Effects of Hanging on Length and Girth?

NotEnough, voodoochildtx,

Holy shit, lets see if I can get through this. If I miss something, please ask again.

>mustard analogy<

Yes, that would be roughly the same physics. Perhaps better would be a new rope. The loops in the rope would be like the elastin fibers being stretched out under a stress. Then, as more tension is applied, the rope is stretched. Weak bonds or fibers in the rope break or give way. Stronger bonds or fibers take hold. More tension is applied. Some progressively stronger bonds or fibers break. On and on until only the very strongest fibers remain, holding the entire load. What is the result? The rope is much longer. Unless of course, too much tension is applied, the rope breaks (mass fiber failure), and you end up with two short ropes. lol.

The difference between a rope and penis is, the penis has the inate ability to repair the broken bonds. The consequence of the repair is a stronger penis. As these bonds are repaired, more and more fibers are holding against the stresses in harmony. Therefore, it takes a progressively greater amount of stress to break the next strongest bonds. I think I put an example in the “healing and an apology thread about the amounts of weights and the load capacity of each fiber.

>In that same thought, the individual connective tissue strands would be slowly stretching and some breaking and as that happens the other tissues would bear slightly more load and stretch further and eventually fail one by one (or maybe a few at a time) according to the load vs. the strength of the tissue bearing the load vs. time under load. <

Well said.

>I see what you mean about the wrapping and its swelling effect only on the uncovered area. You mentioned that the girth gains from hanging were on the first third of your length and that doing Uli’s created girth gains on the rest. You also said that you have both more mass and it swells more than pre-PE. Is the 2nd third the same general structure of tissue or does it grow and shrink more than the 1st third? <

The flaccid length and girth ‘appears’ to be the same. However, when I palpate the shaft, the base is noticeably more substantial. IOW, it feels more dense, or heavier. Toward the head, it seems lighter. When erect, I can tell no difference in the areas. The blood and resulting pressure from the blood eliminate the difference. Good question. Never been asked that before.

>BTW, I bought 10#, 5# and 2.5# weight plates. I didn’t see any 1 pound weights. Is a 2.5# jump TOO much at a time?<

Only you can answer that question. Just try it and see. Be ready to take off the added weight if it does not feel right.

>How do you suggest attaching the plates to the hanger? I realize there is a strap attached to the hanger but I doubt you suggest using it alone? Or, maybe you do?<

I always used a piece of rope or wire looped through the hole in the plate and tied. If you use rope it will fray over time.

>Bib, just to clarify in my mind…when people say you hung 9 hrs per day is that total time (including rest) or is it actual hang time<

I hung from 7:30 am till 4:30 pm five days per week. 20 minutes on and 10 off. Now understand, while I was fairly consistant, some days I might start at 7:00 or 8:00. Might end at 3:00. Some sets were 15 minutes and some 25 (one 45). Also, usually in the middle of the day, I would lightly milk for a good while; also, at the end of the day. Sometimes I had business I had to take care of and did not hang.

Many days I would hang at least a couple of sets at night while watching TV when everyone had gone to bed. I did it in an easy chair with the weight through the hole between the seat and footrest. BTW, You can just put a book on the seat for the hanger to rest on. Then, I would have a quilt or comforter over my lower half.

I kept up with start times on a post-it at my desk. Usually, I would have between 11 and 15 sets at the end of the day. I really don’t have an idea of the average.

>With rest time that would be 18 sets per day 5 days a week or 90 sets per week. Even at 1/2 of that it would take 45 sets per week or 180 sets to gain 1/4 inch (provided you are hanging properly and not just going through the motions). Is my logic reasonable or am I missing something? <

Nope, you are correct. Others have reported much better gain per hour worked than what I experienced. That is one reason I say I overdid the work. However, since I was working at my desk while PEing, it was no big loss of time for me.

Of course, others have had less gain per hour worked. It is good that you realize it is not just the time, but also the quality of the work. I would say the best measure is the amount of time while hanging in a fatigued state.

