6/4/20:
The wife had to stay home from work again so today I've just been sneaking stuff in here and there during bathroom breaks. My suspensory ligs are sore from all the BTC stretching I've been doing. I'll try to get testicle health massage and stretch and some other stuff after bedtime.

-Bundled Stretch ~6sets total
-Total Package Stretch and Crank 5min 50 cranks
-Low Shaft Grip Expressive Stretches 6min total
-BTC Stretches 3x1min
-Side Stretches 4sets

Notes: I've been really enjoying the expressive stretches. It feels good to do them and it's exciting to see how much extra length there is to be had. I've been experimenting with pulling in different angles and planes with them and noting the sensations you get with different angles. Today I started using a sort of Mandingo style grip with the low shaft stretch and was getting very good stretches; Including what seemed like a direct stretch of the suspensatory ligs in one straight out angle

@DLD how much expressive stretching is too much? I like the idea of focusing some days(weeks?) heavily on expressive stretching And occasionally making it the main emphasis of the program. It seems like a way you can keep training while letting the tunica or ligs decondition/recover. It also seems like a good spot to grab quick gains. What are your thoughts on higher volume expressive stretching?

With stretching there is no limit. You can stretch 24 hours a day seven days a week if you can stay awake that long. There is limitations in gurth you need decent EQ to make things happen. But with length you can take it to the next level and not worry.
 
Stealth PE Progress:
Unfortunately the worst possible PE scenario has befallen me; my wife has been stuck working at home waiting for a Covid test to come back from the lab so she can return to work. Nonetheless, I've been sneaking in a ton of quick 10 second stretches throughout the day and have actually been able to wake up early and get some longer workouts in. The wife just ran to the grocery store so I was able to measure and see where I'm at after this change of routine. I can't recall the exact routines I've done the past few days but I've been evenly splitting time between:

-Bundled Stretch
-Low Shaft Expressive Stretch
-Total Package Stretch and Crank
-BTC Stretch
-Erect Stretch
-Size Blaster
-SSJ

I've just been doing 10 minutes running time of each one and not caring about specific timed stretches but rather the quality of the stretch. Trying to get as much quality work in as possible during the 10 minutes, then switching(for shorter workouts I'll do 5 minutes of each). It seems to be working well and I'm not overtraining

Today, I started measuring standing up (as opposed to seated)again. I feel like it's more consistent with placement of the the ruler and thus more repeatable.

BPFSL: 7-7/8"
BPEL: 7-1/8"

My Flacid hang seems to be longer and heavier, I started noticing it a few days ago after I started doing more expressive stretching.

6/7/20 Morning Routine:
  1. Bundled Stretch 10min
  2. Expressive Stretch 10min
    1. Low Shaft Grip Stretch
    2. Total Package Stretch and Crank
  3. Erect Stretches/Girth 10min
    1. Erect Stretch
    2. Size Blaster
    3. SSJ
  4. BTC Stretches 10min

Notes: Post Erect Stretch BPEL 7-1/4". This afternoon I also did a 5 min version of the same routine while the wife got groceries. I feel much more relaxed about this whole process now that I'm past the anxiety filled beginner stage when you aren't sure if this is going to work and if you are hurting yourself.

6/7/20 Late Night Erect/Girth Session:
-Bundled Stretch 5min
-Erect/Girth Set 50 min (Erect Stretch/Size Blaster/SSJ)
-BTC 5min
 
6/8/20 Morning Length Routine:
-Bundled Stretch 10min downward directions
-Expressive Stretches 10min (2/3 Lo-Shaft, 1/3 Whole Package)
-BTC Stretches 10min
-Bundled BTC 5min

Notes: Short, efficient routine. I will try to sneak in another workout or 2 later in the day
 
6/8/20: First HANGING session:
I didn't wake up today with the intention of trying hanging. I was looking through my workout equipment odds and ends and found a small strap that randomly made me think of hanging. Then I thought, I wonder if I could make this work. So I went for it and did a few sets of hanging.
-Hang 5lbs 5min
-Hang 5lbs 5min (experimented with rotating it and doing bundled hanging)
-Hang 10lbs 5min
-Hang 10lbs 5min

Notes: Wow this was way more intense than I thought it would be. I checked my post BPFSL after and was 8"(+.25")exactly. Interestingly, I sat down and measured it and it was 8-1/2", a new PR from that position of measurement. Hanging is powerful.
 
