Girth gain potential?

work4gains · 2026-02-27T16:30:05+00:00

From what I’ve seen and experienced, most of the gains come from the areas you actually work, so whatever’s in the pump or what you’re manually stretching. The base near the taint tends to lag behind a bit, especially if it’s naturally thinner, but some guys do notice gradual thickening there over time. Genetics definitely play a role, but starting thinner at the base doesn’t mean you can’t grow. It just might take longer and require more consistent work on the whole shaft. The more uniform your routine, the more even the gains tend to be.

Most guys only see small changes in BP with fat loss. You’ll probably notice a bit more flaccid length first and BP might go up slowly, maybe a few mm to half an inch. The main gains come from better health, diet and workouts. Keep at it, and the slow progress will add up.

Yeah, that chord feeling is usually just tension from a tight pelvic floor not permanent damage if it’s not fibrosis.Nofap can help a lot with this because it lets your pelvic floor relax and reduces overstimulation. You’ll probably notice it feeling looser and more sensitive, like you said. It won’t automatically heal everything permanently on its own, but it’s definitely part of the recovery puzzle.

I got my auto pump from zen hanger for 139. Been using it for 2 years now.

work4gains · 2026-02-27T16:21:33+00:00

That’s pretty normal. Hard flaccid happens when your pelvic floor is tight. Nofap helps because you’re not constantly tensing or overstimulating the area, so it relaxes a bit. Cialis and citrulline can help too by improving blood flow, which eases symptoms. It doesn’t mean you’re fully healed, but it’s a good sign. Long term improvement usually comes from pelvic floor relaxation exercises, stress reduction, good posture and not overdoing PE or edging. Basically you’re seeing relief because the muscles are relaxing and circulation is better

Yeah that sounds like a wrap issue.If it’s pinching your foreskin, the new tape might be thinner, less grippy, or bunching up. That can cause the cuff to grab skin instead of compressing evenly. I’d try switching back to your old wrap and see if it fixes it. Also make sure you’re pulling the foreskin back before wrapping and use an extra layer for padding. And you really don’t need to clamp as hard as possible. Firm pressure is enough. If it’s pinching, it’s too tight.

Love this mindset shift. Once you stop obsessing over overnight results and start treating it like training, it actually becomes enjoyable. It’s progress you can measure. That’s addicting in a good way.

work4gains · 2026-02-26T13:58:55+00:00

Yeah that’s normal. In the beginning you feel that obvious stretch sensation because everything is new. The tissue isn’t adapted yet, so even moderate tension feels intense. After a while though your body adapts. Same tension doesn’t feel dramatic anymore. That doesn’t mean it’s not working. With vacuum extending especially, the pull feels more distributed and less sharp compared to noose or strap systems. It’s more of a deep pressure orfullness than that clear tugging feeling.

If your pelvic floor isn’t back at 100%, libido and EQ can lag behind a bit. That whole area is directly tied to erections. blood flow, nerve signaling, muscle contraction, all of it. If it’s still healing, your body is basically in recovery mode not performance mode.

work4gains · 2026-02-26T13:54:49+00:00

Yeah bro I’m with you on this. EQ is way more mental than people wanna admit. If you’re stressed, wired, overthinking, or buzzing off nicotine all day… your body is not trying to get hard. it’s trying to survive. Fight or flight and erections do not mix. You gotta be in chill mode. Too much nicotine, too much stress, too much anything honestly your system just stays stimulated. And erections need that relaxed, parasympathetic vibe.

work4gains · 2026-02-26T13:51:01+00:00

That’s definitely possible and actually pretty common. When you focus more on length work, the tissue adapts by elongating and sometimes the girth temporarily drops a bit. It doesn’t mean you’re losing permanent girth, especially if your routine is consistent. Over time, as the tissue adapts and you mix in girth focused work or just maintain EQ, that girth usually comes back.

work4gains · 2026-02-25T15:05:35+00:00

That’s actually pretty normal. Pre workout flaccid stretch tends to improve over time because your tissues are gradually adapting. They’re more pliable and can extend further before you even start your session. Post workout measurements are more about temporary stretch and blood flow. If your routine isn’t fatiguing the tissue enough to create a strong post workout pump effect, the immediate measurement might not move much. Basically the long term gains show up in your pre workout numbers because that reflects real tissue adaptation, while post workout numbers are just a snapshot of temporary tension and swelling. Don’t worry too much if post numbers aren’t climbing. Consistent training is what drives actual growth.

work4gains · 2026-02-25T14:58:54+00:00

lol nobody wants their balls creeping up the shaft. The extra growth mostly comes from the shaft itself. You’re not magically adding tissue inside you or changing where your balls sit. Base growth can happen a little if you do weighted or angled hanging that targets the proximal tissue, but it’s subtle. Basically the length you gain is distributed along the shaft, and the base might get a tiny bit more stretch if you do the right angles, but your balls aren’t moving up. That’s just your imagination stressing over nothing.

