Hey dude I think you’re lucky your dick didn’t explode. The bruises are nothing to necessarily worry about but they could be.
If you are an experienced pumper you know when you’re over doing it and are not surprised when you get a bruise.
I would stay away from pumping until you have made some noticeable gains from the newbie routine.
You stated that you never did a consistent routine for over a month. You really should not be pumping especially if your pumping your dick to double it’s size and getting bruises to show for it.
I started out in PE with a very disorganised fashion and thought I was a head of the game. So when I found the newbie routine on thunders I would always add something to it like pumping.
I tried every kind of advanced exercise there is on this forum and didn’t get any gains for years. Literally years. I don’t know how I was so ignorant.
Anyway I took a long break from pe, and it wasn’t until I made the newbie a routine a true base for my routine did I actually see some results.
If you have been using your pump for the last little while I would decon for a couple of weeks and and start back on the newbie routine alone.
If you do the newbie routine and listen to your dick you should see some decent gains in about three months.
Sorry for going on a bit of a rant. Just reading through your posts, and your situation really reminded me of myself and all the time I wasted. I could be way off here though.
