Rounding the end of week 3. It's been a total of 5 weeks, but 2 of those I couldn't workout (x mas holidays) so I consider myself still within the first month. I was really tired last night and didn't feel like doing a full session. I did 15 mins of Uli's, about 10 mins of edging a 20 minute hanging session and a 15 minute hanging session. Hanging was very frustrating to say the least. I just couldn't seem to get my wrap and hanger placement right. I don't think I like using my capn's wench and am probably going to opt for purchasing a Bib. What's a $100 bucks in the scheme of things? It just looks like it would be much easier and comfortable to use.

I'm still at 5lbs and will increase to 6-7 next week. We'll see how it goes.

I will also probably start to incorporate Clamping, over the next two weeks, much in the same way that I did with hanging. I'll start with Every other day for a short session and build up to full capacity. I'll still keep my Uli's and Jelqing, as I quite enjoy them.

Shitty PE session yesterday, just wasn't into it so I ended it early.

I did 15 minutes of jelqing and gave clamping a quick shot for 5 minutes. After that I hit the sack.
Clamping was intense to say the least, thought the clamp was riding too much. The thing I like most about it is that when clamping I can do other things while doing it (on the computer, etc etc). Saves a lot of time...

Peace.

PS, I was supposed to measure last night but decided I'll wait another two weeks. I dunno why, I'm enjoying the PE and don't want to be discouraged by lack of gains at this point. I mean, EQ, stamina everything has improved so even if I'm not gaining why stop? It's just that I'm the type of person that doesn't see great gains right away I get discouraged.

Awesome session tonight. Started out with 15 minutes of Jelqs, about 85% EQ, varied firmness on grip. From there I went for some calmping again, this time a 10 minute bout. This really got me pumped. It's crazy to see the vascularity on my guy. I thought I'd play around and attempt to do a couple exercises while clamped, but to be honest I though it might explode lol so I left it alone. After my clamping I didr some hanging. I went with 2 sets of 20 minutes using 7lbs (up 2 from last week). 15 minutes in between sets. Felt good, got a really nice stretch out of it. Again, this is BTC (between the cheeks), sitting on a table that's a little higher than the chair I rest my feet on (with the weight in the middle).

Also, I've changed from 2 on 1 off to 5 on 2 off because of my relationship situation. My girl and I are in different cities and we see eachother every two weeks, on the weekend. Obviously it's hard to practice PE like that, so if I do it all during the week then my weekends are free. Seems to work fine in any case. I also find it a little time consuming and tedious to spend 15-30 minutes edging at the end of a session. I mean, 15 mins jelqing, 5 min break, 10 minutes clamping, 5-10 minute break, 10 minute warmup, 20 minutes hanging, 10-20 minute break and finally 20 minutes hanging is about 1.5 hours! That's a lot of time dedicated to PE in one night. Keep in mind I train @ the gym at least 1 hour every night, and when I start dieting that's going to increase to over 2 hours a day! In any case, I kind of throw my edging in with my Jelqing, bringing myself to a high EQ and to the PONR and resuming jelqing as I see fit (the majority of time is spent jelqing).

Another great session yesterday. I got home a little early from work, so I decided I'd do a 10 minute clamp. I did some edging while clamped and wow - that shit is intense!!! I literally could have gone past the PONR rubbing it with 1 finger. Afterwards I went about my business. Later that day I was looking down and thinking I looked quite plump, not sure if it's a gain or just from the PE of that day. In either case it's a good PI.

Later that night I did some hanging as well, 2 sets of 20 min @ 7 lbs. The hanging went well. I've realized that it's just going to take time to get used to everything. I think I need to wrap more so I'm giving that a shot. Currently I'm wrapping about 2 times around with a thin t-shirt, and 3-4 times around with an Self-adhering bandage. I'm going to cut a larger piece of T-shirt and wrap 4 times with each...just to see how it goes.

Also, today I'll do 1 set with 9lbs and then It's my 2 day rest period. I have a little theory about increasing the the weights on hanging, which I'll explain another time. I made a mistake in my earlier post, it was my 4th week and not my third. This will conclude my 5th week of PE (end of 7 weeks since I started).

As a final note, some might say I'm pushing too hard...and I do agree that I'm going beyond what is recommended for a newb. However, I'm using PI's as my indicator. My EQ is still great, all else seems to be going well. I would rather push myself past my limit and find my limit to back down from. That way I know I'm getting max gains. When it comes to hanging some say you wont really get gains until you've hit around 10lbs, I'm getting close to there and my next measure will be at the end of next week. We'll see how it goes.

My current routine:

15 minutes Jelq
5 mins rest
10 minutes Clamp
10 minutes rest
10 minutes warmup
20 minutes hang
10-20 minutes rest
20 minutes hang

I'll be adding another clamping session next week, loving it. I also have another theory about clamping and jelqing and why they should be done in that order...which I'll explain later again. LOL Look at me go, 6 weeks under my belt and I've got all kinds of ideas!! I guess I should get some gains first before I go around all cocky LOL. In all honesty though, I'm enjoying PE very much thus far. I'm excited about it.

End of week 5 today. Last night was an intense session. Did a good clamping/edging session for 10 mins. Next week I'll be including another clamping session. Didn't do any jelqing, it was a bit of a long/stressful day for me. Clamping and hanging is less physical work, however much greater intensity.

