Some Basic Exercises To Help Prevent Premature Ejaculation

Hi,

There are a couple of basic exercises that you can adopt straight away to help end premature ejaculation.

The first of these exercises – known as the squeeze method – and developed by the sex researchers Masters and Johnson in the 1970’s – is fairly rudimentary. It basically involves either you or your partner squeezing the head (also known as glans) of your penis when you feel yourself nearing ejaculation. The idea is that fairly quickly your penis will lose blood, your level of arousal will decrease and your erection may even start to subside.

After your level of arousal has decreased, you will then be in a position to recommence foreplay and when sufficiently aroused re-enter you partner. Once you near the point-of-no-return again, you withdraw and use the squeeze technique again. And you keep doing this until both you and your partner are ready to achieve orgasm.

The squeeze method can be an effective technique for preventing premature ejaculation, but it has a couple of major drawbacks as far as I am concerned. Firstly, even after you’ve applied the squeeze, your level of arousal may not be sufficiently decreased; meaning that you may have to repeat the process in another 3-4 minutes. And aside from all that – it’s a bit clunky. It lends a real “stop-startness” to the sex act which can really decrease both your and her joy levels.

I did employ the squeeze technique for a while but eventually stopped using it for the reasons listed above.

The other popular method for preventing premature ejaculation is to use Kegel Exercises.

The Kegel exercises were originally developed by Dr. Arnold Kegel to help women strengthen their pelvic floor after childbirth. But the good doctor actually started using these exercises himself as he realised that they could benefit men as well as women. Specifically, kegel exercises for men can help them achieve stronger erections as well as have greater control over when they ejaculate.

The muscles in question are the pubococcygeus muscles (or PC Muscles) of the pelvic floor. If  you’ve ever cut off your flow of urine midstream, then you’ve flexed your PC muscles to achieve this outcone. They are located between the scrotum and the anus.

Loosely speaking, kegel exercises for men are basically flexing the PC muscles to help increase the muscle strength. As it is the PC muscles which control the flow of both urine and semen as well as the strength of your erection; the “fitter” the PC muscles are, then the greater control you will have over your ejaculatory reflex.

Kegel exercises seem to pretty much form the foundation of any premature ejaculation exercises program, but I don’t believe they are enough just by themselves. They don’t adress your mindset during sex, nor your overall level of relaxation or your breathing.

This was why I knew I’d discoved the complete premature ejaculation exercises program when I came across Ejaculation Trainer by Matt Gordon – which looks at the whole mind/body relationship when it comes to premature ejaculation.

I will discuss the program in great length in my next post.

All The Best,
