How growth occurs

[NLarge]

I am 6 weeks into PE and I had a 1/4" length gain in a period of a week, from week 3 to 4. Is it typical for the penis to grow in spurts like this? I have another measurement coming up this weekend and I'm not expecting another quarter inch. But knowing that the gains come in short bursts would be great for the psyche.

The pace of growth differs from one guy to the next. Whether that .25" is actual growth or just an improvement in EQ (both are great things), only time will tell.

I've found that growth does come in spurts. You might not see any for 3-4 months and then you measure and say holy shit, I've gained 1/2". PE is weird.

Every newbie needs to know this so he doesn't get discouraged.

Some people grow in routine spurts. Some people grow consistently over periods of time. Some people grow sporadically.

I wish there was one golden rule for all of this, but there isn't unfortunately. But I'm working on it

If you stay consistent enough and perform the exercises correctly, the important thing is that you WILL grow.

I've noticed spurts happen as well- especially after layoffs.

Like a one week layoff every 3 months kinda layoff?

Thats cool, so consistency and patience are the name of the game. "If you jelq it, gains will come."

Usually one week off every 6 weeks or so.

I have noted that idea in the gym work and physical training in the past 10 or so years. Seems like you work along sometimes weeks or months and then it's just there. Funny how muscles in one parts of your body react like the other parts. Just one more piece of the puzzle.

I had about a week and a half off a while ago and when I measured, I'd grown nicely. This is why I think it's important to have breaks. Without breaks, your body never really has the time to recover and therefore will not grow as well (imho of course).
