I notice that after the stretching part of my routine, my penis looks considerably thinner and a bit shorter.

Is this normal? Ive been seeing this happen for 7 months. Do any of you guys experience this too?

It is for this turtling reason that i dont really like doing stretches.

Turtling happens as soon as your penis is developed in the womb. It isn't something that is a side effect of PE or exercises. When you are cold, your penis turtles. When not in use for long periods of time, your penis turtles. Even when there is trauma to any part of the body which causes pain, your penis turtles. You could spend all of your life without sex or masturbation and certainly without penis exercises and your penis would turtle , and most likely turtle constantly. Did you forget what your penis was like before doing exercises? Also if you really don't like doing an exercise, its probably best not to do the exercise.

Take a look at the intense stretching thread it may help. The basic of it is not to rip your stretches on too quick.

I know that turtling is a natural penis action, but i mean it seems as if stretching itself causes turtling for me.

Other exercises such as jelqing and light squeezing dont turtle my penis, but stretching always seems to do it.

Also if you really don't like doing an exercise, its probably best not to do the exercise
I really never liked it but im continuing to do it because alot of people say that stretchign is good for length. Although myself i have never experienced any gains due to stretching, i always have that glimmer of hope and continue to try.

Do you guys think i should still stretch? Increase intensity?

What I mean is if you don't like doing it, and have no faith in it why waste your time? Also if you feel that way, you'll certainly see all the negatives but ignore the positives if any. As soon as I decide I don;t like something that's it, done with it. (like pumping for instance)

trex, you're going to either have to convince yourself to be positive about stretching or you're going to have to drop it all together. Do you enjoy jelqing? If so, just learn to jelq at very low erection levels. Low erection jelqing is virtually a stretching motion. You could also try stretching very lightly and see if that reverses your P.I.s.

Heh, im kind of in a delimma. I always feel that if i dont stretch im missing out on a great exercise that EVERYONE else praises. On the other hand, i havent seen much positive effects from stretching.

Do you enjoy jelqing?
Oh, YEAH!! Soooo much fun.

Ive done low erection jelqs before but they feel kinda less effective when compared to higher erection jelqs. Yesterday i did 400, 90-100% erection jelq strokes with watching porn. THAT was an intense workout. I loved it.

But right now im not sure which will give me better results. I think i mightve hit a plateau with the low erect jelqs though.

I wasnt masturbating.

Its the only way i can get a 100% erection going on.

I did 400 strokes ya but they were slow strokes. I got a good blood bulge going and got good expansion.

I really think i did good PE

So how much of a gain have you shown for that 90-100% jelqing? The reason I ask is that jelqing at those levels of erection is practically useless in my oppinion.
When your penis is full of blood (90-100%) erect, there is no room to move any more blood and if you can't move the blood you can't get stretch and expansion without squeezing hard. Sure, you can move the skin on the shaft a bit and slide your hand up but that's about it. That's why some would say its just masturbation. If you have to squeeze hard to have expansion you can't possibly do that many jelqs without killing your unit.

Understand many will say different, that's why I clarified my reasoning.
I think your jelqing routine is more of just edging or ballooning with no jelqing benefits.

PH, once again you hit the nail on head. This is something I could never understand about jelqing and stretching at a high erection level. All I ever do is either squish my dick to try and move blood around or just stretch the skin.

Well on friday, that was my first day of erect jelqing. To me it seemed much more intense than regular semi erection or low erect jelqing because my glans expanded MUCH more. The blood bulge was also huge in comparison to the other forms of jelqing.

Contrary to what you said, i DID get a good expansion and ample room to push blood all over the place. To be honest i really thought that i wouldnt get any expansion at all (what you said). But i proved myself wrong.

As for gains attributed to erect jelqing, im not too sure yet, like i said it was my first time. I plan on doing it every friday to finish off my 5 on 2 off routine, so later in life ill tell you about my progress. Lol.

At the same time, i dont feel like its masturbating because when i stroke slowly like that, i dont feel that "i wanna cum feeling". If you know what i mean.

If its full of blood , you can't move it around much at all without something giving. The only way you can sequence expansion/recovery is if there is room to let it happen. There is enough room for a squeeze or uli but that's it, no way to take blood from the base to the glans as the shaft is full already. With the force it would take to actually jelq a rock hard penis, it would be disasterous.

I would avoid fully erect jelqing at all costs. Too risky. There are much better ways to achieve the desired results.

Yea, that was my line of thinking before i actually did the erect jelqing. To my surprise, my penis did something wierd. The girth expanded a little to allow for my grip. Its expansion made my penis a little softer than normal but still 100% erect. Its hard to explain but the process worked for me. It didnt feel uncomfortable ever.

Well kingpole advocates the exercise. But im open to any ideas. What thoughts do you have? Ive hit a plateau and cant get any more length in.

It's when your flaccid penis shrinks and the tissues firm up. When it's really cold outside and your penis shrinks, it's turltling.
