How importnant are rest days

I started PEing a few weeks ago and obviously went for the newbie routine after a lot of reading. My initial idea was to do the 2 days on 1 day off routine, but on the third day I PE’d anyway and thought I’d switch to 5 days on and 2 days off. But now it’s been about 2 weeks and I haven’t taken a rest day. Is that a bad thing, who much rest should someone take when just starting PEing?

I mean I know I should be taking rest days, I’m just thinking is there a chance that I might of damaged something or slowed down gains by not taking the rest days when starting my routines?

By the way, there have been no negative indicators thus far.

I believe rest,especially in the beginning is important.

The newbie routine is more for conditioning so you don’t hurt yourself when you advance.

Yes you can grow from it, but you can also set the stage for failure by overdoing it.

Since you just started I would say take a few days off and let it heal from whats been done to it.

Even if you havent injured it, you still have stressed it beyond what it was used to.

Then start over.

2 on 1 off or 3 on 1 or 2 off. But rest is just as important as the exercises.

From my experience rest days aren’t as important as people tend to think, especially when it comes to stretching. Advanced girth work necessitates a few rest days here and there but in most cases those take care of themselves (a lack of privacy some days or something similar). But this pertains only to intermediate and advanced PE:ers who have been doing this for a fairly long time. As a newbie I think you should take structured rests until you have a better feel for what PE is, how it’s done properly, and what it does to you (recovery patterns differ). It’s very easy to overdo things in the early stages of inspiration and excitement so having those scheduled rest days will make sure that you don’t hurt yourself.

EDIT: pocopeepee just beat me to the punch there. Good advice.

I think rest days are far more important than people think, regardless of whether you are a newbie or a seasoned vet.

Thanks guys, I’ll take that on board.

I agree. You need to give your body a chance to rest. Your dick needs to rest. Resting also gives your dick a chance to repair itself inorder grow. That’s my opinion.

I second firegoat & tntjockey.

Just looking at your stats, you gained 1.5” BPEL in a few weeks? Surely not :confused:

No WLS, I think you may be looking at my short term goal. I haven’t gained anything yet. Or you may be looking at the difference between flaccid and erect length.

Flaccid_______________Erect___________________Goal

Did Bib take rest days ? I’m taking rest days, only when I don’t have time for PE, and sometimes when my unit is very tired. My rest day would be an ADS day. Anyway I’m interested too in this problem. Why rest days ? And what is a rest day ? Doing nothing, no form of PE ?

Are rest days important? The answer varies. Some people NEED rest days, others don’t. The only way to find out is through trial and error.

Think of it this way.. Do body builders work out every single day? They recommend working out 3 times a week.. (I hear).

Why work out the penis more then the biceps?

I think that applies more to girth exercises though.. I don’t think that Stretching would need such a rest.

Sorry my bad mate, I am a little slow :iws:
