If this is one of the better Werner paddles Wades method with not work and would likely damage the paddle. Is is one with the indexed ferule, like a Camano or Kaliste? IF so don't do it his way.
A method that does work at times with these models, also works with two piece rods, if they are stuck from swelling or moisture not so much sand. Use a flexible ice pack, bag of peas, bag of ice... and wrap it around the male side of the paddle. This will cause it to shrink just enough to get them apart. Be sure to have the ice on just the male side.

When mine got stuck I had my son and his friend pull on opposite ends. While they were pulling I pushed down on the locking pin/button and lightly tapped on the handle right where they come together......came apart in under a minute.

The one time shrinkage is a good thing.

Expansion contraction is the key. You can chill out the male side to uncouple it, but personally I like to warm up the female side. All it takes is a blow dryer or heat gun. Warm that baby up and she'll be as loose as a goose. Don't overheat her though or you might get burned. As to lube...well a little lube before coupling, can and will make it easier to part when your done paddling. Personally I find the harder I paddle the less I need lube, but your mileage may very.
