Reflections and Progress: thoughtfulgold

I know most of you wonder why I still do PE at all. Why I pushed forward. Why I continue to push forward. The honest truth is that the net reason behind it is immaterial. Because I have set a goal and I will have it.

I have not truly fathom The Depths to which a goal becomes a part of a person until I looked at the time and effort I have spent on PE in the left year. There is no scope or rational reason behind it other than it is a decision that I made and I will see it through. The feeling of a goal being that important is new to me. I’m striving for career goals with this same fervor. So a lot of my life it is defined by discipline and being driven now more than it ever has been. And my own view on the efficiency with which I approach PE has changed.

To get goals in life they cannot be Hobbies or attained at a leisurely clip because you do not live long enough to enjoy anything thoroughly enough that a leisurely clip is a practical approach to a meaningful goal. So, what was my view on PE 2 years ago which was a revamp on my view of PE for the last 7 years has changed again. I do not have time to wait. PE is a game of patience and I have played it long enough to understand that thoroughly. But it is also a game of efficiency and I have let that fall by the wayside up until last year. This cannot stand.

The case for medical PE and the fact that the growing Market shows promising signs of being productive even to the jaundiced eye of an experienced PE practitioner is more than I ever hoped. The P shot is one of several viable alternatives. The ultrasound based gainswave is very intriguing and has a good deal of research behind it even though the treatments themselves are exorbitant. And looking at the various surgery outcomes the oldest surgery is still likely one of the best options but it has a bad rap because most people doing penis surgery will not perform traction afterwards.

Cutting the suspensory ligament can be used to treat couple of conditions, Peyrionie’s in particular. Some of the horror stories I’ve seen with suspensory ligament surgery involved severing all ligaments holding the penis in place for fractional gains additional to thr original surgical procedure outcome. I am not completely sold on it but it is one of the oldest and safest surgeries that there is. It requires no implantation or grafting, which are where are the surgeries typically start to show extremely bad results on a scale of average outcomes.

I am at a point now where I want to be done with PE in 2 years and have reached my goals by that time. The rate at which I am gaining now does not seem for that to be possible and that can be adjusted if I make the right moves and understand what it is I’m trying to do and set those resources aside. Currently I have nothing set aside for any kind of extraneous medical procedure but my eyes are open and my ears are open to learning about things that may make my current PE more efficient or boost my current goals into a more near to reach reality that it is currently.

I will contemplate this more as this year progresses and see what I can see as far as how well I can allocate resources towards any particular medical PE Pursuit.

I know 2 weeks with no PE could cost me momentum. And I know also that I’m going to have a lot of spare time on my hands. And I’ve been seeing my flaccid increasingly more often hanging at 6” girth and I don’t want to let any of this fall by the wayside so…

That double clamping I do prior and after my hanging sessions will continue solo. That requires no weight force and shouldn’t aggravate a “no pushing/pulling” restriction. I enjoy clamping and I do really like the girth bands so it’ll give me something to work on that’s giving me results and let me learn more about girth band uses.

Plus, I can work towards a triple girth band/triple clamp session! So, that’s a goal as well.

Clamping with a girth band hence shall be known as “Powered Clamping”!

Do you consider yourself a hard gainer?

Never thought about it. I would say I gain with effort. I don’t do something and say “I should be gaining” when I’m not. So I can’t answer that.

My mind is that of a long-term PE practitioner. Being down after surgery is no big deal. Buying an inappropriately sized expensive gadget is part of the gamble. And thusly, after talking with Dave at Pumptoys again I’ll be best off parting with my Bullmaster Magnum.

It’s purpose is poorly met with a bad fit and truly needs an experienced full package pumper to appreciate it. I’ll post pics of me in it then put it on my sale thread. It’s a $300 sink that I’m going to discount but I do not have much choice if I’m honest with myself and still want to push to my testicular goals.

I haven’t done PE in about a week due to stomach surgery so I decided to measure. Ain’t a ton going on here as it is too early for hanging gains in my opinion. They should be coming in the next month or two however.

BPEL: 9-9.125”
It stays at 9” or so. Doesn’t dip but it’s still not quite the 9.25” I had prior to quitting pumping last year.

MSEG: 6.22-6.33”
This is up from the 6.1” topout I had at the beginning of 2018. This is my best accomplishment.

BEG fluctuates too much and I can’t get a good read today.

8” is it for now.
Note that my fat pad seems to be melting just a bit. First time I’ve done BPEL and seen the 1 inch mark every single time! Coolsculpting did SOMETHING!

thoughtful, sorry if someone has already asked, but could you tell me if you were doing any girth exercise (e.g., jelqing) during the first 18 months were you gained a lot of girth (to me, at least) using an extender?

I did zero girth exercises at that time. I suspect much of those gains were EQ based.

OK thanks. So you had unusually poor eq when you started and the extender improved it a lot?

I had poor EQ yes. It got better with the extender but my EQ was very poor due to several factors. It isn’t a typical case.

Based on your experience do you think girth with clamping and length with the X4 are a good mix? Is this something that is more of individual preference. I’ve read about hanging but I’m not experienced enough yet for that.

My experience says work with length or girth first not both in tandem. Especially with clamping.

Ok being that im already 5.5 in girth do you think it would make more sense to extend until i hit my goal of 8 in NBPEL and then do girth work?

I’m at 6 in NBPEL (because i lost 20lbs not bc I’ve grown) but i also have a 1.5 inch fat pad and am working on dropping 40 lbs.

Thanks TG!

Do what you respond to best first. If you are gaining doing a thing continue doing whatever it is. Period.

Don’t fix what isn’t broken.

Can you expand on the “especially with clamping statement?

Thank you
