Is more time hanging always better with hanging?

Hello all,

Consensus or at least old school theory in hanging seems to maintain that the more sets you can hang, the better, with hanging.

Is that still true?

Thanks.

Most definitely. The more hanging time the more micro trauma, but this is where trouble can crop up because the more likely your going to experience turtling. So the thing you have to have handy is some form of ADS to keep things stretched out after your workout otherwise the bodies defence systems are going to go into high gear to repair that micro damage and the end result of that will be toughening and shortening back to what the body believes it should be. When you utilize an ADS the healing system will adapt to the NEW normal.

Hey Monty.

What was your routine in the first year that you gained over 2” in length?

Do you only hang? Also it seems you believe you should keep the penis elongated by an ads to ensure it doesn’t heal retracted. Can you say you account for this to your own gains?

Keep in mind that I am old school and unaware of potential recent breakthroughs at Thunders orbital PE laboratory.

More hanging over all is better than less hanging. If you normally hang 2 hours a day during the week then suddenly attempt to hang 18 hours on Sunday it is probably a bad thing.

Iamaru. I want to start hanging as some people have amounted to decent gains from it. Usually they say they hang all day every day. I think one I read was a user called zelktoid.

I have been PEing for almost 5 months and think I am near to be conditioned. Would I have to start off with 3 20 mins sets or could I go longer if I have the time to spare.

Not sure of any good routines for people who have time on their hands.

Correction his name is jelktoid

My routine was to wear my rings daily, all day. I managed upwards of 15 hours a day. I would do SO hanging with a Bungee was well as angle stretching OTL and SU with angles to match. My routine would allow for 2 to 3 sets of 20 minute each as daily as possible but life’s interruptions I might have 2 and sometimes 3 days with no hanging what so ever. Even so my data showed that the amount of gain per set remained the same month after month. This I attribute to the rings keeping the ligs stretched at all times. Fulcrums were added into my routine as gains began to slow down. They allowed me to continue gaining without having to increase weight or in my case stress level. I calibrated the stress of the Bungee in pounds so I could keep track of stress levels.

Most to all of my gains came from hanging. The tipping point for me was 10/week in the hanger; or, 15 hours invested. I do think that most guys that try and get by with an hour a day are probably wasting their time. And I also think that more consistent time in the hanger yields more results.

If you have good self monitoring skills and the time/privacy to invest in hanging it is a great way to go. . If you are running a business or doing homework in front of your computer anyway you can effectively hang in “zero time” by multi tasking.

Okay so do you have a routine to suggest for me? That you think will be well worth the time invested?

Thanks

Wrapping drawings Can’t hang if you can’t wrap. The slightest discomfort, snag, fold, of skin pinch in the wrap is magnified by "Oh Fuck!!?!" once the weights go on. It is kind of like how bad even a teeny piece of gravel or a single piece of pine needle in your sock feels when you try and walk. Learn to wrap. It is so important that until you know how to wrap you can’t learn to hang.

While you are learning to wrap read up on the minutia of hanging. Hanging 101

Most of my hanging was done with a BIB hanger. Read up on the specifics of using and adjusting what ever kind of hanger you intend to use. But the fundamentals of hanging don’t change. Aside from learning the particulars of the BIB everything I know about hanging I learned with an old school swim cap hanger from Tom’s old site.

Some guys benefit from having a hanging routine just like some guys benefit from keeping detailed workout logs. I never messed with that. Helping a friend with a start up and taking some online classes made for loong days alone in my office. I had a corner desk and a comfy office chair. I simply shifted my ass around constantly to stay comfortable. Back in the chair, hips on the edge, edge with my feet on the chair, edge with me feet on the desk; etc..

My schedule was free form as well. Anywhere from 3 twenty minute sets in a day to 12. And things would come up often enough that I didn’t schedule days off either. I simply hung unless I couldn’t. That meant 1-2 days off per week. On those few occasions where something didn’t come up I would take a break after 10 days. Or I would only hang a single set/day for a few days after a week straight. Or whatever. Basically I just listened to my body and had excellent self monitoring skills.

The only other truism you really need is to start light and stay as light as possible whilst still generating gains.

Okay thanks for the information iamaru :) .

I will start off light and do a few sets and slowly increase but keep the same weight. Hopefully I can actually get some length gains so I can know that I am at least doing it right and my last 5 months weren’t wasted haha.

Thank you all for your opinions.

What I had in mind is the stuff that sparkyx and others have written about the smooth muscle and BPFSL contraction. I’m not sure what the most recent theory is, but I believe the general idea is to keep a tab of BPFSL measurements and when this measurement contracts, you reduce volume. Not necessarily days off, but active recovery. Ideally, I think you never push yourself so hard that your BPFSL contracts considerably.

I was in particular aware of this phenomenon when pumping. If I did too much work, even with higher pressures, I would not be able to reach the same length as the prior day(s).

What angles were you working with your Bib?

I’m doing SO. Any opinion on that angle?

I know Bib even strongly disrecommended it, even for tunica work, but Monty seems to prefer it and there’s another guy here who gains with it as well. I’ve gained with it in the past. I chose it because it seems most natural, easiest to implement and since I fear losing erection angle with SD/BTC.

Another question I suppose is does lig work reduce the erectile angle more than tunica work?

I believe Bib’s explanation was that a heavier/larger penis would naturally ‘hang’ lower due to mere physics, but I’m not sure if I believe that to be true.

Same here, if I do a couple sets a day it doesn’t do much, but when I get serious and hang 1 hr+ per day for a month, I usually gain during that month. I remember Bib posting that he believed there’s a point of greatly diminished returns on time at the upper limit too, 20 hours per week in the hanger if my memory is correct.

Reading back I can see that this entry below is rather redundant but nevertheless is appropriate for the discussion.

Everybody’s genetics are different. You might need an hour a day. I was doing an hour in 3- 20 minute sets. I tried to do that routine daily but life happens to us all and there were times when I had to skip 2 or 3 days at a time. But you see when that happened and then at the end of the month I was calculating my data I would find that the gains per session was always the same so the days off didn’t affect my progress. That’s the important part, Keep the gains going by whatever means. In my case the rings acted like a bridge to those skipped sessions. I’ve many months of data that I collected and correlated.

Bib’s assumption that a bigger, heavier unit will hang lower naturally shouldn’t be the case if your maintaining the basic structure of your unit. That’s the big reason I developed the SO hanging routine in the 1st place. It only stood to reason that if you pulling your penis down and/or BTC that your erection angle would change because your stretching the top portion of the erection structure. With SO hanging that doesn’t occur because you extending in the natural posture of an erection. Hence the erection angle would be maintained.
