Anyone tried soft clamping with success?
Soft meaning using toe shields. I got crazy expansion doing so yesterday and was very excited since I havent been able to consistently get a good hard clamp . But doing research it does seem like many claim to have gained .

I just started a few months ago.

I think it is helping even out my growth distribution. I use 8 or so toe shields, layered so the end just below mid shaft.

What kind of routine?

I was thinking doing 2-5min sets of soft clamping and 2-5min sets of pumping 5-7hg , with maybe a manual squeeze in the beginning

I'm using soft clamping as my cool down before bed.

Daily routine goes like this

  • Shock load warm up with a 5-7 minute bathmate session in as hot as I can draw the bath.
  • 9-11 hours ADS work
  • Bathmate on girth days (I do ADS everyday and Girth 2 on 1 off) at night after my ADS work. 7 sets of 3 minutes or 10 sets of 2 minutes or sometimes 20 sets of 30 seconds. The hand pump on the extreme has given my fore arms quit the workout as well haha
  • Soft Clamping as a cool down on girth days, which has replaced jelqing. 2 sets of 5-7 minutes.
I will be replacing toe shield clamping with Magnum Rings when I decide to order them though. They look to be an improvement.

That looks like alot .

Right now I'm doing 2handed squeezes, 3x5mins soft clamping, and just got my electric pump in the mail yesterday.

I did see that a guy hurt himself with those magnum rings.

Respectfully, we feel he was overly aggressive with PE routine which caused a temporary issue. We have sold thousands of Magnum Rings and never had problems with customers hurting themselves. Please don't spread rumors on misinformation. Better yet, maybe you should apply for a job with the Harris campaign :)

Definitely wasn't spreading rumor . This community is a type of brotherhood and was just looking out. Keep it professional.

You can use a hard clamp or a cut off pice off silicone sleeve. Clamping is clamping. Both can provide a lower amount of force or enough force to cut your blood off.

If by soft clamping, you mean less pressure with soft items such as cock rings or the piece of sleeve, sure, it can be an amazing add on to your sessions or even be the entirety of your sessions.

I like to soft clamp after a short set of pumping. Get the blood pumped in and then go to soft clamping to stay engorged and avoid edema.

Many ways to clamp, and for the most part, they are all very effective.

If a guy hurt himself with the Magnum rings, it was the fault of the operator, not the equipment.

Magnum Rings can only cause harm in the hands of an idiot or someone without the experience and conditioning required.

I just haven't got the hang of hard clamping yet and soft clamping using toe shields with the ends cut off seems amazing as of now. Thanks

I am product testing some stuff for F'kn Mint Sleeves to help with his R&D (owner is WAAAY cool). He is making his own toe shields for soft clamping. He sent me a first set, but the material was too stiff to fit around my base girth and so he is sending me some with softer material. The goal being to not need so many toe shields to achieve the desired result, making it a little safer and more convenient (taking of 8-10 toe shields quickly if you experience pain can be a hassle and scary).

If they are an improvement on the traditional toe shield off amazon I will report back to you.

I've also been looking into "biohacking" methods to improve my health, which sounds pretty new.
