I had my son go with his dad to the bathroom, had his potty chair in there … he was about 2 yrs old.
A doctor once told me that you are wasting your time to try before the little boys are 3. Let mature a little bit.
Im right there with you! My daughter is the same way. She will hold it forever but as soon as she gets up she pees all over the floor
I have 6 boys and never started until 3-3 1/2. In my opinion you’re starting way to early. Most boys just want to play and don’t have the attention span for that yet.

Have male family members take him with them every time they go to the rest room. Learning potty training by monkey see monkey do is the easiest I’ve found
That’s too young 1 hour on the potty? That’s just woromg in my opinion

We had to turn our son backwards on the big toilet bc he would not sit on a kiddy pot or stand & pee like reg …and it worked!!!
I waited until they were 2 1/2 and they trained in a couple of days.

Try cereal in the toilet bowl and tell him to shoot at them work with my grand son 
Sit him facing towards the back & put Cheerios in the water and have him pee on them. Make it a game & he will do it.
Boys are harder then girls try again in 6 months
Have him pee outside in a pan of water. Make it a game for a couple days.
Make it a game put cereal in big person toilet have him aim to hit them
Boys are soooo much harder than girls
Put Cheerios in his potty and tell him to pee on them…
Wait at least another 6 months.
Two is rather young.
Better question is, is he ready to be potty trained? Some times they are ready and freak out, so you have to step back and wait for them to be ready.
Get him 2 pee in a cup, make it a game 
I agree with what many others have said, pee on a fruit loop is a great trick. Also, set a timer and put him on the toilet every 30 minutes or so. He will get it when he’s ready, be patient with him. Don’t stress and if you need a break and to try again in a few weeks, don’t worry. He will get there.
Might be a little young for it yet. Kids differ in their development and readiness to potty train. When I worked with a pediatrician they had said boys usually potty trained around 4 to 5 years old, when they can correlate the urge with the action and control. I can’t tell you what will work best for him, but until he’s ready to work with you and communicate about it, it’s not going to be easy
My boy was just under 2. All I can say is set a routine and limit drinks to meal/ snack times. Potty first thing in the morning and then set a timer for every hour and try to go. Put a fruit loop in the potty for him to aim at. Get some
Mini M and M’s. Give 1 for trying, 2 for peepee and three for poop. I’m training my youngest now. Stay home and focus on the potty for a week and you will have it down. Boys like to go outside also so maybe play out side a lot and then bring the potty out and start using it outside too… good luck.
Take him potty every five minutes, sit on the toilet for 10min and repeat. Stop giving him so much drink it makes it harder to learn bladder control if it’s ALWAYS full. One drink after every bathroom trip.
Have him face the back of the toilet he won’t feel like he is going to fall in
Use what he likes as an incentive. My son learned that he could use change for the little rides and candy machines at the grocery store . So he got a nickel for peeing and a quarter for pooping. Once he made the connection it went pretty quickly.
Wait til 3. All 3 of my boys. 3 years old.

My boys were nearly 3, my daughter was 2.5. It depends on the child. Not all little ones are ready internally. He will let you know when he’s more ready. There’s lots of story books about potty training. I know,I read them all a thousand times! You sound like a good mom, don’t beat yourself up. It all happens sooner or later.
My son turned 2 May 22, it might be weird to some people but I put his potty outside of my bathroom you can also put it in the bathroom so everytime I had to pee i would sit him on his toilet and tell him I’m peeing lol every morning I’d wake him up ethier 7:15 7:30 and bring him to his toliet to have a morning pee and the same thing before bed, I’d put undies or shorts on him threwout the day and he’s just known to go to the potty everytime he has to go, for pooing we have a schedule basically cause after the morning pee and breakfast id put one on him and he’d go , he won’t go poo without a diaper (lucky me) but he’s just very high maintenance 
Every baby can be different if you kno hes ready to start potty training you will kno, hope anything i wrote was helpful!
Good luck 
Calendar and stickers for each time he potties. If he goes a couple of days without a sticker, he’ll be sad and want a bunch of stickers every day. Two is pretty young though. I’d wait till he shows you he’s interested. Also Cheerios in the potty is like a neat game for boys.
I haven’t read any other comments. I did daycare and have a son of my own and will tell you that what worked for us.
I left a small bowl of Cheerios in the bathroom or near the potty. Every time I thought it was time to “go”, I would put a Cheerio in the toilet or little water and a Cheerio in the potty and tell the boy to sink the boat. Hint: It helps a bunch if you can get dad to play along at least once.

Every child is different regardless of sex. My oldest daughter was allergic to every disposable diaper even the organic cotton ones so it was cloth diapers by 18 months she wanted to potty like mommy so I got her a potty she would go with me and was fully trained before age 2 no night time accidents nothing. My second daughter was a nightmare she was almost 4 before she finally would use the potty for number 1 and 2.
Sounds like he’s not quite ready! Many boys don’t potty train until their closer to 3! 
I live out of city limits, so I just let my son pee outside when he needed to. I let him run naked for awhile too, but had him wear underwear for a certain amount of time for him to get use to wearing them. You could also do this if you have a privacy fence. He had fun being able to do it outside and then he moved on to the potty seat. Oh, he even had one of those frog urinals and really liked that.
He needs to be able to feel the need to go he really isn’t ready until he can recognize that

He is not ready yet…stop for a couple weeks then Put a few fruitloops in toilet bowl tell him to try and hit the fruitloops when he pees…
Take him to the back yard and give him a tree or bush to pee on. As a mom to 4 boys they have this weird primal need to pee on trees.
The more you stress about it, the harder it will be Relax, step back and try again in a month or two.
Chocolate ice cream worked for us!! Reward
I trained mine @ a year that in the earlier years it really depends on the individual
Also it does take patient
With boys it has to click an most of them are closer to 3
Get him a urinal!!! They have all kinds to n amazon
Success In the beginning is based off staying dry, not just going in the toilet. Take the pressure off him to go and like first commenter said increase the amount you take him to increase chances of success. One small reward for being dry (cheerio, fruit snack) When he sits give extra verbal praise, Small edible like 1 M&m for sitting calmly for a few minutes, then increase reward for actually going (3 m&m’s). Remain neutral if an accident occurs and remind him he gets a treat for practicing his big boy sit. (Backwards often helps nervous kiddos) Set him up for success and he’ll do just fine! You’re doing great, mamma!
