Progress Log!!

[Cb1997 Member Find all posts View Profile Close Cb1997]

I'm going to learn from examples and begin posting my own progress log as well. I feel it will help me stay on task, get some important feedback from the knowledgable community here, and even help me improve where I can. This is the second time I've ever taken up PE, and I'm looking to not only gain an inch or two, but kick porn for good too! I'll appreciate everyone who does take the time to support, encourage, or even advise me! I'm starting with JP90 like most newbies do, and seeing where it gets me. I'm keeping a little calendar for myself to check off each day to further stay on track and to remember upcoming measurement days and milestones. I'm going to update this a couple times a week with any updates I feel should be noted and to more accurately describe how my week goes!

----STARTING STATS----
BPEL: 6.8"
MSEG: 5.4"
BPFSL: 6.7"

My main goal is to see at least one of those numbers change (hopefully by increasing lol) by the end of the 90 days. Wish me luck, and I wish all my fellow PE'rs the best!

So I started June 30th with the above stats, and plan to follow a five-on, two-off schedule. 150 Jelqs, 90 vjelqs, and the stretching beforehand. I still remember all the correct forms from the original attempt I made at PE about a year ago (that only lasted a week or so haha). I'll be putting up my first recap at the end of next week, and first measurements during PE two weeks from now!

So it technically is the end of my first week of PE and figured I'd update anyways. I kept the jelq reps at half of JP 90's routine but did them all on my 5th day. Current improvement I've already noticed is the usual flaccid improvements as far as hang and all that go. I edged twice (two days ago, and then the day before that day) and both went decently well. I've also stayed off porn for a whole week now, but still masturbated 3 times if you include edging sessions in there. I want that number lower, as where I have been with the frequent porn and masturbating, EQ has been more of 7-8 instead of my potential 9-10, and morning wood has been maybe once or twice a week tops. Porn also freaking numbed me to a lot of what I always found a turn-on in the real world, so I really just need out of it for good. Today I didn't even look at it when I finally did cave and masturbate, so while its not a total win I certainly had more control, and heck I didn't need the porn to get off either. I'm happy with how quickly the week went though I was pre-occupied with work, and then I PE and that takes out my time and even desire to masturbate (especially to any porn). Other than my lack of morning wood (and today keeping it up and solid was difficult, probably as I'm still trying to recover from the week and didn't use porn either), I have no other negative PI's, and I attribute them to the frequent porn and masturbating I just left behind a week ago anyways. I already mentioned my positives too, so with that conclusion, I think I'm ready for my second week of PE. If I notice any other negative PI's I may quit jelqing for some time (or if anyone thinks I should do that now, please let me know now).Other than that, I look forward to my 2-week measure update and to get back to you all with the results next week!

Back for another update early in my second week of JP90. I plan to keep the reps cut in half as I started and keep Friday as a day to add some more reps if I feel good. I'll bump those reps up if I'm ready by the end of the month though. The two-day break worked wonders for me and my flaccid is fuller than its ever been! Also my EQ is bouncing back for me (Today I've had a 10 a couple times on demand, and I had another earlier that was kinda random but I guess that happens)! I've been porn-free for 9 days now and it feels great honestly... its an addiction and most addictions are never a good thing. The testies are hanging much lower more frequently too! Idk if that's a result from edging, the routine, or what? (But that's by no means a complaint!) Keeping my stretches at a solid pull but there is no pain, clicking, etc. Shower warm-up for 10 mins before I start stretching, and I cut the shower about halfway through stretches. I still may have jelqed just a tad too hard last week even though I had no problems, so I'm keeping a slightly lighter grip now (still feel that blood movement though) and have increased rep time from 3 seconds to more 4-5 seconds each. I'm able to manage a 30%-45% erection for all my jelqing which is great. Nothing bad to report and I'm very happy with everything so far. Gonna take things nice and easy and see where it all takes me the next few months!

Finished my second week of the JP-90 routine (well tomorrow is officially the 2 week mark but I've finished the work-outs for the week)! I can measure for the first time in two weeks tomorrow and get to see if there's been any effect on the numbers so far! Like I've said I can already see the major flaccid change and the EQ only continues to improve. I finally have started getting some morning wood back as well, and will also reach 2 porn-free weeks tomorrow. Its pretty awesome stuff. I may begin a slight rep increase next week to see how I handle it since my current PI's are looking good! Excited for measure day tomorrow!

