first clamping, wow!

I’ve been PEing for around 9 months now. Yesterday I tried my first clamping session with a cable clamp.

I have to say, wow! This has to be the best PE exercise thus far. I loved the way my cock became so vascular and thick, amazing!

My only problem was how tight to clamp, I ended up 2 clicks from the end on the medium clamp, not sure if this was too tight?

I’m still focusing on length, but will add a few clamping 5-10 minute sessions on alternative days from jelqing, does anyone else do hanging, clamping and jelqing in there sessions? Have you gained from doing all three together or does this risk over training?

My plan is:

4*20 minute hanging sets @ 14lbs. @ 7 DAYS
15 mins jelqing every other day i.e. 4 days
2*10 mins clamping alternate to jelqing days i.e 3 days

Ruz,

Your routine seems okay although I’ve never done any hanging. As far as over conditioning, listen to your unit it speaks louder than any advice you may get here.

I’m much newer than you, so you might not want to hear advice from me. I see you have already made some good gains, congratulations on that.

I’ve committed myself to become a student (and hopefully an eventual expert) on hanging, so I’m going to throw some advice your way. Please don’t be offended, and if you feel like I’ve said anything wrong/ incorrect, i would be interested to hear your feedback.

I don’t think you’ll find anyone doing clamping and hanging together. If you’re hanging properly it’s very intense for length gains—while clamping is very intense for girth gains. It may hurt your progress if you do too much at once. Reason: if you injure yourself, you’ll have to take a very long break.

I’m going to repeat this advice which you have probably read hundreds of times by now: Length first, girth second.

They use the metaphor that it’s harder to stretch a thicker elastic band. I.e. harder to make those microtears and deformation that will result in growth and permanent elongation.

Also, if you do hang, it’s best to split between morning/ night sets if you can commit the time. You’ll create new microtears, deformation, and stretch those crimps which can form in your ligs—and prevent them from healing shorter.

Something else, hanging is very ‘time-intensive’—if you do have extra time, and you’re interested in more length, you might be better off just spending that time hanging (vs clamping). Make sure to hit fatigue within the first 1-2 sets of session then ride the fatigue. Lower the weight as needed for later sets. If less weight gives you the result you want, that’s even better.
