Slow to gain -- advice welcome
I am an older guy (62), and I became interested in PE in July, 1999. At first, I was interested in the health benefits of exercise, partly because with age the mechanisms start to weaken, and I was keen to keep things in good working order. Soon I got interested in the possibility of growth (I hadn’t realized it could be done, and I found the idea appealing). I tried the usual internet sites offering jelq-and-stretch, but (after a fair trial period) I had no gains. I then tried a couple of widely advertised mechanical devices, but they also were disappointing. These experiments took perhaps a year and a half, and although my penis toughened up quite a bit, I had no noticeable increase. I then came across For Size, the Bib hangers, and Thunder’s Place. I continued to work, both with manual exercize and hanging, and at last made some gains — see stats below. However, I had to give up hanging because of continuing foreskin injuries. In February, 2003 I set up a new routine, combining manual stretching and pumping, following the good advice provided on this site. I have continued with this routine until the present, with approximately one month off when I was abroad. But alas, I have made no gains, and have been stuck on a plateau for over a year now.
My present routine is as follows:
AM — Manual stretch (JAI to warm up, then, 10 sec. stretches in all directions. Lately, I have added DLD Blasters) (40 mins.)
PM — Pump (5 sets of 8 minutes each at 5hg with 100 jelques between sets) (60 mins).
Late evening — Manual stretch as above (15 mins.)
My schedule is 2 days on, one off.
Measurements are as follows:
July, 1999 — ELBP, 5.75 EG, 4.25
May, 2002 — ELBP, 6.75 EG, 5.00
No further gains after this date.
I am feeling a bit discouraged, but not ready to quit (I’m aiming for 7.5x5.5, which isn’t excessively ambitious).Any feedback would be immensely welcome. Thanks.
