Hercules model. Seemed to fit and work well. I felt a little pain under my penis, between the shaft and balls, but nothing too worrisome yet.

Felt good. my flaccid was definitely thicker.

I'll update as the weeks pass. Going to try to use it 5 times a week.

Also on cycles of Tongkat Ali, which, in the past, really helped me with muscle gains while working out. We'll see how it this pans out.

Got up past 180.

Ok, this was working better than I could've asked for. Just for the gain in performance from this thing, It's awesome, even without size gain. On just the 4th day of use, the girth of my penis was starting to touch bulge up against the tube. And my flaccid would be fully for 12 hours.

This is going to sound painful, but I hope someone has the an answer.

But it began to tug on my right ball sack. Like, pulling my sack toward the pump either simply with the skin, or pulling up some plumbing. I'd pump, and then my right testicle would retract slightly. I'd pump again, and it'd move up slightly again. eventually, being pulled right up to where the pump makes contact with my body. And that shit hurt and I stopped immediately. I tried again, and the same thing began to happen so I stopped.

Anyone have experience with this? or pumping in general?

OK, so, here is an update.

The first few days were awesome. Like I said above, I'd recommend this just because it makes erections stronger and feel better. I was getting boners like a 13 year old, just sitting around and seeing something semi-attractive would start to get me hard almost instantly.

Not sure if this is just a placebo or not, but still.

Anyway, the first 2 days I pumped, I was getting to 180.

On the 3rd day, I managed to get up to 190, where I've been since that day. After that 3rd day, my erections feel fuller and harder. They last longer, feel better, I have more control over my orgasms. But on the 4th day, I had the problem I mentioned above.

I used an ACE bandage to hold my balls in place, though, and that worked out perfectly.

Of the 7 days of use, I took 2 off. My penis got some discoloration, and I got a donut effect yesterday, which I didn't like.

Everything I read says that the first time using pumps and the bathmate are always very encouraging, but it all plateaus, which I can already tell will happen, as it doesn't feel as good as it did the first few days. But it still feels awesome.

The thing is, when I pump, get out of shower, and look in the mirror, I'm in awe. It doesn't even look like it shout be attached to me. I'm usually small while flaccid, and after I pump, my flaccid penis looks like a monster. It's an addictive view I just stare at it while jelqing.

I'm taking a few days off, because of the discoloration and the skin seeming weird from the donut effect. But here are some things that I noticed were helpful.

Diet and exercise, of course. On my lazy days, I never got as good of a pump.

Weed. It increases blood pressure, and makes everything feel more awesome. Whenever I smoked and pumped (twice so far) my girth filled the tube. This hasn't happened otherwise. Not sure if this was just coincidence or not, though.



I'll update when I've been using it for a month.

I took 2 days off, because of a bit of skin scabbing. It heals, but when I pumped for like, 4 minutes, I got a lot of discoloration.

I'm going to use a heating pad and take a week off, give it more recovery time.

I would normally pump for about 5 minutes, jelq for a minute or 2, then pump again, and alternate like that. The most recent discoloration was severe and scared the shit out of me, so I'm going to rest. I'm hoping my penis will adapt and the discoloration is just an effect of being new to pumping.

Moez, try doing 100-200jelqs (or more if you want) after and in between your bathmate sessions. it will help tremendously with the "donut" effect. I know it helped me when I was using the bathmate!

Will do. I'm still going to wait another couple of days to let the skin heal completely then I'll start that.

Sorry I'm not comfortable posting pics.

but I did learn that medium pressure for longer periods of time has a better effect than high pressure, even though I fill the tube more. Too much pressure seems to hurt me so I had to back off a bit.

Another update.

While the first few uses seemed to make my non-pumped erection slightly thicker and longer, I was amazed and thought I had a lot of potential to gain.

While pumping, I'm filling up the tube more and more each week, but my non-pumped erections are staying the same size. I guess it's normal. I can sometimes pass the 200 mark, but the donut effect bothers me, so I cut back on the amount of time I'm actually pumping.

jelqing between pumps really helped though, thanks to gingerhung's advice on that. Kegeling and reverse kegeling seems to help my penis fill the pump, too. The problem, though, is at the base, I'm already starting to fill the ring part. Again, this is only while pumping I reduce to normal size almost instantly.

except for my the glands. my glands were always bigger than the rest of the shaft, but when pumping the glands get really big. and stay big for hours, even when the rest of teh shaft "unpumps".

An hour or so after pumping, I'll clamp lightly, and my penis will get almost as big as when it's in the tube, which is awesome. I'll probably have to get a cock ring. If I can get this big even when I stop pumping from clamping/cock rings, It would be awesome. I seriously gain like, half an inch to an inch while clamping now.

I won't measure yet. I'll wait until I decide to take a month long break from pumping.

what were your starting measurements?

That's the problem, I have a large fatpad, and couldn't get an accurate measurement. My guess is between 7 and 7.5, but I'm not sure how much is my fat getting in the way. So I didn't measure to keep my mind off the numbers.

But one thing is for certain, I have gained around a centimeter in erect length, and my erect girth feels thicker. My head gained the most.

I'm also consistently passing the 200 mark, which is the last mark on the bathmate. It took me something like a week and a half to two weeks to get from 180 to 190. I'm hoping I'll keep gaining at this rate, but I don't expect it.

Few more bits of advice. As you push down to let water out, ease off the pump slowly. pumping too fast sucks in the skin of your ballsack, and pulls your balls up to the base which hurts like fuck.

also, jelq between each pump "set". it'll reduce the donut and discoloration.

last, use lotion afterward. The skin takes a beating from all this, and maintaining skin health is a must.

I don't see how it can be used for just the head.

Another addition, From what I read, it seemed like I was at the top end of size for the Hercules. When I got it, I looked at it and thought "There is no way this is too big for me." But while pumping, you increase in size a lot, and the ring at the base leaves marks after pumping around the base of my penis.

I feel like I should've just saved money and got the goliath. Seems like too big wouldn't have had any consequences, but I'm not sure if it still would've worked.

So like I said, the base is getting really uncomfortable. I contacted bathmate's manufacturers and they replied quickly. Their customer service is great, by the way.

I may be able to exchange the hercules for the goliath, but I'm not sure I'm big enough for the goliath. Any expert pumpers know why tube size is important?

It seems like a tube being too big wouldn't really have any consequences. Any ideas?

your balls get sucked in. suction/seal isn't nearly as good because there's less penis in the tube and more water.

I sent the Hercules back, as the bellows at the bottom of the pump were pulling in the skin and pinching it really bad. It didn't hurt during the pumping, but for 2 days now, there is a ring of pain near the base of my penis. It's healing, but i have to upgrade if I want to continue.

The Goliath seems too big for me though. The hydromax x30 (I think it's called) says it has a wider base, so I'll exchange it for that and see how that works.

Last update until I exchange it, My girth and length look and seem bigger. I could never get an accurate measurement, but I swear it worked. I'm going to wait a week, and then measure and see what I did gain.
