And whether that was achieved with or without a silicone glans cap. Weight-equivalent being measured by using some kitchen scales and pressing down the extender base onto the scales up to your normal point of tension…Reason for asking is that I’ve bought an extender in preparation for my next cycle. I’ve just come off a Bib hanging cycle (using Xeno’s modified Bib hanger) and I’ll wait to measure, but if I find there were gains from that then I might repeat and add an extender for a few hours extra per day (but at lower tension, say like what Penimaster suggest as a max around 1.1kg). If I didn’t find any gains then I think I’ll go for an extender-only cycle next time, in which case it would be good to know what longer term traction tension I should aim for - would want to keep it as stretched as I can but also in a sustainable way. I suppose it’s a matter of experimentation (too much = blistering, so heal and reduce) but would be good to know experience from others on here.
Thanks.
I am uncut and can use the extender for long periods of time (6+ hrs) with 1 5 min break per hour. I find that comfort and circulation is the limiting factor.
Here are some things that work for me. It may work for you.
1. I leave my foreskin unretracted. There is little to no reason for me to pull back the skin. If you are like me and have a glans larger than the shaft, you will have less slippage.
2. For comfort, use a 3 inch silicone sleeve from the base of the penis to behind the head.(get the silicone sleeve that has one thick end that can be used to help keep the noose behind the head). Use a thin piece of foam cushion on top of the silicone sleeve for add plushness. (You will have less circulation loss)
3. If you use a strap-style noose, put the foam over that like you would with the noose.
4. Find out what your maximum BPSFL is and adjust the bar accordingly.
5. I use the maximum tension all the time. This allows me to not worry about the exact amount of traction, but how long I am at maximum stretch for.
6. I like to stretch on the prone position with extender sandwiched between me and the carpet. This keeps the extender from falling off at max stretch.
I hope at least one of these tips work.
