Wall press for accurate hands free length measurements

I’ve found this little trick helpful and just wanted to share.

It’s very easy to measure BPEL incorrectly and to cheat based on the angle of the ruler, the angle of your hips, where you are pressing, etc.. In order to properly track and document your gains, you want your measurements to be as consistent as possible each and every time.

I’ve found a good technique for consistency in measuring bone pressed erect length is to stand facing a wall and then press the ruler between your fat pad and the wall. Keep the ruler parallel with the floor (level) and keep your knees unbent. Lean forward and use your pelvic bone to press the ruler into the wall and take a hands free measurement. Since you are hands free, you can also straighten out the curve with one hand while photographing with the other. It also works great for BPFSL which is usually hard to photograph because it takes two hands to measure.

It’s not that serious. Try and be consistent with where you measure. The only one it matters to is the one doing the measuring,

For me it’s just a matter of data collection. I log measurements every day and found it to be a better control variable to minimize human error.

I originally was just trying to photo document my fully stretched length and there was no way to hold the ruler, my dick and take a photo. Pinning it to the wall became a third hand, but I also realized that it brought with it better measuring form that may be beneficial to those brand new to PE.

Sounds like a great idea , thanks dude 👍😀

True. I hadn’t considered that. I tend to think that measuring frequently is disspiriting. But looking at it purely from a statistics standpoint, the more data, the better. That way, you smooth out those outliers.

I understand the logic of measuring as it relates to motivation. However if you were trying to pinpoint the exact conditions that led to a growth a spurt, it is really hard to achieve this by measuring once every 3 months. Say you gained 1/4 inch when measuring at the end of 3 months. You’d never know if you gained that slow and steady over the entire 3 months or, if you gained it in a 2 week growth spurt. Perhaps that 2 weeks was a period that you got more sleep, or ate better. You’d never know. Obviously gaining is all that matters, but we are also trying to not waste time going in the wrong direction. PE is a huge time commitment and data collection is the only way to navigate our path.
