Hi! Today I will start PE, and I'm really stoked!

I've spend the passed 2-3 weeks getting well informed and reading posts all over the forums. Everyone has to start somewhere and the most recommended routine for starters is of course the "JP's 90 days beginner routine".
Keeping a log will also help me keep on track, get feedback and who knows many more.

So how did I get here? Well let's be honest, probably porn. The thought of can I get it bigger? Even though I'm pretty confident with my current length this question always came back to me, resulting in finding this website.
I'm sure I've read this somewhere on these forums, someone calling it, scarred by porn. I can relate to that since I've been watching it since my early teens.

Another thing that made me really stoked is getting a healthy penis, I really like to workout my body. Getting healthier, nice and lean. Being able to get a lean dick will probably just as satisfying if not more!

Final reason being, correcting a curve. Even though I've read that it's immensely hard to achieve this (from what I've been reading on the forums). Otherwise I will just try and get some extra gains to make up for this

So what will I be doing? I'm starting out with the JP's 90 days beginner routine and I will have 3 moments of measuring. Starting with moment number one tonight (start up). Second half way and third as a final result of the beginner routine.
Knowing myself this will keep me from discouraging myself and preventing me from looking into advanced routines.
During these 90 days I will keep a firm eye on my PI's and perhaps switch to a 2 days on and 1 days off routine.

After JP's 90 days routine I will keep off from PE for a week and than again I will REPEAT the JP's 90 days routine once more.
Why? Well from what I've been reading conditioning your penis is one of the most important things you can do and so it shall be done. Also I haven't found anyone yet who did such a thing and I'm curious to the possible results. Also to slightly honor the JP's 90 days routine, even tho I never met the guy reading the forums and a lot of his comments this guy must be an awesome guy and a pure legend.
During these 90 days I will implement some curve correcting exercises, stretching against the curve and side jelq's.

SO, goals:
- Healthier penis (higher EQ)
- Gains
- Corrected curve
- No more porn
- No more masturbation

The last one might sounds a bit odd but I think this will benefit PE itself and keep me from watching porn.
I haven't done some serious measuring today yet but the times I did my stats were:

BPEL: 6.2
Girth: 5.2

Working to:

BPEL: 6.7
Girth: 5.4

So... Quite a long introduction but after all I'm doing this for myself so better think this through and lay down a good base of information. Writing this down will also help me get this stuff off my mind

Feel free to comment or point out things like grammar! Happy PE'ing

Summary of the JP's 90's

Warm up:
10 minutes warm up with a washing cloth or shower. (looking into rice sock)

Stretching: Note* try stay flaccid, less than 30% is ideal.
1. 20 helicopter shakes
2. Stretch to left and 25 quick kegels
3. 10 circle stretches left and right
4. Rinse and repeat step 1 - 4, but now stretching right, straight out, straight up.
5. 20 helicopter shakes

Wet jelqing: Note* be arround 60% to 70% erected. Lube!!
1. 50 Wet Jelq's (1 rep is both left and right hand)
2. 30 V-Jelq's (Alternate, up left, up right, ... 1 rep is both left and right hand)
3. Rinse and repeat step 1 - 2 three times.

Warm down
1. 6 minutes of warm down with a washing cloth or shower (looking into rice sock)
2. 100 reverse kegels (keep going for that perfect form, look into kegels thread/ stickies)



Questions/notes:
As I mentioned in my introduction I'd like to work on correcting a curve as well, would it be smart to implement an extra set: Stretches to left and 25 quick kegels? (since my curve is to the right) this would make the following routine: Stretch left, right, straight out, straight up and left again.

And for jelqs implement an extra set: 20 side jelq's to the left? 60 in total.
Not certain side jelq's are an advanced exercise otherwise I will definitely not use them.

Having a curve is a good thing, learn to use it, I don't recommend making any changes to the beginner's routine before you are conditioned (90 days).

