping?

PETER: I started pumping in 1987, but had no idea what to do. I pumped much too fast and ended up with a distorted and disfigured cock which was impossible to Masturbate. Bad start.

I started reading up about it and found that there was a large contingency of literature on how to go about (pumping) safely and efficiently. As I was living in California at the time, I had access to clubs and gay men’s hangouts where there was a wealth of information. Although I am not gay, I found this area to be the best for tips on what to do.

KIMBERLY: What prompted you to begin pumping?

PETER: As far back as I can remember after my first erection at age 9, I have been fascinated in the reaction that the outline of my cock has on others : male, female and transsexual. For this reason, I have sought ways to increase the girth at first, and since, the length.

KIMBERLY: Since you started pumping, what benefits have you noticed (size increases, increased stamina, etc.)?

PETER:  The obvious one is that of increased size and girth. I don’t know if I can call this a ‘benefit’, but it is certainly fascinating.

KIMBERLY: What other male enhancement products have you tried, besides pumping?

PETER: I have tried the JES Extender, which basically stretches the body of the penis, initially to extend the part which is within the body and then by allowing more blood to enter the Penis by increasing the size of its internal ‘pockets’. I found hanging weights from my cock much more fun and just as efficient. I have been (hanging) for decades.

Jelqing is another technique which I have found efficient to maintain length after a pump session. I often find though, that I achieve an erection, which I don’t particularly want, so I have not used this method very often.

KIMBERLY: Have you tried supplements? 

PETER: As far as pills are concerned , the only ones I take in connection with cock enhancement, are Kamagra, Yohimbi, Horny Goatweed, Zinc and Saw Palmetto. All of these enhance blood flow to the penis and, in the case of Kamagra help with achieving long lasting erections. The longest I have had is 4 hours.

KIMBERLY: What advice would you like to give to men who are new to pumping or considering giving pumping a try?

PETER: Take it slowly. Life is long. Eat healthily. Don’t take chemical drugs. Don’t drink alcohol. Don’t smoke. Masturbate/have sex to orgasm once or twice per week.

Conclusion

Those are some pretty wise words at the end.  Take it slowly. Pumping is a really effective way to get longer and thicker, with harder erections. However, never overdo it. Like any exercise for any part of the body, start slowly and you’ll get the results you want.
