So quick question. I know everyone's different but do you want to be 100% hard clamped the whole way through? I ask because my first to sets im 105% hard , then my next 2 sets I'm not as hard but get the .5 expansion.

Thanks

An inch and 1/2 deeper than before
Personally, I find the best results at somewhere between 70 to 80% erect.

I don't think it's good to clamp fully erect.

As a person progresses clamping they should seek that slight burning stretch feelings?

I ive always been able to get good expansion but only once hand clamping I felt the slight burning stretch

You should feel some sort of being worked for sure. A slight burning sensation is good, real pain is not

So I get descent expansion but while still erect and pointing up from a sitting position with nothing obstructing it from dropping im still not very firm .

Is that OK or do you want it to be fairly firm ?

Opinions vary on this, just be careful and you should be OK.

If you're getting good expansion then it's working. I prefer to be almost hard

Read about a guy who's clamped for years with thumb turn hose clamps . In response to the questions about how dangerous it could be he stated he wraps in a way that he could remove the wrap from under the clamp aswell as keep metal snips close by . Also said he's never once had anything happen.

He talked alot about how much he hated cable clamps and the advantages of being able to make micro adjustments with the thumb turn.

Mostly likely because I'm being cautious, but I never feel worked or sore . 5min sets , probably 80% hard but also swoll' , not sure whether to and a minute to each set or increase tightness of clamp ... seems like easing into cold water

Do not trap old blood in your penis for more then 10 minutes. Deep Vain Thrombosis is nothing to joke about. Blood clots forming inside your vains. When they dislodge you will be sorrry.

I get edema pretty bad while pumping. With a water pump your guessing pressures and dealing with the water 8n or out of the tub was annoying...plus no gains

Definitely liking learning the clamp . Going very slow

Nah! You have a gauge on your pump.
Always use a vaccum pump with a gauge. Gains will be faster with water pumping.

0.5 Inch EG increase within ~4 months are possible.
At least it will be done and completely cemented within 6 months.

But do you really need clamping, when water pumping exist?
Yes, if girth is the goal, they compliment each other.

It doesn't mean you "have to" do it but they do go nicely together.

Just my opinion, not saying you are wrong

Seems like clamping then pumping is the best way
