So just a quick update:
After gaining nothing for a while, I revived this thread which basically gave me hope again:
How much can you gain from manual
After starting my routine again but this time slower and more intense squeezes with my jelqing and wearing a cocking immediately after for a while, I measured again and blew my mind when I saw 7.2 inch in length and I’m starting to tip over 5.25 girth easily now. The 7.2 was during the jelqing but I’m starting to hit 7 now without that much effort on regular days.
I feel like the cockring after the workouts and some edging in the morning is helping a lot with the girth and it’s gotten comments from my girlfriend as well so that’s been a huge plus.
I wanted to mention as well, when I initially started no matter how hard I was, if I was near PONR or whatever I couldn’t get remotely close to 6.25 at starting - so to be this far now has me feeling so good and confident in the manual routines.
