REP Support for Bathpump.com - Q & A

[Drinkmachine]

Also I would like to know where most people feel the pressure. Most of what I feel is underneath by the big vein. Is that normal? I don't really feel to much on top. Also this is my 2nd week of doing 3 reps of 5 mins every day besides 1 day a week. And in between the sets I do around 10 basic stretches and 10 rotation stretches. Counting each hand as 1. I would also like to know the 3 main length stretches that will show the most gains. And my EQ is awesome still. So I don't think I'm harming my little guy at all. Hopefully not : )

Thanks for the help

I haven't had the Bathmate for a long time (I have approx. 25 sessions under my belt) and I only occasionally pump to max. To be honest I can't really tell whether I exceed my BPEL (the scale is only really there for a guide as it depends upon the compression of the bellows) so all I'm really looking for is a good pump (whether it be low/medium/high pressure or a combination of all 3) and to gradually improve my max length in the pump whenever I pump to max pressure.

Anyone having troubles with the x30/40 xtreme hand pump? For some reason I can't get it to work in the shower-only in the bath tub. I figured it might be because of the pressure at the different angle, but after trying to mimick the bath tub angle standing the pump doesn't work for crap. The handball deflates and does not re-inflate after each pump.
ive been using the pump for about 5weeks now every other day for 10-15 min session. I feel like the results I've gotten (visually looks thicker) have come from jelqing pre bath,ate session. If I could do it all over again I would have just stuck to manual exercises.

Any help mr. Harrison? ...

Hi Harrison, I have recently purchased an x30 but am having problems with it. I was circumcised a few yrs back and have lost a lot of skin from this, when I use the bathmate, although my penis inflates girth wise it does not get anywhere nr erection length size( 7 inches).It is pulling up the skin and scotum making it painful and I have to deflate, I don't think it is liking to be stretched this way. There were no warnings this could be a problem. It simply won't pump even to my normal erect length let alone bigger. Could I just use it to extend the girth perhaps or is it a list cause ?

Thank you for your time, Jon.

Hey Jon, welcome to the Gym. Glad to have you here.

Harrison gets a lot of questions here, and probably just missed yours by accident. Do you mean it pulls the skin up from the base, along with the scrotum?

If it isn't even reaching the normal erect size, which the skin accommodates, then that probably isn't the issue. It might be seated off a bit at the base. Or, you may want to look into using a soft but somewhat tight hair tie to hold the skin in place so it doesn't pull when the pressure is applied.

I would imagine it could be used for girth alone, but the skin issue would still need to be addressed. Hope that helps Jon, and good luck!

Hey guys, anyone know what to do if the comfort pad is broken in certain spots?
I have the original Hercules. The comfort pad broke off in certain spots and it's hard to get good suction. Probably should have went with the X30. Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm not sure if replacement rings are available, but for the time being, just remove the rest of it. It's sometimes suggested to get a better seal anyway, so it should work.

Awesome. I will try that today.
I also found some websites that actually ship the comfort pads. I'll try it without the pad and see how that works first. Thanks for the help. Great product too

Hi Jon,

That doesn't sound pleasant - sorry to hear you're experiencing that. I've corresponded with plenty of circumcised users before, but have not heard of problems related to that fact. First advice - hold off. Next - when you say it's "pulling up the skin and scrotum" what exactly do you mean? The tissues do expand during BM use, but I'm trying to understand exactly how your skin is reacting. Let me know on that. I'm going to consult with some coworkers about this to get additional feedback. In the meantime, be safe. Hopefully we'll get you back on track quickly.

I got the Hercules and tried it out for the first time, not sure if I'm doing it correctly but I'm having a lot of trouble with suction.

When I initially went into it flaccid, it seemed to seal fine. Problem is, that's the only time. I was having a hard time in the shower, I would fill the water up, but it would run out of the valve quicker than I could push it down. Even when I did get it pushed down, when I would try to slide it on, I basically spilt all the water out of it. I feel this wouldn't be an issue if I could get it to suction. That hole is massive, and is basically larger than my pelvic region is. I tried Vaseline and same issue. Plus, I'm well groomed. Any other suggestions?

