The Aggregation of Marginal Gains

Ay caramba. I’ve finished the cycle at 15.8cm (6.2”) and it’s been the most comfortable for some time. I managed to do the planned 93 hours over 20 days racking up the following daily hours: 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 0, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5.

It felt good to get some consistency back and now I’m ready to move onto an extender length of 16cm (6.3”). It always feels a bit more satisfying to hit a whole new centimetre or inch. The plan is do another 93 hours and then assess.

Now that the half foot is properly done I can turn my attention to beating Igigi to the foot long 😅 more seriously I can start to dream about one day reaching 17cm. One day.

Extender length of 16cm (6.3”) all done. Kept up the consistency which seems to make a difference for me and now I contemplate moving onto 16.3cm (6.4”). After all this time I’ll finally be attempting to extend beyond my current BPEL 16cm (6.3”) so this is when things could start to become a whole lot more interesting.

Over the last 19 days I managed the following daily hours in the rack: 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5.

Keep up the good wood, mis amigos.

16.3cm (6.4”) is consigned to the history books after 93 hours extending. Over 20 days I managed to rack up the following daily hours: 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 4, 3, 6, 6, 6, 4, 3, 3.

All went quite smoothly and now I face the prospect of adding a 0.2cm (0.1”) rod and moving up to an extender length of 16.5cm (6.5”). Wish me luck, amigos.

Still no noticeable increase in my BPEL from 16.3cm (6.4”). Realistically I don’t expect to see much increase, if any, until I’m extending somewhere north of 17cm (6.7”). Interestingly, and somewhat surprisingly, my girth seems to have increased further. Now 16.35cm (5.25”) MEG. I don’t know what my girth was when I started but I recall measuring it after a month or so of extending because it felt a bit chunkier and it was 12.7cm (5”) then. I wasn’t aiming for girth gains yet but I’m happy to take it.

I also recently started with andro extender and I think I had a similar experience to you.

Even though I followed the instructions, I felt too much discomfort with the prescribed personal set up (BPEL minus 4cm). Glans always going blue, cold and numb, but if I’d loosen the noose I’d slip out. I also guess different individuals have different levels of flaccid “stretchiness”, but I had to put my ego aside and remove 2 pieces, now it’s better.

Still ordered some silicone sleeves to create a better fit, but I think having less of a stretch in favour of no injuries and gains is worth it.

Best of luck with it, it’s definitely a bit of a grind but it’s part of my daily routine now so I don’t think about it much. Oddly I’ve never really suffered any discomfort wearing the extender unless I try to hold on for a longer session. I find no more than 1 hour at a go is my sweet spot and I seem to be able to do that multiple times a day without any issues. I’d suggest adding a heat source if you haven’t already. I think you’ll probably get conditioned to it over time.

I still have the least stretchy wang in the western world but it’s slowly and surely being stretched out. I find it’s tighter the first couple of times I strap in each day and then the later sessions are easier when it’s loosened up.

I think I got over excited in my earlier post. I said “Still no noticeable increase in my BPEL from 16.3cm (6.4”)”. I meant no increase from 16cm (6.3”).

Also I said “Now 16.35cm (5.25”) MEG”. Another error, should have said 13.35cm (5.25”). I must have been in very optimistic mood earlier.

Hey Jigolo,

Just wondering if you are using any heat in your protocol?

Thank you and keep it up

Hello John. Yes, I’ve got a couple of heat pads, one FIR and one that isn’t FIR, I think.

I mainly just use the FIR one but sometimes I use the other one first as it heats up much faster. I use a heat pad for the first 50 minutes and then remove for the final 10 minutes.

Thanks for that input.
I’m sorry if you have gone over this before, however is the part of the extender you are measuring the part in the photo I attached?

Thank you.

No, my extender is a different type to that. I think that image is of a vac extender, right? I use a silicone noose to hold my wiener in place. My extender measurement is from the base ring to the tip of the extender cradle.

I’ve finished another cycle of extending, this time consigning 16.5cm (6.5”) to the history books. It went quite well, no real setbacks. I managed to do the cycle over 23 days and notched up the following daily hours: 3, 3, 4, 4, 3, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 4, 5, 5, 4, 4, 4, 4, 3, 2, 1.

I took some BPEL measurements during the cycle and I’m quite certain I saw 16.25cm (6.4”) a couple of times. It wasn’t consistent enough that I’m going to claim it officially just yet but I’m hopeful it should become the new normal soon.

Next step is to add a 0.3cm (0.1”) rod extension and move onto an extender length of 16.8cm (6.6”). This is a new personal best as I know I’ve never in my life seen my wiener at 6.6”. I’ve actually already started at the new length as I decided to try a new method of transitioning to a longer extender length. I tapered off towards the end of the 16.5cm cycle doing 3 daily hours, then 2, then 1 on the last 3 days. On the same days I started the 16.8cm cycle doing 1 hour, then 2 daily hours, then 3. It feels like the switch has gone ok so from here I’ll try to bank 93 hours and see how things are. 17cm is so close, that’ll be a major achievement for me.
