Question (and this is not a joke). In your experience, do you find it easier to manage a second pop if you:

a) abstain for several days in advance to build up a reserve
or
b) pop off at least twice a day regularly to get your body in the habit -- sort of like getting in shape.

Now that I've reached the ripe old age of 55, I'm finding it harder to get that second pop in the time allowed and I don't have the cash to extend the time.

Jack,

I can't speak for how I'll be at age 55...that's 13 years away yet...but I do know that if I'm experiencing time pressure, the second pop is generally not in the offing.  As much of a cheapskate as this makes me sound, I recommend finding a lady who doesn't pay much attention to the clock...she's likely to stay with you until the second round clears the bore.

Based on what I've read, though, approach B makes more sense.  Masturbation and Kegels exercise the prostate, and it's been written in the national media that some studies have shown that daily masturbation reduces the risk of prostate cancer.  That's not a direct answer to your question, but anything that helps you maintain your pecker's health can't be a bad thing.

(For those who don't know what Kegels are, men can do them by stopping their urinary flow in mid-stream.  Drink lots of water and do that a couple times a day.)

Actually, I can relate to this one.  I generally don't pop the 2nd time in an hour.  I can get it up without a problem, I just can't typically shoot without at least an hour's time to recoup.

So I learn to have fun without shooting the second load in short order.  There are other ways to have fun.  You'll need to find the one that works for you.  In my case, I make sure that the lady is having plenty of enjoyment herself, and I also will go for the second round knowing full well that it will likely end with me being exhausted, rather than with me firing off a second fusillade.  

Abstaining for several days before hand will diminish this problem to some extent, but I find THAT is too high a price to pay, especially in light of the uncertainty that it will prove suficient.

My BEST recommendation is that you get wealthier, so you can afford a longer session, or a second session.

For me, it's all about chemistry, the vibe of the encounter, and if the provider is hot for another stiffy (I realize it's an act, but this were the upeer echelon ladies separate themselves from the pack).

Given only a or b (your criteria), I would choose b.  But it's really a mind over matter thing.

Back in my 20's, I could often pop and keep going without losing my erection.  This would only occur in very passionate sessions and I was only working with civilians.  I found that drinking and little smoking really helped (not cigs).

I was completely monogamous in my 30s and limited to "married" sex.  

I also think you should re-evaluate your position on extended sessions.  Time pressure is a negative both for you and the provider - ELIMINATE that problem and expand your universe.

Good Luck.

I find that as I get older, how the woman is feeling has taken on an importance equal to how I feel.  Essentially, I have failed somewhat if she is not thrilled by the session.  I also perfer longer appointments because they give me a chance to get to know the woman as someone who is more than an object of my desires.

Keep working out at the gym.It raises the testosterone level. Arobic and strength training are the most effective means of maintaining youth.

I also find that keeping well hydrated for a couple days prior helps.

With me (I'm in my mid 30s) it's one and done.  I'm sure the ladies don't mind that.  For me it has always been that way.

I find that it does help if I ejaculate regularly (once a day).  If I abstain then I ejaculate quicker when with a lady.

Although I usually only pop it once a day. I'm a little younger than you (not much) so I don't know how much that factors into the equation. Mostly, I find that 2nd pops are unlikely for me in a one hour session so I normally don't even consider it. However, I have managed 3 pops in a 2 hour session. (Go figure!) I suppose it all depends on the chemistry between the lady and myself and my horniness level. Also, I find that regular physical workouts at the gym increase the intensity of my orgasms in my romps (testosterone is our friend). Mainly, I focus on the entire sensuality of my partner and end up enjoying a quality session rather than quantity.

Personally, I find that a lot depends on the lady. I had a nice,
comfortable relationship with a 40+ year old provider who was a real artiste and made for a delicious hour. But no way could I ever repeat with her with less than two to three hours recovery.
It wasn't that she drained me so completely, but that the 'high passion' wasn't there. A couple of young, hot fire-crackers have gotten me off three times in an hour (and at my age, that's doing something!). Still, in retrospect, I'm not sure which was the most satisfying.
One thing I CAN definitely say: if you smoke, give it up for a few days and you will damn sure increase your chances!

