Has one day on, one day off worked for anyone?

◀ 12

I switched to 1 on 1 off after I had been overworking with 2 on 1 off. It sucked because I was working on PE harder than ever, yet my gains halted and I was still sore from the day before when I began my PE session. I also took a week of deconditioning in between the switch, in which time I did get some small gains just from allowing my dick to recover. As soon as I switched I noticed the difference and am still making steady gains with just jelqing and stretching. It is definitely worth a try because it is far better to “undertrain” than to overtrain. You could also split your exercises into different days, that might work for you.

I think the soreness is what I experienced throughout the second day after my routine. So, yesterday, I worked it, today nothing, (still just a little sore), but I look better flaccid, and I’m ready for tomorrow. Oh yeah, I just ordered a pump. (I will take that very slowly, just like everything)

Paraphrased: It is not the critic who counts: The credit belongs to the man in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, who, at the best, knows the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.

A few weeks ago I switched to a 1 day on 1 day off routine. I will keep an eye on this thread and report what I have gained or not gained. I did however find that after a one week break due to not having my room, I had 4.875 on the girth still which made me happy.

Starting 10/08 - 7.125" EL x 4.5" MSEG

As of 12/08- 7.5" EL x 4.75" MSEG

As of 1/19/08 - 7.75" bpel(previous 7.5" was due to inaccurate ruler) x 4.875" MSEG

Please do let us know how it goes. I’ll do the same.

1 on/ 1 off is the way olympic athletes workout in the gym, and it’s waaay way better than the silly 4-day splits some “body builders” suggest.

This was my preferred method, unless I forgot or didn’t have time in the shower on my PE day.

I started with a 1on/1off routine, but really wanted to PE 5on/2off or everyday. However, like yourself, after two days of PE, my unit gets real sore and EQ goes to shit.

I would usually require a few days off to recover, so basically, I’ve been forced into a 2on/2off routine for several weeks now, due to negative PIs. I haven’t seen much growth (even some shrinkage) during this period.

I happen to be one of those guys with a really “sensitive dick”, so that has been a big factor in my difficulties. It’s hard for me to jelq without causing some kind of negative PI; I’ve tried various grips and strengths (now targetting sides of tunica/avoiding dorsal side at all costs), and cut the number of jelqs way down (less than 50 for now). These amendments seem to help, but soon after I step it up to 2 days in a row, the soreness comes back.

For now, I’ll be sticking to the 1on/1off routine, but it can be a pain in the ass to be consistent with it at times.

I can say, in retrospect, that it looked like I was growing with the 1on/1off before I got too enthusiastic.

Thanks for the feedback. My “symptoms” were almost exactly what your talking about. So, I will be keeping an eye on this stuff. Marinera even said that some people go 1 on 2 off. I’ll see how today goes, and watch my pi’s. I’ll keep this thread posted.
