Hanging with FIRe

Think I’d rather be Dr Frankenstein than stick a thermocouple up my urethra when clamped!

I’ve clamped with a 9mm penis plug inserted. I definitely knew the plug was there, but didn’t hurt. You’d probably never notice your teeny little thermocuple.

I’m pumping for length with girth gains as a nice side benefit.

Ballpark get it guys! 😆 good one Andy

😂 Remember I have a precious urethra. Might give it a go at some point

In the load calculator, do we plug-in 0.17 MPA to find the starting point and 0.5 MPA for the max weight we need to reach each session?

My flaccid circumference under gland is 120mm. So that gives me

0.17 MPA > 7.5 lbs
0.5 MPA > 21.9 lbs

Can someone who did this clarify/confirm these numbers I need to plug-in and if I am calculating currently please?

Much appreciated, thank you.

Yo 5.5 I was wondering I know you were targeting the tunica mainly. I’ve wondered the has your erection angle changed at all since only doing SD? I never seen you mention trying a BTC angle

My understanding:

0.1 mpa is the starting point for adding heat and no heat should be applied below this.
0.17 mpa is the max and is the start of the elastic region and no heat should be applied above this and should try not to apply weight above this. I think his comment was that it is ineffective to work above this point.

0.5 mpa is the start of the plastic region

See post #22:
The characteristics of the tunica albuginea revisited

Hey Guys,

How long do you leave time inbetween the several cold and warm hanging sets?

Thanks a lot in advance!

According to 5.5 posts he would be just getting some coffee didn’t seem like there was a need for rest in between sets. Rest in between sets seems more important for compression hanging to restore blood flow

Those are not sets. It’s one continuous 60-90 minute session.
You just make the ‘change’ at those times. Adding weight or starting/ending heat.

In cycle #1 I did do two one sets with a small 5 minute break between them. I finally figured out that that multiple sets were not required.

Interesting.

From my understanding you were supposed to be at the ideal therapeutic temperature just before reaching 0.1 mpa low-end value and then maintain that therapeutic temperature until you reach the 0.17 mpa high-end value and then remove the heat and before adding the 20-25% weight increase for "cooldown."

And of course we should be trying to achieve results at weights lower than the 0.1 and 0.17 mpa values before getting that high.

Maybe 5.5 or ScienceGuy or someone else who has a clear understanding can chime in.

I also would like to hear what those guys have to say on the subject and how they put it into practical application.

Here is what Kyrpa said and which I based my comment on. From “characteristics of the …” post #77

“So I think there is no rationale for the imperative heat use from 0 to 0.10 MPa. You can see what it means in kgs in your case using the calculator. Thereafter IMO the heat is imperative. I suggest not to go beyond without heat.

The early stages of the transitional region are the latest without heat as having been the core of the protocol I introduced from the beginning.”

But the previous sentence may be where you are basing your comment:

“Within the stage of hitting the inflection point, you should be already under the heat.”

Just wondering boy’s does anyone know how to wrap so your glans doesn’t get all puffed up. After going halfway through a session my urethra usually looks like the lips of a blow fish :(

I use micro pore tape.
