Not making gains, any ideas?

Hey guys,

I’ve been doing the newbie routine for a while now and I’m not making much gains at all. I do it in the shower to warm up, and then do stretching and jelqing. It feels engorged after, and I notice some extra flaccid hanging. I also use the bathmate occasionally.

I’m wondering, do you think this might be my lack of consistency in days on and days off, as sometimes I can’t do it as people are home, etc. Should I throw in some dry jelq on the days I can’t do it in the shower?

Also I’m thinking of trying clamping for my girth, is there anything else I could try for length gains?

Any ideas or anything else I should try?

Cheers!

Consistency is key!

Thanks! I guess I just don’t want to be put off as I’m not making much gains.

Also, I have a question. My penis isn’t that big, like 13.5cm. I find it hard to do a long jelq like in the videos, like 4 second jelqs, will this affect my progress, or do you think it’ll still work, but as I get bigger ill then be able to do the longer jelqs?

When you try a method , do it correctly for at least 3 months.

If you did everything correctly in the technique / intensity / volume / frequency and didn t gave any gains then move to an other method and do the same.

When you find what works for you then stick there.

You have to reach fatigue. Rest in elongated state.

I suggest 3x 1/2 hour sets with 1 kilo. I would also recommend a vacuum hanging kit. I have been hanging for three months and find the combination of heating, hanging and jelqing to be really effective. Here’s the sort of thing, although the attachment on the end does look kinda flimsy

Stay away from clamping for now.

What do you mean rest in elongated state?

You don’t need to rest in an elongated state to grow.

The other question I had was I was doing jelqing this morning and I did 1 jelq, but then grabbed the bottom of the shaft before removing other hand. Is this right? Should I be trying to hold the blood in there, or should I let go first before the next jelq?

You can let go of the first hand, but the most effective is to keep the first hand behind the glans - do a kegel to force more blood into the penis - and get a grip with the other hand before you release the first hand. If you do not know what a kegel is, use the search function to find out.

Dude, I thought this was the most important part!! Why would you not recommend?

I let my penis rest after my routines. After my clamping or pumping routine, my dick simply needed rest.

Do you keep track of your training? When I was doing the newbie routine, I used an interval workout app (interval timer or something like that). It lets you setup timers for each warmup/exercise/cool down so you are consistent on volume and the app kept track of the days when I “worked out.”

Thanks for that. I don’t really keep track as such. I just count like how many jelqs etc. I really should I might get an interval app and try that!

Does anyone have an opinion of if there is a max you can reach? I mean, can you stretch that tendon?
