Smashed Penis during Bikram Moderators: Moderators Jump to page : 1 2 Now viewing page 1 [25 messages per page] | View previous thread :: View next thread |

in certain bikram poses my penis gets smashed because all the weight is on my hips. I am referring to poses where the legs and arms are lifted off the ground and only the pelvis and belly are on the ground. I see lots of guys doing Yoga so someone else must have this problem. Is it better to wear an athletic cup for protection or is a few seconds of smashing the penis with the body weight not a problem every day? | |||

I hear ya mate! We've discussed this in depth in the past--many recommendations but, I for one have found no relief unless I position a blanket properly. The typical Bikram class doesn't normally provide the time to arrange that. So for the most pasrt, I don't do the painful asanas in a public setting. Now here something surprising (to me anyway), practicing naked lessons the problem--clothing seems to compact and restrict the movement of the organ whereas being nude lets them move out of harm's way. | |||

I always adjust you to be shy about it. However the women in the class are always doing boob adjustments so I feel okay with the adjustment. Now Bruce's idea of Nude yoga. No way in Hell would I go to Nude Yoga. Adjusting my friend is fine in clothing the idea of nude class in where ,,,, well needless to say I would have a huge growing problem the entire class... | |||

Worst part was an instructor "helping" me during bow posture by pressing down on my feet. I didn't have the heart to explain what she was doing to me.... | |||

I don't get your scenario, Green Jello. I suppose it's not important that I get it. | |||

Strangely enough I find the same boob-wise when practising at home, especially with inverted postures (I'm less likely to get strangled by my own chest!). I wish I had the nerve to go bra-less in class. Fee Bruce - 2006-03-21 6:52 PM I hear ya mate!

I've found that practicing "downward facing penis" helps to allieviate the trouble with most prone asanas. Adjustments may be required! | |||

I have found that different shorts are better for some poses, other shorts better for others. Basically has to do with how tight they are. I haven't found a pair that works for all poses, but am still searching! I suspect a speedo might do the trick, but haven't worked up the nerve to wear one during class. | |||

so should I put one blanket under my thighs and one under my stomach? or how about a donut pillow on the floor? I could stick my penis in the donut hole and be protected. I may get a few odd looks, but I don't really care and I think a few guys will likely copy my lead. Maybe I'll be a trend setter | |||

Well, Peter Mac wanted doughnut-shaped cushions.... thought these would be more tote-able :-) Fee Edited by Orbilia 2006-03-23 11:00 AM | |||

Oh, right on! | |||

i kinda had the same issue when i started. i think with poorna salabhasana (full locust) or dhanurasana (floor bow) the trick is to lean foreward and going high enough onto belly/hips. the only readjusting i sometimes need is from garurasana (eagle) | |||
| |||
oh man i used to wear baggy basketball shorts to bikram class, and sometimes i would smash a nut HELLA bad in garudasana. it was bad news... | |||

Are these posts "bait ploys" to attract women with your self-described "penis-so-large-it-gets-in-the-way"? If it is.......it's working | |||
