I started with 14,5cm NBP. Today I’m 17cm NPB.
Took me well over an year to get a 1” (see my join date).
You know what? Despite of having a damn slow growing rate, I’m glad I’ve made it all this time. I’ll certainly PE for the rest of my life because it’s healthy (when done properly). More importantly, I learnt how to respect myself. I’ll tell you, took me lots of frustration to do that.
My first four months were a real nightmare. I’ve had no newbie gains. I tried some hanging and stretch devices. And I always ended up sore. Measuring days always turn into frustration days. Looking everyone else communicating gains was a knife in heart.
After a while, came to my mind that I was unable to do any gains. Then, I left Thunders for good (I thought so).
Months later, I started reading only non-PE related discussions. From there, everything started makes sense since then. Today I like myself to the point of not feeling inadequate before women and men anymore.
Seeing some guys taking 4 years of workout to reach 1” or 2” was a real inspiration for me. I decided I should give myself another chance.
Once you understand why you shouldn’t be negative about this, you’ll then enjoy your staying here.
Give yourself an year to decide if it’s impossible or not. Be consistent and positive. Gains will come. I promise you.
