Every man wants a healthy penis. But some men base their idea of a healthy penis on ejaculation - specifically, on how far the liquid can reach as soon as they release. For some men, shooting a few feet is typical. For others, only a few inches is the usual. And for some, there is no "shooting" of an ejaculation. There is only a steady, rhythmic pour from their penis at the moment of pleasure. And even then, there can be variations; for instance, a man who can hit a few feet away might not be able to do that after a night of vigorous lovemaking.

However, some men want to be able to do the "money shot" that they see adult films. There are some ways to improve ejaculation distance - though how much the distance will improve is anyone’s guess. The good news is that none of these techniques will hurt a guy, even if they don’t result in the kind of shot that would make a porn star envious!

- Fire up the Kegels. When a man ejaculates, the bulbospongiosus muscle helps push out the semen. Kegel exercises help keep that muscle strong. To do them, a man should try to stop the flow of urine the next time he goes to the bathroom. That muscle that he moves to stop the flow is the muscle he tightens when performing Kegels. It might take a few tries to figure it out, but once he does, he will understand how it feels to tighten it when he’s not urinating. At that point, he should practice tightening those muscles in repetitions of ten, several times a day. The more the muscles tighten, the more control he will feel he has of his penis, too.

- Stay hydrated. Though it might seem like it isn’t related, the truth is that ejaculation is heavily tied to all-over body hydration. That’s because semen is made of mostly water, and when the body is dehydrated, it stands to reason that it won’t produce nearly as much semen. If a man wants a good money shot, he’s going to want to have as much built up as possible, so drink down glass after glass and stay hydrated!

- Edge like crazy. When a man wants to improve his ejaculation distance, he can try edging. This is the practice of masturbation or sexual activity to a point of getting close to release, but not going over the edge. When he feels as though he’s close, he should back off and let the feeling go away a bit. Doing this for a half hour or more can give him more bang for his buck when the ejaculation happens.

- Change things up. While a guy might think he’s hit the longest shot he can, he might be wrong - he might be using the same techniques and getting the same results. So shake things up by varying the grip, the position, the angle, even whether he’s standing or sitting, and see what happens. One position might go much further than another, so to speak.

- Wait before ejaculation. Though a guy might want to do it every day, he should wait two or three days to allow the semen to build up a bit. This might mean a more intense release, which can mean a more intense volume, which can lead to better distance.

Maintaining a Healthy Penis

When a man is looking to further his ejaculation distance, he should also be looking at what keeps his penis healthy and strong. Using a top-notch penis health creme (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which has been clinically proven safe and mild for skin) can help ensure that. He should look for a crème that contains Shea butter for healing sore skin, L-arginine for boosting nitric oxide and blood flow, and vitamin E for keeping skin supple, as well as vitamin C for the health of the vessels.
