Erection Quality Supplements, Advanced Training & Stop and Starts: Ask the Experts

Big Al, of MaleEnhancementCoach.com, answers questions about supplements for erection quality, advanced training and stop & starts, in this Ask the Experts article.

If you have questions you’d like answered in an Ask the Experts article, please PM Kimberly at forum name – KMWylie – and she’ll have the experts here on PEGym get your questions answered.

Q. I want to start training and using your coaching service soon…

…but I want to focus on improving my erection quality first.  Are there any supplements I should look into for hardness?

Big Al:  Herbs like Maca and Yohimbe are good, but the latter is powerful and can have negative effects on those with high blood pressure.  L-Arginine is beneficent, and if you’re into intense resistance training and are supplementing for that, then L-Arginine/creating mixes will have a definite effect. Unless you really need the boost, I do recommend spending the first couple of weeks supplement free so as to establish a control period to evaluate from.

Q. I’ve been training on and off for a few months and now want to get more serious about my workouts and gains!…

…I was looking at your Basic Training routine but it looks pretty easy.  Is there another routine you suggest which will be more challenging?

Big Al:  If you’re able to perform over 100 reps of the jelq, then I recommend you get started on a more advanced routine- like the Jelq Free or the JP90.  Both of these don’t have the upper level volume limitations recommended in the Basic Training routine.

Q. The Stop and Starts looks like a good exercise…

…but I can only last 2-3 minutes before I pop off. Do I just stay with that exercise or is there something else I can do?

Big Al:  If you last less than 5 minutes with the standard version you can attempt the “Extreme” Stop and Starts.  This is where you perform up to 10 “stops” in order to get that very necessary temporal conditioning.  Once you can get to 10-15 minutes in this fashion, you can stay at that time but just begin cutting the stops down to 3, over time.

What is Hard Flaccid? How Do I Cure Hard Flaccid?

what is hard flaccid

what is hard flaccidHard Flaccid… it’s an oxymoron, right? Like “jumbo shrimp” or “deafening silence”. However, hard flaccid is a condition so many men are worried about. So…

What is hard flaccid?

and, perhaps more importantly,

How do I cure hard flaccid?

What is Hard Flaccid?

Normally, when a man is in the flaccid state, his penile tissue is relaxed. It feels soft and spongy. With a hard flaccid penis, as the name implies, the penis is hard, but, unlike an erection is typically smaller than the normal flaccid state. Big Al, lead trainer of MaleEnhancementCoach.com describes it as:

(Hard flaccid is) as if the smooth muscle contracts (relaxes) so hard that it collapses in upon itself. Picture what happens to a soft sponge when you dry out all of the moisture out of it and compress it as tightly as possible. That’ll give you a picture of how that works.

In addition to this harder flaccid state, symptoms can include:

  • Mild turtling of the penis
  • Loss of morning erection
  • Difficulty achieving or maintaining erections
  • Reduced erection angle
  • Difficulty urinating which may or may not be painful and may include a weaker urine flow
  • Pain or ache, at the base of the penis, after ejaculation
  • Occasionally sharp pain in the perineum
  • Slight numbness of the penis

What Causes Hard Flaccid?

Your hard flaccid condition could be caused by a variety of things. The most important thing to remember is that if the symptoms persist, it’s always smart to talk to a medical professional. Most commonly, a hard flaccid state is a negative physiologic indicator due to:

  • Traumatic injury
  • Nerve damage
  • Pelvic floor tightness, and/or
  • Overtraining.

Additionally, hard flaccid can be caused by a hormonal imbalance, specifically estrogen dominance.

How Do I Cure Hard Flaccid?

Long-time member,  aBone2pick, has some advice I just absolutely LOVE…

The very first thing I want to say is this: regardless of whether your potential hard flaccid disappears overnight or after a long period of time, it’s really not that terrible. I want you to change the way you think about hard flaccid from, “I just got cancer,” to “I have an annoying, perpetual runny nose.” Hard flaccid is extremely annoying, sometimes mildly painful, and a bit damaging to one’s self esteem, however it’s not going to ruin your sex life.

This is so true! In fact, becoming anxious about your hard flaccid (or perceived hard flaccid) state can actually make the condition worse. So, Step 1 – Relax!

Many times, with rest and recovery, hard flaccid conditions resolve themselves. The body heals and the hard flaccid condition stops. This not only includes stopping any penis exercises, but also masturbation and sexual intercourse.

