quick4life,
We are not here for the money. Donating to the forum is admirable, but what we offer to one another should be for free. That’s my opinion, anyway.
I suggest you do either manual stretches or hanging, but not just any old stretches or hanging. You want to shoot for a feeling of being stretched. You want your dick to feel the same way your hamstrings feel when you stretch your leg muscles. A feeling of tension, like you can feel your tissues slowly creeping to longer lengths. If you don’t know what I mean, try stretching your hamstrings for a while. Try this with different body parts. See how it feels. The optimal force is just enough to give you this feeling. More force is counterproductive.
How do you get this feeling? Not just by stretching any old way, but by the “divide-and-conquer” technique. The penis is basically a tube. But it’s not the same all the way around. The part that’s the toughest, and that I think resists growth the most, is the dorsal thickening of the tunica. This section of tissue runs down the length of your penis on either side of your dorsal vein. That is the area where you want to feel your tissues stretch.
I believe this area is best attacked with some sort of fulcrum. I think Mem had it right when he recommended stretching over a fulcrum with a radius of about 1-2”. Experiment with different sizes and see what feels best.
Your grip is of essential importance in focusing stress on this area. You want to grip directly under your glans. I suggest on overhand grip in which your dorsal vein butts up against the pocket formed between your thumb and forefinger.
If you’re hanging, you should preferably use a short hanger. I recommend the Wenchette. Various vacuum hangers might work well, too. The point is, you want the hanger to sit as close to the glans as possible, without riding up over the glans. To achieve this with the Wenchette, I would generally apply the hanger about 1/4” below my circ scar and let the hanger ride forward somewhat as the weight was applied.
Continuing with the divide-and-conquer approach, I would consider alternating sides. Pull (or hang) down to the right, down to the left, and down in the middle, all the while over the fulcrum. Shoot for the stretched feeling. Try to sustain that feeling.
As far as your routine goes, I recommend Xeno’s IPR protocol or something similar. The idea is to start out unconditioned (following a 2 month complete break). Start hanging (or pulling) with a moderate weight—heavy enough to give you a good stretched feeling, but no heavier. Hang every second or third day, increasing the force or time each workout by about 10%. Wear and ADS as much as possible when you’re not hanging. After about 2-3 weeks of this (no more), stop hanging and wear your ADS as much as possible. Continue this for about 1 month. Then do nothing for 2 months more. No PE whatsoever. After 2 months of complete rest, start in again with the same routine (adjusting the weight/force as needed to give you the stretched feeling).
Judging from your lack of gains, it appears to me that your physiology may be very aggressive at conditioning your penis. This is why I think it is very important for you to apply the concepts of progressive work (adding a bit more force/time each workout), ADS (to train your tissues to be longer), and rest (to decondition your tissues in preparation for the next onslaught).
This is my best advice, for now, and it’s what I plan to do when I resume PE. The thing I am least confident about in my advice above is the recommendation to hang every second or third day. I’m putting some faith in Xenolith in making that suggestion. Make sure you wear an ADS. I think that is the key to making the every second or third day routine work.
