Gladhander's Progress Journal

Hi everybody. I'll be checking in about once a week with updates on my progress and routine.

Right now I can edge to max erection which measures 7" BPEL, hard pressed into the bone. EG is 5 1/8".

I am doing 150 (both hands) very firm jelqs at 50-70% erection with occasional v-jelqs 5 days straight, 2 days off. Doing kegels every other day, 7 holds for 20-seconds, followed by 150 quick butterfly squeezes, and then throughout the day I do more kegels here and there.

I have been doind the PE 3 weeks now, and have so far gained 1/8" EG, not sure yet about the BPEL, due to different measuring methods before.

That's all for now!

Hey Gladhander, (like your user name) Welcome to the PE Gym. Sounds like you have a hand(el) on it. *Hee*

11-07-08 Measurements:

BPEL: 7 1/4". This measurement was immediately following edging. Full blown, all out erection there. That is an increase and I don't believe it's a measurement error, as I have been doing hard BPEL measurements in the same spot, and in fact the last couple were after edging as well. Wow.

EG: 5 1/8", but after workout, EG is 5 3/8", which looks and feels pretty nice.

Eq

I should mention that my EQ right now i would give a solid, solid 10 to. Before I started PE, I was probably usually around 7-8. I am not even exaggerating. What a difference. I've never had a problem before, but now my erections are just amazing.

OK, newest measurements:

BPEL: 7 1/4" hard pressed
EG: 5 3/8 seems to be holding at max erection, which is sweet!!!!

seeing some progress, but need some advice on jelqing technique.

What I'm doing is holding my left "OK" grip at the base as far down as I possibly can, like a tourniquet. Then I use the right to slide up, very firmly. I then start to slide with the left and immediately tourniquet with the right, most often giving a quick kegal squeeze. I'm still not seeing much length though.

Hi everybody, I'm back. I've been away from PE for a couple years. However, after recently gaining a bunch of weight and seeing my EQ drop from 8-9 to 6-7, I decided to try an experiment. I remembered when I first started PE in 2008. The first thing that changed for me was my EQ jumped right away. I think just getting the blood circulating with a bit of pressure along with the encouraging feelings that come with knowing you're working on developing your pride and joy help so much with EQ.

Anyway, I decided to give it another try to see if I would notice that same immediate improvement. Well, I did two days of stretching and jelqing and BOOM my EQ went straight up again! So, now I'm back with a decent routine and I am working hard to lose all the extra weight I've put on. I'm making my waist smaller and my dick bigger and harder.

I started my routine a few weeks ago and my girlfriend actually asked me the other night, "Damn baby is your dick bigger or am I just tighter all of a sudden?" OMFG what a boost that was. Life is good!

The routine I have been using is:

1 set 30-second stretches, all 5 directions
Every 2-3 days, I do a PNF stretch
10 minutes dry jelqing, kegeling each rep (approximately 120 reps)
Kegels throughout the day.

I took the last three days off so I could get new measurements. Now, I'm switching my routine up.



Here's my current routine, starting today:

5 days on, two days off

2 sets 30-second stretches, all 5 directions
Every 2-3 days, I do a PNF stretch
20 JAI stretches
10 minutes dry jelqing, kegeling each rep (approximately 120 reps)
Kegels throughout the day.

How does this routine sound? Any opinions would be appreciated.

Well, I just did the new routine. The whole thing took me 25 minutes - 15 for the stretches and 10 for the dry jelqs. I do have a bit of a privacy problem here at home, so it's nice to know what the time cost is on the two parts of the routine. I know if I have to, I can squeeze in 15 minutes in the AM for stretches and 10 at night for the jelqs. Yes, I am something of a stealth-PE practitioner.

The routine felt great, nice stretch and a great pump. I really love the feeling of the dry jelqs. But I do have a problem I'm going to address in another part of the forum, and that is the red lesions I get behind the glans and one other spot on my penis when I dry jelq. Other than that they are great.

Okay. It's been two weeks since I started back on a serious PE workout.

Once again, here is my routine:

5 days on, two days off

2 sets 30-second stretches, all 5 directions
Every 2-3 days, I do a PNF stretch
20 JAI stretches
10 minutes dry jelqing, kegeling each rep (approximately 120 reps)
Kegels throughout the day, also incorporating reverse kegels.

Well, I measured today, and at max erection, my measurements are the same as when I started. Not that I have a lot to complain about at 7.25 X 5.25, but I am looking for a little growth here.

Now, I do have to be honest here. I see many success stories on this forum. But I NEVER have seen before and after pics from any of our self-stated larger members. It is almost ALL "just believe me because what do I have to gain by lying?" I am not even remotely convinced I will gain anything size-wise by doing manual exercises. But, I will continue for a minimum of 90 days, in the hope that I am wrong.

Now I do have some good news. My EQ has been amazing since starting back with PE. Even if I never gain anything in size, the EQ improvement makes it all worth it.

At this point, I am also starting to think about hanging. I am intrigued, but as a stealth-PE practitioner, I don't know how I would pull it off. Plus, I don't want to hurt myself!

So, my plan is to continue with my routine and try to lose some weight. As my sig shows, my NBPEL is only 5.25, while my BPEL is 7.25!!!! I need to drop a bunch of weight, and I am really struggling with that. But I will keep at it.

That's all for now.

I've decided to use my PE workout to maintain and build EQ and endurance. So my current routine is 5 days on/2 days off: 120 wet or dry jelqs (leaning more toward wet jelqs though) and plenty of kegels and reverse kegels. That's it. No more stretching.

Having been doing this for a little over a week (after a few days off), I measured this morning. And...I've gained another 1/8" BPEL!!!!!! Not sure how, maybe I just needed to back off on my routine a bit. Maybe It's just a fluke measurement, but I don't think so. And I'm one skeptical SOB! So I'm gonna keep doing what I'm doing and see what happens.

So my new measurements are: 7.5" BPEL, 5.375" MEG.

Life is good!!
