What's your opinion on what REALLY matters when it comes to results?

Hello guys,

I started doing the newbie routine a couple of weeks ago.

Everything was going well, until I started questioning myself: wait a minute.. Am I actually doing it right?

So I created some questions

There are my questions:

You see, when you Stretch, how much force should I apply? (I’m actually injured right now, waiting for my penis to heal because I stretched too much doing the newbie routine).

Does it really make a difference to jelq for 3s? Or 3 jelqs of 1 sec are actually the same thing?

What’s the intensity of the jelq?

Is it okay to warm down with the hot water of the shower? Or is the rice sock a better alternative?

These are, for the moment, my questions.

Thank you so much for your time and your answer.

Relax into the stretch. Maintain pressure but don’t rip your dick off. Jelqs; 3 seconds is better, its to slowly force the blood upwards towards the glands. Warm down; hot shower, rice sock, towel soaked in hot water repeatedly, whatever you gotta do to get the tissues warm.

These are some quotes I collected from Veterans regarding stretching:

Stixman - Stixman

Invest in an Infrared Lamp and use it for the entire session.

3 second jelqs

Search for Physiological Indicators (PIs), it has saved me from damaging myself and got gaining.

In general, learn how about I use the advanced search feature of this site. Every question has been asked and answered. It’s amazing, I am learning so much from the experience of others.

Good Luck on Your Journey.

Jelq with an erection level between 40 and 70%. Do not grip too tight, just enough to feel blood moving up the shaft . When stretching, grab your shaft about one inch below the glans and do not pull too hard, just enough to feel a slight stretch. Let your PIs be your guide as to how hard to do your exercise.

What if your skin stretches all the way to the glans from the 1 inch below point? I’ve been grabbing the base of my glans for the stretches, should I not?

Just do what he says: “one inch below the glans”.
If you grab right below the glans you can damage nerves.

If you have skin pull it bacl before do your stretch.

Yes, it is. I do this everytime after pump.

Taking the opportunity of this thread, I also have a newbie question:

When jelqing, is it relevant if your fingers are fully wrapping your dick?
I mean, does it make a difference if your index and thumb are touching or not?

I am trying to determine if I will end up having less results if that is the case.

Tks
