Hanging with no rest days

Just talked with Dino9X7 about this and he gave me his opinion but I’d like to hear what you guys think. Maybe I’ll have some knowledge bestowed upon me that’ll bring me to resolution on this issue. If manually stretching 7 days a week with no rest days isn’t advised, why is it ok to hang 7 days with no rest days? SOmething going on here I dont see?

Up until the last week or so, I was hanging 5 on 2 off and I found that all I was doing was reaching a very nice level of fatigue by the end of my hanging week where I could no longer use anywhere near my max weight, take two days off, my ligs would recover, and then I would start the whole process over again.

I was going round in circles and getting no where!

Now I just try to keep on hanging in a fatigued state without any breaks. Having said that, I had one real shitty day where nothing was going right and I really didn’t feel up to it, so I only did one (short) set and then got back into it the next day.

I felt much better after that little break.

So, I guess that the moral of the story is hang straight though with no rest days, BUT listen to your body and take one when needed.

Understood. Thanks alot Andrew.

Alrdy,

First, I don’t know about manual stretching and others recommendation for rest days. But why would any penis be on some type of arbitrary schedule for optimum ‘healing for gains’? Traction provides gains. Healing makes the tissues stronger. You can also heal while further stressing your tissues. You have to decide what your optimum schedule might be.

For hanging or stretching, I think you should go for as long as you possibly can, spending as much time in a traction state, until you feel you are reaching the point of injury. Then, take a day or so off to move back from the point of injury.

I think you will find gains much easier if you can stay in a fatigued state as much as possible.

Andrew had a good answer. Again.
