Hey!
So I've been doing pe for a little while now, going through the JP90 routine. I've opted for a 2 on, and one off split. My goal in pe is primarily girth, as I'm below average in that area, and my understanding is that supplementing a pe routine with a bathmate can be a good way to increase girth gains.
So my penis is at the 6inch length and a little over 4 inch circumference size, and I'm wondering if I should get the hydromax x30? It seems like that is the one for me, but I wanted to ask before I go ahead and make a purchase.
Also, I'm not sure if there has been discussion about this on the forums, but how to people usually use a bathmate in conjunction with a routine? I was thinking I could use it as a warm up, or alternatively to me routine in the morning, and use the bathmate at night in the shower (I shower at nights mostly because my job leaves me in great need of a shower).
Anyways, I'd love to hear back on all this. Thanks!
Edit: As a supplement to this question since it hasn't been answered yet I have since originally writing this read a lot about guys getting their balls sucked up into the pump. Is this a common thing? I kind of think of myself as likely being on the "slow and steady wins the race" side of the typical users method of operation. I'd like to think that my gentler approach to the process might help me avoid the sorts of pains that others have experienced, but are there tried and tested ways to avoid these roadblocks along the way? Also what sort of things are the typical problems people encounter, and how can they best be avoided?
I'd really love someone with some experience to chime in on that.
Hello FrenchOnionSoup,
Happy New Year! I hope you achieve all of your goals that you have set forth in 2015!
The Hydyomax X30 is a great selection, it will be a perfect fit for your size.
In terms of people using the pump in conjunction with their routine, I have seen multiple different routines of people using their pump during, pre-workout and cool down. I am currently using my pump as a warm up.
My recommendation would be, if you have never used a pump before to just use the Hydromax X30 for the first 4 weeks by itself (depending on your conditioning, since you mentioned the JP90, I am assuming you may not have much experience with devices) afterwards I would do what fits best with your lifestyle. If you don't take showers/baths in the morning but you do your workouts in the morning then I would agree with you there is nothing wrong with using your pump at night in the shower.
I have unfortunately have been reading about a few guys experiencing the same problem on the forums as well, it is not a common issue at all but it does happen. Most have found that it is truly just user error, you want to make sure that the pump is positioned properly on your body. This will stop the balls from being involved at all.
Yes the "slow and steady" approach is an excellent idea, just as doing normal manual exercises you never want to feel pain. If using the Bathpump you feel pain then that means there is too much pressure.
One other common road block would be - some people have trouble getting proper suction. This is normally caused by excess pubic hair. It is recommended to trim the hair around the penis.
If you have any other questions please feel free to ask! I look forward to seeing your progress.
