Rome Wasn't Built in a Day, and other cliches.

Several things inspire me to write this to you today: some Newbie PM’s with questions that came in; reading Goingdeeper’s thread about the changes that have occurred for him; and a lot of old Thunder’s friends here continuing daily to encourage you new guys in your own pursuits long after they have got their initial goals and even after they have got them have decided they want more.

But mostly what inspires me is this:
For some reason, maybe the confluence with the moon and Saturn, some inordinate weather pattern where I live, or just feeling generally good humored, I have all day so far had the largest, continuous flaccid size. I’ve been going around doing the usual things for hours, my own work, answering phones, dealing with detail and paying no attention to PE or cock things except when I would notice, from time to time, mine was hanging heavier than usual and kept doing that. I don’t measure often but I did just awhile ago due to persistant zucchini-down-the-leg syndrome. 7 X 5.5.

Things to keep in mind? Pre PE I was 6 x 5.75 ERECT. Pre-PE, a three inch flaccid was a Big Day for me.

I know every day isn’t going to be like this but even an absolutely normal day is now a much better hang than the old-day highs of 3”.

The take-home message to this post is this: PE takes a whole lot of time, years now for me.

Stick with your program. Even when you get to the point where Dino 9x7 (for one example) and I have - where you avoid some outside, fun things to get your PE time in, try to do the PE. If you fail now and then to do that, no great consequence so long as you are regular in your work.

Read, read, read. So many experiences here and many of them contradictory. Sort through them and find your own best program, eliminating what does not sound sensible to your own body.

Do a lot of visual imaging. Don’t concentrate only on the cock you have now, rather on the one you are building. Imaging works. The brain is a very powerful and complex organ and is an integral part of your PE work.

Avoid injuries. PE is supposed to be fun, not damaging. Listen to the Oldbies. They know a whole lot.

And try to get your head out of sex, the brain one in this case, concentrating instead on the pleasures you are receiving and those you are giving. You can very easily analyze yourself out of a very good orgasm.

Over and out for now. And guess what? Typing this did not diminish the phat zucchini a tad. Still there.

Some great advice for you new guys. Thanks avocet.

Do you want your user name changed to phat zucchini now? ;)

Thanks, T. I’m still OK with the long-legged bird.

I’ve always wondered about your nick. That clears up that mystery. But why?

Oh yeah, great post, as usual. One of the hardest things to master in PE is patience and the mindset that this is going to take some time. I always hated my 2-3 inch turtle dick, especially in the shower, but now, after a couple of years, I love my 5” hang even during my morning shower. Now I won’t be happy until I get 7, damn you!

Ever since I decided to take the moderate route and PE injury free, my results have just taken off and I owe that to being smart enough to listen to your sage advise. Glad to say, you can teach an old dog new tricks.

I won’t have 7 flaccid every day, gprent. Closer to what you have. Sometimes things just work out advantageously, as they did today.

The bird is a favorite of mine - here and on the Mainland. They are long-legged, as I am, and spend a lot of their time in or near water, as I do. And I like their up-curved beaks, an evolutionary adaptation to getting the kind of main dishes they prefer, seafood.

You always give good advice.

Great post. Especially the “Oldbie” neologism.

7” flaccid hang?? Holy crap, man.

Great post av, very inspirational for me. It is helpful for me to constantly be reminded that PE is a long process, but consistency does pay off. 7” flaccid? HOLY COW! Way to go! Your starting size is around my starting size.. If I could have even close to your gains after a few years, boy would I be a happy man. Thanks again,

How did you manage a 7” flaccid hang? How long did it take, and what routine did you use?

Looks like a SandPiper but I know it isn’t. What kind of bird is it??

Enough said :D

This is painfully obvious: It’s an Avocet. If you don’t believe me, Google it.

I knew you were going to say that… LOL :D

Ok, Gprent I don’t feel so bad now. Apparently both Avocet and the Sandpiper are in the same family. Who would have thunk it? :)

BTW: Good post; avocet8 :)

You mean they are both birds? :)

Just kidding, I don’t want to get too far off track.

Thanks Avocet, your post is what I need to realize. This thread helps me with perspective and motivation. I am on week number 10 of my PE career, with the first 8 weeks being the basic newbie program. In the last 2 weeks I have switched to dry jelqs and have added lots of stretching and some Uli moves into my jelqing. I have seen very little progress so far and am starting to get down and pissed off at the whole PE thing in general wondering what’s wrong with me, etc.. I have MAYBE just a small girth gain at the base and one tick mark on the ruler in length, but nothing like the “I gained 1 inch in 2 months” like so many seem to get.

Right now I’m doing about 20 mins of jelq/uli in the AM and 10 mins. In the PM with stretching after my hot shower. Patience is what I need. I need to look at this as a couple of years or longer commitment. It’s just so easy to doubt your routine when you see other guys gaining big and fast while you are just plodding along with slow gains; it makes you want to quit what your doing and adopt some new program that MIGHT produce gain. I think I’ll just stick to the basics—-stretch, jelq, and add some uli here and there and not go overboard. With some patience and perseverance, gains should come my way.

I started 10 weeks ago at exactly 6x5—very plain, vanilla, average. Not small but I really want to take things up a notch, especially after my woman just had our 2nd kid a few months ago. A little extra would be really nice. I’m not out to get huge, bang a lot of chicks, or get to some donkey dong size. All I’m asking for is 1.5” x 1” extra for me and my woman.
