I think I've quit gaining, and I think I know why.

I know gains come slowly so it’s hard to pin point when they have ceased; but I believe I’ve hit a wall. I think I know why as well.

It seems to me that I can’t get enough force to pull my penis in the direction it needs; strait out. With my hand pulling in this direction, I can’t get near enough force; I know my penis is conditioned to take much more force than that.

It seems the Captn’s Wench was what I needed, but I have been experiencing complications such as: the tip of my head getting massively discolored, a red ring just behind the circumcision scar, and my dick goes ice cold after a couple minutes. I’ve experimented with the tightness of the clamp, and it seems that if I can avoid the above problems I end up the the skin pulling over my head because it’s just not tight enough.

I’m not necessarily looking for a Wench solution; but I’m not opposed to the idea. Maybe I should try lighter drawn out traction pulls, but it just seems as though the penis will not respond that way; must just be in my head.

I’m up for any ideas.

Read the article in my signature discussing PE. It should talk about decon breaks, that you might be interested in reading about.

There’s definitely a learning curve associated with clamp based hangers. How loose is your skin? Although I am cut, my skin is loose and I can get a great pull on the ligs even though my skin is around my glans. Is it possible that you are leaving too much blood in your dick when you are hanging? Try to get completely 100% flaccid, and then squeeze all the blood out of the tip of your dick before you clamp down on it. I was getting a fair amount of discoloration/coldness myself until I put some silicone in my wrap, that fixed everything! Might not have enough room to do that with the wench though. Anyways, good luck.

Also, I use a bib hanger, so things could be different.

I think you’ve hitted a wall because you have build it. Pulling with too much force you made your penis way stronger. You should not raise up force, but time. Many vets believe that time under tension is the major factor, when you want length gains.

Take a decon break form stretching/hanging: do only jelqs for three months. Then restart with length-focused exercises, raising time under tension slowly and gradually.

Tim under tension; I will try this for a while before I take a decon break. I just can’t bring myself to that right now; I just don’t want to quit. Maybe the less forceful but longer stretches will serve as some sort of slow decon.

From my own experience, I would really suggest you to take the decon break as fast as you can. You’re going to be amazed at how easily you will recover, and probably get some more gains.

Yeah, if you keep going, you’re only digging yourself a deeper hole.

By taking a decon, you will be able to regain whatever you lose (if any), and most likely surpass your previous size.

I’ve been doing my routine since October of 07; how long of a decon would you bros’ suggest?

Did you read the article I suggested? If I recall, it says 6 weeks.

It’s going to be hard.

Read the article, you should learn something and give you the self control to stop.
