I haven't checked in much since "snow-magedden" here in the southern US a couple weeks back. Let me address some comments/questions now.
I work from home, so I have a great deal of flexibility during the workday, assuming my son is at school or therapy and my wife is working. When they are both home (like when it snows 20 inches in three days), it doesn't happen.
So, I don't really get an immediate, lasting bump from the jelq workouts themselves. My workouts are usually in the mornings or early afternoons, and especially lately, I've only been doing them three days on, four days off. What ends up happening is not like what I hear people talk about with pumping, where there's a lasting effect immediately after the session for the rest of the day or whatever. What happens for me is after the workout I pretty much go to a baseline hang (which is still longer than it used to be), but then as the afternoon and evening progress, my flaccid hang plumps and gets longer. Nowadays, when I go to the bathroom in the evenings I am almost always hanging below my balls, which was never a thing before PE.
As for breaking through a plateau, I really can't say. I might be in one now, but I've consciously decided to measure less often after I hit my 2" BPEL gain. I'm planning to continue with what I'm doing at the moment for another 4-5 weeks before I measure again. At that point, if I haven't gained, I'll think about doing something different.
Each directional stretch is held for 30 seconds, and I sort of slap it around after each stretch and work "around the clock" up, up right, up left, down, down right, down left, then repeat another time, then do side-to-sides. Right now I'm doing 500 side-to-sides, resting for 10-30 seconds between sets of 100. The intensity thing is hard to describe. I do it by feel. It's pretty intense, but not to the point of pain.
Yo, good to hear from you! I use a small Cable Cuff Pro I picked up at Home Depot. I clamp it down to 2-3 clicks from the end, but it took a bit to dial that in. I normally use it when edging after stretching and jelqing. 12 mins on, then edge and/or squeeze a bit, and repeat as time/patience allows. I don't use a pad either. It might be a good idea, but I found a sweet spot without it, so I never bothered. LOTS of fractionated coconut oil, though!
