DryJelq's Final Progress Log

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

I haven't been focusing on girth. My girth is in the 5.2-5.6 range and I'm okay with that. I want to get up in the 7.5-8.0 BPEL range before I start working on girth. The 7.5-8.0 BPEL will give me better control over hitting the deeper spots.

There's been a lot going on in my life lately and PE hasn't been something that has been consistant. I really haven't made any gains in the past 3 weeks. I've been hovering in the same 7.7-7.9 BPFSL range and I may have lost a little girth.

Wow I haven't been on here in forever. Life has been so busy lately. I really haven't had time to do a consistent routine.

Over Christmas and New Years break I had a lot of free time and overtrained way too much. I'm still not sure I've fully recovered. My penis is functional but it seems to get sore easily and my sex drive is down.

I feel like my sex drive may be down due to the cold winter, poor diet, lack of sunshine, and stress from work. Definitely going to have to address that this week.

I feel your pain. My Corona got jacked up somehow and now it easily gets sore. Flippin' taking quite a while to heal. Exercise and vitamins might fix up your libido.

Feeling better and getting in maybe 2-3 good routines a week along with frequent sex.

Measured 7.9 BPFSL. I felt a lot bigger 2-3 days ago. I think I may have been 8.0 but it's hard to tell.

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

That measurement was without any workout. Just a 1-2 min warmup of stretches.

I'd have to say my 7.9 was a cemented measurement. I should be able to hit 8.0 or even 8.1 after a good workout. Well see how it goes in the coming weeks.

It's been a few months since my last update. For a couple months in the spring I got super busy with work and stopped doing PE.

I was really stressed and had little sex in that time period.

I lost quite a bit of my BPFSL. However in the past month or two I've been getting in great workouts. I've even been able to incorporate clamping.

Tonight I had a great stretching workout and edged up to a 7.3 BPEL. Afterwards I measured a 7.7-7.8 BPFSL but I didn't feel as loose as I did during my workout.

I been getting away from PE the past couple months. I kinda hit a wall, which I now realize was due to overtraining.

I've been taking a new approach to PE workouts. I limit any exercise to 20-60 seconds. And then rest for another 20-60 sec.

I been starting with basic stretching exercises and holding for 20-30 seconds and then resting. The stretching workout is based on a couple of different workout theories. According to muscle stretching recommendations ligaments elongate after about 20-30 of moderate to high intensity stretching. Which is why most stretches are only done for 10-20 seconds. L

Longer than 45-60 seconds seems to affect blood flow. The rest period allows for the tissues to relax get oxygen and you can monitor your PIs. This system has helped me avoid overtraining.

As a result I feel like I'm the biggest I've been in months. Last night I measured roughly 7.4 BPEL and tonight I measured 7.9 BPFSL.

My PIs have been mixed, but I think the overall conclusion is that I'm growing very quickly right now.

My hang is really good. Very soft and longer than normal. However, my EQ is a bit lower than normal. It takes a while for me to get up to a rock hard 9 or 10. Also it aches slightly when it first gets hard.

It appears that my ligaments and tunica have grown a lot and some other tissues need some catching up.

Right now I'm going to refrain from any intense workouts, and just stick to sex, edging, and light stretching for the next few days.

This is a critical point for me in PE. I've never been able to crack that 7.5/8.0 BPEL/BPFSL mark. I always seem to plateau or fuck something up and overtrain.

Dry Jelq !
Good to see you again !
I like the idea of limiting exercise work-out time .
I find it's easy to over-work my PE if I don't do that .
Keep on !
mael out !!!

My latest routine has been lots of light stretching multiple times a day with moderate to intense girth every other day.

I take every day as it comes. Not doing a set routine just making sure I stretch very often and monitor my PIs to determine when to do girth exercises or edging.

Earlier this week I had it stretch out like crazy and edged it up. Never seen it that big. It felt monstrous at least for me. Unfortunately I didn't get a measurement. If I was to guess if say it was 7.4-7.5 BPEL.

