Strange , BPSFL is 6.4" tonight .
Don't know what to think of this .
Been off 2 days .
Lets see , no random wood today ,but, no reason to have horn either .
I remember having wood this morning , but was having to be at the job site on time .
So I just got up and did it .
Just working , no stimulus . Didn't even have a sexy thought . Too busy .
Hmm , all negatives .
Well , I seem to want to talk my way out of PE tonight .
How ever , That would be too easy . So , Executive Decision !!
PE wins !!!
That feels better . Yeah !!!
IR lamp - continuous
20 min . -V type wet jelqs - very light touch .
That's all !
Cool down with cold sock .

No club today .
No DTR either ,dammit . Just taped all day since last night .
p90x - Legs , Back , and Ab Ripper X . These are the ass kickin '.
mael out !!!

Thanks guys for commenting . Some times I feel like the only nut stretching his dick .
And then y'all show up . I guess I love nuts . LOL !!! I Love this place !!!:becky:

 

[millia]

How is the P90X working for you? Seeing any muscular gains/fat loss?

Hey millia , thanks for asking . The routine is kick ass . Started April 1 , and so far , so good .
I've done them a couple of times and already I see definition and flexibility .
I'm not really fat per say , just out of shape . Started at 184 lbs . Now I'm 179 lbs .
What I thought would be easy is difficult and vice verse .
Of course , every time I cycle through the routines , I get better at them .
I really see where I've work to do .
Didn't you say that you've done p90x also ? How were they in your opinion ?
The Ab Ripper X section is one that I love to do . Seems everything is core work .

[DryJelq]

Hey Mael, what is your BPEL in relation to your BPFSL? Also if you don't mind me asking, is your erection straight or curved?

 

[maelsukr]

Say DJ , How are you these days ?
My BPEL is 6.2" and my BPFSL is 6.5" .
My unit has an up wards curve .
Hey , I don't mind at all .
I figure you'll have something to say that will benefit my progress .
So , thanks .
mael out !!!
I was going to give you a rep point , but can't .Anyway you got one from me .

Hey mael that's fantastic new! Congrats on your weight loss, seen any change in your fat pad in relation to how it was before, like when measuring BP?
I didn't do P90X persay. What I did was the Ab Ripper X workouts in substitute for my own ab routine. I was doing my own personal lifting routine in conjuction with Ab Ripper. I did one of the other workouts I think Chest Back & Arms. But it kicked my ass completely and I did it a second time with my friend but lost interest in it because I prefer lifting my own way. It also messed with my left elbow which pops while doing certain weight exercises. And I'm also tentative because both my biceps tendons still have the tendinitis from a year and a half ago and don't want it to inflame more.
Question though, as you progress through are you seeing more definition? Because when my foot heals I want to attack the hell outta my triceps, not the part above the elbow, but below the shoulder. Have you seen any changes there?

How much girth exercises are you doing? I feel you should do at least 2 nice girth workouts every week when you are focusing on length. Then do length like 5 times a week. That has been working quite well for me lately. You've been at this a while, don't be afraid to do a couple more advanced girth exercises. But only do them twice a week at the most.

millia , Yeehaw !! Thanks man ! And my fat pad hasn't changed . Seems that will take more core work .
However , I've more definition through-out . I will re-measure at the end of April , and see what's changed .
I'm sure my chest and waist have . And biceps . --- Well . everything has changed .
Not sure what area you speak of . I do row -shoulder work at 100 lbs x 30 reps x 2 . These have helped my upper back .
Did your injuries come from p90x ? They can be hard on joints . I know I have to be careful with some of them .
Get that foot back on line . I'm sure you're antsy to get back at it .

 

[millia]

No problem brotha man!
And bleh, sorry I didn't realize the nature of my question, I was asking for myself and found the answer for myself, my bad!
No my injuries didn't come from P90X they came from a year of college football. Fall of '08 and still present to this day, just not as bad. I just don't do any strictly shoulder oriented lifts.
I really wish I could speed up my foots healing process, but I really can't do much other then sit around, eat, and get fat. I do have to elevate it more, and some new bruises showed up on my foot which is strange, it's been a week and a day since I broke it!
Anyways enough about me in your progress log, good stuff on your P90X and PE. 2 of the best workouts you'll ever experience in life
Oh yeah and how's the Yoga and the Cardio stuff? Never done it and was always curious about it. I heard your flexibility increases from the Yoga.

