Clever Setup for Straight Out Hanging

I think that hanging is a good way to gain length. The problem, for me, is that it sucks up lots of time. It is hard to do anything else when hanging.

So I found a way to solve that. I hang while I am working at my desk. Take a look at the attached drawing.

I took a medium sized screw hook and screwed it into the underside of my wood desktop. Then I tied a cord around my weight plates, ran the cord through a pulley, and tied a loop with a big knot on the other end. The pulley I chose has a metal loop on one end. If you look up “small pulley images” in your search engine, you’ll see what I’m talking about.

Attach the pulley to the hook under your desk. Sit down at your computer, attach the loop on the cord to your hanger, and you’re in business. You can work at your desk and hang at the same time.

You can get the hook and the pulley at your local hardware store. Cost should be around $5.

What clever setup do you use to make hanging easier?

Smart thinking I like that . 😀

U better pray there is never a fire alarm. But clever setup

Very clever set up Ernie! Necessity is the mother of invention! We have a Cable Weight Stand that utilizes the same principle… with a cable and a stand that has a pulley roller. Attached are some photos…. I’m using it with a set of sweat pants on and my penis exposed through the “fly” on my pants. This system is available on our website with additional photos. It comes with the stand, a double clasp hook and a 5’ft long cable that has a loop at each end. The stand does require a minimum amount of assembly. It has adjustment so that you can position the roller to be the same height as the chair you’re seated in. I use mine when I want to get a hang in while watching a ball game or movie.

Awsome, when I have more privacy and don’t move as frequently will get me one.

I installed an anchor hook in the ceiling and hang it up through the block.
