I think it is going to boil down to the amount of tissue trauma will determine the time needed to recover.
It is apparent that many different levels of trauma can cause growth.
The trick is to determine when you are ready for the NEXT re-stimulation. That is where I think the PI’s come in.
For example it has taken me over a week to almost completely recover from the one day that I did clamped pumping about 5 times in one day. As I have stated I lost 1/2 inch,and most of my morning and nite wood.
I have spent the week doing just some moderately light jelques and only now has morning and nite wood come back to high levels. I haven’t used the pump in several days so I don’t know where length is at, but last time I did a light 5 minute pump session, I had recovered over 1/4 in back.
So, bottom line is I guess you need to determine which level of force is needed for you to obtain growth, but you MUST keep an eye on PI’s or you can get WAY into over stressing your unit and see no gains or worse yet, lose progress you have already made. I suspect part of the benefit of a prolonged lay off is it may take that long to recover from prolonged over traumatizing your unit.
On a personal note, I am really starting to think that the most effective mechanism for growth is low level daily stress to the unit. Never going to a point where PI’s diminish, actually you should see them improve!
I am thinking that perhaps the ideal is to slightly stretch the tissue, just enough to expand it past its current levels, but not enough to cause inflammation.
If you can avoid the inflammatory response, deconditioning may never be needed, you would not get the “toughening” and it should minimize a growth limiting response from the accumulation of scar tissue.
Shiver, excellent post…keep it up and thanks!
I am now thinking the question to ask those who have made excellent gains is,” while you were in the stage of making excellent gains, what was happening with your nite and morning wood, as well as flaccid hang during the day?’”
I suspect the answer will be, that during that time, they had excellent nite and morning wood, and I further suspect that the daily flaccid hang was also excellent.
I have noticed that if I jelque just about right, that I get a contraction reaction for about 30 minutes, then my cock will fluff up and I will have excellent flaccid hang all day.
If I overdo the stimulation, my cock will be in a contracted state most of the day.
I believe this may be an excellent PI’s to make note of.
When I busted that small vein on my penis, it was interesting to watch its response to injury. At first the area of injury shrunk way down,and stayed that way for several days. Then it slowly started to open up to its normal width, but the areas right above the actually blow out opened first with the injured area returning to its normal width last. Now it looks completely normal, but continues to slowly expand its width along with the rest of the veins as I continue my PE.
I think that that is a microcosmic example of how our penis responds to stimulation. Too much and you get an inflammatory response with contraction, that if left to completely repair will return to its normal size or slightly bigger. If the stress is below the level of causing inflammation, there can be a slow steady expansion.
Overall, I think the more PI’s that we can note, that are valid, the easier it will be to learn to steer our rountines into a productive direction and keep it there.
