Incredible Progress!

[Triceratops]

I've gone from 120% FEC to 150% FEC in 3 months! From CI-5 to 7!

I've been manual tugging somewhat obsessively you could say, about 2-3 hours daily for the past 3 months, since losing my "Your Skin Cone" for the last time. I tug for an hour on my way to work, an hour on the way home, and occasionally an hour at home in the evening. I tug on the weekends if there is an opportunity. I no longer need to wear a retainer! I can't say for sure how much inner vs outer growth. I use one manual tugging method almost exclusively, the one where you just pull on the skin tube with a few fingers. I've been focusing on where it seemed the shortest (the dorsal aspect) while tugging the rest quite a bit less. I can definitely see the dorsal has caught up while the entire tube has lengthened. At this rate, I should achieve my goal within a year or so!

There must be something to the cyclic tugging idea, as that is sort of what I'm doing. I tug firmly too. My skin has gotten used to it, but always gets tender again within a week of not tugging. So I just wanted to encourage everyone! Keep on tugging!

Awesome, how old are you? From what I've read age is a huge factor.

How do you tug manually on your way to work? Doesn't that get in the way of driving? Be ready for the techno-babble of disbelief from Info when he reads your post. Drum Roll please.........

I'm 31. I eat reasonably healthy and exercise frequently, so I have a fairly healthy lifestyle, aside from a smoking habit I'm working my way toward quitting. I don't drink alcohol. So I'm not that young but I do what I can to take care of my body.

I don't even need to look at my penis to tug. When in shorts, I just pull from down the pant leg. When in pants, I pull it through my boxers and tug using my shirt. I'm never exposed while driving. I traded in my stick shift for an auto recently, so that makes everything simple, no added distraction, and a good use of my otherwise boring commute. It's nowhere near the level of distraction of texting or drinking and driving.

So did you start restoring at CI5?

And yeah watch out, Info is gonna come on here and be a huge cock as usual

[Triceratops]

Haven't seen much of this info, but he must be something considering no one ever warned of Trombone, and that guy was awful. I started restoring at a CI-4 as a teen but never stuck with it. Tried off and on for years, eventually just wore a retainer and quit restoring. Lost my retainer a few months ago, tried and failed a few home made types, but realized yesterday that I dont even need one anymore. I'm excited to finally see "quick" progress after all these years. Now I finally have my restoration goals in sight!

Your lucky to have started with such a high CI number, I've heard a lot of poeple say going from CI3 to CI4 is the longest most frustrating stage. So how much benefit did you see from just retaining for so long?

And no, not as bad as Trombone. That guy was either an amazing troll or he just got off and making Poeple feel horrible. I'm suprised he didn't get banned.

You remember Trombone-head? I don't recognize your screen name from the old forum. Was it a different one?

[Violator]

No, I was just a lurker. Never been much for actually posting on forums but I figured I'd give it a shot this time since I'm gonna stick with it till I'm CI8

[parsecskin]

Oh, OK. good deal. CI 8 is about where you want to be. That's about where I was before I got cut.

Congrats!, I too have changed to cyclic and finally restarted growth. Found I cannot do o-rings at all - as it cuts circulation as do many forms of hard tugers and pinch like hell, so I've been tapping mainly over the years.

Now in addition - I've also been alternating with RTM and Chucks DTR - sorry Ron, but this one does not pinch the skin - especially with Chucks latest users suggestion, Cut off Condom Cather 36mm.
What a sensational soft /stretch gripper cone of an idea. Yes it can be a PIA to get it on, but feels 10/10 and grip (fantastic).

[Triceratops]

I don't think I got much benefit out of retaining aside from increased sensitivity. CI 4 to 5 took years of on and off tugging. Still haven't dekeratinized anywhere near what I'd hoped for.

I've been lurking this forum for years. Finally thought I'd give a bit of participation. I'm not stopping until CI 11, so after "settling" from no longer tugging, I'll be a solid CI 10. Probably like 300% FEC, lol.