DJ , I was thinking of JP's newbie routine . However , I have a good feel for compressive squeezes and inner pulls .
I was thinking back when I started and really liked JP's .

I'm thinking of JAI , Rotary and Directional Stretches , for length .
And some combo of squeezes and pulls and jelqs for girth .
I agree with doing girth 2 days . I can get carried away sometimes .
mael out !!!

 

[calixto]

Cool Mael, way to go, I LOVE those combo stretch-jelqs you speak of, good deal mein bruder!!!

Hey millia , don't worry about posting here . This is all info for me to refer to if need be .
I think what you're seeing is bruise from the injury coming to surface . Just keep it up and let it heal itself .

The yoga will kick your ass . I did it years ago , and never sweated like this before .
However , You will be flexible . I can't do some of the routine , I just do what I can , and keep up .
mael out !!!

 

[millia]

I see I see. I wouldn't mind some flexibility because I'm not flexible at all lol. I know my girl would love it.
And yea that's what it is, even though its been a week, the swelling hasn't gone down at all, so it's awesome. My foot felt like it was gonna explode yesterday. Hopefully the inflammation goes down or else I get to go back to the doctor.. And maybe convince him to give me stronger pain killers too

Here's what I found about sugar and smooth muscle . I'll try it here first and then pass it on .

http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2010/04/20/sugar-dangers.aspx#_edn1

Click the article about sugar and it's effect on the body .
Scroll up to the part that heads : Eating Fructose is worse than eating fat .
You come in at the bottom of the article .
It tells how sugar interferes with smooth muscle and nitric acid .

[diesel121]

Congrats on the gain Mael! I was looking at your starting stat of 5.5 which is just a bit under what I'm starting with, I'm hoping I can reach 6.2 in only 3 months! What part of your routine do you feel contributed most to your gains? I'm on my second month of JP's routine but just recently added light flacid bends and JAI's as additional stretching. Good luck bro! can't wait to see your current stats at 7"x6.

Eating Fructose is Far Worse than Eating Fat

However, the physiological problems of fructose metabolism extend well beyond a couple of pant sizes:

• Fructose elevates uric acid, which decreases nitric oxide, raises angiotensin, and causes your smooth muscle cells to contract, thereby raising your blood pressure and potentially damaging your kidneys.[1]
  
  Increased uric acid also leads to chronic, low-level inflammation, which has far-reaching consequences for your health. For example, chronically inflamed blood vessels lead to heart attacks and strokes; also, a good deal of evidence exists that some cancers are caused by chronic inflammation. (See the next section for more about uric acid.)
• Fructose tricks your body into gaining weight by fooling your metabolism—it turns off your body’s appetite-control system. Fructose does not appropriately stimulate insulin, which in turn does not suppress ghrelin (the “hunger hormone”) and doesn’t stimulate leptin (the “satiety hormone”), which together result in your eating more and developing insulin resistance.[3] [4]
• Fructose rapidly leads to weight gain and abdominal obesity (“beer belly”), decreased HDL, increased LDL, elevated triglycerides, elevated blood sugar, and high blood pressure—i.e., classic metabolic syndrome.
• Fructose metabolism is very similar to ethanol metabolism, which has a multitude of toxic effects, including NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease). It’s alcohol without the buzz.

These changes are not seen when humans or animals eat starch (or glucose), suggesting that fructose is a “bad carbohydrate” when consumed in excess of 25 grams per day. It is probably the one factor responsible for the partial success of many “low-carb” diets.
One of the more recent findings that surprised researchers is that glucose actually accelerates fructose absorption, making the potential health risks from HFCS even more profound.[1]
You can now see why fructose is the number one contributing factor to the current obesity epidemic.
​

I've known this for a while because my step-mom has some health issues, doctors think she's pre-diabetic so we've been eating a lot healthier as a house-hold. We avoid foods that are high in high fructose corn syrup. Because it is worse then sugar and will make you gain weight like crazy, as well as raise your blood sugar levels.

diesel , Thanks for stopping by . All my gains were from JP's routine . I have since tried several other exercises .
All I can say about that is , stick with what is working NOW . I've had several breaks from overdoing my work-outs and wasting time with other methods .
And am re-starting a modified routine . I think that's the reason for my slight increase in length .
I think what was the best for me , was being consistent . And not over thinking what I was doing .
You know , I little knowledge , and ego , can halt all progress . LOL !!!
Just stay centered on what your goal is , and you will do fine .
You oughta be seeing some growth already . It's very satisfying when the tape says : you got gains !!
