Growth Mindset

Sunday 4/5/20:
I Woke up before the family and did a proper routine today.

Bundled stretch 5 min
3x60s beginner stretch in all directions
I will try to heal wrapped up all day and get a set of cranks and BTC stretches in every hour or so.

I used toilet paper for my grips today during stretching because baby powder is sometimes hard to get cleaned up quickly if the wife wakes up. The TP worked well as a grip and I got some good work done with it.

I haven't measured in a while but I can tell that I am growing based off where my stretches are getting to relative to my hips and other landmarks. Longer shaft makes it much easier to stretch with sufficient force. I think I may be on the verge of some fast gains. I'm excited to see what kind of progress I've made when I measure on May 12.

4/6/20:
I was not feeling motivated to PE today but I ended up getting a lot of work done.

Morning:
Bundled stretch 5 min
BTC 3x45s
Downward angles 3x45s
Wrapped and healed all morning

Notes: experimented with latex gloves for stretching grips today and they were really nice. Definitely worth trying. I'm getting a lot of stretch marks from all this work and I'm looking for ways to mitigate this. I've been using hydrocortisone after every training session and today started using vitamin E oil. Hopefully these will help limit the damage. I think I'm gonna avoid the bundled double tunica stretches for a while. I was analyzing why I was getting so much loose skin/stretch marks and realized that this stretch (which Is definitely highly profitable for tunica stretching) was giving me most of my skin stretching.

Afternoon:
Bundled stretch 5 min
Edging/Light JELQ for 15 min
Clamp 5 min
SSJ 5 min
Clamp 5 min
SSJ 5 min
Edging/JELQ 5 min

I had good expansion from the girth work and healed up with a shoelace for 90 minutes.

For not wanting to get work done today you got a lot of work done today LOL I love to see my brothers push through discouragement or lazy attitudes!
 
4/7/2:

I got in 3 15-20 minute short girth sessions. Just mixed things up and did a bunch of dry JELQ, SSJ, horse squeezes and clamp sets.
PEnis is finally conditioned to handle girth sessions more frequently. This bodes well for the future.

I’m so happy you were able to train. Take it slow and steady as you progress to be extra safe. Mixing up those exercises when doing girth work makes things a lot more fun when you do get better expansion.
 
4/8 and 4/9:
Rest days. I was feeling really fatigued and knew I needed a good rest period. Just did a few sets of bundled stretches and some erect stretching both days.

4/10:
I read through the 5 phase system on the MOS site you posted in my thread @DLD. I was intrigued by it because it's mainly a manual routine with no equipment needed until deep into the phases. I had been thinking for a few weeks about where I should go after I max out on the newbie routine but I think this gave me a good plan.

@DLD do you still advocate the 5 phase system? Seems like a good program for manual only PEers; especially if you incorporate the healing principles of SRT. I have been PEing for 2 months now and my plan so far is to start merging the newbie routine into phase 2 of the system. I added in some DLD A-Stretch Blasters into my routine today after reading about them in Phase 2.

Morning Stretch Routine:
Warm up 5 min
Bundled stretch 5 min
BTC all angles 3x30s
Downward stretch all angles 3x30s
Rotary Cranks down 3x25
Straight out to the Left and Right (no stretches straight out)3x30s
Rotary cranks straight out 3x25
Stretch Up/Left and Up/Right 3x30s
Rotary cranks up 3x25

DLD A-Stretch Blasters 25 reps

My pre routine BPFSL was 18.9cm after the newbie stretches my BPFSL was 19.5cm. After doing the set of 25 blasters i was shocked to see my BPFSL easily past 20cm (first time I've seen that number)

The blasters are a powerful stretch and good PC muscle strength routine. I think I might have had a ligament "pop" during the blasters. It didn't hurt and my penis felt more free after. Today was a good session. I think the smart rest break I took set me up for success today.

The five phase system has really been replaced by two routines that encompass everything the five phases encompassed plus so much more. Men usually start with the newbie routine and from there they go into the SRT routine. Between these two routines you’re getting much more than you would ever get out of the five phases.
 
I injured myself during my girth routine last Friday. I woke up the next morning and had a very obvious thrombosis situation going on. I read up on the thrombosis healing thread and took the ibuprofen, cycled heat and cold, and used some vitamin E oil. One thing I did that really helped the healing process and I didn't see in the thread was that I wrapped up with an ace bandage to give a slight compression. This really helped take the swelling down.

I took the last week off for the most part. Just doing small workouts to see how the healing process was going. One week later and I'm back to 100%. Thrombosis wasn't nearly as scary as I thought it was.

Damn which part of the routine you think caused injury?
Click to expand...
Clamping for 5 minutes followed immediately by SSJs and other high intensity girth stuff(2 sets of this). I just did too much too soon. I won't be making that mistake again. It was a good learning experience. I will ease back into girth and probably eliminate clamping altogether or do only 1 or 2 minute sets.

I’m so glad you were healed and I’m very pleased that you found the therapy for this. Are usually have to tell people where to find it. I’m very happy that you’re back to work, this time don’t over train and pay very close attention to what’s going on.
