My experience since may 2018

Big pimple, no pumping for a week already. I am fairly upset, pimples are still a problem for me.
I will be VERY CAREFUL from now on, I will constantly check my skin and always condition first, then switch to more agressive PE.

EDIT: This has been the worst pimple I ever had, on my hole body actually, and it's on my dick.
It makes me feel cursed, I rarely read on other members getting pimples on their dick. I am fairly certain my skin is predisposed to it, hopefully this can be reversed.

Happy to update some new erect length/erection quality progress that I think I realized I made just now.
To keep it as short as possible, I will come back to this subject later:
1.Hand stretching for 10-15min at most,
2.40 min vac hanging done in betweem the stretching with 1, 2kg and even 3 kg for a couple of min, very doable, I wrap an ace bandage along with another soft material I was using when hanging, wrapping both a little shaft skin and the vac stretcher itself.
All this mostly during the day, and a little at night, right before my 1 hour edging session.
3.Really wasn' t planning on edging, but I got really horny and had some really hard kegels resulting into a hard lasting, a little bit longer, boner. My glans was shiny and shapeful looking, possibly from the vac hanger gripping it better because of my recent updated grip, wich is concentrated mostly on the glans itself.
Forgot to mention, I think it's important. I haven't been pumping for 2 weeks, haven't healed that ugly pimple even, focused mainly on stretching my 100% flaccid dick, even to the point of a little turtling. I suspect a little turtling, done right maybe, might be like a good fatigue for me, because maybe my erections come back stronger every time I manage to do this. The fatigue I was used to feel in the lig when hanging weights was cool too, I don't feel it at all right now fwiw, I am probably not even touching the lig when stretching from the glans, it does feel like I put some stress on that base area, a good type of feeling, no pain, when I stretch at 110-120 degrees maybe, might actually be the exact direction of my max erection angle that I'm feeling, that's when I feel the ligs, and by RKing a little, I guess, I can visibly see them lengthen at least a couple of mm. RK = just letting go of the PF sort of, in order to stretch further, it's just that feeling for me.
BTW, I mostly strletch at 90 degrees to lock into the hip first, and slowly move upwards. I only hang straight down for the moment until I get used to it more.
Btw, my new measurements, measured pulling with my right hand and placing with the ruler with my left, opposite to how I used to : 22,3-maybe 22,5cm, haven't perfected my technique even still, might be pressing the ruller too hard or squeezing the glans to a new length, sort of..

Another pimple at the base...tough luck!
I don't think it was from edging, as I said, I've been edging avoiding the shaft for just this purpose, to not touch the existing pimple that is already healing and to no have any new one appear.
I think it's from sweat, I do sweat a lot.
One thing I will do for the rest of august, because I love the summer so much, I will avoid any calisthenics/running/hiit/in other words, any type of training that I like, except yoga stretching at home and squats. I want to avoid sweating for at least 30 days from now on so I can get back to pumping and clamping like I was in february/march/april. I was having such a blast and was hoping to keep it up, but because of pimples I couldn't. And it's already august...

Yesterday, and today, I didn't feel that great.
I noticed I've got so used to getting bad sleep during the summer, I forgot how much time it was since I slept good. I haven't been sleeping well since april, not PE related, just life related.
It might not be just a coincidence that I haven't been able to do PE properly since then as well.
I've been stretching and hanging only(1-2kg these 2 days, I will start adding 3-4kg next week, slowly.
I can gain bpfsl and glans width with my current methods, I will stick to them. Bib was really right about the glans wrapping technique, it looks so big and shiny, and healthy as well, after my hanging sets, especially the heavier one with 2kg, the pulling makes my glans increase and shine, then it shades skin and wrinkles up a lot. This last thing I noted is something that started happening only recently, it might be a good sign of glans growth.
I never really took glans enhancement seriously, given that I knew from my own experience about the after wrapping effect from the tightness of the wrap. In my case now, it's just the two strong sillicone sleeve I use from the chinese vac hanger I bought. They are very durable, very strong, impressive for a product that cheap actually!

