Lol, this thread is interesting. 14 years ago when I learned about jelqing, I shared this sentiment..
Well, fast forward 14 years, and I can tell you that I like the newbe /noob /beginner routine. I’ll share why:
1. It’s super safe. Even back when I was quite the idiot, had a knack for destroying things, and having experiments going horribly wrong, I never injured myself with these techniques and routine.
2. The beginners’ routine is like baking. For those who know how to bake cookies, cake, bread, etc - it is all about going through the steps and measuring precisely. 99% of bakers just can’t “eyeball” it, or skip steps, or be negligent, or they will screw up. Having finally learned how to bake (and jelq properly), I learned the importance of following the steps as written and not winging it.
3. After disciplining myself and following the videos, pictures, instructions. Advice from veterans. I finally see the positive PI’s, the improvement in EQ (wasn’t important when I was in my teens). Now that I’m in my 30s, it is important.
That is all. I am a noob.
