Hello again. First I'd like to summarize my PE experience so far:
Before PE, after Puberty:
- 5.5" x 4.5" Erect Length x Erect Girth (EL taken standing, bone-pressed and dorsal side)
After 1st phase PE, over the course of 6 months sometime after 2010:
- Basic stretches and Jelqing
- 6.5" x 5.0" (+1.0" x +0.5")
After 2nd phase PE, February-May 2012 (approximately 3 months):
- DLD's newbie routine, but skipped girth work in my second month
- 7.0" x 5.0" (+0.5" x +0.0")
After 3rd phase PE, January-April 2013:
- DLD's newbie routine, 5x5x3 routine with Penomet water pump
- 7.5" x 5.2" (+0.5" x +0.2")
After 4th phase PE, February-May 2017:
- Basic stretches and Jelqing, 5x5x3 routine through May
- 7.5" x 5.5" (+0.0" x +0.3")
- This phase continued without permanent gains from June 2017 - July 2018 (an entire year)
After 5th phase PE, October- December 2020:
In summary, half of my gains were before I joined MOS through very unskilled yet consistent application of the basics. The latter half of my gains to this day were from DLD's newbie routine followed by the
5x5x3 routine, with total gains of
+2.0" EL x +1.0" EG. The volume difference between my initial size and present size is literally
over double the volume, from about 4.4 fl oz to 9.0 fl oz. These efforts took a combined total of approximately 15 months. When you think about it, that's not that much work for such a payoff.
If you were to tell me when I was teenager I would have been this big one day, I would not have believed it at all. I ran these stats through a chart, and found that my starting size was quite average if not slightly below, almost at the top of the bell curve. Today, that chart categorizes me as "abnormally large" and places me in the top 1%. I still don't know if I believe that statistic, but I definitely feel accomplished.
While I have found success through PE, you can see that it has its challenges. Half of my time spent doing PE gave me no results at all. I simplified all these experiences for clarity. I think a major take away is that facing a plateau is brutal for motivation. The girth routine in my fourth phase could not afford any permanent gains, but I made some great temporary gains in girth up to 5.7" (even when edema subsided) and over 8" EL (which went down to 7.5" after an hour or so). Due to on and off challenges with wrapping in my fifth phase, I could not get the
Length master to work for me despite the amazing stretches that I got from it. I have always struggled when it came to devices like extenders or the
LM, and eventually I gave up because I could not find a solution in the forums, and my efforts turned me up with nothing.
After some recently reflection, I realized how many other things in life I've accomplished. That's why I want to do PE again.
This time I believe that I can reach
8.0" x 6.0". I think this is a reasonable goal to set my sights on. I cemented my past gains, so
I have to gain 0.5" x 0.5" to achieve this goal. Yesterday I began the newbie routine again because I at least wanted to do something. But I am not sure what will break through my plateau, because likely my tunica or possibly my mental state had been fighting back. So I welcome any advice the forum has to get me started on the right foot because I am a very much out of practice. And it's great to be back.
