12-25-2016

Morning:
15 minutes low-grip stretching targeting ligaments
10 minutes edging
11 hours extender plus dry jelqing (cumulative 60 minutes) and stretching (cumulative 30 minutes)


Observations:
Ive been measuring a little over 8" BPEL these past few days, I am very excited and hope that this holds. I am running the extender as hard as possible right now, the only limiting factor is blood circulation, as discomfort/fatigue are relatively mild. I am cycling between 8.25" and 8.40" pressed while in the extender and my BPSFL appears to be over 8.50".
My unit is however seriously lacking in vascular capacity. My EQ is relatively low, probably a 6/10, and circulation is beginning to suffer again while in the extender. I am going to go ahead and begin doing girth work again, starting tomorrow. I am going to do primarily clamping and edging, with dry jelqing spread throughout the day. I am not going to be focusing on girth gains necessarily (I will not be doing aggresive cock ring applications, pumping, and erect jelqing), but I will be using a cock ring after my sessions before re-applying the extender. The goal is to promote smooth cell cell growth, and vascular growth in order to meet the increasing blood circulation demands of my heavy length work

12-27-2016

Morning:
45 minutes low grip stretching
7 hours extender plus dry jelqing and 15 cumulative minutes of stretching

Evening:
15 minutes edging plus 10 minutes clamped edging
3.5 hours extender
10 minutes edging plus 15 minutes clamped edging
4 hours extender
10 minutes low-grip stretching targeting ligaments (light intensity)

Observations:
The clamping is going great. I went really light on the intensity, but was getting really high levels of expansion...surprisingly high levels of expansion. I am able to run the extender around 8.50" pressed throughout most of the day now due to the increased vascularity from the clamping.
I am going to typically go straight into the extender after the clamping sessions, but will sometimes wear the cockring after depending on the situation.

I am going to lay off of most of the manual stretching for a little while, except for low-grip work targeting my ligaments. I should note that my ligaments seem to feel tight after the clamping. I will not be doing any intermittent stretching throughout the day for a while, and will be doing exclusively dry-jelqing in between my extender applications. I will return to intermittent stretching strategies later down the road when I feel my unit will be more receptive to it. During the meantime I am going to be just trying to max out the extender and keep increasing the length.

I recently ordered a BIB hanger, and will be using it soon.

12-30-2016 and 12-31-2016 (approximate workouts)

Full day:
15 minutes low grip stretching targeting ligaments
13 hours extender with dry jelqing as needed (roughly 20 minutes dry-jelqing)
Two clamped edging sessions (40 minutes total)

Observations:
I'm really focusing on engorging the glans during the dry-jelqing, it is extremely effective when done after a clamping session. The clamping massively amplifies my unit to use the extender, I was able to run the extender at roughly 8.75" pressed for over ten hours on the 31st. I am noticing visible growth in length these past few days. Clamping plus extender use is amazing for length....

Measurements Update (1-1-2017)

BPEL 8.11"
BPSFL 8.82"
EG 5.17"

I can barely believe my measurements.... I am always skeptical and tell myself I'm measuring inaccurately. I can say for sure though that my measurements are precise, as I am measuring in the same exact way each time: same hip placement, same erection level, same placement on the fat pad, and same vertical alignment of my eyes with the rulings on the ruler and tip of my glans.
I haven't been able to post as much content lately, as I've been quite busy with a new project which will take several more months. My procedural outlines and thoughts have been very lacking, but I am nonetheless still practicing PE with the same intensity.

Keep it up. High intensity, but paying off.

1-1-2017

Full day:
15 minutes low-grip stretching targeting ligaments
13 hours extender plus dry-jelqing as needed (roughly 30 minutes jelqing)

Observations:
No clamping today, I have an ingrown hair near the base. I'm going to continue running the extender as hard as possible, I know I still have tons of gains left on the table to tap with extender use alone. I am extremely confident right now regarding future gains, as coupling clamping with intense extender use has proved to be surprisingly effective. The clamping provides elevated blood delivery to the glans, but more importantly, lateral expansion on the fascia of the penis. This lateral expansion when followed with the linear stretch of the extender allows for easier exceeding of the penis's elastic modulus.

1-2-2017 and 1-3-2017 (approximate workouts)

Full day:
15 minutes low-grip stretching targeting ligaments
9 hours extender (low length, stretched roughly 8.00" to 8.25" pressed)
Dry-jelqing as needed (roughly 20 minutes)

Observations:
Currently traveling, so I am having to run the extender at a low length setting as I don't have the time to frequently adjust based on circulation levels. I will be back home on Friday, and will resume heavy work then, in the meantime this will serve to cement previous gains and provide a de-conditioning break for my tissues, allowing them to be more receptive to length work when I resume later this week.
The BIB hanger has arrived, and I will begin compression hanging on Friday. I except to see some serious gains here soon.

Great work and nice log.
Your gains have been amazing. Is that all from your extender? The girth gains are most likely mostly from your clamped edging.
Nice...

