Monday, May 28, 2012. Week 13, Day 1.

Didn't have a chance to do any jelqing over the weekend, so I basically went 4 days without any PE workout. Back with a vengeance, though, and will try for 5/5/5 today. Also, I'm considering doing some skin stretches to counteract the "turkey neck" that I seem to be getting. This is a good sign, though, that the hanging is working, because if there weren't any growth, turkey necking wouldn't be an issue, right?

5 lbs for the first set, some noticeable fatigue, will try 2nd set at 5 lbs, but will lower it if there is more fatigue.

Between first and second sets, I waited only 1.5 minutes for my semi-erection to go down before wrapping. This required that I re-wrap, as it became too loose as my penis lost the erection from the clamping of the hanger. Lesson: wait the full 2 minutes after the 8 minutes of jelqing for the erection to go down before wrapping.

Will try 5 lbs for the third set as well.

Tuesday, May 29, 2012. Week 13, Day 2.

I will try for 5/5/5 today. If it succeeds, I will increase my max load to 5.5 lbs tomorrow. After the first set, 5 lbs created significant fatigue, but will still try for 5 lbs for the second set.

Finishing out with 5 lbs for the third set. I need to cut a new wrap for next time, make it wider so I can do a tri-fold and have it be comfortable.

Tomorrow, starting with 5.5 lbs!

Wednesday, May 30, 2012. Week 13, Day 3.

Starting with 5.5 lbs, probably will have to reduce it after the first set. Second set will start with, tentatively, 4.5 lbs. It's quite a drop, but then again it's the first day back at 5.5 lbs in a while. We'll see how it goes. Baby steps...

First set, noticed significant fatigue that I got used to fairly quickly. Slight burning sensation due to skin stretching, and the new wider wrap I made today made it more comfortable to wear. Second set, will reduce to 5.0 lbs and see how that feels.

By end of third set with 4.5 lbs, felt good but had adequate strain and fatigue. Will keep it at 5.5/5/4.5 for tomorrow as well.

Thursday, May 31, 2012. Week 13, Day 4.

Trying to stay with 5.5/4.5/4 today. So far the first set has yielded sufficient fatigue and strain to warrant a decrease in weight. Although I think I wrapped it differently since it's pinching the underside of the shaft. I'll try to wrap better for the second set.

After the first set, there was what looked like blisters or bubbles that formed on the skin of the shaft, near the head. These went away after only a few minutes of jelqing, so I guess they were from skin deformation only, and not deformation of any internal structure. Could explain the pinching sensation felt during the first set.

About 9 minutes into the second set, I noticed a sharp pain near the base of the shaft (on the right side). I immediately reduced to 4.5 lbs, and it subsided, mostly. After 2 more minutes the pain returned, so I further reduced to 3.5 lbs. Pain still there but dull. Will reduce to 2.5 lbs for third set.

Friday, June 1, 2012. Week 13, Day 5.

Since there was significant fatigue yesterday, I decided to start today with 5 lbs instead of 5.5. I'll try for 5/5/5 and see how that goes.

Felt a slight sharp pain during the second set, at around the 9 min mark, so I reduced to 4 lbs for the third set.

Monday, June 4, 2012. Week 14, Day 1.

Starting with 5.5 lbs again, first set went fine, lots of skin stretching. I will continue with 5.5 lbs for the second set.

Second set resulted in very little strain. I think it's because of the way I wrapped it: made sure the skin on anterior of the shaft was tighter than usual (ie- pulled out the back).

Third set resulted in some significant strain and fatigue on the internals near the base of the shaft. I will start tomorrow with 5.5 lbs, and lower it to 5 lbs in the first set if it seems like too much, which I feel it likely will be (too much).

Tuesday, June 5, 2012. Week 14, Day 2.

Started with 5.5 lbs, felt a little strain, will try 5.5 lbs again for the second set.

Second set resulted in a little more fatigue, but not that much more. No sharp pain, so will reduce to 5 lbs for the third set.

Third set went without any serious indications of too much weight. I think for now 5.5/5.5/5 is perfect. I'll keep it up until I feel I need to try 5.5/5.5/5.5.

Hey Qarzan, excuse me for reading only first five pages of your progress before posting a question. Do you get morning wood almost every morning? What is the pattern of occurrences of morning wood have you noticed? I had been getting morning wood for the first few PE sessions, but recently I have not been getting them at all. I really want to get it back.

 

[Qarzan]

PK: To answer your question, I get morning wood most mornings. I'd say, probably around 60-70% of the time. What really hinders it is if I have irregular sleep patterns or get very little sleep. This will make it less likely that I'll have morning wood. Also, because I'm hanging now, morning wood is less frequent than with just jelqing. With jelqing, I had a raging hard-on every single morning. With hanging, it's around 60-70% of the time, as stated above.

Wednesday, June 6, 2012. Week 14, Day 3.

Started with 5.5 lbs for first set, might have to end my PE workout early because of a class I have to attend, we'll see how it goes.

First set there was significant skin stretching and a little stretching of the internals. Will attempt 5.5 lbs for second set as well.

Stopped after the second set because I needed to start my class soon.

Thursday, June 7, 2012. Week 14, Day 4.

Starting with 5.5 lbs for the first set, things seem to be going well. Will try 5.5 lbs for second set as well.

