Hey so I started on the hydro extreme 7, 2 weeks In now doing the 5 x 5 x 3.

In my first week I measured 5 inch on 3rd rep.
In my second week I measured 5.5 inch on my 3rd rep and now 2 days into my 3rd week I'm measuring 5.75 inch on my 3rd rep. I can feel an amazing tug at my base near my gooch and the feeling is blissful. I do 4 sets actually on the pump and 4 sets ssj, I take 1 day off per week. Are these results normal? I used to measure 6.5 inch but lost 1.5 inch in 4 years due to stress think I might be getting it back!
Thanks for all the great advice on this forum!

It's hard to say if this is normal. Are you referring to the ruler on the Bathmate pump, or outside of the pump?
 
The gauge-sticker on the BM cylinder is not an accurate way to measure (the compressing of the gaitor is too great of a variable)...I did a test on my kitchen counter and compressed the gaitor as far as it would go and then took a ruler to compare w/the sticker...the BM was showing 3/8" (.375) or about one CM longer. Just keep that in mind. As an aside, the sticker on the MityVac is very accurate (albeit delicate) I had to cut it off at the 6" and below mark due to it peeling.

Good to know cheers
