Buckfever's Post Collagen Remodeling Theory with Heat

Also curious is there a consensus on what to do after a campaign with heat?

Maintain the traction for a while?

Switch to pumping?

Stretching followed by pumping?

During the session the glans looked a little stressed however upon removal of the extender it actually looked to be in excellent condition, so maybe I had the attachment a hair too tight. Another good session, got to 78% without difficulty and it felt like a good stretch that the tissues were relaxing into. Heat tolerance was not a problem.

Another good session. So that’s 4 sessions at 78%, off tomorrow, then figuring 5 more and then we up the tension.

I think people do different variations of the above. Some take time off and do no PE. Some do girth work it seems, they say this helps turn BPFSL gains into BPEL gains. I think it’s a try and see thing.

Are you getting many gains this campaign?

I stopped measuring. I should be done in 45 days and I’ll report then if we exceeded the previous max or if I’ve hit the wall. I actually have a picture verification of the previous max so I should be able to tell pretty accurately.

That’s good patience

I’m pretty dispassionate about it. It is what it is. If we gain great, if not we switch to maintenance and exploring the VED and EQ.

72% @ 37 minutes

I think I fucked up the attachment, it did not feel comfortable to me so I called it. We’ll go again tomorrow. Experience has shown that pushing it only backfires.

Felt slippage at the end so ended session a bit early. Glans condition was fine though. Session was better than yesterday but still not great. We’ll see tomorrow, maybe need to stay longer at 78%.

Okay so looks like we’re back on track. Heat tolerance was improved. Tension felt lighter, was better tolerated. Glans condition at end was good. That said I don’t want to ignore the difficulties that the last 2 sessions presented so I’m likely to delay the the next increase until the accommodation is definitive.

Okay another great session. I was concerned how it would go as I did not sleep well and that affects recovery and progress, but very good. Not planning on upping the tension(really extender length) as I had planned, I want to see a reduction in tension at this level first. This was better than yesterday so I do think we get there.

Very surprisingly from the get go things seemed more accommodating and so on schedule we were able to increase the tension. We will see how it goes tomorrow but everything went great today. There was just a little pinching of the tissues at the attachment noticed during removal.
So 9 sessions here and then 3 more tension increases. So if this progression holds looking at around 40 days and we’ll take a measure and see if this campaign yielded results and then we’ll make some decisions regarding future efforts.

84% again but today we went to a faster progression of tension increases adding 7% or 7 half turns every 2.5 minutes which got us to the 84% five minutes faster. The tension at 32.5 minutes felt decidedly higher but towards the end of the heated portion of the session at around 47 minutes the tissues had relaxed. So I think we’re okay with this, but I’ll know for sure next week when we get back on the 84% and deal with the typical small tug back with tension increases.

This will shorten the campaign considerably if the tissues can handle this, but that was not the motivation. I simply wanted to get to the max tension early enough so that there was sufficient time with therapeutic heat at the max tension of the session.

In any event 84% was handled 2 days in a row. Glans condition at end was good!

Summer cut efforts are going strong, steadily leaning up.

I want to say this went a little too well. Only thing was the heat tolerance, otherwise all systems go. We’ll see tomorrow if there is a tug back effect.
Glans condition at end was excellent.

On the intimacy front, we have a problem. I’m consistently hurting the girl, length is the issue.

It’s interesting how attitudes evolve on this journey. Feedback that initially was well received as an ego boost, falls off in terms of that.

This becomes entirely for yourself. At least that’s what I’ve found.

As has been typical this is the day in the cycle that we experience the tug back with the higher tension and today was no exception. There were some execution issues and also the noose may need replacement. We’ll see how it does from here.
