How much pressure when unsing the pump?

Postby strongagain » Wed Oct 26, 2016 7:18 am

I wonder how hard you people press the pump. My hand is not very strong, therefore I can squeeze the pump only partly. Are some of you powerful enough to fully press the pump?

I have heard that some guys have their partner doing the pumping if they have problems doing it themselves.

I have strong hands, and I was really surprised at how much force is required to pump. At first it was like trying to squeeze a marble, but even after it loosened up it was, and remains, pretty stiff. I can do some one-handed, but after a few squeezes I need both hands. Like David_R says, maybe your partner could give you a hand, so to speak.

I use two fingers. The first two pumps are full then about halfway after that

I still have swelling and tenderness in scrotum but I try to do full presses whenever possible. :o Sometimes I have to wait for pump to fill again. I find that quick squeezes helps prime it if this happens. 8-) I'm sure this will correct with use and that darn deflate button will be easier to find. ;)

Two hands. Have to squeeze it VERY hard initially (most of the time I have to push the release valve first before I squeeze the bulb) until I hear and feel the pop and then I continue with two hands. Takes only about ten squeezes to get it fully hard.
