Im very sorry for not answering sooner. I´ve been incredibly busy with my final tests (for this semester) in college. Now its time for the exams, I think they call them “finals” in the US. At least I wont have more classes now for some time, just exams and then vacations. This is the first time I check this forum in maybe 3 weeks, searched for new posts and came up with 19 pages to view. I ´ve been for 2 hours reading and Im certainly skipping a lot of threads.
To answer your questions: Yes Im totally totally healed now. I am trying to go back to my initial “good” plan of hanging and stretching, only now I do very few manual static stretching. Instead I do JAIs.
Its been very hard to be consistent becouse of lack of time. I usually get up early to go to college, arrive back home late and tired and many days I fall asleep without even getting inside my bed, just lying there with my clothes on. Still, I have managed to get 2-3 hours of hanging and maybe 2-4 hours stretching a week. I have even been stretching for 20 minutes at college bathrooms when I am not able to get some work for 2 or more days.
I have no gains to report since starting again, and Im having a lot of trouble getting sore ligs. Maybe all the time off just made them stronger or I built some scar tissue or something.
As an advice, avoid the injured area, whatever you do. At first, I only did JAIs being very carefull on where I grabbed and put the pressure. This I think was the key for not re-injuring myself. On my first hanging sessions if something didnt feel right, I re-wrapped and tried again. If it still didnt feel right, I aborted the whole deal. By the way, Im not using my bibstarter becouse I cant get it on without twisting in my penis, instead Im using a PVC homemade hanger. I still get the twisting, but it is easier to control.
My only progress since my return to PE is in flaccid lenght, which is enough to keep me motivated for the moment. I will have more time to PE soon, so Im very anxious to get some real gains maybe by christmas.
How about you? By now you are probably back in business, so let me know how you are doing and if I can help you in any way, just let me know. I will answer sooner next time for sure.
Take care.
