Was pleased to end the week with 104 half turns, would have liked more duration. We’ll see how next week goes.

For sure sleep is pivotal to recovery and I’ve been lacking.

I noticed right off that the head swell was not there so I wasn’t going to push it. Probably dehydrated based on the hiking I did yesterday,

Was good to get 104 half turns, but not enough duration. We’ll see how it goes from here. Maybe I’m stalling? But it mostly feels like it’s a matter of discomfort at the attachment.

This went better the tension at the end was not as high, it was much easier to remove the device. Progress!!!

So this is a new high for tension. Usually the first session of the week is the most challenging so a very good sign that we were able to accommodate an increase in tension. It does appear that there is room for another tension increase so we will be wanting to take it to 120 half turns for this campaign. I imagine we’re 4-5 weeks away from finishing up. Since the progress is leveling off that will be it for this campaign at which time we will measure and see if it was successful.

Slight pinching at the attachment so didn’t push the tension. Very close to finishing this campaign so don’t want to risk injury. Glans condition excellent at the end. Because of the slowing of the progression any thoughts of adding additional length and continuing on are off the table now. I’m thinking 3-4 weeks and this is done.

New high on tension and full duration. Looking at the tension adjustment, it looks like I have more available. Tension did feel high at the end. Glans condition good. Flaccid hang has been remarkable lately, maybe the stretching with the heat? I’m not in a hurry to get this done, but I don’t think we have a lot longer.

I think 128 half turns looking at where the tension screws are, at the end of the session. So a bit yet to go.

Best session yet. I probably could have upped the tension but I had a bit of pinching at the attachment and didn’t want to push it. While the rate of progress has slowed, we’re still seeing incremental progression. Thinking 3 more weeks as we’ll take the tension a bit further to 128 half turns.

And we will see if this campaign produced any results or if I have hit the wall.

I think we did everything right here. 240 days off for complete remodeling. Using the Total Man IR heat pad which provided a therapeutic level of heat as indicated by the ramp up in tension during the cooldown. We added a quarter inch to the length of the extender and have slowly over time backed out the tension screws to the max tension.

Regardless of the results I would say that anecdotally the application of the heat has resulted in a vastly improved flaccid. I never had a good flaccid, but now I kind of think I do. I know some say it’s not important but I’ll take it. FWIW

A big flaccid gives you a manly bulge you can show all the time. You can use it every time you take a leak. And it can give you confidence if you’re ever unclothed in front of strangers.

In day-to-day life, I’d rate a big flaccid as more important than a big erection.
