That stuff seems to be happening to me a lot lately Pirate. Hence the hiatus on jelqing and squeezing....
It is funny how something like PE will fit nicely into your life for weeks or months and then suddenly you go through a patch where it seems like everything conspires against you. Oh well, like I keep telling other guys: it is not a race.
I stretched this afternoon and am currently wearing my xsleeve. (I find that I would really like to upgrade to an ADS that provides active stretching.) Anyway, I am still hoping to jelq and edge later.
I also plan to try Big Al's coaching once I am done with the 90 Days. I am ready for something new.

Hey Maelsukr!
Thanks for checking on me. I haven't quite finished JP's 90 yet but I am getting very close. I think that I have @ two weeks left.

I am pasting a Waylander post from elsewhere so that I don't lose it:
"I'm sure its in the exercise section Pirate, but millia's thread Step-By-Step Bundled Stretch (Caution; Pictures are thumbnails) has a real good explanation, and pics for it. Going411 has alot of experience with them, working on his monster :D"
Thanks again Waylander!

And if this didn't hurt your EQ, then sir, more power to you!
I really don't know how effective the xsleeve actually is beyond simple anti-turtling. I used to feel like I got a decent low intensity stretch from wearing it for long hours but I haven't felt that in a while. Perhaps I have gotten used to it or maybe the sleeve is just getting tired.
It doesn't seem to impact my EQ.

In your mind, really.

My experience with general sleeves was that it would initially give me a stretch; until my body got used to it. Then it was just a simple Anti-Turtling device. Would you consider using another form of sleeve that's more of an ADS as opposed to an Anti-Turtling Device?

Yes, but I would prefer something with a more active stretch. I like the ADS concept over hanging but it has to be something that I can wear at the office.

Jelqing last night was excellent. I used a mixture of bio oil and baby oil gel and it work very nicely.
I stretched this morning and then wore the xsleeve for 8 hours. Jelqing will have to wait until tomorrow morning.

how's your progress in numbers ?
So-so. Since starting JP's 90 two and a half months ago, I haven't regained my pre-break maximum BPEL but I have gained slightly in BPFSL and EG. However my EQ continues to improve and that is my top priority.
I felt large this morning but didn't have my ruler handy.

Jelqed this morning and it felt great. I really like the lube that I am now using: a mix of baby oil gel and bio oil.

sounds like you are making slow but good progress. the most important part is that you have sorted thing in your head. you have ability to perform persistent and quality PE regardless of gains.