I think my testoterone levels are lower now that I really haven't been getting enough sleep, sunlight exposure and exercise.

Tese are factors in T production.

I'll be doing several hours of red light therapy everday from now on, it feels good. I'll even buy a second IR lamp.

I will be cutting down on using ice therapy and cold showers because they mostly feel good, but today I listened to this Andrew Huberman podcast about Pain Control and healing faster with your brain. He basically says that heat is more beneficial after injury than would be cold or ice, in both short/longterm

Ordered a second, stronger IR lamp, I plan to use them both to keep my dick skin healthier than ever, plus heat for PE purposes.
I will do my stretching with both the IR lamps on from time to time when I really want to make another leap into bpfsl.
I actually measured bpel with a ruler, full hard on, the way I used to measure is over 23cm, from the point where my bpfsl would measure 23,5-23,7cm at most. I apper to be over 22cm regular, middle placed ruler bpel measurement. I will concentrate on stretching more only when my EQ is at it's best, short 15-30 sec, intense stretches, grabbing the glans only.
I would guess I am 8" nbpel at a full hard-on for sure, measured with the tape measure without pressing and was easily reaching 21cm placed on the middle. I am pretty satisfied with this as it could be because of my recent stretching. I haven't been pumping or seeing any in-tube length gains for more than a month now, I was reaching the end of the 9x2,25" tube with the foreskin on, reaching the top of my tapered towards the end, toy pump 9x2,15" cylinder without the foreskin as well.
So I guess I somehow managed to get back on track with length gains for now, and I will concentrate less on lower base girth, more on upper shaft girth, glans expansion and length expansion alltogether, as it seems to work well for me combined.
I plan on getting back to Uli and eventually clamping with my ace bandage on, I realised, thinking back on how my EQ was throughout this hole year, that my toughest, healthiest erections were present when clamping was in my schedule for small amounts of time after pumping at low pressure for longer sets and Uli squeezes at the end.

When I do a succesful RK erect hold, my regular kegel/ic contraction is coming back slowly involuntarily.
Should I tame this in order to perform an even stronger RK the next time? Or is it possible without the voluntary control on the IC ...

Something I found in my notebooks as well, reverse jelqing or horizontal movement, wich it used to be called and iirc.
Something I found out later on doing this, besides seeming to gain some girth right under the glans and some great veins exposed wich definitely weren't there before, but they also feel healthy and my dick responds well to a good stretch-back/downward pull with a slight pressure wich allows the glans to expand and the cs right below is starting to be feelable, as opposed to how it was for most of the time.

Edited after one hour:
I finally think I believe Rocasalada22's (from TP) quote that I really liked: "You can gain more in one year with an amount of time than you could gain in 10 years with that same amount of time", wich is crudely translated from s panish I believe.
But it really seems that almost only gains lead to more gains sometimes. I finally managed to start pumping for long at low pressure, tried a new approach out of instinct after 1-2 hours in tube already, and it seemed to give better results than staying any longer in the tube. Edging slowly keeping that Glans and Cs expanded the most, coming close to ponr, pumping with more tham 6hg, less than 15hg for a few seconds or maybe oneli minute.
I believe this, combined with constant bpfsl gains when my EQ is top notch, will remain the routine for now.
No clamping, only Ulis, tried one clamp with one click today for a couple of minutes and I didn't like it, my base isn't prepared for it yet.

Btw, on another note, if anybody reads this and know of the thread that held the discussion between someone who was a real skeptic, the best of them all maybe, and some of the members around like Big O replying to him wich ended up in him denying 80% of all the threads that were linked.
I can't find it and I want to link some more.

After a number of threads like that we came to the conclusion that guys will do pe and get a bigger dick and there is their proof . Or they will not do deny deny deny regardless of the amount of evidence and waste our time .

Personally I can't be bothered with it .

Thanks, it really is a waste of time actually.
