MINUTEMAN'S 3DAY ROUTINE
Responsibility: By reading this guide, you and you alone bear the responsibility for attempting exercises, techniques and methods that are described or mentioned in this guide, so you attempt all this at your own risk, you have been warned. (It might be too much I know, but it is better to be safe than sorry).Note: 3day routine is something I developed from the idea of some member of this forum (premature ejaculation forum), unfortunately I forgot where in this forum I have read it but the idea of ejaculating every third day is not originally mine, I just expanded and made a more detailed post about it, after seeing just how effective it is in understanding one's arousal and even improving EQ. Not to mention a great but bearable exercise in self-control/self-discipline, one of the things we, premature ejaculationists, tend to lack.
Since people tend to ask me for suggestion of what should be the first thing to try out when starting all those techniques and kegels and what not (as it can be rather confusing) I have been almost automatically responding by giving them a description of the 3day routine. For me it is one of the better foundations you can build and later on (by doing it again) benchmark your progress and reflect upon it. From there people will proceed with a better understanding of what should they do next. So if you are new here and don't know what to try first give this a shot. And if you are advanced and well versed in arousal or/and MMO-stuff there is something here for you too.
1) THE IDEA
The idea behind 3day routine is very simple, edge for two days without ejaculating and then masturbate and ejaculate on the third day. For clarification edging is masturbation with a goal in mind that is other than just for the sake of ejaculation, but it can include it. Those goals can include lasting longer, getting used to the stimulation etc. Also by disassociating pleasure from ejaculation (meaning that you don't need to be close to ejaculation, or ejaculate to feel pleasure), and orgasm in some point from ejaculation (meaning that they are two different processes) your body and you will better understand this very important distinction.
2) WHO SHOULD TRY THE 3DAY ROUTINE?
For people who had premature ejaculation problems since there where young the idea of controlling their arousal is, to say at least, foreign, for me when I first came to the idea of controlling arousal it seemed impossible to control one's arousal and lasting time, from not knowing were to start to actually not grasping the concept. 3day routine is here to help beginners understand more about their arousal, make them able to accept it better and in the end making arousal control even easier. Also those that want to understand deeper how arousal affects them, and for those who wish to become MMO.
While it might seem pointless for people well versed in arousal and arousal control (MMO people, or those on the path to it), with the added suggestions (in a form of a advanced route) that I will write for each day of the 3day routine this can very well turn into something as close to a 3day orgasm as it can be without blowing a few fuses.
In that light I urge people who attempt this for the first time (or first several times) against attempting the advanced route in any of its parts, not just because it is too intensive as much as it might spoil the goal of your 3day routine, if you are attempting this for the first time(s) keep in mind that your goal is to observe how arousal affects you and learn as much as you can from it while also in a way conditioning yourself for higher arousal.
3) AROUSAL CONTROL vs (or is it?) AROUSAL CONDITIONING
There are several ways you can approach the arousal problem but the most notable ones are one to control it and the other is to get used to it.
The arousal control itself is described in great detail here, on the other hand the arousal conditioning (accepting and getting the body used to the high arousal) is more of my alley, the best results you will have with the combination of this two ways of thinking about arousal problem. The point of arousal conditioning is that by making your body more used to the high arousal you are able to control it in a way that you are less and less affected by high arousal and arousal spikes in a bad way, and learning how to use that arousal for your own enjoyment, in a way this might be viewed as a more passive way of approaching the arousal problem. While arousal control is a more active way.
The point is that both of controlling and conditioning arousal will bring you to the same point, because while you are learning how to control your arousal you will become more and more conditioned to it, and while conditioning yourself you will become better at controlling your arousal. It is just that angle of approach is different.
In that light, 3day routine is basically an arousal conditioning technique.
4) 3DAY FAQ - Beginner and Advanced route?
As you may notice for each of the day of the 3day routine I will describe two routes, one is the beginner route and the other advanced.
You should not see them as much as distinct things, but more as the opposite end of an spectrum.
Beginner route is meant for those that are having problems with premature ejaculation and need something to point them in the right direction. One of, as far as I am concerned, best way to see the nature of your premature ejaculation problems is to do 3day routine. Also anybody attempting 3day routine for the first time (or several first times) should stick to beginner route.