[Nathan341 Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close Nathan341]

Hey getinbig, thank you. My first 0.75" in length gains were primarily from hanging and use of the Phallosan Forte, I employed high volume and high intensity, logging over 10 hours a day in the PF and over an hour a day of hanging (started hanging around August).

My last 0.60" in length gains were primarily from manual stretching and intense extender use. I've used many different manual stretching schemes, where I basically do whatever feels the most effective (all has been recorded in my log). As far as my extender use, I get probably 10 hours a day in of solid use. I run the extender extremely hard, where I have to take the extender off multiple times every hour due to fatigue. I especially believe in extender use immediately following girth work, as this is when you can achieve the highest levels of elongation.

I use a folded, 1" diameter silicone sleeve placed 0.40" underneath my circumcision scar to help collect the skin, and I then secure the harness of the extender behind the collected skin.

1-7-2017

Morning:
20 minutes low grip stretching targeting ligaments
20 minutes dry jelqing (80% erect)
5 minutes stretching (straight up)
40 minutes hanging, SD at 2.5 pounds
4 hours extender

Afternoon:
10 minutes low grip stretching targeting ligaments
10 minutes dry-jelqing
30 minutes hanging SD at 2.5 pounds
4 hours extender

Evening:
20 minutes dry-jelqing
40 minutes hanging SD at 3.25 pounds
1.5 hours extender

Observations:
The BIB hanger has been surprisingly easy to us. It took me maybe 30 seconds to wrap my unit and apply the hanger, even though it was my first time doing it. I simply collected the loose shaft skin below my circumcision scar using a small silicone sleeve just as I do when applying my extender, then wrapped a 12" segment of an ACE bandage around it, and then applied the hanger. The hanger required almost no tightening, and stayed in place via the static friction with the wrap. I should have started compression hanging a long time ago.... BIB hangers have a bad reputation around here for being uncomfortable or causing circulation issues, but I could literally hang with this thing all day long given that I take it off briefly every 20 minutes to restore blood flow. Hanging all day would be impossible with a vacuum hanger, it simply causes too many issues with the skin on the glans (irritation, edema, blisters, etc). Even as shocking as it sounds, I would go ahead and say that the BIB hanger is more comfortable than the LGhanger, as the vacuum component of the LGhanger is very uncomfortable on the top portion of the glans, even when the glans are protected (I've used micropore tape, self-adhering mesh tape, even the phallosan forte glans protector).

Im starting this cycle with high volume, and will start progressively ramping up the intensity. All of my tissues feel very receptive to the different exercises. My internal penis and shaft feel very sensitive to stretching (deconditioned). This is good, as I will have a large breadth exercises which will induce real tissue fatigue as I move forward. I've always followed the exercises that seem to induce the most noticeable fatigue, and whenever an exercise stopped feeling as though it was really hitting my tissues, I switched to another exercise that felt effective. This approach has seemed to work for me so far.

Going to bring back the clamping soon, that ingrown hair has been healing really slowly.

1-8-2017 and 1-9-2017 (approximate workouts)

Morning:
15 minutes low-grip stretching targeting ligaments
15 minutes dry-jelqing (80% erect)
5 minutes stretching (SO and SU)
40 minutes hanging SD at 5 pounds
6 hours extender

Evening:
15 minutes dry-jelqing
40 minutes hanging SD at 5 pounds
3 hours extender

Observations:
Regarding my current hanging, I am merely conditioning my unit to the compression aspect. I could easily hang over 10 pounds right now but I am slowly moving the weight up for safety.

I am using a whole new method for applying the extender. I purchased new silicone sleeves off of amazon (5 bucks probably 10 sleeves), which includes 0.75" and 1.00" diameter sleeves. I collect the loose shaft skin and apply the 0.75" diameter sleeve first, then I apply the 1.00" diameter sleeve on top. This has made a massive difference in my ability to use the extender as it inhibits the glans from retracting (one of the biggest issues in extender use is the glans retracting back behing the point of compression, thus resulting in "slippage". This new method prevent slippage almost entirely, and also serves almost as a cock-ring for the glans. When applying the extender immidiately after dry-jelqing, the glans maintains a substantial level of engorgement. I am currently having to take the extender off periodically due to glans fatigue and not shaft fatigue, which is completely different from before. Therefore, I do not expect to see a lot of actual length gains right now as I am not pushing my shaft very hard. One my glans become conditioned to this new method, I will be able to really push the length of the extender and start targeting my shaft. I am staying extended in the 8.10-8.60" range throughout the day

I do not feel like I am going to see any gains from my current routine. I feel as though once I start hanging over 10 pounds, I will inevitably start receiving length gains, but I do not want to rely solely on hanging. I am going to design a new manual routine to use on top of the hanging, which will involve clamping and intermittent stretching throughout the day, and I will cycle between different schemes on a weekly basis where I move to different target tissues.