I'm supposed to hold the valve in while filling it up, then release it as I go to put it on correct? Seems all that does is pour water out of the valve. Should I try it actually Sittig in a bath underwater? Will that help it seal?

Hey there, Im trying to figure out how to gain length with the x30. I know the girth goes up but I never have gotten bigger then my regular erection size. I'm wondering if I'm pumping wrong but I feel the suction for sure. Another question I have is when you line the cushion up with the bellows should the measurement label be in line with the the the cushion/bellows line? Thanks

Hi drinkmachine,

You might try pressing the pump deep into your pubis to maximize the lengthening effect. Performing some manual stretches immediately before pumping will also help immensely. A set of 10 Tension Stretches after your warm up and right before your pump should do it.

The notch in the pad should face upwards and be corresponding with the bellows.

Hope that helps!

Cheers,
Harrison

Question about X30 Extreme:

Can you pump with just the hand ball pump and avoid pumping by pushing into your pelvic area like the ones without hand ball pump?

Does the hand ball pump have to be submerged in water as well? I take shower so would be nice to use it without it being submerged... just don't know.

Thanks!

Hi JR,

If you're using the XTreme model you don't have to press the pump into your pubis, though you'd get a better overall effect if you did.

The hand ball pump does not need to be submerged in water - you should be fine with the shower.

Cheers,
Harrison

Hey drinkmachine,

Most men report feeling the pressure at the base where the ligaments are or in the glans.

Using your pump in conjunction with a penis enlargement and stamina routine will give you the best results. You might want to look into the following pump routine advice for guidance (under "A question about not using the Bathmate,…") https://www.pegym.com/articles/baseline-squeeze-bathpump-routine-more-experts

Hope that helps!

Cheers,
Harrison

 

[Drinkmachine]

Thank you for getting back to me. Another question is it kinda looks like he starts half way down the shaft when doing the tension stretches and it also looks like he's pulling decently hard. Comparison on how hard you have to pull would be great. Once again I just don't want to hurt myself so that's why so many questions.

Thanks again for all the help.

Hey Harrison -- To clarify, For the Hydromax X30 Xtreme, the notch (as in the side that angles in) should face upwards correct? I've seen instructions where they say the chamfer faces towards your testicles, and some where the notches/chamfer are pointed up.

Pointing down: (from here - Bathmate Store | BATHMATE INSTRUCTIONS | How to use the Bathmate) Ensure that the chamfered area of the sealing ring is positioned against the testicle area, this reduces the pressure applied to the testicles and allows bathmate to fully seal. Position evenly around the penis and hold back the testicles to ensure comfort before compressing down the bathmate.

Can you confirm?

Thanks

Hello Harrison,

Few questions:

I've been using the Bathmate x30 for a few months, and I'm not too sure If I should look into a larger cylinder or if what I'm experiencing during use is normal.

Typically, I fill the cylinder girth wise with a little bit of wiggle room on either side. However, length wise, it's only stretching me out to about 6.5", according the the scale on the outside of the device. I've measured to see if it's accurate, and it's pretty close. Also, while pumping a large amount of water remains in the device. I'm unable to pump further than this. I'd like to see it pump me out to about 7" during use. I do see the temporary results right afterwards, which is great to look at and wish it were permanent

I feel like I'm not maximizing my potential with the x30. Or, I'm wrong and this is normal. Should I be looking into the larger options? When do you know to size up?

 

[Crazysid]

Hi, like eking83, I fill up girthwise my new bathmate, in fact after a 15min pump, when I remove the bathmate, there are well defined ridges on the base of my member where the bellows were. I pump and get length of 183 so there is length space, but not girth. My glans is virtually filling the cylinder. Is the bathmate too small? I am happy with my girth really, but want length. I have only ben using bathmate for about 3 weeks. Its A Hurcules Bathmate and just looked at the site and maybe its a bit small. will moving up to a X40 help things, I dont really want more girth .

bullseye8,

Happy to help. The simplest way to say it as that traditionally the size gauge sticker faces up - you should be able to see it. That's the opposite side of the angled pad. Some people invert and it works for them, but the standard way is sticker up.

Cheers,
Harrison
