Handling Member Size Concerns at the Gym
by John Dugan OwnerPeople go to the gym because they want to
improve their physical appearance (among other reasons). With this emphasis on
appearance, some men may find themselves with concerns about an issue over
which they have little control – namely, their member size. Although men know
that male organ health is
more important than size, the size issue still matters to a lot of men. And
they may find themselves concentrating on it while in the gym locker room, when
they may have no choice but to put their equipment on display. So knowing how
to handle this situation is important.
Not
just small
Ironically,
it’s not always concern about showing a potentially small manhood that men
feel. Some men with an exceptionally large endowment also feel conflicted about
revealing themselves in the locker room or shower at the gym.
It’s
not uncommon for men to steal a glance at other men while changing or
showering; comparing member size doesn’t stop after high school. And it can be
done very subtly, with just a glance, or overtly, with one guy commenting –
whether mockingly or admiringly – on another’s endowment. And while it may be
more flattering to get comments about how much action a man’s big member must
get rather than comments about how a woman even knows when a small male organ
is inserted, it can still make a man feel uncomfortable.
What
to do
Of
course, some men don’t mind the comments and attention, whatever their member
size. For some, public bareness and the attendant comments or wisecracks is
part of healthy male bonding; it makes them feel connected and more at home
with other men.
But
for those who find revealing their member size at the gym to be stressful, the
following suggestions may be helpful.
- Contact
a professional. Being
a little insecure about member size is normal, but if it causes severe
distress, it may be a good idea to contact a mental health professional to
discuss why it produces such feelings. They may also be able to help develop
strategies to feel more comfortable about member size and to be less concerned
about how other men view it.
- Bring
a towel from home. Gym towels are often on the small size and may not
comfortably wrap around a guy’s waist. Bringing a larger towel from home that
wraps all the way around can help conceal the manhood from other men’s gazes.
Some men prefer to wrap the towel around before removing their underwear before
showering. After showering, they may also keep the towel wrapped as they put on
a clean pair of underwear.
- Accept
that tumescence happens. Many men worry about getting firm in a communal shower or
while changing clothes. This is something that, at some point in their lives,
has happened to most men. (In fact, lots of guys get a kick out of showing off
their male organ this way.) If a member pops up at an unwanted time, the best
thing to do is to accept that this happens and continue on without panicking.
But if it happens frequently, a man may want to consider thinking
“manhood-deflating” thoughts before stripping down. Some men who pop tumescence
frequently find it helps to self-stimulate before going to the gym, just to make
hardness less likely to occur.
- Give
back. Sometimes
it pays to respond to comments about member size, either playfully – “Hey, at
least you don’t need a microscope to see mine!” – or directly – “Keep your eyes
on your own manhood, buddy.”
At
the gym, feeling comfortable about member size is important, but so is the
healthy appearance of the member. Regular use of a first rate male organ
health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil, which
is clinically proven mild and safe for skin) with powerful
moisturizers is crucial for good member skin. The crème should include both a
natural hydrator (vitamin E) and a high-end emollient (Shea butter). It also
helps if alpha lipoic acid, a powerful antioxidant, is part of the crème; this
fights free radicals that cause oxidative stress damage to manhood skin.
