Statistical obsession

Just wanted to know if any one else kept track of their exercises like I do. I maintain a spreadsheet that tracks by day how much weight I have used and how many minutes (in total) I was hanging that day. Then I accumulate the totals by month, and can look back over history to see if there is any pattern or trend I can see of what works and what doesn’t. Keeping track of pound-minutes seems to make more sense than tracking time alone or weight alone. As I have increased my tolerance for weight, the monthly totals have increased.

The reason for the post today is that my logbook total for 2003 passed 150,000 pound-minutes. Think about it. That is the same total work as if I had hung a 75 ton weight from my penis for one minute! Of course the gradual approach I actually used has the benefit of leaving my penis attached to my body <g>.

Well, are you keeping us in suspense? With that many hours and dedication,what have you gained? I wish I could stick to logging for longer than 2 days,congratulations on being on top of things.

I keep an Excel log also but not as in depth as you Goodness81.

It tracks all girth and length progress, different volume calculations, along with when I started using different devices, supplements, breakthroughs, unforeseen lig pops and so on.

The two things I don’t keep track of is PE routines and time involved.

That would entail too much data entry at this moment.

Not much inspiration to give right now. I started PE 2 1/2 years ago with jelquing and stretching and got great gains very quickly — went from 5.5 NBPEL to 8.1 BPEL in the first year. Then I hit the dreaded plateau — 6 months with no measureable gains. At the beginning of this year I started hanging because I wasn’t getting anywhere just jelquing. And since I am in this for the long run, I don’t measure more often than every 3 months (November 1 is my next measurement date) Previous measurements this year haven’t shown much length gain (0.1 inch or so) but my base girth has gotten much larger (over 6.0 now).

Since I believe in slow steady progress, even 1/4 inch per year would put me at 9 inches before 2007.
