Upward Hanging: How to go about it

I have been searching the website and forums for information as to how exactly go about upward hanging - to target the tunica? I have seen some references to the use of pulley’s but little else. Can you point me to where this information - detailed - is to be found?

Best way of hanging, some ideas

Back again. Still not clear on best ways for upward hanging to target the tunica - something I need to do because of low Lot. I am passing the chord attached to the Bib through a hook ring inserted in a desk- about four or five inches above level of penis when sitting. I attach the weight to the end of chord and this raises the penis upwards, about 90 degrees and stretches it. It is the best I could work out myself. But what do the experts do?

Fuck the lot theory, you won’t get any gains from that.

Why don’t you just sling the weight over your shoulder, or back up by a door and sling it over the door? Or a clothes hook on the door.

Your setup sounds fine. Upward hanging does not need to be straight up to work well. In fact, the optimal angle, as pointed out by MX some time ago, is about 10 o’clock. Hanging higher than that won’t give you a better upward stretch.

As for your low LOT, I really hope you don’t give that another thought. I’ve looked at LOT theory in great detail, and I don’t think it is a predictor of gains—even of “lig gains.” Feel free to hang in any direction that works for you—including SD and BTC. Many guys have seen gains from low angle hanging, even guys with low LOTs.

Am I the only one that has a problem with telling a guy who just joined this month and has 4 post to his name about hanging?

Peter, stick with the newbie routine until the end of January and then consider hanging. Read up on it yes, research it yes, do it, no. We don’t want people getting hurt and if you jump into some of the more advanced routines before you and your penis are ready, you could possibly get injured.

Modesto,

Aside from LOT, should someone still focus on a single angle at a time?

And what about focusing on ligs or tunica? Aside from LOT, does it still make sense to focus on ligs or tunica at a particular time?

Tivase,

I do generally focus on a single angle at a time. Whether one “should” or not is really an open issue. With all the attention IPR training protocols are getting, I wouldn’t be surprised if the optimal strategy is to mix up different angles. You could, say, do BTC on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and SO Tuesdays and Thursdays. We really don’t have enough data to say what works best, so feel free to improvise!

Regarding your question about ligs versus tunica work, one should first recognize that all hanging angles hit the tunica. The question is whether the stress you’re applying is intercepted by the ligs or extends all the way back to the pelvis. Hanging at low angles will interpose the ligs. Hanging at high angles will generally keep the ligs out of the way.

I think you want to do some of each. Whether you want to mix them on different hours, days, or weeks is up to you, but I think the best results come from a varied approach.

I hadn’t noticed, but I’m glad you did :) . The newbie routine is really safest for guys who are just starting out. It also gives excellent gains for many.

Good advice, and appreciated. I am at P.E. For almost three months, but could not join the forum because every time I tried I the registration page was closed to new members. Eventually last week I found the page open and registered. I am taking it slow - hanging one day out of three for 15 minutes 3 times, three pounds weight.

Oh, well that makes a difference. I just saw the join date and red flags went up. If you have your penis conditioned then hanging will be ok, and it sounds like you are doing it with a reasonable amount and what not. As you progress, we can move threads to hangers if you have specific questions until you hit the magic numbers.
