Penis Pumping Q & A

I'm new at this and am wondering how long it takes to pack a tube the first time? After the first time will you pack the second time more quickly and so on?

Hi Tony,

Your first pack can happen the first time you pump, or the hundredth time! It all depends on how big you are to begin with, relative to your tube size. That's why most guys recommend starting with a tube that is about 1/4" bigger in diameter than your unpumped erection. At that size, you'll pack your tube quite soon - probably within the first 10 sessions.

Of course, you'll soon outgrow that tube. It's more economical to get one about 1/2" fatter than your erection. To pack that tube, you'll have to pump up for a couple hours, which you won't be ready to do safely for several months.

Over time, you will pack more quickly. Your cock adapts to pumping - the fluid conduits enlarge and the tissues stretch more easily. Also, you will improve your technique to encourage expansion - adjusting the pressure, jacking the tube, doing kegels, and so on. Check out the Tips page.

Good luck, and when you pack it, send in a picture :-)
