Correct measuring technique

I’ve noticed lately that if I measure in the morning then I get a much higher reading than in the evening. Can anybody explain this?

For example…

Last night: BPFSL 7 7/16
This morning: BPFSL 7 11/16

I’m pretty sure that come this evening I’ll be back to 7 7/16, but it seems incredibly stretchy in the morning by comparison. Do you think there is anything significant about this? Perhaps an optimal time of day to do PE?

BTW, my BPEL is somewhat behind the above (currently around 6 10/16 on a good day). I made good flaccid stretched improvements with the heat stretching mentioned in another thread, but not much erect gain at the time by comparison. I’ve noticed since though that the erect length is now slowly catching up of it’s own accord (seemingly irrespective of whether I PE or not). I do the heat thing 1 week on, 1 week off, though the excersise and off days remain the same. Also, I’ve not noticed anyone with such a pronounced difference between BP and NBP. Perhaps that is a factor(?)

Shiver continues to ponder his penis….

Its not surprising. If you get up and measure morning wood you’ll get a damn good reading. A search on morning wood will bring up a load of hits.

The best thing you can do is if you find a great deal of variance average between the two (or even more than two). Some people will pick the best measurement.

Best time to PE? Yes I think for some people keeping an erection in the morning will be easier and jelqing more productive. Other erection based excercises may benefit. Most of us have to fit PE around our life (or not) rather than the other way around.

Heat will always help relax tissues and make them more prone to growth.

Its good to ponder. I should ponder. Maybe I will.

Hi Memento,

Points taken, however I’m talking about flaccid measurements being different. If/when my erect measurements reaches my flaccid measurements I will be ecstatic! (though I will still want more :) ).

I should have said:
“Also, I’ve not noticed anyone with such a pronounced difference between EBPL and FBPSL”

I should learn to read.

Try taking a measurement in the evening after warming up it may simply be a matter of heat, the nights are quite warm throughout the UK atm. Heat increases the elasticity of measurement.

Personally I don’t use BPFSL because I’ve never got decent and consistent measurements but thats just me. I think its sensible to use a measurement that provides as much consistency as possible otherwise you’re measuring variantions rather than gains/losses.

Its quite sensible that BPFSL exceeds erect length. Girth pulls back the erect length. A lot of people notice a longer erect length when they are not entirely erect too.

Are you measuring BPFSL at the same angle and standing in the same way as BPEL?

I’ve developed a measuring ‘stance’ to try to standardise the results. I also measure from the forward most point of the pelvic bone, as it prevents the ruler burying into the lig area.

I’ve heard of people being taller in the morning due to gravity, but this one really confuses me!

The thing about the morning is your penis has spent the night doing workouts while you sleep, its likely to be fairly well stretched and the tissue is likely to be warm and more elastic of you measure soon after getting out of bed. It makes sense for erect length to be biggest in the morning but whether that should translate into FSL is another question.

Maybe you’re just abnormal :)

But you could test the effects of temperature on FSL by taking something thats a fairly constant temperature (cold water from the tap maybe) and resting your penis in this for 10 minutes or so before taking a measurement.

memento, my FSL is shorter in the morning because of the aforementioned nocturnal erections or morning wood. The tissue doesn’t stretch near what it usually does if even slightly erect. I thought this was rather a rule than an exeption..?

Ofcourse it depends on if your FSL is longer than your EL.

Maybe I am! I’ll try some testing over the next few days to see if I can get a handle on it, as it may or may not be significant.

Base,

You mean you’re plumper in the morning so you can’t stretch FSL so far?

>Ofcourse it depends on if your FSL is longer than your EL.<
Maybe its my inability to measure FSL well but I have a sneaky feeling that there are a lot of different ways people measure this.

Shiver,

Well PE is all about making the penis big and keeping it that way for a period. Maybe you can takes advantage and go straight from bed to ads (after the morning slash).

Yes, I don’t really stretch it. I just straighten it out.

Mayby it is. How are you unable to measure it? What’s the problem?

Me 2 Im always bigger in the mourning.!
