Those elusive gains

I think the 4 top gainers in PE have been:
Bib & DLD – about 4.5” EL
RB & YGuy – about 3.5” EL

Some others have posted EL gains of about 2 inches or so. Personally, I’ve gained 1.38” EL (with 0.38” being “regained” from my youth; so, actually, only 1 “new” inch of EL).

Goes to show how tough erect gains really are. Of course, an extra 2” of EL is very significant. But I believe this underscores how much bullshit those payguides are that claim “gain 2-4 inches on your penis” (usually claiming these gains will be quite rapid – with their payguide, of course!). Truth is, Thunder’s has more than 5,400 active members, yet how few of them have actually gained 2” of erect length? Some have gotten very close, of course – and a handful of guys have exceeded 2, even 3 inches – but not many. It’s probably safe to say that not 1 in 1,000 guys at Thunder’s has gained 3” EL; although, most here are “a work in progress,” so that’s not the final word.

But I believe that once a thorough manual routine has been milked dry of gains, guys should incorporate hanging into their routines; preferably, hanging and manual PE. I’m currently experimenting with both my Captain’s Hanger & my Bib Starter – trying out both, trying to get the most comfortable hang with the best stretch. Though I’ve logged relatively few hours hanging, to date, I definitely recognize the solid potential of hanging. After a typical hanging session, my FSL is a good ¼” more than usual. Now, if I could only manage at least 4-5 days per week of 1½ - 2 hours of actual hang time (for starters) – and do that for at least 6-8 months (working up to 3+ hours of hang time), I’ll nail that final inch of EL with ease, and pass up 8½ EL.

Hey, Wad:

Cool avatar, by the way.

I agree, the big gainers are a select few, and gainers of an even lesser degree are a rare breed. When I think about all the casual visitors that stumble across this site, those folks who lurk for a while and move on after they see the time and effort involved in making even modest gains, I think what they fail to realize is, that even a one inch gain would be well worth the effort and time it requires to bring about. I mean, an inch or two doesn’t sound like a lot until you hold a ruler to the end of your dick and really look at what that little bit of difference would mean in the way you see yourself as a man. I don’t know about anybody else, but for me, after living fifty years with what I’ve always perceived to be a small dick, a three-year investment to gain an inch a year is VERY much worth the trouble.

I’m going to make the 2” club soon - only a little over 1/4” to go. I have to work hard now for every little bit, but I still gain when I put in the effort.

A lot of guys get some newbie gains then hit a stall and give up. It sucks to be stuck with no gains for many months. I’ve been there.

I didn’t hang all that much last month. 28.6 hours. Figure at least 1.5 times, probably more like 2 times, that for total time spent on PE including warmups, breaks between sets, some jelqing, etc. That’s still a good chunk of time though, not just 10 minutes of this and that, and presto, done for the day. Some guys hang that much in a single week. :eek:

The point is that PE requires a lot of effort, even more as tissues toughen and weaker limiting factors are eliminated. If you look at the good gainers, they have all put in a lot of time. Bib, Jelktoid, etc. gained “quickly,” but put in many hours daily. Even SWM picked up some good size when he buckled down and hung 3+ hours per day, and he had been PEing for years before that.

It’s hard to keep a time-intensive routine going. With the good progress I’ve had from breaks, I don’t think it’s necessary to do it continuously until the final goal is met. But when you’re on, you must be dedicated and really “on.” No half-assing it.

To get gains you need to make a long term commitment

When I first started to PE, I BELIEVED the hype of those paysite because I gain an inch and a half very quickly.

Not anymore! I am now beginning to fully understand just how lucky I was to have made such quick gains as well as understanding what kind of dedication and determination it takes to join the 2” + club.

Dino is right, you need to make a long term commitment.

Dammit. I wanted to join the 2” without hanging club. But my gains are almost non-existant nowadays :( If I don’t get another .5 this year to get my 2” it is hanging for me I guess :)

Tubesteak,

Have you considered taking a break and then resuming with PE.
I did just that and with in 4 days of recommencing I have gained almost a quarter inch!!
Boy am I stoked.
Thanks Wad!! I took a break after reading your deconditioning thread and I AM CONVINCED.

A 1/4” gain after a 4-day break? Damn! Congrats man….only too glad to help.

You’re making it sound like hanging is some sort of despicable act hehe. Why try to avoid it?

Yeah, the gains are elusive. Also, some guys don’t need to gain over 2”. I know it sounds strange, but there are guys out there who do PE, reach a certain goal and then stop. It’s weird, I know.

One day I hope I will be in a new club. I’m not even in the 1” club yet. I hear they have better seats there and the barmaids are prettier than in the 0-.99” club.

Your avatar makes me want to puke

What! You guys have barmaids… none here in the 0.0mm lounge. :moon:

Don’t forget cutemikey. He says he went from 6” EL (he did not give his starting girth) to 9 x 6.5. However, he’d been at it for 6 years.

Thanks Wad!! But it was a 3 and a half week break, 4 days back into PEing!
Either way, a gain is a gain!

Ideal,

>What! You guys have barmaids… none here in the 0.0mm lounge.<

I was there for a long time. All I can say is….FREE BAR!!