After 2 weeks of PE I have put on nearly a quarter of an inch of BPFSL, and saw a very slight growth in BPEL (not enough to update stat)! On top of this, flaccid hang/fullness are up, EQ is up and veins are more noticable. Porn-free for 2 weeks. All is well thus far . Hoping for some more gains closer to one month here. This week I am on vacation but will continue PE, and try bumping the reps up to see how I handle it. Be back with any updates and happy PE'ing everyone!

Its been awhile since I updated, so here we go: I went on vacay and had to share a bathroom with two other people, but I managed to get all my PE in until the last day, where I had no time to jelq and had to settle with just stretches. Also I had a long day of travel this Tuesday coming home, and was too tired to PE that night, so I missed about a session and a half total due to the trip, which I feel is pretty good given the circumstances. I got back to it though, and am now midway through my 4th week of PE. I do think after inspecting tonight that I may have jelqed the little guy a bit too hard last night (I knew it as soon as I finished), as he is a tad sore today (almost don't even notice the pain, but I shouldn't have any pain at all) so I just stuck with stretching again tonight, and may also do so tomorrow. Still no porn, and man it feels nice to be turned on so easily again haha. Next is to try to slow down my masturbating too. It has, but I still feel 2-3 times a week is a bit much. Once a week seems like a better number to me. (Then again I'm single). Well I've rambled enough. I'll get back with how I'm doing later in the week, and believe I am due for a measure this weekend!

I'm going to see how I am at the end of the day, but I still don't feel better. May take the week off to rest, as I still feel tender and am slightly turtling a bit. It's one of those things where my body is definitely saying to not PE, and I feel I'd be very stupid to ignore that signal. I hate to have to pause with a month of PE so close, but I just don't see myself making the week without doing more harm than good. I forgot to mention that I bumped my jelqs up to the JP 90 normal amount of reps on Wednesday, and feel that definitely might have been too much considering I was doing only about 2/3 of the recommended before hand. Going to wait till I feel better then ease back in with stretches. Checking back soon!

Felt better today, warmed up and stretched completely, and threw in a set of jelqs and v jelqs at about half of JP 90 prescribed. Felt good, but wasn't willing to push it, so I'll try another set or even the full 3 sets again tomorrow. I need to focus more on how much force I apply in all my exercises, because it takes a lot less than I think to get the job done it seems, and even what I consider a small force may still be a bit much. I'm a work in progress, I suppose. Back with 4 week measures tomorrow!

With my current girth I've decided that I want to focus on length, not girth. I plan to increase stretches, decrease jelqs, and only jelq at low erection. jelqing seems to be what does my unit in more than anything else, and stretching just feels better to me (plus it helps more with what I'm aiming for). I'll stick with jp 90's warm-up/stretches but maybe increase the time I spend on them, gradually of course. A set each of jelqs and v jelqs will be my finisher, then warm-down.

Well I'm about a month into PE. I've had some variation off my original path, but overall I've stayed at it and have only missed a few days. I've learned so much in the past month of being part of the gym, and have really gained some confidence in where I stand. I'm doing my best to keep it light, as I'm already rather happy with what I have and do not wish to suffer a bad injury. If I can gain without injury, it'll all just be a bonus to me. The biggest part of this journey so far has been me kicking the porn addiction and gaining more confidence in and satisfaction with myself. I have seen gains in flaccid length already, and very slight BPEL gains that are just a tad too short of being noteworthy in measurements, but its progress nonetheless. I'm in no rush, and will just continue my easy routine as it continues producing gains. Hoping for some extra BPEL in the end of it all!

Did all my stretches and added a set yesterday, but still didn't jelq. I wasn't feeling it, and I still may have stretched too hard as I turtled up from last night up to early today, where everything went back to normal. It may be my stretching and not the jelqing that I was doing wrong. But anyhow, I'm going to try 3 easy jelq sets like I started with and ease back into that. I edged today for the first time in awhile, and finished almost losing the load but I actually managed to kegel hard enough to hold it. Was happy about that as I only lost a tiny amount, and felt like I had just had a minor orgasm. Problem is that I lost my EQ after and just got bored and stopped (Doing this all with mental stimulation and no porn makes it more difficult). Still happy with that and it all felt great. I have a trip with friends coming up Thursday that lasts till the end of the weekend so I'll probably be pressed for time due to sharing a bathroom and such, so I may keep it at stretches only and very brief for those days (I think two are break days anyways). Till next update! Keep pe'ing everyone!