>Also a question if you don’t mind. What kind of flaccid gains did you see in length? Were they in line with your erect gains or did they come before erect gains? <

Of course, flaccid lengths and gains is a tough thing to quantify. But since my flaccid length prePE was almost nonexistant (usually around one inch or so), anything was a plus. Now, I am between five and seven inches. Usually about six I guess. As I write this, I am seven. I would say I still get about the same increase with an erection that I did prePE. I have a lot of elastin fiber and it still functions very well after PE.

I did not keep up with normal flaccid lengths while PEing. Only stretched flaccid lengths. My SFL shot up after starting. As I PEed, it would usually be between 1.5 and 2 inches longer than my erect length. As my erect length grew, so did the SFL. Now, it is about .75 inches longer than my erect length.

Ok I’m going to throw something out there regarding girth gains while hanging; unfortunately I don’t have enough time in using this technique to affirm it but here goes.

And before I summarize this method be aware I’ve been hanging for 7 monthes with a one set max between 24 - 25 pounds.

Recently I wrapped a pretty good woody, and instead of letting it fully subside before tightening the hange,r when It( my dick) was say 30-40 percent off, I tightened down the hanger with the edge of the hangerwithin an inch of where my dick hits my body.

Then using 17.5# (70% of my max) VERY SLOWLY lowered and released the weight from my hand. So there i am now doing a Uli and hanging at the same time. I felt the pull on my ligs( hanging) and also the pressure on the upper 1/3 of my pecker(Uli).

So Idid a few sets like this, each 20-30 minutes with a little break by lifting the weigh when I needed it.

Following removing the bib hanger with the wrap still in place I did a few minutes of uli’s starting at the base and working up the shaft.

When I finally unwraped my dick it looked like it was from another planet,

girth was .5/.6inches bigger than my all time best just below the gland and .3/.4 inches bigger at mid shaft. While lenght was consistant with typical hanging routine.

I don’t know what the short term, mid term, and long term results of this method of hanging will be but it sure has surprised me so far.

Also as I mentioned this is a very risky technique and not for everyone

hell it may not be for anyone.

ledzep,

That is interesting. The most I could ever do with an Uli was ten pounds. That is as high as I ever tried. That was too intense for me, and finally I decided that just the hanger alone or the Uli thing alone was sufficient. This is when I was only going for girth in the upper shaft. No length.

If this works on a consistant basis, I can see it giving head and upper shaft gains at the same time you are working on length. Very efficient. But you need to monitor the condition very carefully.

The blood engorgement keeps the hanger from sliding down. So the entire poundage is relayed to the lateral bonds of the head and upper shaft.

Please keep us up to date on how it works,

Bigger

bib:

the way I have my weights setup 17.5# is secured by several wraps of a leather belt and a real pain in the ass to remove.

When I need more weight I slide the belt through the additional plates and hang and vise versa when I go down in weight.

So I probably wouldn’t have used that much weight unless it was already setup. And like most things that work well this wasn’t my intention prior to stumbling across this method.

I actually did a set today at 20 pounds for 15 minutes.

Anyway once I started the hanging process while the pressure was intense it was managable. As I mentioned instead of quiting the set what i did was take a mini break (30-60 seconds) by lifting the weight with my hand and feeling things “stabilize” somewhat before continuing.

Here’s what I’m thinking on this issue:

The tightness of the hanger is as much the reason for the hanger not slipping as the engourement, consequently as my erection subsides all the blood is channeled in the upper 1/3 of the penis.

One thing I didn’t mention earlier was I have never seen the head of my dick remotely close to the size it gets after a set and I’ve had that “electric” feeling for the better part of the day.

There’s a few things to consider here:

The issue of doing uli’s and hanging at the same time may not be practical both from a recovery standpoint as well as the primarly goal of hanging to lenghten the penis. It’s like you said earlier it appears easier to lenghten a thinner penis than a thicker one. Then when you get to the point your content with length start working on girth.

Because the recovery time for girth work is greater than the recovery time for hanging relatively speaking it may be counter productive to do this exercise on a routine basis verses maybe twice a week.

Yeah, the monitoring issue is key, so far in 1.4 years I’ve been injury free and pray that this continues.

Based on what I’ve read, this may be unchartered waters so to speak.

