This will be my progress log thread: "Argyle's Awesome Additions AKA (A^3)".
This routine and my gains are thanks to @huge-girth, my PE coach, @oldandlively, and Squirt Inducer Man (who I abbreviate as SIM throughout this thread). Thanks a lot for the guidance and answers to my (very) frequent questions!
Jan. 9, 2024: Day Zero
BPEL: 5.31 in
BPSFL: 5.44 in
BG: 4.25 in
EG/MSEG: 4 in
Began my "warm-up" phase:
Used LengthMaster to do half-bundle stretches in every direction for 1 minute; 22 minutes total.
Started doing kegels; began w/ 60 per day.
Feb. 13, 2024:
BPSFL: 5.63 --> 0.19 inch increase
Feb. 14, 2024:
Began a new PE routine:
Seated Downward Half-Bundle Stretches w/ LengthMaster for 1 minute:
20 minute sessions, 2x/day.
I could only do half-bundles at this time; a full bundle was not feasible yet.
Began a new kegel routine:
Increased from 60 kegels/day by 10 reps every week until I got to 200 reps/day.
May 14, 2024:
BPEL: 5.69 --> 0.38 inch increase
Began a new PE routine:
DLD Full Bundle Blasters w/ LengthMaster. 24-minute sessions, 2x per day. Stretch for 2 minutes in each direction, 3 times.
I could now do full bundles.
New kegel progression:
5-sec holds for 25 reps, 2x/day; 50/day.
Aug. 16, 2024:
BPEL: 5.94 --> .25 inch increase
Continue w/ PE routine:
DLD Full Bundle Blasters w/ LengthMaster; same as the previous 3 months:
24-minute sessions, 2x per day. Stretch for 2 minutes in each direction, 3 times.
Begin new kegel progression:
5-sec hold for 25 reps, 4x/day; 100 kegels/day for 30 days
5- sec hold for 25 reps, 6x/day; 150 kegels/day for 30 days
5-sec hold for 25 reps, 8x/day; 200 kegels/day for 30 days
Nov. 16, 2024:
BPEL: 6.00 --> .06 inch increase
PE Routine:
Although I've finally reached my 6-inch mark (sweet!), I need to make a change. Although I was similarly consistent as the previous three months (missed sessions here and there in every three-month block because life gets in the way), I only saw a 0.06-inch increase in three months doing the DLD Full Bundle Blasters w/ LengthMaster 2x/day, 24-minute sessions each, 2 minutes in each direction, 3 times. This is a considerable drop-off in gains compared to my previous blocks.
Kegels:
I did not do the new kegel routine I listed in August. Instead, I kept doing the kegel routine I followed in May (see above). This was partially laziness and partially forgetting to do the new routine.
I talked with my coach @huge-girth. He said it's time to start BTC stretches, so I'm off to research those. I also need to start progressing with my kegels. I'll post more here one I figure out my new BTC and kegel routines.
Nov. 28, 2024:
First BTC bundle stretch session with LM3.
I will make a progress update on or shortly after Feb. 28, 2025.
