Brawn Johnson's Routine and Progress
- Thread starter Brawn Johnson
- Start date
Congratulations on a journey that continues to get better and better. You are a true inspiration and so many are looking toward you for help and understanding. That’s the beauty of a solid progress thread your history helps so many in the future.
As a general rule, if something's working it's best not to tinker with it unless you have a good reason to think you'll improve things. "If it ain't broke..."
Having said that, I'm making a decision to roll the dice here. The routine I've been using has been getting me results, but 1) they're too slow for my taste, and 2) the sessions are taking up too much time. I want to see if I can get faster results with less time spent each day! I've spoken with Big Al about it, and based on our discussion I'll be starting a new routine today that breaks the workout up into smaller chunks placed throughout the day.
NEW ROUTINE:
Each day = 4 sessions spread throughout the day: 8:30am, 11:30am, 3pm, and 8pm
Day A = length
Day B = girth
5 days on 2 days off
Day A 1 session =
warmup (5min hair dryer + penile slapping exercise)
20 slow cranks
Day B 1 session =
warmup (5min hair dryer + penile slapping exercise)
20 squeezes
On the last session of each day, I also do towel raise kegels to train EQ.
Each day, I'll add 1 rep of each exercise, each session.
Breaking it up throughout the day actually presents its own challenges, since I don't have all day privacy, but I'll give this a shot. If it's working out schedule-wise then I'll try it for a month and see what I get. Then I'll try out what I'm REALLY itching for, and add the ADS Silistretcher at all waking hours and see how THAT goes.
Alternatively, if the broken up sessions don't end up being practical either, I'll go back to my old routine and try adding the ADS component to see if I can at least speed up the results I'm getting.
Stay tuned!

Looks like a decent plan.. Please keep us posted.
Very cool idea and something I was going to post about today in a similar way. I have been studying days off and rest periods and I’m starting to find a pattern with certain men that gain better with either less work or work broken up into different places throughout the day. I always called the stealth training but I think it’s important to bring to light in actual routines that use this methodology and explain it in a way that people will understand.
We'll see how it works out for me! It does seem like different people have been successful with different approaches, certain methods working better for some than for others, and it would be great if we could determine which sort of person is best served by what... perhaps there are some indicators we could discover besides just trial and error, with periodic measurements as your guide.

Great minds think alike, Brawnster.
I was thinking the exact same thing...If there are any physical markers that can indicate what would work for an individual and removing the guesswork from the equation.
It is a large project to take on but I feel it is necessary. Collecting data and showing how rest and healing is vital to a faster growing cycles. There has been polls but that does not give the big picture. I think my findings will allow men more rest while still making gains. SRT does address healing but resting times were never looked at until I started watching these trends of men gaining with less time or rest. Putting more time into passive healing, as outlined in SRT. Awesome topic, so glad to be involved.
Measurements on March 10, 2019
These measurements taken after a couple days not wearing the wrap.
Flaccid Girth: 4 5/8"
BPFL: 4 15/16"
BPSFL: 7 6/8"
Erect Girth: 5 3/8"
BPEL: 7 3/8"
Measurements on April 7, 2019, after the first month of my new routine. I wasn't as consistent as I should have been, here and there we have days where I only did 2 or 3 of my 4 daily sessions. Splitting into smaller sessions throughout the day has its own challenges, especially when it comes to privacy. (At some point, people come home.
) Also, the temptation to fap after each session must be overcome. Try doing THAT and see what your EQ is like by the fourth session. LOL Finally, since I post to MoS during my sessions, these little mini-sessions have made that a tick less convenient. The sessions themselves are shorter, and also the pressure to get these little interruptions to my day over with has increased in direct proportion to their number. 
Sorry I've been scarce!
I've also noticed some new PI's, lots of tiny red spots along the shaft on girth days that go away by the following day. Frequent little 'twinges' of pain in the shaft and ligs. Nothing serious or disruptive, but I guess I'll interpret this stuff in light of the numbers!*
These measures taken after a couple days NOT wearing my wrap. This may affect flaccid measures. I also noticed that if I press the ruler right above the shaft, it actually pulls the shaft back a bit because it pulls on the skin. By giving just the smallest gap between shaft and ruler, I actually get slightly longer measures even though the shaft is coming in at an angle. I wasn't aware of that before and I'll have to go back and review the old measurement pictures to see what my habits have been. (+10 to precision!)
Flaccid Girth: 4 5/8"
BPFL: 5 1/8"
BPSFL: 7 13/16"
Erect Girth: 5 3/8"
BPEL: 7 3/8"
You can see these measurements in the context of my entire history here!
*EDIT: My progress stalled in the last month I was training the new mini-session routine. I find this inconclusive, since multiple factors changed (new PIs, new routine), but I didn't lose progress, which I'm under the impression that I should expect if negative PIs are showing. So there's that.

Thanks, Haursen! Yes, that's precisely what I'm talking about.
Thanks, DLD! Growth stalled since my last measurement, but now I know. I'll probably take a little reset-break and then go back to my original routine that got me where I am now. Once I confirm that I'm back on track with that, I'll test out the silistretcher to see if I can speed things up with passive stretching outside my workouts.
Rest up, DLD!
Passive stretching is such an important component to SRT. So I’m happy you going to start using your SiliStretcher to accomplish this. I think you and I think every other person here for the great love, prayers and well wishes, I truly appreciate it. It’s so nice to know that when things are bad you guys are here for me.

Hokay, so that 'little break' turned into two weeks after I had to take my computer in for repairs and fell off the horse... and I measured again on Saturday and I'm actually down a bit...
BACK AT IT as of today, back with the routine that was getting me steady results before. I'll go a month of that and take measurements to confirm I'm gaining again. If so, I'll throw in the silistretcher for some passive gains outside of my sessions and see if I can speed things up that way.
Good session today, feels good to be back.

And a solid week down! Back in the swing of things, looking forward to measuring again after 3 more weeks.
HA! Haursen, you have quickly established yourself as gif king around here.
Alright, gentlemen: UPDATE! I'm feeling bigger, and we'll see if that's all perception or not when I measure in about a week and a half.
I'll share my thoughts on 'one large session' vs 'several mini-sessions':
-Although I actually lost gains during this experiment, I can't conclude that mini-sessions are necessarily less effective even for me at my stage of development, let alone for everyone generally. There are two reasons, one of which is an observation of how effective they are for me individually.
-First, I changed more than one variable. I switched the nature of the routine from one large session to multiple mini-sessions, but I also changed the specific exercises I was performing. Further, I stopped using the Lengthmaster (because I found it awkward for slow cranks) which meant less AND probably less consistent intensity. (No lengthmaster = no measuring force).
-Second, and more to do with mini-sessions per se in my case, my consistency dropped. I found that, although I didn't have to sit through the hour+ sessions I was performing before, the cost of multiple interruptions even if each interruption is smaller, was much greater than the cost of one big interruption. It made me less productive in other areas, and my PE was less effective because I wasn't as consistent. Once I get started, I'll finish a session. So even if I'm squirming and impatient by the end of a big PE session it will be done consistently every day. On the intermittent training schedule I found myself skipping the last workout of the day once or twice per week. Now that I'm back to the one session schedule, consistency is back to up 100%!
If anyone is considering the mini-sessions, consider that issue I had and ask yourself if you think you'll run into the same problem. That won't be an issue for everyone, but it was for me.
