As we described before, The Tunica is made up of 2 layers of collagen fibrils. One-layer acts as a set of rings running the length of the shaft. The other layer runs vertically. Think like uncooked noodles in a bundle. This Organization creates a structure that is very adept at holding high pressures while still allowing for expansion during an erection event.
Tunica Malleability was the first idea I came up with to make work more efficient. If we expose the fibrils to strain, they are not designed to handle like a bend. It will fatigue more quickly. This also acts as a form of injury prevention during sex, as the tissue is more flexible and less likely to fracture. In general, these are bends and twists.
Tunica Release is an evolution of this idea. Still, with the added assumption, the Tunica is a form of fibrous fascia. Therefore, if we apply fascial release techniques, we can secrete many growth factors without overly fatiguing. The credit for this idea goes to Adam over at Massive Novelties. He has been a huge help to me with theory crafting. Tunica Release relies on shear stress and pressure point massage.
A lot of these techniques are hands-on. And my business partner Hink is a bit concerned about how these techniques applied can potentially lead to injury. I will point out concerns as we go.

Semi Erect Bends
This is the simplest form of Malleability Training and will be the beginner’s routine.
- Achieve 40-60 erection. The tissue is full but not anywhere near stiff.
- Place your offhand or a cock ring at the base of the penis. This will keep the tissue taut while doing said exercises.
- With your working hand grip at the bottom of the shaft. Above your other hand/cock ring.
- Slowly turn the penis to the left or right for about 15 degrees worth of turn.
- Hold for two seconds.
- Repeat the opposite direction and hold for 2 seconds.
- Move your hand slightly up the shaft.
- Repeat steps 4-7 until you reach your glans.
- Work your way back down the shaft.
- Repeat for the allotted time.
There should be no pain, maybe a mild sensation of tension. In general, it will feel somewhat pleasant, if anything.
Manual Tunica Shearing
Formerly known as Diamond Jelqs, I came up with an exercise to remove the safety concerns of Traditional Jelqing. There is no pulling involved nor pressure on the nerve bundle. The only cause of concern is overwork, which means sticking to the routine parameter and listening to your body to avoid any issues. It will be in the Intermediate routines.
- Get semi-erect at 40-60% Full but not hard.
- Apply a generous amount of lube.
- Stop blood flow from the penis by placing you offhand or a cock ring at the base.
- Start at the bottom of your shaft with a diamond-shaped grip on your working hand.
Your hand should not be touching the top or bottom part of your penis. Only the side. This avoids the nerves and allows blood to move freely in the Corpus Cavernosum.
- With mild pressure, enough to slightly compress the sides, slide your hand up the shaft. The movement should take 1-3 seconds, depending on your length.
- Place your hand at the bottom and repeat for the allotted time.
This exercise was designed to mitigate risk. So, the most important thing is not to compress the top of your shaft (the part you see when looking down). The dorsal vein runs along the top along with the nerve bundle. We are actively avoiding those parts.
Blow Flow Restricted (BFR) Massage
This is a pressure point message I recommend beginners start out with.
The point of this is to make the Tunica relax before strain. Similar to how individuals foam rolls their legs and hip complex before a workout. While this does impinge blood flow, there is no risk of hypoxia as the max you need to perform is 5 minutes.
- Get Semi Erect, 40-60% Full but not hard
- Lube is not required but may help
- Place your offhand at the base or use a cock ring to impede blood flow
- Using your index finger and thumb to form a pincer grip
- Start at the bottom of the shaft and knead the sides
- Slowly work your way up and down the Each “pinch” should take one to three seconds. (There is debate on how long it needs to be held.)
We are going for a taffy-like consistency instead of a rubber consistency in the Tunica baseline state. No real injury risk as long as you stay on the sides of the shaft. But since you are tenderizing your meat, overwork must be avoided. In my experience, I need less than 5 minutes to reach the taffy-like state, and over 8 minutes, I start getting a stress response, which is shriveling.
Bundled Stretches
I went back and forth on these for a while. Bundled Stretches look a bit dangerous and require decent body awareness to pull off safely. Think of these as the next step in semi-erect bends. You will start using these in the beginner’s routines.
- While Flaccid, Grip your penis with an “OK” grip ΒΌ of an inch or 1 cm below the glans.
- Twist your penis so that the head turns upside down.
- Pull out slightly and hold for the allotted time.
- Repeat the opposite turn (so if you did a clockwise turn, do a counterclockwise turn)
- If you have a long enough penis (over 6.5 inches) and have been doing PE for over 6 months, add a second bundle so that your glans does a full 360.
I cannot stress this enough. This is meant to be done at low tensions. We are not trying to elongate but stimulate the separation of collagen fibrils. It will feel a bit weird, but it should not be painful.
Bundle Stretches in Device
This is definitely more advanced than typical bundles. I would wait 9 months before trying this. I also have issues holding the bundles in my vacuum hanger, so your results may vary. Just like bundled stretches, except it’s in your chosen device. Keep the load low as you are not trying to elongate but stimulate.
Gua Sha Scraping/Tunica Scraping
This is the progression of Tunica shearing. This is for intermediates and beyond. The idea comes from fascial scraping, where shear stress to the fascia (and tendons, for this matter) release growth factors causing an accelerated recovery response. This also has the added benefit of smoothening out the connective tissue, so it removes calcium buildup and fibrosis, making this a potential treatment for Peyronie’s. Finally, it smooths out collagen into a singular layer. So, if you have been doing PE for a while, this will make your Tunica smoother, letting it stretch farther since there is more “inline” collagen to work with.
- Apply a generous amount of lube.
- Grip the glans and pull straight We are not trying to elongate but just be easily worked in the next step.
- With your gau sha blade, start on one side of the penis and work up (and or down) the shaft.
- This is a slight We are not trying to fold your penis over the blade but supply a slight bend.
- Repeat for the allotted reps, typically fifty.
- Do the other side for the same number of reps.
- Each stroke should take 1 to 2 seconds.
- There is no need to do the top or bottle, and for injury prevention, it’s probably a good idea to avoid them.
I find this one very interesting, as I have also seen some skin growth since I added it to my routine, which made me more sensitive and appear bigger in the process. Also, I noticed more stimulation when doing this semi-erect. But more trial and error is needed.
Massage Under Tension
This is the progression of BFR Massage. The idea is to elongate while doing the pressure point massage to get some added fatigue and shear stress. You can easily overdo such intermediates with 6 months of experience and beyond.
I primarily did this in my apex extender, which will work in any extender or hanging setup. This, Again, is one of the ideas from Adam at Massive Novelties.
- While in the device and under Use the pincer grip I mentioned in the BFR Massage and slowly work up and down the shaft.
- Tension should be light, with no more than 7 of load in 99% of cases.
- Extenders will have to slowly adjust the rod’s length or sled position to keep the tension constant.
- Massage for the allotted time.
You will most likely not need more than 5 minutes of work.
BFR Clamping
To differentiate between the traditional style of clamping and mine. I call this technique BFR Clamping. The idea is to only induce hypoxia and not any over-expansion. Save that for pumping, as it is much better at that.
This limits stress on the tissue and maximizes Vaso-endothelial Growth Factor Release.
- Get erect.
- Apply cock rings or silicone sleeves (between 3 to 5) to the base.
- Leave the stint on for 10 minutes.
- Remove the stint and massage the penis to restore the oxygen supply.
That’s it. We are not trying to stay erect the whole time. No need for arousing stimulus (porn). You will not be hard by the end of it, but you should be around the same size you are when erect, just spongey and slightly purple.)
