I usually shrink up quite a bit during my workouts. Doesn’t matter if I free ball or where underwear. Usually have to do a few good tugs in the shower and sauna to get back to my normal hang.

Does anyone have any tips to avoid the “shrinkage” look after working out? I feel like the other guys in the locker room have these big low hanging softies when they get in the shower, and mine looks all small and shriveled up.
Any supplements or pre workout that you know of can help with this?
You just gotta have a big one like some of us hahaha

You could start wearing a sleeve to prevent turtling during the workout. Over time it trains your flaccid to stay elongated.

You could also try to get a prescription for an alpha 1 blocker, like alfuzosin. It blocks the adrenaline receptor and keeps your dick relaxed

I can't imagine putting this much work into something meaningless.

The real solution is an acceptance that the normal activity after a workout is a jackoff session: in the sauna, steamroom, locker room, alone or with another dude or several. If that were the societal norm, issues of "shrinkage" would, like the penises we're talking about, disappear.

I found this online:
It all has to do with blood flow,” Richard Honaker, MD, chief medical officer at Your Doctors Online, tells Fatherly. “When working out, the body sends blood to the muscles and joints, thus reducing the amount to the penis and scrotum. There is nothing to worry about and nothing to do to prevent it.”

I've had some luck remaining thick(ish) by edging before my workout, then putting on a cocking or oxballs sleeve. I also lift while looking at "research" (discretely, of course).

I wear this and listen to audio porn from hear (pun intended).
THANKS for that link! I'm going to buy one ASAP.

I for one shrink after a workout. I just don't care about the effect.

If your confidence is taking a hit, however, I believe a few strokes to the cock should get some blood pumping to the area. It seems a little excessive to have to take supplements just for this, if any exists at all.

I get shrinkage when I first strip off my underwear after working out, but it usually works its way out after I move around a bit while naked. Since it usually takes a minute or so to get everything in my locker etc., it usually has a chance to get back to normal before I walk to the shower, which I also do naked. Anyone who sees my penis at its smallest probably sees it again several times when it's back to its normal flaccid size
