I am new to this forum but I have been into PE for many years.
You can not adjust an ADS every two or three days, if this were the case everybody woud be a porn star in few weeks.
The concept is:
Keep it to a tension level wich does not cause you a real discomfort, then you will be able to maintain an all day stretch (ADS) and increase the extension of the ADS (one single screw round per week could be right), and you could grow one inch or so in about a twelve month time span.
Hanging may be faster (I am not sure) but you need many hours per day dedicated to that job only and a lot of privacy. An ADS is slower, but you can almost forget you are wearing it and nobody sees it.
Some people hang morning and evening and use ADS in the meantime, which is supposed to work even more.
Take a week or so brake and wen your penis is not sore any longer, start again nice and easy.
PE is a pleasure, when you feel pain or discomfort stop, wait and restart slower: rush will not make yor penis grow.
Hope this may help
