Wanted to say hello.

I have been reading/lurking and PE’ing for several months now, and decided it was time to officially join the community. I also felt that because this is a free site, and I have already seen benefits, that I am obligated to share with those who may be curious about PE or just beginning their PE journey. I also feel obligated to add to this wonderful body of knowledge.

So to those who might be reading wondering if this is some kind of giant shared delusion, I can assure you it’s not. I stumbled on this site in May of this year, and began reading, and reading, and reading. After a month I was ready. I took my first measurements, set my goal, and started tugging on my unit like so many that had come before. On 6/16/08 my measurements were: EBPL=6.5 EG=4.75.

For the first month my routine was sporadic, to say the least. In fact I didn’t bother to measure again until 8/17/08. I was shocked to see my measurements had changed at all. My new stats were: EBPL=6.8 EG=4.8.

I decided this was worth getting serious about. And as of this writing I am: EBPL=7 EG=5.

My goal is EBPL=8.75 EG=6.5 and I feel that with the help of this site and the wealth of collective knowledge it provides, I’m going to get there.

Peace and happy tugging

Welcome to thunders kegeler elf. I’m sure you read the the forum guidelines and please do abide by them. Respect thy fellow brother and you should be okay here. Now then, you have very fast gains, so please, share your routine with the other members here. Once again, welcome.

Honestly for the first month I was doing whatever I could find the time for, mostly basic stretches for about 30 sec in each direction. My jelq sessions were the most sporadic, maybe 100 every two or three days if I could find the time. The second month I started getting up earlier than my entire household in order to start a physical exercise routine as well as a consistent PE routine. I started following the Newbie routine to the letter on my second month of PE. I knew that I was hanging fuller and longer after each session but several hours later I was noticing shrinkage. At the end of my second month I measured and was surprised with the results. Since then I have increased my routine to:
5 min heat with rice sock
10 - 1 min stretches
300 - jelqs
4 - 5 second Sadsak head exercises
5 min heat
Kegel throughout the day(usually during my commute)

No great secret, no magic.

Hi Kegeler Elf! Welcome to our shared delusion.

You’re starting at a good size. Good luck on getting to your goals!

(Great choice of name too.)

Thanks Invis,

I’m a bit of a stats junkie so your threads have consistently been among the most interesting I have read. They have been a source of encouragement.

Welcome and Great job hitting 7 x 5, keep it up!

See you at 8.75.
