Variation To Stretching In Newbie Routine

Last year i tried the newbie routine but only completed on full month and didnt continue even though i did gain by 0.1.Ive started again and just finished my second and i read one post by one user saying that the best and most effective stretch was the downward stretch as it targets the ligaments more.My routine is 10 minute jelqing and five minute downward stretches 1 min each in length with 30 secs of firegoat rolls in between.Any advice would be appreciated

More effective than the downward stretch for me is a leverage stretch: run the little guy over the back of a chair, then stretch downward. The leverage point creates a lot of stress. I just happen to use the back of a chair. Anything narrow (about 1/2” narrow) works, though.

ill definitely try to incorporate that but do you think downwards stretches alone for 5 minutes is enough as part of the newbie routine?

Yes, I think it’s a good way to start. And now that I consider it, that type of stretch I mention (with the added stress point) probably isn’t a good newbie move.

I’d actually be doing the side stretches as well. At first holding for 30 seconds and then ramping up to 1 minute. Down - Left - Right - repeat. The easiest way to achieve quick gains is to stretch those ligs.Ramp up the stretching to 10 minutes as well. Once you’ve gotten all you can out of these stretches you can start looking at the more advanced exercises. Don’t leave out jelqing. This is the base move for all PE. Oh yeah. Warm up with a rice sock for 5 minutes before you start your stretches.

good luck

ill look to incorporate side stretches as well.For the warmup i dont have a rice sock so would putting my penis under hot water for 5 minutes do the trick and also for the warm down?
thanks
