Extender Help

How much pressure should I feel when I put on the extender?

I have a very basic, simple extender and I can not measure how much force I am using on extender, I just use my feeling, so I wanna know how much pressure should I use or how much is too much? Should I feel a little pressure? Or should I feel strong pulling or something between?

Your question is similar to asking how my food should taste when I eat it. I don’t mean to be provocative, but if you’re not feeling a good stretch that results in fatigue then your extender is not doing it’s job.
Many don’t understand the proper definition of fatigue either….

I got the idea

I’m new to this site I don’t know how to ask or answer, like, dislike etc

But anyway thanks for the reply

Do you have an extender that you are able to compress with your hand when you put it on and strap your penis onto it ? If so, they usually have 3 or 4 lines that mark out how much force that are beeing applied. The more lines that are visible, the less force is beeing applied.

Yes I have one of those but it has no line on it. I just go by guessing like every 8mm I think it’s like 600 grams. Or I turn the screws until I feel a good pressure and the rush of blood down there, then I measure the empty space on the bar! But I don’t really know how much pressure is that.

Was there an instruction on a piece of paper, booklet, cd that came with the extender that would explain it all ? If not, your guess is as good as mine.

No nothing!

I would recommend you to start with minimum force and push it harder over time. Give time (I would say a whole month or maybe two) for your penis to get used to the traction device.

Take a look at some threads, look for experienced guys who can help you develop a path from beginner to 10 hours/day with maximum force.

Don’t forget the resting days.

PE is a slow process and you want to avoid injuries.

Be safe.

You should use enough pressure to generate fatigue. However all the low traction China made extenders create so little amount of traction (max is 5 lbs) that unless you’re an absolute rookie newbie you can go to the max setting almost immediately.

FYI - most don’t guys don’t know how to properly define “fatigue” so I’ve attached my definition.

“Fatigue” doesn’t always accompany soreness. It’s more of a state of condition than a feel. Although you can have symptoms of soreness, but that depends on the level of your training, and the plateaus that you reach.

If you base everything on the feel you get from ligament soreness then you have not properly defined “fatigue”. Obviously as you progress into heavier more intense training you can feel the following symptoms……

#1 - Soreness at the base of your penis, since your ligament is attached to your pubic bone you should feel it more internally behind the fat pad.

#2 - Mild tenderness within your penis shaft. I wouldn’t classify this as soreness, but more like muscle or tissue awareness. Meaning if you massage or squeeze your penis you should feel like it’s been used or worked.

#3 - Soreness in you sphincter muscle. Occasionally as you graduate to heavier weight the initial sessions can manifest a soreness in your sphincter muscle. This means your body is reacting to the stress of the workload and tensing up. This is where you really need to learn to relax that pelvic floor muscle, and feel that stretch to it’s fullest.

#4 - A very loose and pliable flaccid penis. This is the condition you should experience after a good hang session. It’s also the time to take full advantage of this “fatigue” and do 10 - 15 minutes of very aggressive hand stretches. The hang work is what facilitates the “fatigue” and it’s where you’ll be able to stretch, twist and bend your penis beyond what you can normally do prior to a weight hanging session. It’s in this condition that you probably wouldn’t be able to achieve a 100% hard erection. This is FATIGUE!

It’s my experienced that erect length gains come from flaccid length gains. Your penis can be stretched to greater lengths while flaccid than while erect.
You’ll never hear anyone say that they have a 7” flaccid penis, but only a 6” erection. Over time the difference between your flaccid length and erect length will become less. For me if I had to put a percentage on it, it would be approximately 30%

If you are looking to target the ligament stretch more intensely without going to heavier weight, then use a Fulcrum bar as close to the base area as possible, all the way up to the point where you have to push your testicles backwards. Only do not exceed 15 minutes of Fulcrum hanging, as it will cut off circulation to a point. You can do sets of Fulcrums in between SD hanging.

Thanks for the guidance.
