I had an extender when I first started and got up to where I was able to wear it for 6-8 hours (even while sleeping). I was doing mostly hand jelqs and found my hands getting quite fatigued. But this was not a very consistent program. I stopped because I started developing a bad habit of jerking off and watching porn which consumed most of my time (dealing with other life issues at the time). For me, that was unacceptable. I did see nice gains though (call it genetics). Gained 1.5in BPEL and 0.5 in EG (started with BPFL of 4.5 in with FG of 4.0 in and BPEL of 5.5 in with EG of 4.5 in ended with BPEL 7.0 in and EG of 5.0 in over 2 years off inconsistent PE).
Took about 2 years off.
I started back after that for about 1 year. Was using a jelqing device from a company that is out of if business now. I would stretch using that device and jelq while in the shower to saved timed and allowed the hot water to be my pre wrap session (did about 20 minute jelqing and 3 minute basic stretches). I saw really good gains of 0.5 inch BPEL length and EG of 1.0. Only took days off when my penis said enough.
I introduced the Bathmate Goliath into the mix and switched to the phallosan forte. After that year I ended with BPEL of 7.8 in and EG of 6.2 inches. Routine was more consistent than before but not time where it is now. Then I took another hiatus for about a year and half. But I was up to 10-12 hours of wear time with the forte and 30 minutes in the Goliath.
Now, round 3 of PE. Way more consistent. I’m using the phallosan again, the Power J Gym, and started doing regular kegel session (I’m up to 1 hour kegel sessions. I do them while processing things at work). I’m back to where I can wear the forte for 12-13 hours. And I do about 20 minutes jelqing sessions in the morning and 15-20 minutes at night with 2 rest days throughout the week from jelqing and one day of complete rest from PE on Saturdays.
I started back with BPFL 5.5 in and FG of 5.0 in and BPEL of 7.5 in with EG 5.5 inches (so, I lost a little gains during my time off from PE). However, after 3 weeks back in a regular schedule, I’ve gotten back up to FG of 5.5 in and BPFL of 6 in with BPEL of 7.75 in and EG of 5.75 inches.
This week I took about 4 days to let my penis heal and rest (had some small skin tears from jelqing sessions). Will start back on Sunday with the regular schedule. Some buddies of mine are doing Newbie routines at the same time so we discuss our experiences with each other on this new PE journey.
