Emotional Visualizations and Workout Schedule Challenges: Ask The Experts
Big Al, of MaleEnhancementCoach.com, answers questions about dealing with Emotional Visualization difficulties and busy schedule training.

Q. I’ve been having trouble with the Emotional Visualizations exercises for training.
They’re hard to do and I get frustrated doing it. What do you recommend?
Al: The Emotional Visualization exercises are for developing emotional mastery and a better kinesthetic sense. To summarize, BEFORE the session you should find a place to relax and to empty your mind of any thoughts. Optimally, your emotional state should be neutral, but if you could recall a positive emotional experience during sexual contact and can transfer some of that emotion into the session that would be optimal.
The difficulty comes from fighting the mind. The fighting in and of itself taps into “survival” emotions, which counters the process. A good analogy is to visualize your mind like a fist grasping at thoughts and mental dialog. When attempting the EVs picture yourself relaxing the fist- letting all of the thoughts dissipate. When the thoughts intrude (and they will) recenter yourself by focusing on your breathing, then picture yourself releasing again.
Go into it with acceptance- understanding that you’re going to be challenged. It may take 2-3 weeks of practice, but once you reach a threshold of viability you’ll find the process much easier and more rewarding.
Q. My schedule is very busy and I don’t always have time to do a full workout.
What are some ways someone in my situation can train?
Al: For best results, the exercises should be performed in one sitting. This is because the regimen is structured in a way where each exercise cascades into the next one.
As I see it, there are two possible solutions for getting in a full workout. The first would be to train first thing in the morning. The benefits are you’ll be taking advantage of high hormone levels upon awakening, and the motivation of having finished your session first thing in the day can carry over to the rest of the day. I recommend this option even if you have to wake up earlier.
If you don’t even have time for the above, maintenance exercises like JAI Stretches or light jelqs performed throughout the day can help to maintain conditioning. You might also consider a covert device like the Stealth or Phallosan.

Basic Supplements, Problems With measuring, and Adding Reps: Ask The Experts

Q. I would like to ask your opinion on sunflower lecithin.
It can increase cum? Also any supporting supplements need to go with it?
Al: Sunflower based lecithin should work well. Go for the granules over the capsules as it’s better economically. Take 1 tbsp each day until you achieve a good consistency- then you can maintain on 3-4 tbsp per week.
Make sure you’re well hydrated to maximize the effect.
Also make sure that you’re getting in adequate levels of zinc. If you take a daily zinc tab, take it with protein of some sort.
If you’re following a healthy diet then the above would be sufficient for maintaining optimal function.
Q. I have a problem. When I want to get an erection for my workouts or sex there’s no challenge but when I want to measure my penis doesn’t get a full hard up because I get nervous.
What can I do to fix this?
Al: Learning to relax by using Emotional Visualizations will help you to train your mind to encourage the desired emotional backdrop for your measures.
You might consider “surprise” measuring when it’s time. To do this, make sure you have your measuring implements available within easy reach. When you’re training or otherwise involved in activities where you have a maximum erection- stoop- then immediately measure before you have a chance to think much. This should allow you to bypass any associated anxiety.
An alternative is to measure BPFSL (Bone Pressed Flaccid Stretched Length). This measure is usually within 1/2 inch +/- BPEL (Bone Pressed Erect Length), and is considered a good predictor of immediate future length gains.
Q. What’s a good rate of increase for reps on my exercises?
Al: The amount of reps you add for an exercise with depend on a couple of factors: the amount of reps you’re currently performing and the exercise itself.
For most movements, you’ll start off at a relatively low rep count. For example, the Squeeze: 5 reps as per the Jelq Free Routine instructions. From there, you’d add 1 rep per session. You can keep this pace up until you hit the 20 rep mark, and from there you may begin to add 2 reps per session. This is because the rate of increase reflects a proportion of the whole.
Some exercises like jelqs and Side to Side stretches lend themselves to somewhat greater increases per session due to their ease of adaptability, but you’ll need to use indicators like how you feel after a session as well as your EQ to ensure you’re not adding too much (or too little).

Epiphany Moments, Targeting/Maintaining Erection Levels, and Adjusting The Jelq For Length or Girth: Ask The Experts
Big Al, of MaleEnhancementCoach.com, answers questions about epiphany moments, targeting and maintaining specific erection levels, and adjusting the jelq.

Q. I was wondering if any other members have experienced emotional breakthroughs with their training. Not so much about size but about confidence. Maybe it’s because I’m older, but I recently have hit a place in my life where I’m beyond caring about whether or not I’m good enough for someone. I’m doing this for ME, and if someone likes it then great! If not, the loss is theirs. It’s funny but when I embraced this viewpoint I feel like a weight has been lifted, and sex is actually fun again!
Al: Few things are as satisfying as observing someone having an epiphany moment! A person can come to the realization that the thing they feared was a creation of their own minds. It can be a step closer to learning how to put the ego in its place.
Emotional Visualizations are good for this, but true self-examination is necessary for this to be effective.
Q. I’m having a hard time keeping a 70% erection as instructed for my Squeezes. As soon as I start, my erection slowly declines after several reps and I need to stop to get the erection back. How do I counter this?
Al: Let’s say you’re targeting 70% average for Squeezes. You’ll induce an 80% erection then start the exercise- and continue it until you’re erection drops to 60%. This will give you a good range to work through and that 70% average.
Q. You mention altering the jelq exercise to target more length or more girth. So if I use a lower erection and less lube, it targets length, and more lube and erection targets girth? Is this so?
Al: Regarding the jelq: Correct on both counts. With less lube and erection, the exercise becomes more of a sliding stretch/length movement; whereas with more of an erection and lube it becomes more of a compression/girth movement.
With the higher erection/more lube variant, you’ll also want to slow donw the cadence for each rep slightly.
