Deglitching the BIB Starter, a Personal Discovery
Deglitching the BIB Starter, a Personal Discovery
I finally gained traction (pun intended) with the BIB starter. Like ModestoMan, I have taken the BIB off the shelf more time than I can remember only to induce modest nerve numbness each time, which fortunately recovered. These injures are partly my own physiology and suboptimal technique, not the BIB hanger fault. The start-stop pattern never enabled traction through long term use necessary for gains. I therefore used other methodologies over time.
(Since my last thread, I am up to 8” EBP, having low body fat the BPE is w/in ¼” of E.L. At 5’5” 138 lbs I am pleased. ) I started the BIB starter hanger about four months ago, with no injuries.
After reading the thread on the Big Gainer Interview by wadzilla (the interviewee gained from5 to 9 inches by jelquing and stretching obsessively. Also, the Eroset Oil thread was very helpful and allowed enhanced stimulation with some healing effect for more effective jelquing. So I formulated a general model based on jelquing and stretching which was the beginning of my recent progress before initiating this process I had stabilized at around 7.25” BPE give or take, +/- a plateau for several years. The Erosed oil-jelq-stretch routine was gradually yielding results, the manual stretch I found to personally be a “drag” and postulated that the BIB Starter should once more be attempted.
I dusted it off and started reviewing what may have gone wrong in the past. I found the following:
- remove the inner gel from the BIB, it tends to have negative implications at least for me, per circulation.
- cut a strip of medium theraband 2” X 16” (instead of 1.25” X 16” I previously used- not wide enough), additionally use 2” adhesive ace wrap cutting it into a strip of 2” X 6-7” resulting in double wrap. Increasing the width of the theraband and double wrapping with ace I reasoned created a more stable “platform” to attach the BIB reducing the probability of crimping induced negative circulatory/nerve implications.
- - use heat lamp, which has more of a hot tub effect in that the qualitative effects of the heat at least to me seemed far superior that fooling with a heating pad, rice sock, etc which is a hassle. The heat lamp warmth is much more dispersed – again the entire groin area is gently warmed up analogous to sitting in a hot tub- v. optimal! This is hands free heating, just turn the lamp on, position it a safe distance, and you warmed up in 5 minutes and ready to go. I keep it on the entire time, this can be a personal choice.
- Prevent twisting in a SD or BTC position by use of a bunjee cord appropriately positioned on the hanger and left leg ( a photo of this would be helpful).
- I take many nutritional supplements including, Miraforte (Life Extension Foundation product), niacin, Argentine, Glutamine, Vitamin C. ARG, GLU,and Niacin stimulate secretion of GH, as does aerobic exercise. Also vasodilatation is produced by niacin and ARG.
- For older students of PE, a chemical component can be considered (see “Patent Pending Chemical PE” thread of induction of PE by chemical means per erection enhances such as Viagra, etc.) which should be done under the counsel of your physician and used in smallest effective dose.
I have not had any injuries in four months with the BIB starter, have definitely gained momentum and size (¾” up to 8”). Continued gains appear promising/open ended at this point. I have said (using a baseball analogy) that I am not restricted to nine inning games, but play until success is achieved. Don’t give up!