You keep on gaining. Congrats!
Could it be that the routine isn't so much important?

That you had newbie gains and then slower gains.
No matter what exact exercise you did?

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

I haven't done too much PE for the past year and a half. Not having done a formal routine in at least a month (can't even remember, I've receded back to 7.6 or 7.7 BPFSL. It seems that I've only lost about 1/4".

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

The past 2.5 years have been really busy as I'm now a father of a 2 year old son and homeowner.

However, in the past few months I would say that I've had a major breakthrough with respect to PE and simplified my routine quite a bit.

My main focus has revolved around a ligament stretching article that I discovered about 2-3 years ago, but never had a good chance to apply its concepts.

Basically the article is about muscle stretching for athletics. The article advised to not hold stretches for longer than 20 seconds because it results in elongated ligaments that results in reduced stability in joints. So my theory has been to do the opposite. Ideally I hold a stretch for at least 20 seconds, preferably 30 or more.

The second thing I've done is directional stretches in a specific sequence so as to target specific sections of ligaments at once. Length gains have always been a struggle for me due to the 2 cords of steel on the left and right sides facing upwards. These "cords" have always been impossible for me to stretch until now. Along with the sequence stretching I've also taken concepts from bundled stretching using twisting to help target the "cords". The idea is to first loosen up the weak ligaments first and then tackle the strong ones. By loosening up the weak ligaments it's easier to target the strong ones.

How does targeted stretching help? Well you don't have to pull as hard to get the same results. By using less force you also get less swelling and stretching of skin.

So here is my basic sequence. At each step I hold for 30 seconds or more.

1.) Straight Down (6 o'clock), no twist. The most basic stretch. Helps get the top ligaments loose. For me the top ligaments are the easiest to stretch, so I start here.

2.) Straight Down slightly to the right (5 o'clock), 90 degree twist such that the top faces right. This targets the left side of my top ligaments.

3.) Straight Down slightly to the left (7 o'clock), 90 degree twist.

4.) Repeat Straight Down. After targeting the right and left sides, I can get a much better stretch.

5.) Repeat Steps 1 thru 4 but rather than straight down go at a 45. Optionally you can do 5 positions here instead of just 3 by going straight, slightly right, way right, slightly left, and way left. Slightly right and slightly left are the most important though. When you feel around the base with your off hand and going slightly right or left, you should feel the stretch targeting your "steel cords".

6.) Repeat Step 5, but straight out. 5 positions is optional here as well.

7.) Repeat Step 5, but up at a 45.

8.) Repeat Steps 1 thru 4 but straight up.

9.) Edge my dick to full hardness.

That is a single set. On work out days, I will do at least 3 sets doing reps for 30-60 sec. On off days I'll do one maybe two sets doing reps only for 20 sec. Whenever is convenient, I'll try and do a set with 10 sec reps throughout the day. Ideally a 10 sec set every 3-4 hours will really help keep things loose.

A few months ago I hadn't done anything for stretching in months and I was around 7.5 BPFSL and 7.0 BPEL. But last night I measured 8.2 BPFSL and 7.8 BPEL by far the longest measurements ever. I've never broken 8.0 BPFSL, not even once. Everytime I would get close my dick and measure 7.8 or 7.9 BPFSL, my dick would get fatigued and turtle.

The second thing I've done is removed 90% of my girth workout. I only do girth workouts on workout days after I've done 2 or 3 sets and my EQ has dropped because I had a really awesome length workout and even those are limited. Given my stretches, my girth workouts are limited to jelqs and what I would call a reserve jelq or modified horse squeeze. I do a light stretch in the natural direction of my erection and then do a reverse jelq. Ideally I'm about 3/4s erect so that it's a bit more intense. The idea is that I am forcing blood into the base where the ligaments have stretched out the most.

That's really all I've done for the past few months. As a result I've regained the 1/4 inch I lost and gained another 1/2 inch. The other night I went to put on a brand of condom I've used for years (Crown Skinless) and I couldn't roll it all the way down. It stopped just shy of my pubic bone. I couldn't believe it.