I hung @ 9lbs. I wasn't able to just hang it straight out, I had to slowly use my hand to get used to the heavier weight. I did this over a period of about 3-4 minutes. Once I was fully hung I could really fell the stretch. It was probably my best hanging session yet. About 10 minutes in I really started to feel it very deep in my ligs...as in I could literally feel them pulling and stretching. It got to the point where it was a little intense, and I decided I should stop there. I don't want to risk any injury here. In any case, I pushed myself hard today because I have a 2 day rest period. The idea behind it being that I do some "overload" work the day on Day 5, followed by 2 complete rest days. That I will have induced some damage - which is to be repaired during the break - thus allowing me to come back on day 1 and hang with the same intensity much easier. We'll see how it pans out on Sunday again.

Besides that, after hanging with 9lbs you my buddy was massive! I've never had such a large and plump flaccid. I've never been "impressed" with myself like that, but yesterday I can say that I was. Hopefully next week the ruler will reflect it.

Later.

Full session last night. Stuck with only 1 set of clamping + edging for 10 minutes. I might try for two sessions today, and maybe do some light jelqs while clamped.

Hanging went really well, did 2 sets of 10lbs for 20 minutes. 10 lbs really gets a deep stretch into the ligs. I can imagine why people are really growing with 20 and 30lbs on there. My last two hangs went really well as far as comfort, I wrapped a lot tighter than previously. Funny, most people seem to have the opposite problem when wrapping. Anyways, I'll continue to wrap that way and hopefully everything stays good.

My flaccid really varies throughout the day so it's hard to tell if anythings changing there. However morning wood is great and looking down sometimes I think it looks bigger, though it could just be in my head. 1 week away from my first measure in a month - also my first measure since I started hanging. I've decided not to worry too much about the measurements as I know gains will come. However, If I don't have any gains in any direction I'll think about changing up my routine - probably for something less intense. if I am gaining, I'll keep it going as usual.

See ya.

Oh ya, I went to purchase a bib started but for some reason it wouldn't take my CC...I didn't really want to send funds by mail but I just might. I think a pro hanger will come in handy with much heavier weights.

Shitty session today. Only managed 20 minutes of hanging. Just a bad day, really stressed out. Major probs @ home, at work and with the girl. Hell of a fuckin day to be exact... Plus i think with the extra weight I need to wrap more - I have a sore spot. In any case, tomorrow is another day/session.

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

I thought I'd include that my "overload" theory seemed to work. Thursday hanging with 9lbs was too much - IE I had to start really slow and I had to stop early. So I'm thinking I (micro)tore up the ligs quite well and gave them 3 complete nights of rest. Sunday, 10 lbs for 2 sets of 20 minutes was almost no problem. I could lower the weight at full intensity right away, keep in mind I'm hanging BTC so it does cause some discomfort on the skin.

Another thing to note is that I've been doing warm up in the shower - no particular reason other than I usually get home from the gym and am sweaty/tired - a hot shower feels good. It seems to be working fine as well.

5 days from measure...

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

Clamped for almost 20 mins today. Did some edging and jelqs, sporadically will clamped. It was good.

Hanging went really well, but I was only able to do one session. I really felt this one in a good way. I'm still a bit sore, but this week I'll be doing a 3 day, 4 night rest this week I think. I'd like a nice long recovery. I might do some girthwork and leave out the hanging/stretching.

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

After doing some more reading, looks like I've been clamping a little wrong. I've been getting fully erect prior to placing the clamp, which isn't correct. You should be @ around 30-40%, place the clamp and then stimulate to full mast. I'll be sure to do this from now on. I'm sure it will also be easier because sometimes I lose it fiddling with the clamp, especially if I pinch something :P

Decent hanging session again last night. 10lbs for 2 sets of 20 minutes. Tonight I'll be doing my "Overload principle" and hanging with 12lbs for at least 1 set. I'll think I'll be doing 1 more month of lig-focused hanging and then include some tunica stretches. I also think at that point I'm going to switch to a 1 day length, 1 day girth routine. If I'm adding more sets it's getting really long. Plus guys like Red have proven that short, very intense sessions work well (my bodybuilding follows the same principles).

Clamping went horribly though...I got, uh, "carried away" and had an accident lol. For those that don't clamp...it really makes for a good finish, probably the best i've ever had especially if your edging. Extremely intense. I just need to remember the goal is girth here, not pleasure LOL!

Another thing I would like to note is the difference between doing it by myself self or with porn. With porn, everything is focused on visuals. It's bland. For me it's hard, fast and without any real pleasure, just a release. Doing it by yourself really forces you to focus on your member and how it feels. There is a major difference in how I do it while watching a video and how I do it alone. My technique totally different! I can honestly say that I enjoy it much more, by myself or with someone since ceasing to watch porn. Unfortunately I didn't know any different when I was younger, as I had my first computer at around 12. Porn was already widely available and pushed down our throats. For me, it was totally normal and no one talked about it or told me otherwise.

I hear you brother! I just deleted all my porno clips from my hard drive. The millionth time! Now I wanna go on edging without it only with my imagination. But I am sure I will some day download more clips. Sometimes it is nice to see some naked girls on screen.

But I know what you mean. It does feel better when you can really get into to it without porno. Much better!

Take it easy mate.

Taking an early day off. EQ has been steadily decreasing, I'm sure it's a sign of overtraining. 4 night of complete rest should have me back at it like a champ. Gotta listen to the body.