6/9/20 Morning Session:
-Erect Stretch/SIze Blaster 10min
-Bundled Stretch 5min
-Low Shaft Expressive Stretch 5min
-Straight Out Newbie Stretch 5min
-Wrap Up

Notes: woke up with strong morning erection so started with some erect work. Once that went away I just did a quick SRT routine that took 15 minutes total. Everything seems to be progressing nicely. Looking long.
 
6/9/20 Afternoon Testicle Massage and Stretch:
I decided after the mornings work that I needed to have the rest of the day for recovery and maybe more. I think the hanging was quite intense yesterday. Got the testicle routine in and I will reevaluate in the morning, might take a day or 2 mostly off.

@DLD I was thinking about the testicle massage minimalist program we were discussing the other day. I was thinking that erect stretch/size blasters might be a good maintenance exercise. Seems like maximum bang for your buck in terms of what it's hitting. Have you thought more at all about that routine? Also, I'm starting to wonder if I should take a decon break. My BPFSL has gone up almost 2" in the past 4 months of pretty intense training. It seems like the law of diminishing returns is bound to kick in any second. What's your take on the idea of Decon breaks?
 
What an excellent few days you have gotten in! Very impressive even during the times you could only get a session in here and there. As far as a deconditioning it does it work rather well for people to come to a plateau. Taking off 5 to 7 days to just reset settings and come at them from a different trajectory makes a big difference!
 
6/11/20: Morning Length Routine:
-Bundled Stretch 10min straight out and to the sides
-Low Shaft Expressive Stretch 10min
-Hanging 5lb 1x20min standing up
-Wrap

Notes: I need to get a heating pad. I've been doing my routines in my bedroom in the morning and it's really cold in here. It's definitely slowing my progress.

I just found this one on Amazon for $35 that I will probably order when I have to go back to the office so I can get a stretch in mid day in my car. Seems like the best one because it's more for wrapping around areas instead of a massive square pad. Hope this helps.

Thanks for this idea. That thing looks really cool???
 
Using a heating pad was one of the best tricks I had on healing! It’s not only heals but it’s one heck of a good warm-up. I used it at all times that I was not doing PE. It would keep me in a stretchable state at all times. I think this did have a lot to do with my growth and how fast I grew.
 
6/15/20 Light Intensity/Decon Routines:
I had a busy weekend and didn't have time to get on here. I hope everyone is doing well.

Since I last posted and considered DLDs advice regarding a Decon break I have been doing a light routine consisting of ~5 min bundled stretches, a few minutes expressive stretches, stretches here and there throughout the day, a few minutes of erect stretches and the testicle massage and stretch.

When I have time I've been getting in my usual medium intensity girth routine of erect stretches, size blasters, and lots of SSJs. I checked my NBPEL today(first time in a long time) and it was 7" measured standing up. I don't have much of a fat pad. Girth also seems to be growing (slowly). Just gonna keep taking it easy till my penis tells me it's ready for the push to 8".

Thank you for taking my advice and I know this is going to greatly help you. I like that you’re doing things to keep your mind in the game while you’re taking a break. When you come back full force we should expect a jumpstart in gaining.
 
6/16/20: Morning Maintenance Session:
-Bundled Stretch 5min (straight out)
-Low Shaft Expressive Stretch 5min
-Erect Strectn/Size Blaster 15min

Midday Routine:
-Bundled Stretch 5min (straight up to the sides)
-Erect Stretch/ Size Blaster/SSJ 15min

Afternoon Routine:
-Bundled Stretch 5min
-Erect Stretch 10min
-Testicle Health Massage and Stretch

Notes: BPEL was 7-1/4" at the end of the day, measured standing straight up. Girth is coming along as well. I'm wondering if I can continue to gain in EL while deconditioning other stuff. My BPEL is almost 1" off from my BPFSL so I suppose it's possible? I guess we will find out

The difference is dealt with by doing erect stretches. I suggest that you do them three times a week for about 10 minutes. This will close that gap and cement the new size.