Meditation and yoga have been known to help, as it relaxes the muscles. Swimming laps is an excellent exercise to not only promote blood flow around the entire body, including the penis, but also can be very relaxing and meditative.

If your hard flaccid is due to a hormonal imbalance, look first to your diet. If your diet is high in soy-based products – this includes soy-based protein drinks and bars – cut out all soy from your diet.  Soybeans have phytoestrogens. These mimic the body’s estrogen hormones. For guys, this can throw your testosterone out of balance, and lead to an estrogen dominance in males.

 

The Psychological Benefits of Having a Large Penis

penis enlargement bigger penis confidence

penis enlargement bigger penis confidencePEGym is about complete improvement of male sexual health and male enhancement. We address concerns about:

However, the largest percentage of men come to PEGym looking for one thing…

A larger dick.

Now, I’ve said it numerous times on the forums – a larger dick doesn’t automatically make you a phenomenal lover. However, it can make certain sexual positions easier to get into. But, the most important reason any man should pursue penis enlargement is for themselves. To feel good about being in their own skin.

And, along that line, the psychological benefits of having a larger penis are often more important than the physical benefits.

penis size equals confidenceWhen you feel good about how you look, you present a more confident persona to the world. It’s the reason why the beauty and fashion industries are two of the largest industries in the world. We like to look our best. And, although most of us don’t walk around naked all day, how we look under our clothes does affect our self-image.

This increased confidence is very attractive – to both men and women.

People like being around someone who is confident. It’s, in fact, one of the most desired traits in a man, from a potential mate.

But, in addition to the sexual attraction confidence creates, this extends to non-romantic relationships – including your professional relationships.

Job hunters who give off a confident air are more likely to get the job offer. Employees who exude confidence are more likely to make more money and get advancement opportunities.

Why is this? Because humans like confident people!

Think about it. If two men walk into the room. One has his head up, is smiling, shoulders back and the other won’t look you in the eye, head down and is stoop-shouldered, which guy are you most likely going to want to talk to first?

You know nothing else about these men. They could even be dressed completely alike – be identical twins even – but their demeanor, their level of confidence makes one naturally more attractive than the other.

When you feel good about yourself, this includes the physical aspects of yourself, including penis size, you’re going to feel more confident.

 

Medical Study: Effect of Penile‐Extender Device in Increasing Penile Size in Men with Shortened Penis

penis extender enlargement male enhancement

penis extender enlargement male enhancementHere at PEGym, we know one thing —

Penis extenders work!

How do we know this? More than a decade of members telling us so!  (Check out our Success Forum!) Thousands of members have reported penis enlargement gains, with penis extenders, like the Phallosan Forte.

However, one of the things we also know is male enhancement is an industry where a lot of promises are made – some from some less than scrupulous companies. So, I like to share actual medical studies (ones performed by real researchers and published in scholarly journals, not “studies” performed by companies just looking to promote their product) from time to time.

The following study was published in The Journal of Sexual Medicine. Understanding that few studies existed on the effectiveness of penis extenders on increasing penis size, this study was conducted by Doctors: Mohammadreza Nikoobakht MD, Alireza Shahnazari MD, Maedeh Rezaeidanesh MD, Abdolrasoul Mehrsai MD, and Gholamreza Pourmand MD.

Penis Extender Effectiveness Study Method

This prospective study was performed on subjects complaining about “short penis” who were presented to the authoring doctors’ clinic. After measuring the penile length in flaccid and stretched forms and penile circumference, patients were instructed to wear the penis extender for 4–6 hours per day during the first 2 weeks and then 9 hours per day until the end of the third month.

The subjects were also trained how to increase the force of the device during determined intervals. The patients were visited at the end of the first and third months, and penile length and circumference were measured and compared with the baseline measurements.

The primary end point of the study was changes in flaccid and stretched penis lengths compared with the baseline size during the 3 months follow‐up.

Penis Extender Effectiveness Study Results

Twenty-three men, with a mean age of 26.5 years old participated in the study. Here were the results:

  • First month follow-up
    • Average flaccid penis length increased from 8.8 cm to 10.1 cm
    •  Average stretched penis length increased from 11.5 cm to 12.4 cm
  • Third month follow-up
    • Average flaccid penis length increased to 10.5 cm
    • Average stretched penis length increased to 13.2 cm
  • The circumference of the penis glans increased, on average 1.5 cm at month three.

