Is starting out lesser necessarily better

In my newbie opinion and based on results I have seen, Lesser is better “FOR ME” at this point.

I am well under 200 jelgs and not much over 100 per session.

I have been doing a routine like this.

2 on 1 off
2 on 2 off
3 on 1 off
2 0n 1 off
2 on 2 off
And into a 3 on now.

My schedule has been dictated by other activities and I have fallen into this schedule.

For example, I don’t like to jelg the day before my girlfriend comes over so if I have my day off two days before her arrival
Then I also have taken off the day before.

Looks like a good schedule.

So do you warm up before stretching?

Sir, what does static stretches mean? If I were to spend 10mins of stretches, I do them in no more than 10sec each rep?

After reading much, I have come to realise the importance of warming-up, so I do 15mins warm ups.

Great thread. It echoes my sentiments exacly. When I first started PE, I did the newbie routine and later when I started increasing the jelqing pressure and trying manual clamping, I got my first PE injury, a hard lymph vessel on the top of my shaft. Needless to say, it scared the bejesus out of me and I had to take a long break. Ever since I have been a less is more PEer. Haven’t looked back since. I haven’t gained much because I never had consistency, but I haven’t had an injury either. I believe all my length gains came from static stretching. I now do very very light jelqs, and few of them so the lymph vessel doesn’t reappear, as soon as I overdo it by jelqing at too high am erection, it rears it’s ugly head. I am substituting part of the jelqs with pumping and we will see how it goes.

Remember, nobody knows the really long term effects of PE, and I don’t want a broken penis 15 20 years down the line. I think the best way to minimize the chance of that is to use the minimum intensity that has an effect.

Good thing I read this, I think I was stretching too hard (I’m a newb) I will loosen up and try not to pull so hard.

Other than some red dots, I haven’t gotten any injuries from stretching, jelqing is what you need to be careful with, that is really easy to overdo. Clamping is even scarier, atleast for me.

How do you know if your overdoing it or hurting yourself? (Besides pain?)

Loss of EQ, a shrunk flaccid after your workout, hard lymph vessel (for me). Basically, the loss of EQ is where I draw the line.

I should have said a drop in EQ.

Well, this was a really interesting read. Awesome thread! I’ve learned some new things. Thanks guys!
