JELQ

According to the product’s website, the theory behind the device is that by exercising the penis, it will gradually become larger in size. The company suggests starting slowly and learning the exercise routines, paying special attention to form. The exercises are not supposed to be painful.

Before beginning the exercises, some preparation must take place. Men are encouraged to shave the pubic hair around the base of the penis to prevent chafing or hair pulling, and should then wrap the penis with a hot washcloth to promote circulation. Finally, a lubricant should be applied before beginning the warm up.

The warm up stage is simply either spraying the penis with hot water while taking a shower or using another hot wrap. Once the tissues are warmed up, there are some stretching exercises that should be followed, which are detailed on the website.

Next, there are some basic exercises as well as an advanced routine for men to follow. A semi-erection must be achieved in order to begin the exercises. The exercises are explained in detail on the website, and the number of repetitions done will gradually increase over time. Once the penis has been worked out to a state of fatigue, the cool down can begin. This includes adding a moisturizer and restoring circulation.

Men who feel like their size is inadequate compared to other men may be interested in a product such as this since it claims to be designed to help men “effectively perform penile fitness exercises” in order to gradually enlarge the penis.

Purchase and use of this product will require regular exercise, so men must be committed to spending extra time several days a week to performing these penis exercises.

Although the product claims to help permanently enlarge the penis, we have not seen enough solid facts to support the theory that exercises can make the penis grow. Furthermore, use of this product will not address other issues related to overall sexual health.

• Details of exercises posted on website
• Website posts a few testimonials

• Product is overly expensive
• Use of device requires maintenance
• No information on actual company is given
• Regular exercise could be inconvenient for some

Use of an exercise device like the JELQ, may be of interest to men who are looking for an alternative approach to increasing penis length and girth. We appreciate that the exercise methods are clearly posted on the website, including information on preparation, cool down and maintenance of the device, and that it claims to provide permanent results.

However, the device has not been around long enough to truly boast helping men achieve “permanent” results, and purchase of the complete system could cost $260, which is a big investment for a still we feel, unreliable method.

As an alternative, men may be interested in modern herbal supplements, such as products that contain the popular herb Yohimbe. These have proven to be a powerful way to attain the strongest erection, and will also provide stamina for enhanced staying power. For a reliable method of improving sexual performance, oral herbal supplements that include this extract are strongly suggested. They will be more convenient than using an exercise device in order to see immediate results.
