I've never done anything but pumping, which I started in 1989. From that beginning, my routine has been 2 or 3 sessions per week, about 12 to 15 minutes per session. Each session starts by putting a thin coating of lube on my cock and around the cylinder gasket. The lube (I recommend Albolene) reduces the "burn" of the skin as it stretches when the session starts - for the same reason, I start with vacuum at about 5 mm, then increasing by 5 mm every couple minutes until reaching 15 mm. During the session, I often try to get myself sexually excited by pinching my nipples or similar to achieve a natural erection, too - but that's optional. In the last minute or two, I sometimes increase vacuum to 20 mm just to get a final stretch. Sometimes, especially if I know I'm going to have sex right after pumping, I'll put a cock ring on (at the base of my cock only) before I start so that the post-pump size will last longer - partners that are really into girth love this! It's a bit tricky though to find the right size ring that will still allow the cylinder seal to work - or that doesn't get pulled into the cylinder through the gasket. I have a plain brass ring that works well for me - it maintains the size and hardness for at least 30 minutes after pumping if the sex stays stimulating. Of course, after 30 minutes in a tight ring, some numbness will start - which makes it near-impossible to cum - but my partner is quite happy with the ride!
I would think that gaining an inch in girth should be achievable in a few years with this or a similar routine. Getting an inch in length would take longer - based on my own experience. Hope this is helpful - have faith, it takes time!
