The athletic cup that has been a game changer of late in my Aneros sessions!

You sitting on this cup ? so the aneros has room to move?

@kettladed, I never have my Aneros sessions sitting. My Aneros massagers do not permit that. I have all my Aneros sessions lying on my back so my athletic cup and jockstrap(s) holding it in place are pointing up. Also the leg straps of my jockstrap(s) do not block Aneros entry to my bunghole. Hope this helps.

Thanks for posting this. In time, I am going to follow yours and Goldenboys lead and hopefully will share in your successes. Happy Easter to the whole family of aneros pleasure seekers

@Turnrow Be aware that my experience with "chastity cups" has demonstrated to me that some are much more comfortable for overnight wear than others! If you are undecided on a brand, please PM me and I will be glad to help! Easter Blessings to you!

@Turnrow, @goldenboy is a good resource when it comes to comfortable "chastity" cup brands to choose from. I can be of assistance too!

So what are the benefits of using a cup during sessions?

@LPW IMHO, the benefits of using a cup during sessions are many.

First and foremost, the use of a hard "cup" keeps the attention on your prostate where it belongs and not your cock. Directly from the Aneros WIKI, "Getting Started" page:

"Try experimenting with other forms of stimulation that do not involve direct penile stimulation:

• external anal massage
• anal contractions
• nipples
• abdomen
• perineum
• scrotum
• thighs,butt cheeks, etc.

The idea here is to ratchet up your arousal/ sexual tension anyway possible without direct penile stimulation. As you do these things, become aware of subtle feedback that your body gives you. Can you feel your prostate swell? Do you perhaps sense a tickling or tingling in your anus, scrotum, perineum, abdomen etc? Experiment with deep slow paced breathing using a lower abdominal expansion while you do so. Bear down rectally and as you do so, become aware of any sensations in your prostate and anus."

Secondly, IMHO, the use of a hard "cup" enhances and encourages arousal. This helps your prostate to swell during a session and improves your results. Generally, the "cup" straps nor the cup itself will not interfere with the movement of the Aneros. If the straps are too close together, they can always be moved further away from each other as required. This should also give more room for the cup.
---
Thirdly, my use of a hard "cup" as a "chastity cup" integrates very well with my practice of semen retention and male chastity. Since I do not have ready-access to my cock, I can think about masturbating but I can't take any action; frustrating! I certainly can masturbate when I am not wearing one. I find that wearing a "chastity cup" overnight makes sense to me in that, although I get aroused from nocturnal erections (as every guy does), I generally will not ejaculate from the arousal (I do come very close and can have a wet dream from this arrangement after about 2 weeks).
---
Lastly, the hard "cup" just feels good! It cradles my package and it feels very comfortable! There are days when I will be working around the house (especially outside) and will put-on a cup just for the way it feels when I am hard at work!

As I have said before, each "cup" will have its own "signature", much the same way that every Aneros massager has its own "signature". I would recommend trying two or three different brands to see which one(s) you like the best. And of course, weekly laundering/cleaning is a must! Give them a try; IMHO, they can only enhance your sessions!

PS As @BigGlansDC will confirm, the "cup" generally has a "tail" that protects the perineum area. Pressure on that area during wear can provide some external prostate stimulation and you will feel it! This stimulation will continue during a session and it will enhance arousal, and IMHO make for a better session!

I wish to thank, @goldenboy, for his almost encyclopedic treatment of the question of the benefits of wearing an athletic/"chastity" during Aneros sessions.

I will add to say that whoever wants to do this in their sessions should purchase a hard athletic cup that fits well and is comfortable to wear even for casual wear for hours at a time, whether during daylight hours either at home or at work or even for street wear. During this will make wearing a cup during sessions an absolute delight and enhance Aneros performance. A jock cup will also make your hours of Aless come to life.

Currently the best athletic cup for all this is the Shock Doctor Ultra Carbon Flex Cup which you can purchase from the Net from Dicks Sports. @goldenboy can give his advice on the choice of a good cup.

I enjoy wearing the newer Nutty Buddy Cup for my sessions as well as the older BIKE CUP no longer made. A shame!

Most modern-day athletic cups are contoured, banana cups which were invented to contain comfortably a guy's junk.

If you were rewired from Aneros sessions, so much the better. Your well-exercised perineum will come alive even more.
