Gained in length from stretching and deconditioning

[rustyg]

I tried taking a decon (2 months off of Penis Enlargement) and coming back with regular stretching about 3 months ago. I saw no length gains in a months time. My routine consisted of 5 minutes of stretching (mostly newbie stuff) 3x per week, definitely a less is more approach to stretching. Stretching intensely during this time, getting lots of lig pops. Again, no gains.

I stopped again, took a decon for about 6 weeks, and then stretched again. This time I was stretching between 6-12 minutes per day, usually broken into twice daily sessions. In two weeks I saw 1/4" gain in length, in all measurements (flaccid, stretched flaccid non pressed and pressed, erect pressed and non pressed).

So what's the difference here? Why gains the second time around? I have several theories: I increased the duration of exercise, as well as the frequency, but I never actually stretched at all out strength like I did the first time around. I never actually was shooting for lig pops this time, but rather stretching at just that point before a lig pop happened. Call me crazy, but I think something may happen when the ligs pop that hinders gains. I think the ligs get tight much quicker and resist being lax, which is what we are trying to do in stretching. Anyways, I repeated this over, and over, and over... and two weeks later I gained 1/4". I kept on stretching for another two weeks, but the ligs just felt different. The stretches seemed less effective. If anything was gained the past two weeks it was 1/16" tops.

So in my experience, deconditioning works for ligament stretching. Manual Penis Enlargement'ers can use this knowledge - you don't need [words=http://www.phallosan.com/shop/catalog/default.php?z=eNortjIxtVKyL0pNszWxMFcrSSxKTy2JL0hMT7U1UisoykyxtbBQSy4tLsnPjS8uKcrMS7dVsgZcMMpbEbo%2C]ADS[/words] to see results from having a deconditioning break. Inadvertantly, all the length gains I have had (3/4" now in total length) have been after a long break from Penis Enlargement. But within a month returning, the gains would stop.

This puts me up to over 7.5 non pressed erect length now (from 6.75), and I'm shooting for 8.5 just so when I'm not 100% all the time I am still over 8" non pressed in most positions (standing, laying, etc).

And just to emphasize how effective breaks can be for stretching, IMO, I have always had trouble gaining length and found girth gains much easier. But be persistent, break when necessary, and believe it, it'll happen.

This is good research. I have gained girth easier than length as well. This is gold for all those who don't do hanging. Thanks.

Nice. Must feel pretty good to be closing in on your goals.

Very nice.

I had been tossing around the idea of stretching for 2 weeks, jelqing for 2, etc. and seeing how that went. I don't have any logical reason for that, just conjecture.

Sure thing man! Just tryin to give back to a community that has given so much..

It is nice Spinner. I finally know what must be done to gain length, now time will be my only obstacle. In theory, if I can manage a 1/4" in length every 2.5 months, we're looking at one full inch gained in 10 months. I can wait that...

I've had that idea as well. I don't think girth workouts respond the same though. For me if my girth gains stalled, all I needed was either more time or more intensity with my sessions and I'd start gaining. Length was never this way.

verry interesting indeed!!

thanks for sharing this info!

Hmmm...I'm not sure that I agree that lig pops hinder gains. The popping is just O2 being forced across the membrane of the ligaments. It's really nothing to worry about. Finger popping, ankle pops, knees that pop, it's all fairly normal and it's not detrimental to growth. I will say that deconditioning for long periods of time does lead to fairly rapid growth at the restart. I've gained .25" in EL since my deconditioning break. I'm spending a bit of time on girth before taking another deconditioning break for 2-3 months. I'm working to solidify a uniform 5.5" EG at the moment and will probably work this for at least 2 weeks and then I'm off for 2-3 months. I've found that taking this break and getting as far away from Penis Enlargement as possible provides great motivation at the outset of the restart. This next time I'm going to really work the intensity fairly early instead of spending 2 weeks with basics. I think a few days of basic stretching is enough and then I should move up to more intense work that hopefully will prove more productive.

Maybe have your girth routine going all the time and rotate length in there as you think works for you?

I might try it...

...after my newbie gains fade away, that is.
