When I started in Feb 2017 I managed about 1/8" length gain in 7 weeks doing the
Newbie Routine. At that point I was gifted a
BM and won a
LM and the gains started coming fast. Yes I was still a newbie but that stuff works. I was gaining some length without tools but no girth from jelqing. If I had to choose between the 2 it would be very difficult since the
BM can help with length as well. Girth is important to me but length is slightly more important.
Gotta find a way to keep at it, that's the hardest part. After my break of too damn long I'm hoping I get newbie gains again. My progress seemed very well cemented from before so maybe I'll get lucky and grow like a weed for the first 6 months. Being here gives me some more inspiration to work at it so don't run off and hide even if you're forced into an unwanted break for a week or two. I only ran off and hid because my body wasn't ready to start again (surgery) but now that I'm good enough to keep working I'm not going away.
Keep it up! You can gain in time. For example If you're 5" and trying to get to 7% you're attempting to gain 40% more. That's a lot when you think about it and won't happen overnight. Need to remain dedicated and know that five 0.2" gains are an entire inch. If you manage that every 3 months you'll be an inch bigger in 15 months. That's a lot to be proud of.
