This might be a long read so I really appreciate those who take the time to read, critique and reply!
For the past two weeks I've been suffering from weak erections while aroused or unable to penetrate at all. I am quite the anxious man so the idea of "waiting" to see if my penis got any better would lead to feelings of helplessness and dismay. Luckily, I have the most patient woman in the world at my side. After day 3 of failed sex, I caved in went to see my doctor. I was told that at the age of 27 I was looking at my eventual sexual decline and erectile dysfunction was becoming more and more common in young men. I was prescribed twelve tablets of Cialis 20 mg. Sure, I was able to have sex again and I regained some of my confidence, I started to get increasingly frustrated with the fact I was relying on medication!
I saw another doctor for a second opinion and liked the guy immediately. He was a former powerlifter from the Soviet Union and we talked about the sport in great detail since powerlifting next to composing music is my absolute favorite hobby. Mid conversation, I saw a light bulb go off in his head and he began to ask my about my cardiovascular health. I told him I strictly only lifted weights and stopped any kind of cardio since quitting my basketball team three years ago (I am also asthmatic, I should add). He sent me for a PFT test as well as a V02 test and he concluded that I was in poor cardiovascular shape, my blood tests showed my testosterone was slightly low and top of that my lungs were not taking in as much oxygen as my body would like.
I took a long look at myself the following night and realized a few things:
-I was in shit shape, even though I lifted heavy weights, I couldn't even jog for more than five minutes without getting winded out
-My aggression levels were decreasing slowly, I was becoming more and more passive (I was smoking a lot of pot)
-I was in my head too much, overthinking and causing myself to have performance anxiety in the bedroom.
I adopted the following regimen
Morning (I had to wake up early to start doing this)
1. Woke myself up with a nice cold shower, I used to spoil myself with long hot showers.
2. Music therapy+ Elliot Hulse's Bioenergetic Catharsis routine
-I built a playlist that would get me pumped and in the zone. Music that by the second song had me moving, blood pumping and made me think "I'm the fucking shit, ain't nothing fucking with ME". Music that brings out your inner Russell Westbrook/Mike Tyson/Conan The Barbarian
-While listening to my playlist I followed this breathing and stretching routine by Elliot Hulse https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zD-3j2g9w9U .If you can get over yourself from how ridiculous how you may look, trust me you will feel AWAKE, AGGRESSIVE, AND FOCUSED. Once you memorize the routine and lose yourself to your playlist you will feel reunited with your manly primal self.
3. I then proceed to get my day started before school/work
Afternoon-Early Evening (at work)
1. Through out the day I am drinking a lot of water, also 2-3 cups of green tea through out the work day
2. Eating a lot of fruits and nuts/granola/trail mix
3. I pack a large hearty meal as this is my biggest meal of the day. Brown Rice, Broccoli+ Protein (I switch it up between Turkey and Chicken)
Evening
1. On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays I go to the gym to lift heavy weights. I am currently following a 3 day Sheiko routine and end my workouts with 15-20 minutes of rowing on moderate difficulty. I recently started a Sheiko routine since they are rather challenging and the excel spreadsheet I downloaded from Dynamophile (https://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&rct=j...9RviAHlgG0d4ug) has my entire month's workout planned for me as well as exactly what weights to use which is a huge plus!
-I think the most important change I made other than adopting a more challenging routine is the ADDED CARDIO AT THE END OF MY SESSION.
On Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays, these are my "rest days" from the gym but there's a treadmill and rowing machine in the basement of my condo building. I do 15 minutes of rowing and 20 minutes of treadmill jogging every night I do not go to the gym
Night
1. Jelq and Pump Routine (Thanks to someone's advice here, I pump for 15 minutes, Jelq for 15 minutes, Edge for 15 minutes. I repeat this 3 times. I kegel and reverse kegel the entire time I am in the pump and only follow this routine on my rest days from the gym and Sundays.
2. Eat Dinner
3. Cool down with a Cold shower
Supplements: Horny Goat Weed, GNC Sport Multivitamin Pack for Men (includes ArginMax), Omega 3-6-9 (Fish oil, flax seed oil, Borage oil blend)
Extra notes: I do not smoke cigarettes, I barely drink and stopped smoking weed completely.
Results after a little more than week?
God damn! My erections are back! Back as in rock hard back! I find myself much more confident in bed (I completely give into my primal/animal self and find myself having sex with way more energy than I used for much longer periods of time) and in my daily activities. I can breathe better, I carry myself more confidently and people are noticing! I personally think the daily breathing exercises and added cardio made huge improvements in my blood circulation. I am going to continue this regimen forever! I'll adjust my PE routine when I max out but overall the foundation will stay the same.