Zep, I am “almost” a hanger as I have ordered my BH but it will be next week or so before I have it. In preparation I asked how to secure the weight plates and suggestions such as a piece of rope or wire were made. Today I took coat hangers and looped one through each plate and wrapped it back around itself with pliers. The result is a wire “loop” aproximately 5” away from the plate. This loop should be easy to attached to the BH. This creates a way to hang each plate individually and in combinations. It will allow quick increases and decreases. Don’t know if this will help or not but thought I would share.

notenough:

Good luck with your hanging, and let me know if you have any questions as you go.

Bib , I’m a “hang beginner” ,

I have just start a hanging session with 5 lbs weight for 2 time 20 min for day and I want to know some info :

What is general penis sensation after a good hanging session ?I want to know what are the “good” feelings MUST I feel after (like stress on lig and shaft …?)

When I hang I notice I can practice some PC muscle contraction like my penis can “pull up” weight (just with 5 lbs)! Can I doing this ?Is weight is too light ?

Just After a hanging session can I use some milking exercice or must I let my penis recuparate and doing jelq another day ?

yazid,

>What is general penis sensation after a good hanging session ?I want to know what are the “good” feelings MUST I feel after (like stress on lig and shaft …?)<

What a heck of a question. After a GOOD session, I guess my best description would be fatigue. Actual tiredness, soreness, etc. The shaft would be somewhat sensitive to the touch, but not too bad. When stretching my penis, the ligs would bark a little, but once again, not too much. I would not want to go have sex immediately after. No pain whatsoever. A bad session would be if I felt nothing at all. Either numbness, or no soreness. Get it?

>When I hang I notice I can practice some PC muscle contraction like my penis can “pull up” weight (just with 5 lbs)! Can I doing this ?Is weight is too light ?<

I used to do kegals while hanging all the time. Up to about twenty pounds, I could make the weight jump. At your stage, 5 lbs is fine. Making the weight jump with five lbs does not mean anything concerning whether it is too light or heavy. How do you feel after the work?

>Just After a hanging session can I use some milking exercice or must I let my penis recuparate and doing jelq another day ? <

I always milked in between sets a little to restore circulation, and then maybe twenty to thirty minutes at the end of the session to restore circulation and make sure everything was working properly.

Thank you Bib for your answer !
I want to know what is limit time for hanging ( I use a 20 min hanging) and how we can fix a limit time for hanging with the state of penis I guess ?(head discoloration or anything else …?)
I have read the other topic and I notice that you have hanging for intense session with long time hang period , are you having some skin tension problem or head discoloration …?
What method can I use for not having that problem ‘cause I notice it is very difficult to add weight without a good grip with the hanger device and so I must compress a lot the shaft and having some discoloraton head (not too dangerous but I ‘ve just notice that : after , the head return normal with some relax exercice ) I use a sort of AFB hanger that I made .

With your experience on hanging and your fantastic result I want to know where must I fix the hanger on the shaft ( middle , base, near the head …?) for having a maximum effect on the shaft and lig and so all the penis. Is there a specific area on the shaft for that ?

I think my penis react more easily with some girth exercice like powerjelquing or milking …
But now I want to concentrate on the lenght and so I want to “attack” him ‘cause it doesn’t customer with the hanging so it react very well in the begining (now).
The ligs and fibre are stress and I want to know how many time I must let them recuperate !
In the begining , have you have some recuperate time or not ?
What is the effect if we stress too much penis ?

OK, this is just my opinion. I don’t want to look like I’m overriding Bigger here at all. So I’ll just state they physical facts as I know them.

If you make the weight jump or hop with PC contractions, you are in essence doing what is called dynamic stretching of the lig. The PC muscle is flexing, but the lig is the connecting tissue between that muscle and the weight, so it bears the stress. Dynamic stretching is the more dangerous of the stretching styles. Not that you *will* get injured, but it does increase the likelihood.

Now if you do a PC contraction slowly and (here’s the key) release the weight slowly, then you are not doing dynamic stretching and it’s much safer. Also, it’s actually a more effective muscle building move since it is more akin to what you’d want to do with a bicep curl or something along those lines. The slow squeeze and slow release is proper form and truly stresses the negative motion.