Ok! So yesterday should have been my first day of the JP's 90's. But since I've only read about the exercises and never really did them I used yesterday as a practice day! Most of the exercises were pretty straight forward but I had some doubts about the tension I had to apply and about the jelq's and V-jelq's.

So what did I do?
I did all exercises of the routine but in a smaller amount and only focusing on form.
All went pretty easy and even tho I had some doubts about jelq's they went quite good!
The amount of force applied during stretching was enough so I felt a firm pull back and a little tug during the kegels. Same with the Jelq's firm grip, not tight, just enough to feel blood flowing to my glans. At the end looking if my glans was more red than before, and it was! So that's a good thing.

Results:
Maybe results is a big word but after the practice day (in total about 30% of the original routine) I had a nice hang and currently still do! (next morning) Overall this definitely is going to be a great work out! Just like a body work out when u are more buffed afterwards, the same looks and feels for your penis. It feels satisfying!

Now I can finally say, today will be my first day of the JP's 90's routine! STOKED!

[Bravekaptain Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close Bravekaptain]

Day 1 of the JP's 90's:

Notes:
The routine went quite nice! No negative PI's only Positive or neutral PI's.
What I did notice is that the amount of skin pull during jelq's sometimes was quite high so half way I started to slow down on jelq's so I could use my other hand to hold my balls, this way skin pull became less. Not sure this is the way to do it tho, so I need to go back for the jelq sticky before I do my second day. Another thing, I need to keep better track counting my jelq's haha! ;p I was so focused on form I forgot the count many times.

Stretching went quite good as well but with those 10 circle stretches left and right it sure took a lot longer than expected. During these sometimes my balls get in the way, but it's not that big of a deal.

Day 2 of the JP's 90's:

Notes:
The routine went good! Again no negative PI's only Neutral and one positive PI already. I'm not sure when you should start seeing positive PI's but I assume only being on day 3 of the routine you don't start seeing them all right away. So I hope to see some nice increased morning wood in the next couple of days or next week.
If not I might need to apply a little more force since I haven't experience any negative PI's. But let's not rush! Only on day 3.

Stretching went good, jelqing went good and I didn't lose count Afterwards a nice hang and a red glans which indicate work out and lean towards positive PI. Reversed kegels I might need to do some extra reading on, I do feel I'm lowering my pelvic floor but it also feels like I'm just tightening my abs.

Edit extra note:
I might need to look for myself how my current EQ is, because for Jelq's an erection of 50-70 % is recommended, last night during Jelq's I stayed erected but not that hard (so I thought), but now I start to doubt because maybe I'm jelqing with too hard of an erection.

Ok! So im a few hours away from work out number 3 and I'm stoked.

Did some extra reading on reversed kegels and I got a better understanding of them now, even though I was doing them correct I need to watch the tension in abs and possible other muscles in my body. Keeping in mind my breathing will also be important

Today I will watch my % of erection during Jelq's I found out that I didnt do them with a too high of a % these passed 2 routines but I would like to do them with a bit lower in erection %. Just for safety. During Jelq's I will also loosen my grip a bit, let's take things slow and relaxed today

Question:
Maybe the answer is obvious but I assume u can overtrain your BC muscle? So is it possible that you get muscle aches in your BC muscle? If u do should u stop PE and take a day off or just keep doing the routine but go easy on the kegels?

Reason I'm asking is because I might have been going to hard on those kegels and reversed kegels. Guess I'll find out tomorrow.

Pelvic floor muscles can be over-trained, you have to take days off, as don't do too many reps.

If you feel sore, you must rest, no kegels nor reverse kegels until your muscles recover, then go easy on the kegels next time.

You may PE without the kegles if you can (if you don't have IK), otherwise, its safer to just rest.

Day 3 of the JP's 90's:

Notes:
First of all, pfew! I don't have any sore muscles in or around my pelvic floor. Like I said, I might have overdone the kegels and reversed kegels yesterday. Good thing I didn't. Also after the work out I went to sleep and next morning wow I got myself some really hard morning wood! Higher EQ and healthy penis here I come!!

