Penis size has been a topic of importance as far back as written records go. There have been windows of time where small penises were in vogue but most of the time in history men or larger penis size have received more status.
Because of the natural inclination of men (and women) to be interested in making their penis larger for all the obvious reasons, many different penis enlargement techniques have come and gone over the decades. Penis pills, penis pumps, penis weights, penis stretchers, penis surgery, etc, etc… However, most turn out to be a hoax, or at least doesn’t give enough gain to be worth it, and many (especially penis pills) have very serious side-effects that would be very wise to avoid entirely.
The one and only exception to this is penis exercise. There are certain forms of penis exercise which are incredibly effective and absolutely no negative side effects – in fact, as it turns out, it has really positive side effects!
The idea of “penis exercise” has been around for a very long time. In a broad sense, you can even think of the penis pump that was so popular a few decades ago and even prescribed by doctors for men with ED issues due to medical issues (like diabetes) as a form of penis exercise, albeit not a very effective form of it.
The ancient Arabic cultures are usually credited with the very first penis exercises which today is called jelqing. Basically, this involved “milking the penis” into a semi-erect state, but not to total erection, to stimulate the the break-down of cells and the subsequent re-building of cells into a larger state. Jelqing does increase penis size to a limited degree but it can also easily damage your penis if you are not careful – many men have ended up with a very embarrassing trip to their doctor or the emergency room after jelqing so I really can not recommend it.
The jelqing technique served as the basis for the first “modern” penis exercises in the non-Arabic countries. However, in the 1970′s serious research was begun on improving methods of penis enlargement using exercises but this research was relegated to the fringes of science for more than 2 decades. However, in the 1990′s it really took off into a serious field of study and is now recognized as a very legitimate field of research and is done in a very controlled way by respected researchers.
The modern techniques are FAR superior in their effectiveness and FAR more safe to do (entirely safe in fact). Jelqing type exercises are only a small fraction of what’s available today and no where near the most effective.
Many of the modern exercises involve the recognition that much of the penis is actually inside the body and a portion of this “inner penis” can be made to drop down to the outside and stay outside permanently. It can literally add several inches in some cases and at least a couple in almost all cases if you do these exercises properly.
It has also been recognized that a whole program of doing a few different exercises in a certain order is actually MUCH more effective than sticking with one exercise. This is because one exercise often prepares the penis for another type of exercise to work.
When looking for the best penis exercise program, it is very important that you find one that provides VIDEO, not just written text. Seeing how the exercises should be done goes a very long way toward actually doing them right and not wasting your time. You also want to find a program that narrows it down to the very best exercises and shows you in a step by step manner which ones to do first, second, third, etc. You need to know how long to do them (if you overdo it, you will actually stunt your growth and potentially damage your penis) and how long to rest.
