Day 175/ 24.12.15

After 1 month break I'm back in the gym! I had a really busy month with alot of work and I wasn't 100% focused on my workouts. Decided to take a small break and now I'm back! So starting where I left, I just did my regular routine but now increased!

Workout:
Warming up: 5-7 minutes in the shower.
Stretching: all basic directions (down, straight, up, left, right) 2 x 25 seconds.
jelqing: 100 jelqs at 40-50% erection level, with alomnd oil.
No warm down.

note:
I increased the jelqs from 80 to 100 and the stretching time from 40 to 50 seconds.
I was thinking of having a warm up week without the increase but I decided to see if I'd get any fatigue. Luckily, everything went smooth and I can fully carry on with this routine, following my 2 days on/ 1 day off schedule

After one month I'm planning to keep the same amount of jelqs and stretching time but increase the workout ration to 3 days on/ 1 day off.

After two month from now I'm planing to increase the jelqs to 120 and stretching time to 60 seconds but keep the ration of 3 to 1 days.

On odd months (Jan, March, May...) I plan to increase the exercises
On even months (Feb, April...) I plan to increase the workout ration until I get to 5 days on/ 2 days off.

Feels good to be back!
I'm really motivated to work out, I will keep posting after each 3 day-cycle is completed (2 workouts x 1 rest day)
Cheers!

Just wanna quickly report that I have been doing my routine regularly but haven't had the time to write in my journal. I have completed 3 rounds of 2 workout days and 1 rest day and now I just started my 4th cycle.

Everything goes smoothly, I'm doing 100 jelqs, stertching for 50 seconds in each direction and just added + 40 V-jelqs.
I added the v-jelqs cause I thought I'm not working out the back side of my dick with the OK grip enough + I remembered how much I enjoyed v-jelqing. So far there has been no fatigue with this recent addition to my routine, so I will keep it up!

After January, I'm starting to workout 3 days on/ 1 day off. Looking forward to more workouts in a week!

Cheers! I hope you guys are having a good winter vacation!

I'm back at updating my log!
It's been a while but I'm back at working out and typing it down.

In the past 4 months I've been on and off due to alot of obligations and a very heavy tight schedule. Out of these 4 months, I managed to not skip a single exercise all February, in March I only managed to get 1 week of training and half April and half May. But since last week I'm back on the track and decided to stay motivated to work even when the days are super busy!

I'm not gonna measure until the end of the summer, that is 01.09.16!

I'm back to my current routine and what's really good is that I think I'm finally conditioned to go heavier in numbers. I can easily now do 120 normal jelqs + 50 V jelqs and stretching for 50+ seconds. Feeling good about this!

Gonna update my log as usual, every 3 days and I'm still sticking with manual workouts and hope to get some good advice form you guys on how to proceed further.

Jelqing: 100 OK + 20 reverse OK jelqs + 40 V-jelqs at 40-50% erection level.
Oil: almond oil
Warm down: no

how it felt:
Overall a good comeback 3 day cycle, every exercise done smoothly. Right after warming up, 120 jelqs + 40 V jelqs, really felt the expansion and my unit stayed disciplined throughout. Stretching went great! Managed to hold it steady for 50 seconds in each direction. Great elasticity at the end! No post-workout aches too!

note:
I'm starting to get pretty good at holding it up for 3 days, despite being really horny. I'm also trying to avoid unnecessary wanking and watching porn.

Flaccid hang / decent
Flaccid state / engorged
Erect quality / 9
PI grade: 8 (acceptable)

Flaccid hang will be graded with normal(1), decent(2) or really low(3)
Flaccid state will be graded with normal(1),engorged(2) or really fat(3)
Erection quality will be checked few times during the and graded from 1 to 10.

After around 200 days of slow and steady conditioning, I decided it's time to get behind the JP90 routine and complete it during the summer! In this period, I started slow and really listened to my body. I achieved the following: from 20 to 60 seconds in stretching, from 30 to 120 + 50 vjelqs, from fairly firm to pretty elastic and flexible. Most importantly, continuously working out without ANY aches.

To be fair, I haven't seen drastic gains during this time but my aim had a different goal = condition and getting used to the exercises, and I believe that goal has been achieved!

Now I'm ready to take on the JP90 routine, slightly modified. The amount of jelqing stays the same 150 normal + 90 V-jelqs but I will do the stretching x 2 for 30 seconds because the tunica is my limiting factor and I wanna step up the stretching game. Working schedule will be 2on/ 1 off and in a month form now, 3on/ 1off + 2 on/ 1off. I will add edging 3 times per week too for 20 minutes.

I've learnt that it is important to listen to your body and to let it get used to the exercises. I don't feel like I've wasted time, on the contrary, I finally feel ready to really work out! I would give the advice to anyone who is starting now! Sometime it may take longer to start benefiting from the exercises, so start slow even if that means 20 or 30 jelqs per day, you will get to 150 or 200 in time and your body will get used to this steady increase! It's perfectly okay if you start with small numbers, you will build em up!

Reporting JP90 progress

It's been 2 months and 1 week of continuously working out according to the JP90 routine + 1 week break due to vacation. I just wanted to report that everything is going smooth and steady. I've recently tried out adding + 50 more jelqs and + 30 more v-jelqs to the routine. The new work ratio is 3on/1off + 2on/1off per week.
Now I completed a total of 200 overhand jelqs and 120 Vjelqs + 60s basic stretching to each direction.
*I tested this for few days and saw no negatives PIs so I decided to stick with it.

I'm going to do this workout for 1 more month and finally get some measuring done. That will be the first time I'll measure since the start of the routine. Hopefully, I've made some progress.

In general I feel good about the exercises. They feel gradually intense, neither overworking nor underworking but just about the right amount.

Reporting back soon! Keep up the good work fellow PE mates!