I want to know the secret also.  I'm 35 and I've only been with 1 provider that I've got off with 2 within the hour.  Now, I've had no problem with multiple times with SO's - but then I didn't have any time constraints and am not payin (at least directly).  

I see the provider and of course have no problem with an instant hard on and just want to explore and appreciate this creature.  My dilema is this.  What I enjoy most about being with women (out of my league for the most part) is the fantasy of them enjoying our time together.  So, I do my best to please them (I played my tongue for her pa rum pum pum pum).  Consequently, the earliest I get off is 20-30 min.  Then, we talk a bit but there is no way (usually) I can get up again unless she is really (seemingly) into me (most try but the situation is too transparent).  I would need at least another 45 min. to get over the fact that $ is involved.

Oh, to be viralczar.

I'd say A.

I routinely do a 'cumfast' abstinence of 3 - 4 days prior to seeing a provider to increase the intensity of cup 'o joe #1, and also so that I increase the *chance* of cup #2. It's not "foolproof" (I agree that a perceived time pressure can really louse things up), but it's a better percentage play for me.

I am younger than you, but not by much ... I have found out I can always have the 2nd pop, if I really like the woman I am  with ... if I am with her only to get rid of the urge, then once is enough ... and I can't do it a second time.  When I was younger, it didn't matter.

Also, I have found prior sexual activity [the day before, etc.], doesn't really make a lot of difference.

I am a leg man, give me a woman with beautiful, shapely legs, I will have no problem!

I am a little older than you – Just turned 65.  I do not worry about the 2nd pop as much as just getting him to stand at attention.  Viagra is my answer.  The 2nd pop for me is totally dependant upon who I am with.  I find that the juice is much less now for either pop than it what was many years ago.  He won’t even stand at attention with Viagra if the provider does not turn me on.  I had to tell 2 providers last fall that I was too tired to have any action.  He just would not get into it.
I save my money for a 2 hour session if I like the provider.  Having a great time is more important to me than the number of pops.  

My current ATF is a real turn on for me.  I like mature women in at least their mid  30’s.  She is very hot and full of energy.  She is the first provider that he will be at attention for almost the entire 2 hours.  I can have 2 pops in the 2 hours.  He still wants to keep going after the time is up.  I told her today that we need to do overnights and weekends.  Two hours is too short.

I'm in my late thirties,and I have found that for me,option(a)together with a very talented provider makes it work for me.

I usually put myself on a 3 or 4 day diet(no porn)before my next session,to give myself the best chance for a quick first pop. I enjoy a great conversation with ANY beautiful woman, but in a one hour session I try to keep the talking to a minimum and the action to the max. Less idle time and more activity keeps our juices flowing,and keeps me "inflated" so I can concentrate on pleasing her.

I have also found that providers who are fellatio "specialists" usually have no problem getting a second pop out of me.
I have one provider I see on a regular basis now, just for her ability to take me to completion with her oral skills.
Twice in 20minutes is our record.

I have proposed to her twice and she just smiles,kisses me on the cheek and pats me on the ass as I reluctantly turn to walk away(BIG SIGH).

Too funny.....

Yoda, you'v just given me the best comeback for the next time the SO catches me "taking things into my own hands".

"I'm fending off prostate cancer, honey!"

I agree.  I always try to go with the 2 hr. visit.  No rush getting to the 2nd batch of firewaorks and you've got some talk time as well.....

I thought about this-  best session for me as I am in the same boat might be a starter bbbjtc, then a nice long massage to get to bbbjtc as finale.

Any way I can get that?  If there was a mature lady in LA who could handle that, I might schedule every month- bimonthly when possible.

Now I really feel like shit.  I never consider a 2nd pop.  I can't even think about it.  I'm 42 and I work out 3 - 4 times per week.  I should have some extra testosterone in my body somewhere!

I guess my down fall has been that for 17 years with SO a second pop was not offered (she ususally can't stand the first pop).  I think that after all this time, physically I can't rise to the occassion for a second.

I am going to start taking care of business every day in hope of retraining my body.  I find that the reviews and posts that discuss a second pop are very frustrating.  I get the impression (rightly so) that I am difficient.
