How long are you supposed to tug?

[4SkinGuy]

I only do it for a a couple seconds to a minute. Is this long enough for mitosis to happen? or do I need to tug longer?

[greg_b]

Could you describe more thoroughly what you are doing to tug. That amount of time seems in keeping with what manual restorers do, but they tug multiple parts of their skin, so total tugging time would probably be longer. My experience is that the amount of tension is far more important than the time under tension.

I use my hands, so it is manual. I usually tug upwards using my hand to tug either the left or right side of my penis, and sometimes I use both hands to tug the inner foreskin up and down. One hand tugging/pulling down and one hand tugging/pulling up.

That really depends on who you ask. Some say manual tugging for a few minutes a day does the job, personally I find 5+ hours a day with t-tapes or devices is a barest minimum, personally I found zero results with manual tugging, so all that said I am saying there is never a one size fits all answer try it both ways and see which one works for you.

My problem is I live with my parents and I don't think they would approve/understand my foreskin restoration efforts so I don't think I could ever buy a device. T tapes I find too difficult to use.

Thanks, but what I meant was do you pull the skin and hold it for a couple seconds, then stop? that is all during a given tugging session?

Or, do you pull the skin, hold it for a few seconds, then release. then repeat that a number of times, so that you have done many reps, maybe holding a slightly different place on the skin each time, and end up tugging for a total of 5 minutes or half hour, or whatever?

Most manual tuggers seem to report doing a number of repetitions, if you will, ending up tugging for a total of 5-30 minutes, per session, and most do several sessions a day. As Dragons says, this takes some experimenting, and you need to figure out what works best for you.

As far as living with your parents and keeping this under the radar, manual is probably the easiest way to do that. Anything else involves some equipment, and that leaves something around that could be found. Of course, tape, O-rings, and some other methods rely on typically household items, so they may be low profile enough to work, you have to decide how much risk there is and what consequences you are comfortable with. If you are in school and expect to be out of the house in a year or so, then I think a good argument could be made to just wait until you are on your own, or do manual until you are on your own.

Also, I will just point out that devices are not better than manual, in fact, manual could be better than a device, since devices typically need a significant amount of skin to work. Many men use manual before switching to a device, but many also just do manual. The best method is the one you will use regularly.

If you live with your olds, no problem don't use the commercial devices make yourself some t-tapes, they aren't hard to make if you parents found them they would probably have no idea what they are unless they see you actually wearing them.
I would also suggest you consider restoring sessions of HOURS not minutes for a minimum of 3 hours at a time at low tension for the first few weeks.

How am I supposed to do it for hours? (I don't have the grip either) I don't have that kind of time to spend in the bathroom or my room.. as for the t tapes, I find them hard to make and use.

[dragons]

Practice.. After a few attempts you will find them a breeze to make, I'm down to the point they take me about 40 seconds each to make perfectly.

I manual tug between 2-5 mins each time I go to the bathroom. My longest sessions are after I get up and before I go to bed. Over time you will see progress.

What Manuel methods do you use because my strategy is very similar to yours?

I do it in the shower sometimes because it is the only place i have privacy, but that said when you first start restoring, You won't be able to do that.. So i just locked the door to my room when my parents were busy. :p Lol
Just 30 seconds to a minute is all i do usually.

I actually have been using methods 1 and 3 for the most part. I have to constantly trim my nails and file them because I halve so little skin to tug at, but I put myself in positions that bury my penis so that I have skin to tug at. I have been tugging at the outer skin lately because that’s what I lack. I am seeing improvement. I also use method 2 stroking outward with edging. I alternate hands and when I get close to orgasm I stop and let me penis get soft again and then I repeat the process over and over for hours at a time. I have come to realize that I have massive amounts of skin bridges. I remember when I was a little boy being able to completely conceal my penis. For some reason I had a habit of concealing my penis lol. I am not that comfortable with the traditional method 2 because to much can go wrong. I have so little outer skin to tug at, but I have been told that I have enough inner foreskin to cover my glans.