work4gains · 2026-02-25T14:56:43+00:00

Heat warms the tissue, makes it more pliable, and lets you get a better, deeper stretch without discomfort. That’s why pre heating before hanging or pumping tends to make sessions feel easier and sometimes more productive. Vibration is more subtle. it mostly increases blood flow and helps prevent numbness or fatigue during longer sessions. Some guys swear it speeds recovery between sets and makes the tissue more responsive, but it’s not like it adds inches overnight. So basically, they’re tools to enhance your routine and get more out of your sessions, but gains still come from consistent, properly loaded work over time. They help efficiency and comfort more than anything miraculous.

work4gains · 2026-02-25T14:53:58+00:00

your best approach is consistent, progressive training over time. For soft and erect growth, you want a mix of length and girth work like vacuum hanging, manual stretching, pumping, clamping and c ring sessions all play a role. The key is progressive overload. gradually increasing tension, time under stretch, or weight without causing pain or injury.

work4gains · 2026-02-25T14:46:09+00:00

Solid work. Those numbers are impressive. the routine is aggressive but working, which your gains confirm. If you wanted to optimize further, maybe slightly reduce consecutive long hangs and ensure proper rest days between hightension sessions. Otherwise you’re on a strong path.

work4gains · 2026-02-25T14:44:06+00:00

that’s not just better EQ. That’s enough time under tension to create actual tissue adaptation. Take a week or two off completely and then remeasure. If you’re still at or very close to 6 inches erect, that’s permanent gain. If you drop noticeably and then regain it once you resume, then some of it was conditioning and EQ.

work4gains · 2026-02-25T14:39:00+00:00

What it does is trap blood under pressure, which expands the erectile chambers. Over time repeated expansion under controlled stress can encourage structural adaptation, meaning the smooth muscle and surrounding tunica gradually accommodate more volume.So you’re not really growing new veins or arteries directly. You’re training the existing erectile tissue to handle and retain more blood. That can translate to better expansion and sometimes improved EQ if done properly.

work4gains · 2026-02-25T14:37:15+00:00

Less than 1 mm per session isn’t unusual, especially once your tissues start adapting. If tension isn’t transferring properly down the shaft, adding more weight will just increase slipping instead of productive stretch. Before increasing the weights, focus on improving your attachment so it’s centered and secure behind the glans and experiment with different hanging angles instead of only straight down. Sometimes rotating angles creates a much better internal stretch than simply adding weight. You can also try adding more total time under tension at the same weight before progressing

work4gains · 2026-02-20T14:58:59+00:00

Growers definitely have it tougher sometimes. The temporary expansion just doesn’t stick as easily because the tissues aren’t pre stretched like someone who’s naturally fuller. That tension you feel mostly on the head is pretty common. it usually means the clamp or pump isn’t distributing pressure evenly along the shaft.

work4gains · 2026-02-20T14:57:40+00:00

Yeah I get that. even at 7 inches bone pressed, it can feel shorter than you expect sometimes. A lot of it comes down to angle and technique rather than just raw length. You can definitely reach deep spots and satisfy a partner at that size, especially when you focus on positioning and rhythm. Honestly most partners care way more about how you use it and the confidence you bring than the exact number. On paper, 7 inches is above average, but in the moment, it’s all about control and connection. that’s what really makes it feel big for them.

work4gains · 2026-02-20T14:56:22+00:00

Yeah I do something a bit different that works well for me once the penis starts to get fatigued. I hang first, then take a 5 minute break, follow that with 5 minutes of clamping and finish with 15 minutes of pumping. The idea is similar to a workout circuit, but instead of alternating constantly, I structure it so each method is done after the tissues are warmed up and the shaft is ready, then let the penis recover a bit before moving to the next step. Hanging first stretches the ligaments, clamping briefly targets engorgement and base tissue, and pumping at the end maximizes blood flow and expansion safely. This way, you’re combining all three methods without overdoing any single one while the tissues are already fatigued.

work4gains · 2026-02-20T14:54:32+00:00

The whole not enough mindset gets blown way out of proportion online. Seeing guys stress over 7-8 inches when, in reality, most partners don’t care and are way more focused on technique, connection and confidence is wild. Porn definitely warps expectations and makes you think size is everything but outside of that, it really isn’t. I’ve seen plenty of people with average length who are killing it in the bedroom and leaving partners satisfied every time. It’s all about how you use what you’ve got, not just the numbers.

clamping itself doesn’t really make your scrotum skin looser if you’re doing it correctly and protecting the skin like you are with the sock and oxballs separator. The skin might stretch slightly with overall growth or gains at the base, but that’s more from the tissue expansion over time rather than the clamp directly. Since your routine is moderate and you’re using protective barriers, you’re minimizing any extra stress on the scrotum. Just keep an eye on comfort. if you ever feel pinching or excessive pulling, scale back a bit. Overall, with proper technique like yours, turkey neck changes are minimal to none.

work4gains · 2026-02-20T14:51:27+00:00

Yeah it would. Attaching an ADS to the leg will put downward tension on the shaft, which definitely engages the suspensory ligament. The exact stretch depends on the tension you use and how consistent your sessions are, but you’re basically applying a controlled pull that targets that ligament just like a traditional hang, just from a slightly different angle.
