As you can see from my signature, I gained an inch in length before I started working out. When I started working out, and modified my routine, and started eating a healthier diet, and drinking water instead of soda, I gained more length. I added the part about weight loss, because I must have lost some of my fat pad when I lost the weight. I have no idea how much is from weight loss.
I don’t consider myself an expert in PE at all, I am still learning more everyday. My routine is not as consistant as it should be, but I have a hectic schedule to work around.
My opinion about PE has changed dramatically from when I started. I started PE with the attitude “I’ll try it for 6 months and see if it works.” Since then I have gone thru phases of disappointment, times when I reached a plateau where I was getting no more gains. When I realized that I was not gaining, I did not give up, instead I changed things up, I mixed up my routine and added different exercises to see if something else would work. It did work, I broke the 6 1/2” barrier and then I was ecstatic when I continued to gain.
Jelqs have always been a part of my routine, however, when I was at the plateau, I stepped back and looked at my routine to see what I was doing wrong. I concluded that I wasn’t stretching enough, so I concentrated on adding stretches, not replacing anything else in my routine, but instead adding more stretching time. I had to stretch in the bathroom several times a day, but when I did my jelq routine, I could feel the fatigue that many members speak of. I wasn’t getting the fatigue with just the jelqs.
I did a modified erect bend, to try and correct a slight bend to the left. But noticed that the bends were really working the tissues, at least on the one side. I felt that the bending was probably responsible for some of my gains. BTW, erect bends are a very risky exercise, I would recommend that you learn as much about them as you can before trying them, also learn your own limitations, and go slowly, do not get carried away. I modified the bends by doing them as sort of an “AI Bend”, I clamp down like doing a ULI and then I would bend slightly for just a second, and then releasing, and then repeating for a 20 rep set. By the time I hit 20 reps, my meat was going flaccid anyway so it was time to stop. I wouldn’t recommend that you do this exercise until you know your penis can handle the bending while erect.
I hope you guys give PE enough time to work for you, it took me a long time to get the exercises right. When I first started, I couldn’t do the jelqs right, I couldn’t use both hands, because my hands were too large to fit on my dick at the same time, so I did my jelqs with one hand and it took a while to get the technique to work.
When I first started, I couldn’t hold a stretch for more than a few seconds because my glans was too sensitive and it hurt. I had to slowly build up a tolerance to the stretching.
When I did ULI’s I couldn’t do more than a couple without getting blood droplets coming from my urethra, now I can do as many as I want, but I have to be careful not to squeeze too hard, or pull too hard.
I had a hard time understanding the explanations of the exercises from just the written word, so I am really greatful for Gandolf’s video series.
Thanks to everyone who worked on those videos, they really are worth all the effort.
There is a very big learning curve to PE, not only do you have to learn how the exercises are done, but you also have to learn how your penis will respond to them. I am very lucky that I decided to give PE 6 months to work, if I hadn’t I probably wouldn’t have gained more than 1/4” inch, and I would have given up on it completely.
Along my PE journey, I have learned many other fastinating things here at Thunder’s. I have learned more about how to please my wife. I have learned more about how a woman’s body works, and even a little about how her mind works too. I have enjoyed all of the Caption threads, and I love the erotic stories. I shared My PE with my wife almost from the beginning, and I share Thunder’s with her too. She likes the captions and stories too, as well as learning more about how my body works, and what I am doing to make it better.
I have not read a fraction of the threads so I am in no way saying that I am knowlegable about any particular subject. The only advice I can give you is to use the vast resources that Thunder’s provides. The more you learn the better chance PE has of working for you.
Sorry if I got long winded in this thread, it’s been a while since I shared.