Advanced route is meant for those that are either a MMO or on a path to become one, also it is for those people that are experienced well enough with the edging that they need to up the experience to learn something more or just to enjoy. But even if you are experienced if this is your first time attempting 3day route, try the beginner one, you might be surprised as how much you can learn, and sometimes the less is more.
5) 3DAY FAQ - How much of the 3day?
For the beginners you can (if you follow the beginner route) attempt it almost back to back for three times. For MMO and such (if you follow the advanced route) once to twice a month or even less should fine because it is a very arousal intensive and it is not something you should do frequently. So the more qualitative your 3day is the less you should do it.
In time you will be able to find a sweet spot between that will suit you the best both in quality (how advanced will be your days) and quantity (how many times during the month will you do it). For example one might have an intensive first day, while having minimum arousal during the second day and finish it of with a high arousal intensive third day, and doing it at most twice per month. It is really up to you. But for the first time sticking to beginner section in terms of quality is a good idea, because your goal here (if you suffer from premE) is to observe and understand your arousal.
6) 3DAY FAQ - Recommended days for doing the routine?
- Honestly, if you are a working man or a student then Friday, Saturday, Sunday is your best bet, since during those days you have much less stress than during the week, and it will also be a good way to really relax during the weekend since you will ejaculate sometime during Sunday and you will have the rest of the day to enjoy the feeling and do something else (hobby etc).
7) 3DAY FAQ - Arousal in 3day context
When I say "maintain arousal etc." it mostly means that you should maintain that feeling of being horny, but for the advanced route in also means that you should maintain an dose of pleasure ( tiny orgasms amongst other things) during the day that you feel.
8) 3DAY FAQ - Have you done the advanced route?
I did, I did not want to post without doing it, however it was a little bit to intensive for me. Since my sweet spot is a bellow the what I put here to be a upper part of the spectrum
As for my sweet spot, I have reached a certain state with wave orgasms in the morning that I really don't need to do anything during day one since I could feel tiny orgasms from time to time (I know it might sound like it isn't true) so my arousal was constant during day one, on the second day I mostly had one session that brought me to the similar level as the first day (sometimes i would DO but mostly not), and on the third day I had a good long enjoyable session with very short soft wave orgasm and a good full body ejaculation orgasm. I like subtle arousal levels more than high, so the arousal route is not for me, and it probably wont be for many people, the mix between the two extreme ends tends to be ideal.
9) 3DAY FAQ - Solo or Duo?
Both actually, but since I am not versed in the duo (sex) department I will write mostly for solo (edging). However for people with premature ejaculation (and since this guide is mostly for them/us ) they should at first attempt it solo so that they are able to gauge things.
10) 3DAY FAQ - Where should I do it?
- In private place that you feel secure and safe, with no disturbs from the outside for a while, turn of your phone, do not play any music nor watch any type of porn. Your mind must be there and not wonder of. You are here to enjoy but also to observe. It seems painfully logical but some people don't actually see just how important this is until the actually try it.
11) 3DAY FAQ - When should I do it? How should I do it? How should I feel?
In the next posts I will create the guide around those questions. In the "when should i do it?" part I suggest a time of day you should edge for most benefit, in "how should i do it?" part I do as detailed description as needed for that day, and the "how should I feel?" part is there mostly for you to be able to sort of confirm if you did the things right.
12) 3DAY FAQ - Benchmarking arousal response
Other thing you should do during these days after a few hours of your edging (or at a convenient random point during the day) is that you can try and get an erection without touching yourself (or watching porn etc, kegels allowed to some point). The way I do it is that I lie down, relax and start thinking about stuff that arouses me (on a better day I can usually just will it with the intent alone) until my penis gets erect. This can serve as a sort of benchmark you will do in the next 3 days to see your arousal response. Of course after you made your penis erect it is recommended not to edge, just enjoy the hard on until it goes away. On the next days you should notice at least a slight increase in your erected time, or at least quality. For me it really ups my confidence when I can get a nice hard erection just by thinking about stuff that arouses me or by just willing it (on my better days).
