Hey guys, i'm new to the site.. I have been viewing the site for a couple of weeks but just now figured out how to use the forum

Ok my question is that I have been doing PE for about 2 weeks about every other day maybe skipping 2 days in between and I am not feeling soar afterwards or the next day, i dont know if im not stretching enough or what.. i'm not worried about length gain at the moment cause I know it takes time but i just feel i'm doing it wrong.. can someone imput if maybe im not stretching enough.. i usually heat soak for about 10 min then i stretch for about 6 min.. 30secs in each position.. then i jelq for about 3min

Kasady, welcome to the PE GYM!!!

If you are stretching for the suggested times in the beginner routine, then you are stretching enough (time-wise.) You may be stretching too lightly (not enough force.) You don't want to be extremely sore afterward but you should feel like you've stressed the tissues. The stretch should be mildly uncomfortable, but not at all painful. Your jelqing time seems a little low. You might want to up that to about 10 minutes. You should be doing about 150 jelqs. If you are finishing in 3 minutes you are either doing them too fast or not doing enough reps.

Try this and let us know how it goes.

PS. when referring to yourself please use "I" not "i", and start your sentences with capitals. It makes your posts much easier to read.

Thanks!

Thank you for responding. Should I be sore the day after or just after excercise, and is every other day fine?
