The Two-Minute Warm-Up Before GODLIKE
You're lying there with the device in your hand, and you want to get to it. Two minutes of doing almost nothing is the fastest route.
Not a ritual. A sequence that stops the first minute from setting the tone for the rest.
The Short Answer
Spend 2 minutes before insertion. Breathe slowly for 30 seconds with your legs relaxed, hold the device in your palm for another 30, then run it at speed 1 near the entrance for a full minute before going further. The 25-degree curve does the aiming, so slow is genuinely possible here. Skip the warm-up and you'll likely start at speed 4 to compensate for a body that hasn't caught up.
Minute One: Body Before Device
Lie on your back with a pillow under your knees. Take 4 breaths that are longer on the exhale than the inhale. That's it, and it isn't mystical: a guarded pelvic floor reads pressure as resistance, and slow breathing is the cheapest way to unguard it.
Then hold the device in your palm for 30 seconds. At 6.2 oz it's substantial, and your hand needs to learn the weight before it starts steering. Cold silicone also firms up, and a minute of contact takes the edge off.
Keep your shoulders down while you do this. It sounds trivial, and it's the difference between a session where your neck aches afterward and one where it doesn't. If you notice your shoulders creeping up, drop them deliberately and take one more breath.
Warm hands matter here too. Thirty seconds under the tap before you start is enough, and it's especially worth doing in winter, when cold fingers grip harder and aim worse than you'd expect.

Minute Two: Speed 1, No Depth
Turn it on at speed 1 and rest the head at the entrance. Don't push. The curve will meet the angle on its own if you let the handle sit low against your palm.
Stay there for 60 seconds. This is the part people skip, and it's the part that makes the rest work. You're not waiting for something. You're letting the tissue adjust to a new pressure before it has to adjust to movement as well. That's the whole mechanical argument, and a minute is enough time for it.
After a minute, advance slowly. If there's resistance, back off and change the handle angle by 10 degrees. The 1.4 inch diameter is moderate, and angle solves more than force does.
Why the Curve Needs This More Than a Wand
A curved device is designed to sit at a specific angle. If you rush the entry, you'll usually be at the wrong angle and compensating with your wrist. That's when the 8.3 inch handle becomes a lever and the 6.2 oz becomes a problem.
Two minutes gets you to the right angle before you add speed. That's the whole argument for patience here.
A straight device can be angled with the wrist almost anywhere, so a rushed start is survivable. A curved one has one good angle per position, and finding it takes longer than people expect. That's the cost of a shape that does the aiming for you.
The Three-Minute Version
Some nights you don't have two minutes, and that's fine. Thirty seconds of breathing, 30 at speed 1 at the entrance, then go. It's less effective and still better than starting at speed 5.
Late at night, after a long day, this shorter version is usually the realistic one. Take it. A three-minute start beats a session you abandon.
It's also the version to use when you're out of practice. A week off is enough to make the first minute unfamiliar, and a shorter lead-in gets you back to a known setting without turning it into an event.
What It Doesn't Fix
It won't fix a diameter that's too large for you, and it won't make a curved shape work if your body wants a straight one. It also won't help if you're using it for external play only, because the curve is built around insertion.
And it won't make a session good if you're doing it out of obligation. The first time you notice you're going through the motions, stop. That's not a warm-up problem.

Who Should Skip It
Anyone who already knows their angle and their speed. Skip the sequence and go straight to speed 2. The routine exists for unfamiliar nights, new devices, and the first week, not for every session forever.
The honest limitation: two minutes is small but it isn't nothing, and some people find any structured lead-in off-putting. If that's you, skip it. The device works without ceremony. This is a shortcut for the nights when nothing seems to land, not a requirement for the ones that do.
Slow Entry, Better Angle
Speed 1 at the entrance for a minute does more than speed 6 in a hurry.