 

Penis Extender Effectiveness Study Conclusion

Given the small sample size, the researchers suggest further research. However, initial findings supported the efficacy of penis extenders in increasing penis length. Their results also suggested the possibility of glans girth enhancement using a penile extender.

Penis Extender Effectiveness Study Discussion

Phallosan Forte Package Penis Extender Male EnhancementThe key to penis extender effectiveness is wearing it consistently, for the proper amount of time. This is the primary reason men don’t get the results they want – not being able to spend 9 hours a day wearing an extender.

This is why we love the Phallosan Forte. It’s unique design makes it so comfortable and so discreet, you can wear it under regular clothing (even jeans!), and go about your day. It’s even so comfortable, many men sleep with it on!

Penis Hanging Questions: Ask the Experts

Big Al, of MaleEnhancementCoach.com, answers questions about penis hanging, in this Ask the Experts article.

If you have questions you’d like answered in an Ask the Experts article, please PM Kimberly at forum name – KMWylie – and she’ll have the experts here on PEGym get your questions

Q. I’ve been thinking of starting weight hanging…

…and would like to consider all options. What hanger do you think would be best to start with?

Big Al: Hanging offers excellent benefits- the tension is constant and can be kept up as long as is needed, and the work is “hands free”. The usual limitations will depend on your conditioning and in the type of device you use.

If you’re very new to hanging and on a budget, making your own device might be a good first step. You can view instructions for creating such a device- along with a training routine here: http://thebiohacker.com/forums/penis-devices-forum/2821-make-penis-weight-hanger-routine.html

LG Hanger Penis Hanging Device

The more traditional hanging devices like the BIB can be used with good effects, but preparation and testing for using this device are a must. One has to adapt to the wear of the device, and even in the case of moderate weights extra padding is usually required.

There’s also the newer vacuum type devices like the LG Hanger (PEGym members save $10 by using coupon code PEGYM). This device not only bypasses the limitations of other hanging devices by eliminating constriction, but it can even foster greater glans size!

Do your research and give the above some thought before you make your purchase.

Q. Hi Al, I been hanging and I notice in my training…

…when I pick up the pace towards the end of the cycle with more time and weight I seem to lose steam. I don’t want to cut back on the reps, but my EQ starts to suffer. My first few weeks go really well though. I’m training on average 4 1/2 days a week. Please advise.

Big Al: Hanging more than 4 days a week can be wearing for someone unless they’re extremely conditioned. You might try reducing the frequency of your training as follows:

Weeks 1&2: 5 days a week

Weeks 3&4: 4.5 days per week

Weeks 5&6: 4 days per week

The gradual decrease in frequency should allow you to get more recovery time.

Emotional Visualization: Ask the Experts

Big Al, of MaleEnhancementCoach.com, answers a question about emotional visualization for training, in this Ask the Experts article.

If you have questions you’d like answered in an Ask the Experts article, please PM Kimberly at forum name – KMWylie – and she’ll have the experts here on PEGym get your questions answered.

Q. I have a really hard time focusing on the emotional visualizations part of training…

…Distractions then frustration kicks in and I just lose all hardness. I get bored very easily too. Is there something I can do to make my training sessions better?

Big Al: If you want to MAXIMIZE your male enhancement training gains here’s the most essential advice:

First, your mind state- male enhancement training does NOT work well when you engage negative emotions like fear or self-loathing. The penis doesn’t operate well under negative emotional conditions. When you begin your exercises clear your mind. Sometimes picturing a field of white light can be useful. Focus solely on the tactile sensations you’re inducing. At the same time attempt to emote a feeling of confidence and being unencumbered. Inducing [at least] a neutral mind state so you can focus on emoting confidence and a feeling of being unencumbered will maximize your immediate EQ. If your mind starts to drift then take a deep breath and mentally re-center yourself.

Second, make it a goal over time to raise your EQ as high as possible- even beyond the levels needed for proficiency in sexual performance. The higher your EQ, the more tissue expansion you’ll get. At the very least you’ll need to keep increasing your EQ in the same proportion as your size gains in order to merely maintain the same level of functioning.

Third, log all of your training details so you’ll ensure regular reviews and ask questions when you have them. While I review all active standard client
journals every few weeks, I can review your journal at anytime. Keep a log also makes you accountable.
As far as boredom- remember why you’re training in the first place. Develop the mental discipline to understand that work is required for progress. Also understand that training time is “you” time. Learn to train distraction-free and love your training. If you repeat the habit often enough you’ll develop the necessary discipline to train successfully.

