Uncut4Big, I’m glad that you’ve experimented with constant heat. I had not thought about trying to find constant heat while stretching, jelqing, or hanging. I have always noticed how the tissues of my penis and scrotum were much more puffy and pliable when warmed well. I started using a warm wet compress (bathtub faucet) as advised by the Cartham method.
Also, some guys in the pumpers forum started a thread about using a heating pad while pumping. They suggested wrapping it around the cylinder. Do you think that a heating pad could provide enough heat to the ligs while hanging? Do they put out enough warmth, or do the heating lamps have them beat. I had been keeping that info about pumping with a heat pad in the back of my mind. I was planning to try it when I started working on girth again someday. I do think that using constant heat while stretching/hanging may speed gains in length also.
Heat makes plastic, rubbermade products, skin, and muscles more flexible. Keeping heat on the ligs/tunica for 15-20 minutes of a hanging session may keep them at their most flexible state. Heck appying heat to a nut that is stuck on a bolt makes it even easier to take it off. Applying heat to metal causes it to expand. Metal is one of the most inflexible materials known to man. Also cooling it causes it to contract. Glass even reacts the same way. I got to of my mothers glass cups stuck together when I was a kid. I read about a simple little science experiment in a book. I then stuck a really cold chilled glass inside of a warmed one just as a person stacks cups one in another. They became stuck together in just a minute or so as both glasses returned to room temperature. So, why PE at room temperature. Our ligs are surely not as tough as glass. Even the ropes that we use to rope calves with are much more flexible and soft in the heat of summer.
Those a just a few examples supporting your idea. Most every material except the ones that are flamable expand or become more flexible with the application of heat.
The constant application of heat may speed gains for some or help break the ice for others.
