Cycling beyond a year?

Guys, I'm 14 months out and I've been cycling aggressively, about 2 hours a day. In your experience, is there any benefit to continue with the cycling program? I gained length and I'm 3/4" longer now, than I was going into surgery, but that seemed to have all occurred in the first 6-8 months, nothing since. I still enjoy giving myself a raging boner, just because I can, but is there any benefit for me to keep cycling beyond this point? Thanks for any input.

SteveSW,
Great results!! At almost 3 years post procedure, I still cycle daily, although not for long periods of time. (2 hours).

Are you realizing size gains?

Once there were no size gains I gave up cycling. Now it's only used for what it was intended for.

Like you, no more gains BUT...rock hard is a good thing. Love awakening in the morning and pumping...morning wood is good...Yes?

I often inflate early morning when getting up to piss, and then going back to sleep so when I do wake up, I have morning wood. Like you said, morning wood is good! And it's just fun.

I don't think there's a single reason not to, but I do see a lot of good reasons to.

I am inflating about an hour a day on average, if using it or not. Like you, the length gains were during the first 6 months only.

Good topic Steve, I,m emulating morning wood for an hour most mornings. I have not had any meaningful gains in a 2 months and
I am happy with the gains made past my surgery size -about half an inch. I worry a bit about erosion now so an hour is just about right to enjoy having a dependable hard on.

I'm a bit remiss in cycling anymore but I do occasionally because I feel like going too long without a right proper stretching might cause atrophic shrinkage and since I've lost so much since my heyday (between 1-2" based on an old video from 1995). In my case though, my implant reached critical mass (full extension) at about 5 months out and I rarely get very much pressure from cycling. I feel more girth pressure (and slight pain) at the base than anything else, but no TIP pressure anymore. Early on I could feel the pain in the tips where it was stretching everything out, but that's been gone over a year now.

Remember, when we were all organic, we had several raging erections per night. Now if we cycle once or twice a week, we are now down from ~21 good stretches per week to only 1-2 each week. The more the better IMO, but I believe there is also a tradeoff in how much wear and tear I want to put on the cylinders, tube connections and pump. If I can make this one last to the grave and still get use from it when I need to, GREAT. If I have to replace it due to wear or blow-out, well then - Oh shit! Gotta do it.
