Double-Handed Inflation
Posted: Mon Oct 31, 2011 12:25 pm
Here is a copy of the standard AMS double-handed inflation guide for your reference.
You may prefer to use both hands (left-hand thumb over right-hand thumb on front side of the inflate bulb, with left-hand index finger over right-hand index finger on back side of the bulb) to squeeze the inflate bulb HARD/FAST to “pop” the valve into the inflate position, rather than just using one hand on the inflate bulb. This method will stabilize the inflate bulb between your fingers and provide you with double the squeeze strength.
After the initial very HARD/FAST squeeze of the pump to activate it, each subsequent squeeze of the inflate bulb is done with firmness.
Be sure that after each complete squeeze of the inflate bulb, you relax your fingers and allow the bulb to refill. To give slight, partial squeezes will only increase greatly the number of squeezes you have to give the pump bulb because you’ll be pushing very little fluid into the cylinders with each little squeeze.
USER TIP (Things I've learned)
VERY IMPORTANT: I sometimes also use my fourth fingers of each hand to hold the other end of the pump in place while I squeeze the bulb with my thumb and index finger. This keeps the pump from slipping out of my fingers and gives a nice secure grip
When starting to inflate, fully depress the inflation bulb and hold it for 3-4 seconds after it is depressed. Release your grip on it and wait 5-8 seconds while the bulb refills with saline solution from the reservoir. Repeat that process over and over until the desired firmness is achieved. In the early stages of pumping, a stinging sensation is noticeable as the old corpora cavernosa chamber is stretched tighter and tighter -- a sensation that will disappear over time as it becomes second nature.
Hope this helps some of you get onto the path of happy and healthy inflations! LGX_Man