This is something which may take some getting used to but once you turn the corner on this procedure you’ll realize the great benefits to be had.

Intensity vs Duration & the Timing of Sexual Stamina Exercises: Ask the Experts

Big Al, of MaleEnhancementCoach.com, answers questions about intensity versus duration and why stamina exercises should be done at the end of your routine, in this Ask the Experts article.

If you have questions you’d like answered in an Ask the Experts article, please PM Kimberly at forum name – KMWylie – and she’ll have the experts here on PEGym get your questions answered.

Q. What’s the relationship between more intensity and more time under stretch?…

… Isn’t it the same as long as I perform enough reps?  What’s the difference between a hard, short stretch and a long, light one? 

Big Al: Intensity equals force, while volume equals time.  Regarding efficiency (but not necessarily effectiveness) the equation is one sided towards intensity- for example, you can get a greater total load with lighter weight and more time than you can with the inverse, but the effect on the tissues isn’t necessarily improved by doing so.  Using lighter tension requires a disproportional amount of time on order to note growth, and not everyone responds to such methods.  This is why we tend to stress higher intensity modes over higher volume- due to the efficiency and (normally)  greater rate of gains seen with higher intensity methods. That being said, neither extreme is necessarily more effective.  The typical point of maximum growth usually trends towards more but not absolute intensity.

An example: a workout where you hang for 10 minutes with 1 lb is NOT going to possess the same quality as a workout where you hang with 10 lbs for 1 minute.  An even easier example: you might be able to lift 100 lbs for 10 repetitions of an exercise, but that doesn’t mean you can lift 1000 lbs for 1 repetition.  Given the previous numbers you may be able to lift only ~120 lbs for 1 repetition.

Q. Why can’t I perform the stamina exercises when I’m fresh…

…instead of towards the end of my routine?  It seems I’d be able to do more reps of the Kegel and get more time in the Stop and Starts that way. 

Big Al: The challenges you outline are deliberate with sexual stamina exercises.  For one, it’s to be expected there’ll be difficulties in learning to perform stamina work without any stimuli beside the tactile and your emotional visualizations.  It may take a few weeks for you to adjust, but once the transition is made the changes in your abilities will be notable.

Second, the sexual stamina exercises performed at the end of the enlargement work has itself two main functions.  Because you’re pre-stretching the tissues of the penis with more traditional enlargement exercises, the stamina exercises will take on a whole new level of quality and they themselves will become more effective towards enlargement. As you can see, this format is meant to cause a type of cascade effect on purpose.

The other function is if you can train yourself to perform a successful stamina session after enlargement work, your sexual performance when your fresh will be that much more enhanced.

Motivation – Critical to Your 2017 Success

motivational quotes

motivational quotesIt’s January 3rd. Chances are, you’re still pretty gung-ho about those New Year’s resolutions.

However, next week will be harder.

And the week after that will be even harder.

Real life. Family. Work. Weather. Stress. And more will all try to entice you to give up.

So, how do you stay motivated?

One of my favorite ways to stay motivated is to read motivational quotes.  I have my favorites in frames, on my office walls. But, when I come across something new I particularly like, I’ll print it out and tack it to the wall as is. Putting new ones up, makes them more powerful – and more likely that I’ll see them.

Be sure to check out the Motivational Quotes forum thread, and add your favorite motivational quotes!

So, I thought I’d share some quotes, to get your new year started off right!

“Your journey has molded you for the greater god. It was exactly what it needed to be. Don’t think you’ve lost time. It took each and every situation you have encountered to bring you to the now. And NOW is right on time.” ~ Asha Tyson

 

If you want 2017 to be your year:

 

Don’t sit on the couch and wait for it. Go out. Make a change. Smile more. Be excited. Do new things. Throw away what you’ve been cluttering. Unfollow negative people on social media. Go to bed early. Wake up early. Be fierce. Don’t gossip. Show more gratitude. Do things that challenge you.

Be brave.

 

Mistakes are proof that you’re trying.

 

It will take time. It will require dedication. It will require willpower. You will need to make healthy decisions. It requires sacrifice.

 

You will need to push your body to its max. There will be temptation. But, I promise you, when you reach your goal…

 

…It’s worth it!

And, these two are a couple of my favorite quotes about how to live life positively, in general.

“If you can’t do anything about it, then let it go. Don’t be a prisoner to the things you can’t change.” ~ Tony Gaskins

 

The greatest pleasure in life is

doing what people say you cannot do.
