Greetings All,
I noticed since so many are maintaining progress logs in the forum, thought I would join in. Figured it would give me that little extra motivation. Also, felt this would be a great place to comment on how this journey is affecting the rest of my life. I plan on adding an enter at least once a month, hopefully a few more. For anyone that can relate t my experience, I gladly welcome a message from you.
i'd like to apoligize up front (no pun) ... this first post will be long. The reason is I have used Penis Enlargement exercises before. it was 5 years ago. I learned a valuable lesson this past 5 years. At least for me, the gains that I achieved were lost because I discontinued the exercises without some type of maintenance routine. I have my reasons and excuses, but in the end, basically I am starting over.
I've looked back at some old data on my computer and combined with other memories and estimations, I believe I can map the journey to where I am today.
Growing up in the 70's - As a teenage, I was always a big kid. In high school my weight ranged from 175 to 205 and with my build, I carry all that extra weight in the torso. From being in gym class, I knew I was smaller than most. The best guess I would have is I was 1.5" flaccid and 3" erect. I found out later in life that I have a screwed up pituitary gland resulting in hypogonadism. For me, this lead to a slow and gradual puberty. By the late 70's (age 22) I was up to 4.5" erect. With weight training and being away from Mom's cooking, I was in good shape at 190#.
The YoYo 80's - Out of college and working at a desk job, the weight piled on in the early 80's. By Nov' 82 I had ballooned up to 260# and my dick had gone into hiding. Covered with a fat filled mons pubis, that 1.5" was down to .5" (just the glans showing) and 3.5" erect. Faced with the prospects of being laughed out of bed, I went on a strict diet and exercise at rediscovered my penis. At a trim 210# and 34" waist, I met my 1st wife sporting a shy 5" erection. I definitely wasn't the largest that she had had, but I was adequate.
Married Life - Over the next 15 years, married life took it's toll. Seemed about every 2 years I'd pack on 20# and lose a quarter inch. By 1998, our sex life was non-existent. I couldn't blame her. Here was her husband that weighed 370# and both standing and laying down, I was negative inches flaccid. My erection wasn't much better... on a good day I could muster up 2.75" pressing as much as I could on the pad of fat. Combining my weight and size, very few positions offered any penetration.
In addition, my health was going down the drain as well. With a strong commitment to at least see my 50th birthday, let alone my 70th, I again took on the diet and exercise routine. Hitting a low of 237#, my wife was pleasantly surprised that I could offer 5.25". I was pleaed too, but frustrated that knowing my past cycle of weight gain, my new size would probably be short lived.
Discovering PE - In the fall of 2003, I had a long discussion with my doctor during my physical. My weight was around 280# and of course I was getting the disappearing act again from the little guy. She sent me to a specialist where I found out that I had secondary hypogonadism caused by my pituitary gland. I was put on a hormone replacement (Testim 50gm). She also told me that despite all the reports about how it was a waste of money trying to improve penile size, men was finding that there were some exercises that seemed to help some men. In the least, the exercises could stretch some of the groin ligaments and give me a little more size; a safer alternative then using surgery to cut on the ligaments. I was told to look into it.
I ended up starting in January 2004. Although I couldn't find as much information as we can today, I went on a simple PE routine of some warmup, followed by some stretching, and then kegels (worked up to 200 a day). I used the program for 8 months. With monthly measurements here is what I was able to achieve.
1/04 285# FL 2.75" FG 3.25" EL 4.5" EG 4"
2/04 281# FL 2.875" FG 3.25" EL 4.5" EG 4"
3/04 278# FL 3" FG 3.375" EL 4.625" EG 4"
4/04 279# FL 3" FG 3.5" EL 4.75" EG 4.25"
5/04 275# FL 3.25" FG 3.5" EL 4.875" EG 4.25"
6/04 273# FL 3.25" FG 3.5" EL 5" EG 4.25"
7/04 276# FL 3.25" FG 3.75" EL 5.25" EG 4.25"
8/04 272# FL 3.25" FG 3.75" EL 5.5" EG 4.5"
Unfortunately, my wife became ill the fall of 2004 and passed away Jun 2005.
New Wife - The next year was a series of ups and downs. Through it all, I picked up about 30# and lost most of my PE gains. I did finally meet a new woman. She was actually pleased that I was smaller. She said we were a prefect fit with my erection of 4.5". A lot of this is due to she is a small woman, only 5' tall. She has shared with me that her 1st husband was much bigger than me, but his size hurt her. Apparently, he didn't know how to take it easy. Obviously I don't know his exact size other than we are the same girth and she told me once that she could fit both hands on his shaft. So he is around 7x4 up to the glans.
My new wife can be playful and likes cute names. My penis has now been named "Turtle" because when she would push on the tip, my flaccid head would go in its shell. Also, although she says we are a "'perfect fit", I have been able to experiment and determine that she can handle more than what I have now and responds to it very favorably. I'll not explain my methods but her pleasure peaks out at 7"x5.5". So guess I have my ultimate goal!
Second time around - Although no complains and with an active sex life, this past 3 years worked me back to 350# and again a smaller size. Due to a busy summer, I could only work on dieting and a little exercise. Finally, starting Sep 13th I started my PE routine again.
The 1st 6 weeks I followed a beginners level routine:
Warmup using hot wash cloth with a rice sock on top for additional heat.
Rotating Stretches
Flaccid Bends
Oriental Massage to get a good erection
Jelgs
Uli Squeeze
Warmdown using hot wash cloth
Kegels throughout the day.
Starting this month I've switched out the Flaccid Bends for Bundled Stretches. Also, i have been doing traction taping for 2 hours after my routine and add in some fowfers when I get a chance.
My logs to date are:
Pre-PE
5/08/10 350# BPFL 1.5" FG 3.25" BPEL 3.5" EG 4.25"
Started PE
9/13/10 332# BPFL 1.75" FG 3.25" BPEL 3.75" EG 4.25"
10/11/10 318# BPFL 2.25" FG 3.375" BPEL 4.125" EG 4.375"
Revised routine
11/01/10 307# BPFL 2.375" FG 3.375" BPEL 4.375" EG 4.375"
11/09/10 301# BPFL 2.750" FG 3.5" BPEL 4.625" EG 4.5"
Dec 11' Goal 240# BPFL 4" FG 4" BPEL 6.5" EG 5"
Ultimate Goal 210# BPFL 4.5" FG 4" BPEL 7" EG 5.5"
Reaction so far - It may be wishful thinking, but it seems that the change to the bundled stretches is going to have a big impact. I do them with around a 20-30% erection. What I notice is a fullness not only in my penis for about 4 hours afterwards, I also feel a fullness internally on the shaft.
In the sexual department, last night my wife hesitated on the term "turtle". She actually commented that "turtle is ready to play". She appeared to enjoy intercourse more since she went for seconds.
Until next time ...
