While hanging up to 15 lbs your unit have become strong. It needs to recover and de-align cells.But the your starting point will depends mainly on your Mpa threshold = flaccid girth.
It might sound like a cooler but it’s not. This method is working. The only thing you need to do is doing repeatable regimen, don’t overwork your unit (make it strong).
You were about right..
I found the answer in longerstretch’s post from his thread, 3 months (well maybe 2 months which DLD did when switching to his SRT method). Below for your reference to those who wants to switch from heavy weight to FIR light weight method.
“.So if you’ve been stalled for 6 months let’s say, or you’ve never taken a decon or you’re hanging over 20 lbs, or you don’t think you can increase your time investment and are going balls to the walls each routine but not seeing results; take at least 3 months off.”
“.I stalled after the 1st 12 months and gaining 0.5 inch. Practiced manual PE RELIGIOUSLY FOR 2 FUCKING YEARS with 0 gains. What’s the definition of insanity again? I took 3 months off and started vacuum hanging and gained 1 inch in 6 months with light weights though a big time investment. Still didn’t have a clue. Started and stopped so many times I lost count. 1 thing is clear I made my best and quickest gains after a decon. I just reached inch #3 after taking 18 to 20 months off though unplanned I’m making great progress. DLD before coming up with SRT took 2 months off. If you go looking you’ll find this truth with many many others.”
Well I have been hanging heavy for 2 months only, so I am going to go for 2 months decon. Faccckkkk meeee! That’s going to be hard to wait.
