Gained 2 Inches manually, now what?
Hey,
Long time lurker of this site and finally decided to make an account because id like to share my anecdotal experience and I have a question about ADS/Pumps etc.
I discovered this site around 3 years ago, but back then I was too lazy to give anything a try so it wasn’t until I was 18/19 that I decided to give it a try and after just a few weeks/months I had already gained probably around 0.6 inches and was hooked. I started average at around 6 length but with significant girth(didn’t measure but probably 6ish also).
All I did though-out my experience so far is the same routine, basically just alternating between hard 30 second stretches and jelqing in the shower for around 15 minutes a few days a week + occasional piss pulls + longer one hour ish sessions in the bath around once per week. My then girlfriend noticed almost immediately and it massively positively reinforced this simple routine until around 6 months after starting I had gained around 1.2 inches length so then standing at 7.2ish and defo some added girth too but I didn’t measure. I felt really content/got a little lazy and discontinued my routine at this point with plans to continue later down the line.
Around 6 months later I had retained all of my length but defo lost that temp girth boost and my flacid was back to default at which my point my then gf said a few rude things that got me back on my routine.. Call me insecure if you want aha
Anyway that day I measured and was still sitting at 7.2 so I decided my plan was to get to 8 and be happy. This took around 4/5 months of the same simple 15 minute per day shower routine until I finally clocked in at 8 and even 7 girth during times where I was consistent.
It has now been 6 months since then and I have kept every drop of those erect length gains, although my girth is back to around 6.5 and my flaccid is the default I spawned with.
I have now decided I’d like to take it more seriously and get to 9 inches. I know many people here seem so believe there is a wall at two inches gained but personally, while I have of course seen diminishing returns, I feel considering how little effort it has taken me to gain 2 inches there is defo more room in the tank and I have yet to experiment with equipment of any kind which I now want to do as I live alone.
So my question is what pumps/extenders would you recommend for primarily length but also temporary girth?
Id love something which I can wear while I work or sleep ideally?
After 4 years in the gym I have maxed out 95% of my natural muscle building and so I feel I am ready to dedicate more time towards PE and away from the gym. Personally I feel the time investment is much better in PE because you actually get to keep the gains you create, unlike bodybuilding in which you’ll pretty quickly lose a ton of your gains when you take a break from training.
Also if anyone starting out has any questions feel free to leave them below!
Short notes from my experience so far.
1. Less is more in my experience. 15 mins per day has yielded me 2 inches. Who knows if more would have helped or hurt my gains.
2. Deon breaks work a charm. It seems every-time my gains have slowed or I’ve gotten lazy and stopped for a month or so my gains jump start next time.
TDLR: Gained two inches from manuals, want three inches, what pumps/extenders do you recommend?
Thank you!
