I have not read anything pertaining to left and right tugback with LOT. The theory deals solely with how your dick reacts to stretching up and down. At an 8, the theory states you should do more stretching out and up. JAI stretches, helicoptor shakes, internal stretches and A-stretches are some exercises many of us use. You can check out videos and directions for these under the "Guides" tab at the top. Most importantly, it sounds like you are a newbie. Make sure you use a LOW erection (pretty flacid) when stretching. Also, don't expect to gain 2 inches overnight. Set your goals in small steps (i.e. by September you want to add .25"). My numbers definitely don't indicate overnight success. BUT, when you look at the numbers, you can see PE WITH PATIENCE works. Good luck!
