First week in, and looking forward

Hey there!

I began PE after much reading and researching, as I really like my penis, so I’d rather not hurt ‘em. A bit about me.. I’m 24, and I’m currently overweight, but losing. I’m beginning a much more rigorous cardio workout and diet, so hopefully I continue seeing weight loss.

As for PE, so far it seems to be going well. I’m using the Newbie Routine: 5 min warmup, 5 min manual stretching (30x sets of 10 sec. Stretches; L, R, you, D, SO), 10 mins of dry jelqing, and finally a 5 min warm down with some kegles. I generally kegle throughout the day as well. I’m doing 2 days on, 1 day off.

My current stats are NBPEL 4.75”, EG 3.75”, so I’ve got plenty of room for good gains :P. My current goal is 5.5” NBPEL and 4” EG. Other than that, I’d love to see an increase in my flaccid hang. I tend to turtle randomly throughout the day (probably partly due to the weight), and I’ve always been a grower.

Just posting here for a bit of accountability. I’ll probably keep an update every week or so. Luckily, I’ve always been pretty confident with myself, despite the lower size and weight, so I’m going into PE with my chin up. I see it as another way for me to be happy with myself, and that’s my primary focus. I’m not rushing to see huge, immediate gains - just playing it safe and see what I can do.

Thanks for reading :) I’m going to try to be somewhat active here, as there’s always good info to be read, and it will keep me involved with my routine.

Cheers!

Welcome. :)

I strongly suggest taking bone pressed measurements as well, especially if you are planning on losing weight. The “fat pad” in the pelvic area tends to fluctuate even when body weight stays the same, which can make it difficult to track increases in penis length. Bone pressed measurements are your best bet for accurately tracking how much of your progress is from PE and how much is from weight loss.

Good luck! :up:

Go for it,are you doing 30 sets of 10 seconds each stretching?

Welcome and good luck! :-)

Thanks!

I took bone pressed as well - 5.5” BPEL. I just forgot to post - thanks for that though. I really didn’t think about it fluctuating much, so I’ll make sure to track my progress by measuring BPEL instead.

I am doing 30x 10 second stretches at the moment, per the JAI stretch thread, but I think I will try out 10x 30 second stretches as well to see the difference.

Stick with the newbie routine for a few months and remember to use the BPEL & BPFL if you want to be more accurate. Good luck with the PE & getting rid of the fat pad! :)

Let me add another Welcome to Thunder’s!

If you haven’t done so, record your baseline measures in a safe place for later reference—just so you don’t have to try and remember exact numbers months down the road. I’ve learned not to trust my memory, anyway.

You might also want to make repeat measurements of your penis size (the usual bone- and non bone-pressed, flaccid and erect) just to verify consistency. It does take a little practice, and obviously erection strength can vary quite a bit from one day to the next.

Successful weight loss ought to net you some measurable ‘gains’ all by itself. I lost about 30lbs last year, which isn’t all that much given my height of 5’-11”. But I did definitely lose some fat over my pubic bone—I can feel the difference running my fingers over that area, and estimate that another 1/4” of erect length came my way just from improved body composition. Of course I had that length all along; but it was cleverly hidden.

Stick carefully and cautiously with the Newbie Routine. It’s main purpose is to help your penis become conditioned to the stresses of enlargement exercises. There is always risk of injury in PE, and over time the veterans have found ways to minimize that risk—thus the “Newbie Routine”. You might even have to back down from starter recommendations for a while depending upon the reaction of your penile tissues. Let your erectile quality (EQ) and physiologic indicators (PIs) guide the way, always, in PE.

Read and absorb as much as you can from the information provided for newbies. Lots of guys have gained well from that sort of routine, given a willingness to stick with it.

Good luck!

The PE Data Site available at the bottom of this (and every) page, is a great place for recording stats and progress. ;)

Welcome Swayyze.

Good luck! We are starting around the same time and around the same stats.

Hey guys, just picked up on the measurement issue regarding erection strength.
Sometimes I can measure myself at two different points in the day (length and girth) and differ by a sizable amount; so it’s hard tell if ‘m gaining or not haha.
Does anyone have a system to improve consistency when measuring?

Some guys measure bone pressed stretched flaccid (for length).

It is probably the most consistent way, but doesn’t always correspond directly to erect length.

Ah ok, I’ll give it a go - Thanks ^^

The flaccid stretched length is also valuable for those who suffer from ED. When I started PE, I didn’t give much consideration to the stretched flaccid measure, but I didn’t think it through. We tend to be most focused on the size of our hard-on. That’s what you screw with after all.

Otherwise, you just have to pay more attention to the nature of your erections. You get a pretty good awareness of best wood compared to ‘good enough’ wood. My experience in my middle age is that best wood is going to happen in the morning due to highest testosterone levels. In my teen years, best wood happened all day long—sure do miss that part of those years.

Welcome to the club, and good luck with your routine.

p.s I think you will reach your goals really quick and then go on to gain 3x what you hoped for

Your first week mine is first day man wish me luck
