Anne Truong MD explains that regular penis exercise maintains erectile function, similar to gym workouts. She recommends three to five times weekly, warning that disuse causes muscle atrophy and scar tissue. After a year without erections, firmness takes time to return.

At least three times a week; up to five times a week if possible.

The penis muscle may atrophy and develop scar tissue, and you should not expect immediate return of firmness—recovery will take time.

You should exercise the penis as often as you would go to the gym to do a shoulder press. You should do it at least three times a week, and if you can, you can even do it more often as five times a week. And the penis is a muscle. You don't use it, you lose it. And if you don't have an erection, your muscle will atrophy and it will have some scar tissue that gets developed. And let's say if you haven't had an erection in about a year, you can't expect out of the blue, if you have sexual encounter, you're going to be able to get firm like you used to, because it's going to take a little bit of time for the penis muscle to get going. Having said that, I recommend that you exercise your penis and keep it in shape.