Personally, that’s what I’d do and therefore I’d suggest it, but to each their own. Just wanted to shed light on it from a different angle.

All right ,

What is likelihood ? negative motion ?

I practice the kegel with 5 lbs hang , it is light I think ‘cause I can feel I can control this weight with kegel when I hang ! (Say me if I’m wrong !)

Do you think practice kegel with lighter weight with your tech (slow contraction) is more effective than hanging some heavy and dangerous weight without kegel ? What is the more effective for lenght ?

What is the key angle for isolate the shaft and ligs in hang and so the body position for that ? ‘cause I notice there is some position who stress too more my up skin in the base of my penis !

likelihood = a good chance or possibility for something to happen

negative - in this case means the downward control of the weight. Letting it go back down as you relax (slowly) your PC muscle. Get it?

I think Bigger has pointed out that the kegel exercise has got nothing to do with lengthening your penis while hanging. The bonus effect is that if you kegel while you hang your PC muscles get the challenge of actually lifting a weight. Our normal PC exercises don’t use weights but just use muscle contraction. Assuming you handle the weight safely, it could be a totally superior way to exercise your PC (but I haven’t tried it yet, so I can’t say for sure).

I’ll let Bigger talk about the stress of skin vs. ligs, because I’ve never had any skin stress to speak of..

yazid,

>I want to know what is limit time for hanging ( I use a 20 min hanging) and how we can fix a limit time for hanging with the state of penis I guess ?(head discoloration or anything else …?)<

I don’t know what this means.

>I have read the other topic and I notice that you have hanging for intense session with long time hang period , are you having some skin tension problem or head discoloration …?<

I did when I hung. Not too much skin problems, but some discoloration.

>What method can I use for not having that problem ‘cause I notice it is very difficult to add weight without a good grip with the hanger device and so I must compress a lot the shaft and having some discoloraton head (not too dangerous but I ‘ve just notice that : after , the head return normal with some relax exercice ) I use a sort of AFB hanger that I made .<

Make sure there is not too much blood in the head before you begin.

>With your experience on hanging and your fantastic result I want to know where must I fix the hanger on the shaft ( middle , base, near the head …?) for having a maximum effect on the shaft and lig and so all the penis. Is there a specific area on the shaft for that ?<

Nearer the base tends to stretch more skin. Nearer the head tends to stretch the tunica and ligs.

>The ligs and fibre are stress and I want to know how many time I must let them recuperate ! In the begining , have you have some recuperate time or not ? <

I essentially did a 5/2 routine the entire time I PEed. Sometimes a little hanging during the 2.

>What is the effect if we stress too much penis ? <

You may become injured.

Buster,

There is one problem with the thought of the type of stretch while doing kegals. The connective tissue affected during the kegal while hanging is not the susp or fund ligs. It is the connective tissue which attached to the PC which would be affected by the kegals. Whole different area.

The only thing which might affect the susp and fund ligs is to remove a little stress from them while doing the actual kegal.

Bigger

For the ‘limit time on hanging ’ I want to say what is the time of a hang session ( like now I hang for 20 min with 5 lbs) but for you what is a general during for a hang session ?

What is your method for not having skin stress too much ?

What is a 5/2 routine ?

So I must to add hang near the head for effective effect of stretching all the shaft and not on the base ?

What is the best angle hang for the lenght ?

Hey Yazid

Have you read the older posts here in the Hanger Forum?? Have you checked out the free info on Bib’s site?? Lots of good info there.

20 minute hang sessions, you may be tempted to go longer, but don’t. 20 minutes seems to be the “standard” maximum with any kind of PE. You need to restore the blood flow every 20 minutes.

You have to stretch the skin somewhat, it is a limiting factor also. If you are getting way too much skin stretch, work on your wrapping and hanger attachment. Make sure it isn’t slipping.

Five days on and two days off. 5/2 :D

Yes, you need to attach the hanger near the head in order to stretch as much of the shaft as possible. NOT so close to the head that it causes injury though.

BTC, check the FAQ for a description of this angle.
