Tension level

Hello,

I’m doing extending for almost two months or 250h and I have gained 0.2”, which isn’t good, but it’s not bad at all.My tension level is 1kg or 2 pounds.My question to you is whether I should or not increase the tension?

0.20” over 250 hours will give you an inch, that’s obviously a linear calc. If that’s the case you are doing quite well. You are gaining well at 1kg, you can experiment with kicking it up a notch, but if it’s too uncomfortable stay where you are at because the gains are coming. Eventually as you continue to grow you will find that the rod length you are using is no longer long enough to provide you the 1kg of tension that you are gaining at, so you will need to increase the length of the bars on the extender.

Well done on your gains, 0.20” over 250 hours is nothing to sneeze at!

Bytheway I’m not using extender.I have created homemade extender/hanger which is incredible.I have tied a 1 liter bottle with a rope and the other end of the rope is tied to my homemade extender/hanger.

Before I had some vacuum extender, but the glans slipped off.

Gotcha. Your gains rate is good, I would hold that tension until gains begin to taper off.
