POLL: Your Limiting Factor

I voted on both the Yes’ because I didn’t know if I had the cord before PE also. I am also doing something to combat the cord. (Belt hanging) Only time will tell if it’s working. I believe it did originally earlier in the year but as of lately I’m not so sure. And of course the gains earlier in the year could of been due to other things. But hopefully at least belt hanging stretches the cord and allows any further PE I do to give gains and the cord won’t be a limiting factor.

What, prae tell, is belt hanging!!?

Whatever it is, it gives me an idea!.

Instead of hanging weights off the end of my penis and then using a fulcrum to target the cord, I’m going to use my penis as a fulcrum and hang weights from the middle of my dick, while attaching the head to something that won’t move!

mwhahahaha! I’m going to try it now.

P.S. if that’s what belt hanging is then I take full responsibility for calling it so! :p

Lol that’s basically exactly what it is. I have a belt with weights either end leaving the middle clear. I place the belt over my shaft. I do it in 3 points, middle, closer to the base and nearer the head. Then I grab my dick with an over hand okay grip and pull it up so the weights hangs down on the shaft. Sounds like the perfect thing to combat the cord right?

All credits go to kaan. Audacia - Hanging With A Karate Belt Although he does it slightly different to how I described. I pull my dick right up these days so all of the pressure is along the shaft and there’s no lig stretching.

Hahaha! Well thanks Kaan. I tried doing it, except I used a piece of a T-shirt I have slowly sliced into peices of my PE career, which I tired into a loop, put that on my penis and hung weights off it. The surface area of the shirt that contacts the dorsal part of my penis is only about 3/16th of an inch across, I feel a belt would spread the force too far and so have less impact. I found any smaller than 3/16” and it would hurt too much.

It does seem like the perfect exercise for targeting the cord and nothing else, only problem is it’s quite labour intensive, having to hold your penis up with force pependicular to the tension of the weight, bah!

The belt I use, I fold in half or it would take up to much shaft thus be really awkward to make the you-Bend type pull where the belt hangs. I assume you’re pulling right up and close to your body as well. And yes it is really rough on the hands! I’m doing my stretches and things before hand, if I did the belt hanging first my strength would be down considerably. I’m doing like 20lb still. 2 Sets of 10mins. Kaan last I heard was doing over 30lb! My only tip for grip is tearing off strips of toilet paper and wrapping around just under the head. By the way I doubt any of this does the deflated glans much good.

I’m not sure I understand what you mean. I pull my dick out so its (ideally) horizontal to the floor, then hang weight from the middle of it. I can only do about 2.5Kg (~5lb). Also I don’t time it as such, and I move the cloth that joins the weights to different locations along my shaft throughout a ‘set’. A set for me involves dorsally heating my shaft with IR then hanging weights untill my penis completely cools.

I posted a pic on kaans page of how I do it. (I made a typo saying overhand looks awkward which is how I hold it lol. But in the picture is how I originally did it but it was awkward having to put the belt nearer the head. (I was hoping for lig gains too at that stage)

Now I lift up my hand. Lets say I pull my dick straight out like you said and place the belt in the middle of my shaft. I then lift up my hand and pull it closer into my body which creates a ‘You’(The letter ‘UUUU’) shape with my dick. The belt still located on the middle of my shaft is sitting at the bottom of the (Letter you ‘UUUU’. Obviously I’m holding some weight up but a big proportion of the weight is hanging down on my shaft which should be stretching the cord.

Sorry it was unclear before maybe because thunders auto corrects changing the letter ‘uuuuuu’ to say ‘you’. Just try and look at the shape of that letter. ;)

Also I hope this goes well for you and take it easy, I’d like to see more people trying this out to see how successful it really is. As far as I’m concerned with the extra weight it’s a more extreme form of V/A Stretching.

OK I see what you mean by “U” shape. I’m gonna keep doing it my way, I feel more tension on the cord instead of elsewhere by not making the “U” and it doesn’t require as much weight.

Do you hold your dick out straight with your hand? Before you said ”and get something to hold it in place. Lol I just picture some tall wooden stick with a hand on it. If you found anything to hold it up let me know ;) I’m sick of holding it up, on the plus side I’m getting stronger.

I just tried holding it out straight too and with 20lbs it’s impossible, when the weight goes on it creates a considerable ‘you’ shape before I even manoeuvre my hand.

Yeah I just use my hand. Even with 5lb it bends in a little bit but I still think that’s better than the “U”.

Bumpity bump. I would like some more user data, hopefully some of the new guys will add their data.

I have a really thick cord and I think its probably what is holding me back. But Im not really sure how to answer this poll because I just didn’t know my penis well enough when I first started to do PE.

That’s okay dlm3, for the actual purposes of this thread, if you have it now then it’s fine for you to select either option 1 or 2.

I created this poll to test the hypothesis that everyone actually does have the tissue we feel as a dorsal cord, and it is merely that for some individuals it is shorter or possibly of a more condensed nature, than for others. By this theory I was thinking that there is a spectrum of ‘lengths’ which the human male population exhibits and that anyone who increases the length of their penis will be more likely to experience the cord.

So if you don’t feel it, I think the more you increase your length, the more likely you will eventually feel it, but for some, it will take more lengthening than is possible through PE to be able to feel it, and so will never feel it. Not sure how clear that is!

Hey Tweaking. I’m not sure whether this helps but I felt I related best to a fourth option (not in the poll). So I did not have this hassle before I got into PE. Happened only after I started PEing but the chord/fascia developed not so much from length gains as it did from girth workout (clamping). As I gained slight girth, the chord got furiously strong impeding my length as well as girth growth. Hope this helps.

Hang with real heavy weights and then tap into the fatigue by using less weight but repetitive sets that take advantage of the weaken tissue state. Even that “steel cord” can get fatigue.
