After the gym, my dick shrinks to about the same size as I was when I was a 11 year old. Quick run to the shower and some hot water normally sorts it out

That is rather interesting; cos just today i was saying to my Mrs that the outline of my rod was visible as i worked out at the gym. It is funny cos since i got back from a dirty weekend away, my cock seems to have grown a bit bigger. Strange.

I've theorized that the amount of shrinkage is related to the degree the body enters a fight-or-flight state. Stress from a workout, either prolonged or intense, should cause the body to reallocate resources to "defense" and away from aspects like reproduction. If you're unhappy with the shrinkage it might be worth experimenting with a lighter workout. Of course, on the other hand, if you want a hard workout shrinkage might be a good sign.

This happens to most guys I would assume. It doesn't bother me one bit. In fact, I'm happy it shrinks when i'm trying to run or be active. The last thing you need is your twig and berries flopping all around...Not that its a big difference but it also makes less of a target for hockey pucks, baseballs, etc.

so happy i found this thread. i've had gym dick before but usually after a shower (as others have said) or sitting in the sauna or steam room i'll be back and then some. but the last couple of days i've been working out harder and i've been having some extreme gym dick. glad to see there is a correlation for many guys with harder workouts and more shrinkage...i went into a panic today when i was standing in the shower and everyone else was a-ok with their huge tools and i looked like a child.

I get just the opposite while working out...The pump seems to travel everywhere whether i want it too or not.. Especially during leg workouts, specifically the leg press and leg extension.. i thicken up something terrible..its caused me to head to the locker room on several occasions in a hurry

I agree man, leg press, I think there is a fight going on of where the blood is going, so it goes everywhere in that region! Get plump as. Running is the opposite though or upper body.

I'm a grower too. There are times when I'm physically active, been in water, or just doing stuff where my mind ain't on my dick and it will shrink to the degree that I know what it's like to be uncircumcised (best of both worlds!). Every now and then I'll take a peek just out of awed curiosity. Anyone else experience that? Anyway, on warm days when that happens, my balls hang a lot lower than my dick. I sorta like that feeling when I become aware of it. Like every other guy with the same problem when in the locker room, I'll massage it once twice to wake him up! :biggrin1:

It's basic biology. Blood is necessary other places. Also, the body is trying to protect "itself" during such heavy/strenuous physical activity. It happens to me anytime I'm doing a lot of running, jumping, etc. in a work out.

I also get this when I am sick. Sometimes that is the first indication that something is off. My dick will shrink to nothing
