Jelqing, Hand stretching...

[13788]

speed: Okay, I have heard so much about jelqing, stretching etc.  I have tried these and have had decent results but now I'm tired.

Can I just use the Jes Extender or something and call it a day  (I know it takes months, you know what I mean).

Speed------No one can answer this question really, but YOU! How badly.....as in VERY badly, do you want gains?

You've had success already and that's good.
Congratulations! You're already ahead of some others who would NOT have "stuck with it" this long.

An extender or other device and/or approach will (as you've admitted already) require addtional time and effort.

Whatever you do to continue PE....including resuming what you had BEEN doing....will mandate a positive attitude and the desire to get results--NO MATTER WHAT. So you see, it really IS up to you where you go from here.

You're really at a crossroads between some success and achieving even MORE success. And, way down deep, you already know this. Best wishes.

Jim31415: I've experiemented with various types of extenders, but they were always uncomfortable and I never managed to stay with a program very long.

I've also jelqed on and off for years, sometimes keeping at it consistantly for a few months before losing the discipline to stay with it.

I've been more consistant with vacuum pumping and have made some gains. I can make large gains now that last about 24 hours and my size is larger than when I started. I'm pretty sure if I didn't maintain a consistant schedule of pumping that those gains would vanish as well. In my mind it's like body building (it's an analogy, I know the penis is not a muscle): if you stop lifting weights you lose your muscle mass. So if I keep pumping my cock is larger.

Has anyone else been consistant with an extendor/weights or jelqing and seen good results?

jim31415, the "bodybuilding" analogy might seem far-fetched, but in some ways it's not.

Just like in bodybuilding, PE produces plateaus, too--periods when NO results are apparent. Those are the times one then tries something else to "break" that pattern and resume the progress.

This I suppose is exactly why I tried SEVERAL different PE approaches over my three-plus years. I pumped and then extended, then did natural exercises and jelq...then went back to (some) pumping and extending again....I would stay with a particular PE method for a few months before "switching off" to another one. I noticed MANY plateaus for often weeks on end. They can be VERY frustrating and downright discouraging.
Combining SEVERAL PE techniques is what "did it for me" and I stand by that approach, personally.

Your success with pumping is commendable and if it's working for you, stay with it. We each respond differently to various PE techniques. It's the one reason men find PE frustrating and even mysterious to even consider. Will PE work for me? Well, a man must try (whatever) PE method and just see what happens. But, he must STAY with some PE technique long enough to give it a chance. THAT translates into weeks and weeks, month and months, even YEARS for many if not most of us. Many men simply give up--way too early.

(Some) pumping "gains" DO become permanent over a long period of time. IMHO here, continuing your pumping (but, safely so!) with some total "rest days" thrown in now and then .

THAT should be okay for now.