So overall again a fairly OK workout, like I wanted I stayed on a lower % erection during jelq's although I have to admit it felt a bit too low... haha I will keep trying to go for that perfect % With the lower % it didn't feel like enough blood was rushing to my glans. Stretches went good, I was staying flaccid. I used a rice sock to warm up! It was nice and easy and darn that thing gets hot :P

I tried V and normal jelqs while I sat, didn't really turn out that good I got hard way too fast, I assume while sitting it's easier for IK or just feels like I'm trying to masturbate.

On my next try I will try and again use a higher % erection for jelqs. Grip was fine, might need to take it a bit slower on the jelqs. Just that little extra time

Question:
I have a question about "turtleing" or just when your penis contracts because of cold or no blood flow.
Is it bad? I like to work out my body and of course once in a while it gets cold. In those scenarios I sometimes tend to turtle up, is this bad or will it go against PE? For now if I notice I will do some quick kegels or do a few helicopter shakes (if I can pull my dick out) to get the blood flow back up there.

It is a normal reaction, don't worry about it.

Day 4 of the JP's 90's:

Notes:
I see now I forgot to post my day 4 of my routine this last friday! So here it is! It went good, but surely wasn't one of the best ones I had the passed week. I got hard quite a lot of times during stretching, Jelqing went good as far as I can remember! I took extra time for the routine just to focus on form and force

Since I did a practice run on monday I chose to keep the weekend off, 5 days of workout and 2 days rest, even though monday wasn't the official start of my JP's 90's routine. I didn't had any negative PI's or what so ever, but those 2 days off sure did me good

Today will be day 5 of the routine. It's back to the start and let's see how it goes! Time goes by fast! A week has already passed! This week will be even faster I assume because I have a weekend with friends and it's going to be a blast!

Also I wanted to add something about porn since I didn't mentioned it last week.
I've set this goal because I sometimes watch porn and I don't no why.. there were times I even looked at woman during my daily life just as if I were watching porn. Pure lust. In other words addiction? I think so.
The good thing is I am already clean for about 1 month or more but sometimes I slip and start watch it again and get back into it even faster than before! I want to get clean from it for a 100%. No temptation, no nothing. A good and proper view on woman and how to love them
I think porn has a very big influence on this, in a BAD way. And be honest who doesn't want to truly love his (future) woman. Since I didn't have a starting date of when I stopped watching porn I decided to make and start this goal next to my PE goals.

So that means, 1 week no porn!

Day 5 of the JP's 90's:

Notes:
After those 2 days of rest my routine went good! Stretches went nice but got hard really quickly. I found a trick that if I tighten my abs erection goes down quickly enough to get back into stretching ;D

Jelq's went good! I do my jelqing more downwards so possible more blood gets into my glans. I found that this also gives me more feedback on if I am doing my jelqs correct.

I'm still experimenting on if I should stand or sit during the routine, I find that standing during stretches is obviously the best choice to go. During Jelqs I find that normal jelqs can be done while standing, V-jelqs depend a bit on my erection level. I tend to lose some erection % during V-jelqs because I do them more in an upwards direction.

If I start losing my % during V-jelqs I am sitting down because that raises my erection %. (why? I don't know but perhaps maybe better bloodflow, tighter muscles in the pelvic floor?) Also 1 - 3 kegels can do the trick.

Question:
V-jelqs need the same amount of % as normal Jelqs? Anyone maybe has a nice link towards a v-jelq sticky or a good thread. I can't seem to find anything or maybe I missed it.

Day 6 of the JP's 90's:

Notes:
Woah! Stretching went gooood! I stayed flaccid really well compaired to the last day! Other than that there wasn't any difference to the previous sessions. Now it's all about get my shit together and stick with the routines! I need to be patient

Jelqs and V-jelqs went good! I found a nice thread about it and did my research

Not really much more to add, oh one little thing, are there any suggestions on how long circle stretches should last? I do them for about 2-4 seconds each spin. Should that be enough?