Reduced to 5 lbs for third set, everything seemed fine. Still feels like I needed to reduce for the third set, though, so will likely continue with 5.5/5.5/5 for tomorrow.

Friday, June 8, 2012. Week 14, Day 5.

Going for 5.5/5.5/5 again today. Last night I noticed some bruising on the skin of my shaft near the base (top right side). I think this was due to skin stretching. It looked significantly better this morning, as in, nearly gone, but I'll keep an eye on it to see if it gets any worse.

First set at 5.5 went as expected.

Tuesday, June 12, 2012. Week 15, Day 1.

Skipped Monday because I was too busy unpacking. I just moved to San Francisco! This will be my first hanging routine in the new place. Door locked, blinds drawn, ready to get down to business.

I will try for 5.5/5.5/5.5, but may need to reduce to 5 for the third set. First set yielded some strain from skin stretching, will likely correct this with clamping the hanger closer to the middle of the shaft instead of closer to the base.

Second and third sets went well. Now we will see if I can maintain it for a second day in a row. If so, it's on to 6 lbs for Thursday!

Wednesday, June 13, 2012. Week 15, Day 2.

Trying for 5.5/5.5/5.5 today. First set yielded typical strain and fatigue at low levels.

Second set came and went with no real problems. Time to try the third set at 5.5 lbs! If all goes well, I'm ready to try 6 lbs for the first set tomorrow!

Third set came and went with no excessive strain or fatigue. Time to use 6 lbs for the first set tomorrow!

Also, another measurement due on Friday. We'll see how much progress I've made in the past month.

Thursday, June 14, 2012. Week 15, Day 3.

Starting out with 6 lbs for the first time! I foresee that I will have to reduce to 5 or 4.5 for the second set. Here we go!

First set down, not nearly as much strain as I thought there would be. I'll reduce to 5.5 lbs for the second set and see where it goes from there.

Second set resulted in little strain, reducing to 5 lbs for the third set.

Third set turned out well, tomorrow I may try 6/5.5/5.5.

Friday, June 15, 2012. Week 15, Day 4.

Going to try for 6/5.5/5.5.

First set at 6 lbs went well. Roommates want to meet up somewhere, I'll likely stop after the second set. Therefore, I'd like to do 6 lbs for the second set as well. We'll see how it goes!

For some reason, timer stopped in the middle of the second set, so I don't know how long I actually hung for the second set. Stopped once I noticed it since I didn't want to risk over-hanging and causing injury.

Monday, June 18, 2012. Week 16, Day 1.

Going to try for 6/6/5 today. First set at 6 lbs yielded expected skin stretch and a bit of fatigue near the base of the shaft. Will continue with 6 lbs for second set and see how that feels.

Second set yielded a bit more fatigue near the base of the shaft, but otherwise fine. I still feel like I should reduce weight for the third set, because I can sense a third set at 6 lbs would result in some sharp pains fairly quickly. Will reduce to 5 lbs as planned.

Third set at 5 lbs was perfect. Felt strain and fatigue, but not too much. Will keep it at this for tomorrow, unless it feels uncomfortable.

Tuesday, June 19, 2012. Week 16, Day 2.

First set at 6 lbs, yielded considerable fatigue and strain. Will reduce to 5.5 lbs for second set.

Second set went well, will stay with 5.5 lbs for third set.

Third set had considerable strain on the skin, so around 6 mins in, I stopped the timer, re-did the wrap so it was tighter, and re-attached the hanger. I think it's because I didn't allow enough time between the second jelq session and when I attached the hanger at the beginning of the third set. I usually leave 2 minutes, but this time I wasn't keeping an eye on the timer and only had 20 seconds. This leads to the wrap being too loose after some time as the erection slowly dissipates. A loose wrap leads to a lot of slipping, and hence requires the hanger to be tighter. This causes more stress on the skin and hence more pain.

Pain was solved after re-wrapping.

Wednesday, June 20, 2012. Week 16, Day 3.

Going to try for 6/6/5.5 today. I think the secret is in the wrap and waiting for any erection to dissipate before wrapping. Otherwise, the wrap will be loose and it will hurt.

First set resulted in normal strain and fatigue, will try for 6 lbs for the second set, as well. Will likely have to reduce to 5.5 lbs for the third set, maybe reduce more than that.

Second set didn't yield any surprises. I will try for 6 lbs for the third set, too!

Third set at 6 lbs started out fine, but then around the 9 min mark I felt a sharp pain and reduced to 5 lbs immediately.

Thursday, June 21, 2012. Week 16, Day 4.

Had a friend invite me to a comedy show tonight, so I'm just going to do 2 sets so I can get out of here by 5:30. Planning on two sets of 6 lbs. Will try to do a full 3 sets tomorrow.

Friday, June 22, 2012. Week 16, Day 5.

Trying for 6/6/5.5 today.

First set yielded some skin stretch strain. Will have to correct the wrap for the second set. Actually very little fatigue for the internals.

Second set felt fine, but then I noticed severe discoloration and stopped immediately when noticed.

Third set, I decided to go a bit lighter. I think the wrap was not situated correctly, and the head was hard due to it being squeezed. I stopped the third set early after 10 minutes to avoid injury. and went directly to the warm-down.
