One of the most important tools in your training arsenal will be your journal. Not only will your journal give you accountability, it will chart your progress AND give you an idea of what works best for you, over time.

We highly recommend you take “before” pictures, preferably with you measuring, before you start training.

Follow up length and girth measurements should be taken every two weeks.

Measuring Length:

It is important that you measure under optimal and similar conditions each time. This will ensure you’re getting valid comparisons. Take a tape measure, ruler or string and press one end of it as far back as it will go against your pubis. While the suggested method is to measure along the top of your penis, some men prefer to measure from the bottom or sides. What is important is regularity in the way you measure.

Measure along the curve of your penis to the end of the glans.
Measure along the curve of your penis to the end of the glans. Measuring Bone Pressed Flaccid Stretched Length (BPFSL) is an alternate form of measuring length that doesn’t require an erection. To measure BPFSL, grasp the penis behind the glans – and be sure to retract any excess skin away from the glans before setting your grips – the stretch it out and downwards. Measure from the pubis to the end of the glans.

Measuring Girth:

While most recommend measuring along the mid-shaft, you may measure along any axis of your penis- as log as you do so consistently.

Wrap a piece of string around your penis and mark the measurement on the string. From there, check the measurement against a ruler. You may also use a measuring tape for this purpose.

Some men prefer to measure their girth via the largest point of circumference. That works as well- as long as you’re consistent in measuring the same spot each time.

Measuring Erection Quality (EQ):

You should assess your “Erectile Quality” (EQ) each training day. Erectile Quality is a combination of penile hardness and stamina and is usually rated on a scale of 0 to 10 with “0” being completely impotent and with “10” being your ideal level of hardness and stamina. You may use whatever metric for measuring EQ you like – morning wood, sexual performance, EQ during training, etc. – as long as it is consistent and reliable.

How to Increase Training Volume and Intensity:

The most consistently successful approach to progressing each cycle involves using the “two steps forward, one step back” method. The most accurate way of doing this is to sum the lowest and highest rep counts in a previously completed cycle and divide this figure by 2. This will give you an “average” and the rep point to start the new cycle with. You may also choose to go back to the mid-point of the previously completed cycle for the same effect – although the averaging method is more accurate.
