Stumpy's Progress Log

[Stumpy]

May 2012:
200 jelqs; which generally takes close to 20 minutes.
5 on / 2 off; Monday to Friday; no sessions were missed during the month.
Added in 6 x 10 second stretches in the shower post jelq and 2 to 5 second
piss pulls throughout the day.

Specific notes:
14 May 2012: 200 jlqs. Experimented with grip (as well as positive visualisation) after watching blulite's video. Resulted in significant
donut / edema. Will no doubt be clear by tomorrow.

15 May 2012: 200 jlqs; as expected, edema quickly dissipated ... it always does; have been adding in a few stretches and piss pulls. Just 2 to 10
second holds in the shower etc.

28 May 2012: Concentrated on visualisation and stretching during jelqs and ended up with edema to left and underside. Never any lasting negatives from
this but I must be doing something wrong?

1 Oct 2012: 25 min and 15 min 13.75kgs BTC; 80 jlqs; 6 hrs ADS; struggled
with hanging, possibly due to slightly elevated angle (trying to read) and

9 Oct 2012: nil
10 Oct 2012: 20 + 15 mins 15kgs BTC; 80 jlqs; 6 hrs ADS. Struggled
mentally due to tiredness.
11 Oct 2012: 2 x 20 min 15kgs BTC; 80 jlqs; 7 hrs ADS. Edema on top
underside, possibly due to wrap. Mentally ok after better sleep.
12 Oct 2012: 20 min 15kgs, 20 min 16.25kgs BTC; 80 jlqs; nil ADS; used
higher attachment, seemed okay, some red dots near base

15 Oct 2012: 2 x 20 min 16.25kgs BTC; 100 jlqs; 6 hrs ADS
16 Oct 2012: 20 + 5 min 16.25kgs BTC; 100 jlqs; 6 hrs ADS. First set went
very well, second set the skin burn was not tolerable ?? Will continue to
aim for two sets but as long as I get one completed I won't beat myself up.
17 Oct 2012: 2 x 20 min 16.25kgs BTC; 100 jlqs; 6 hrs ADS, First set good,
second set was fine ... a little skin burn.
18 Oct 2012: 2 x 20 min BTC; 100 jlqs; 5.5 hrs ADS
19 Oct 2012: 20 min 16.25kgs 20 min 17.5kgs BTC; 100 jlqs; 6 hrs ADS

22 Oct 2012: 20 min 17.5kgs BTC; unsuccessful attempt at 2nd set due to
comfort and headspace, skin split again. 100 jlqs, nil ADS. May need to
look at SD hanging. Have hit the 3 month wall and need to ensure I keep
momentum.
23 Oct 2012: 5 min 17.5kgs, dropped to 15kgs for remaining 15 mins; 100
jlqs
24 Oct 2012: 15 min 15 kgs BTC; 100 jlqs, need to re-examine wrap and
perhaps go to SD in order to keep my head in the game
25 Oct 2012: made 20 mins at 15 kgs BTC; I'm sure this is discomfort and
mental fatigue rather than the elusive hanging fatigue; 100 jlqs

29 Oct 2012: 2 x 20 min at 15kgs SD; 100 jlqs; the change to SD was much
more comfortable, changed wrap but that still needs work, might begin
increasing weight if I can get the wrapping right

1 Nov 2012: 20 + 10 min 15kgs SD; 100 jlqs; attached closer to glans which
may have caused discomfort / pinching in 2nd set, or perhaps it was mental?
2 Nov 2012: 20 at 15kgs; 20 at 16.25kgs SD; 100 jlqs; moved attachment back
slightly. More comfortable, but more underside edema than usual perhaps
due to not unwrapping between sets.

5 Nov 2012: 2 x 20 min at 16.25kgs; 100 jlqs. Started new wrap. Went ok
6 Nov 2012: 2 x 20 min at 16.25kgs; 100 jlqs.

9 Nov 2012: 2 x 20 min at 16.25kgs; 100 jlqs. Kept wrap slightly back from
coronal ridge to hopefully address creasing, dryness. Forgot to increase
weight!

12 Nov 2012: 2 x 20 min at 17.5kgs; 100 jlqs
13 Nov 2012: 2 x 20 min at 17.5kgs; 100 jlqs. Used shorter wrap. Not sure
if grip improved.
14 Nov 2012: 2 x 20 min at 17.5kgs; 100 jlqs. Used even shorter wrap. Not
sure if grip improved.
15 Nov 2012: 2 x 20 min at 17.5kgs; 100 jlqs.
16 Nov 2012: 20 min at 17.5kgs; 20 at 18.75kgs (41.25lbs!); 100 jlqs.

19 Nov 2012: 2 x 20 min at 18.75kgs; 100 jlqs. Significant edema on
underside near glans. Will monitor.

21 Nov 2012: 2 x 20 min at 18.75kgs; 100 jlqs.
22 Nov 2012: 2 x 20 min at 18.75kgs; 50 jlqs. Used theraband wrap. No real
difference to grip or edema.
23 Nov 2012: 20 min at 18.75kgs; 20 min at 20kgs (44lbs!); 100 jlqs

Read PEGym thread about gripping internals. Have ordered malehanger. I'm
sure I'm still not getting this right.
26 Nov 2012: 20 min at 20kgs; 12 min at 20kgs; 100 jlqs. Tried forming
shoulders but ended up with bigger, bruised edema and glans.
Decided to take a decon break until my malehanger arrives. Will continue
with moning jelqs and occasional piss pulls throughout the day.

Any gains from hanging. Your a hard gainer also right?

 

[BigO]

Well I have been looking thruogh your log and what I have seen is that you have the ability to hang heavy weights but you have mostly done one or two sets a day, when you were hanging a while back for a brief time yoy were doing 4 to 5 sets a day at light weight. Do you have any period of time where you have experimented with riding fatigue from hanging? With hanging it will be a good thing to hot a level of fatigue and then to ride it as long as you can. An example would be to hang your max weight for one set and if you cant do it for a second then drop and hang what you can and do the same on following sets, drop and hang what you can. I would suggest at least 3 sets a day and drop everything else, of course you could still wear your extender. You could also do some sets in the vening if you can find the time. Does your wife know that you do this now. I noticed in the beginning she didnt know.
