Hanging

This is my routine———- Newbie to hanging just ordered my bib today!

Month 1 — 5 pounds — 5 days per week — 45 minutes per day

Month 2 — 7 pounds — 5 days per week — 45 minutes per day

Month 3 — 10 pounds — 5 days per week — 60 minutes per day

Month 4 — 12.5/15 pounds - 5/6 days per week — 60 minutes per day

Few questions

#1. What are gains I can expect from this?

#2. I have all the time I need is there a more advanced routine I can do for better gains?

#3. Whats better light weight for longer? Heavy weight? I searched about this stuff but just got more confused.

#4. What are best things to use to attach to hanger? What kind of weights and stuff?

Only experienced hangers post please! Or people that have gotten good gains thanks!

I’m not a veteran to hanging.

But I’ve done a lot of reading here. Granted there are many opinions about technique and such. And I’m prefacing this by saying I have no personal experience on this subject …

BUT

Your rountine is a little confusing to me.

It looks as though you are starting off conservatively with both time and weight. From the bulk of the reading I’ve done, that’s a good idea.

I’d suggest increasing time rather than weight as a first priority. I’m assuming, since you are using a Bib, that the 45 minutes is actually three 15 minute sets, with 5 minute breaks in between for blood-flow and circulation.

Why not extend to 60 minutes with 5 lbs in month 2? And keep extending the time until you hit two hours.

Many experienced guys here recommend going up in weight only after the gains stop.

The central conceit of your plan is fine: low weights to begin with and incremental increases.

I just think if you focus on raising the weight rather than time spent you risk toughening your guy up to the point where it won’t respond well regardless of weight. I think the ramp of time has jumps which are too quick and therefore risks injury.

I’d start with 2.5 lbs and see it how it goes for an hour or more and work the time angle more so than the load.

I also see no mention of any ADS use inbetween hanging sessions or which day or days you are completely PE free. That’s important to consider.

Search out IPR and give some of those threads a read. It may help you form a more comprehensive strategy.

Perhaps some of the more experienced hangers here could contribute?

Mr. Happy’s advice is sound.

We see hundreds of gainers and hundreds of non-gainers who follow every imaginable hanging protocol. The hardest part, by far, is simply keeping with any program. Give yourself a few months before you decide that you need to change your program dramatically.

You can plan all you want, but dont expect anything, just be consistent. Get a routine down, get your hanging technique solid, and put in the time.

#1. What are gains I can expect from this?
I’d say dont expect anything, then you wont be disappointed. Approach PE with a Zen mindset, expect nothing and you’ll be pleased with any gains.

#2. I have all the time I need is there a more advanced routine I can do for better gains?
Only you can judge this. You’re just starting down the road. Go easy, injure yourself and you can be assured of no gains.

#3. Whats better light weight for longer? Heavy weight? I searched about this stuff but just got more confused.
Opinions differ. I like heavy wgt for about 20 mins a set, couple sets a night, along with some jelq and pumping.

#4. What are best things to use to attach to hanger? What kind of weights and stuff?
Any livestock in general is bad. They tend to run around and it becomes a problem.
Seriously, I like diver’s wgts strapped together, they’re lead : small and dense. I add 5 lb plate on top as needed. I think Dino use to use a boot with coins in it, so guys have used just about anything for wgt. You want to be able to drop the wgt immediately when necessary, so consider that as a important point.

Great post.

The only thing I would challenge is the high weight idea (particularly for a beginner), although it sounds like high weight/short time worked for you, probably because you were disciplined and also integrated jelqing and pumping in way that worked for you.

I always thought Dino’s boot with change was a good idea. Partly because of the ability to quickly drop the weight - an impprtant point I’m glad you brought up - but also the boot allows you a handy place to keep the change you might need to tip the pizza delivery girl.

LOL :funpost:

I sense another chicken thread coming on…

Hiya Hap

Ref the high wgt, you’re right, I should have stated it better.

I see “high wgt” as a relative term, for me high is > 20lbs, for other guys maybe 50lbs is, or 5lbs for that matter.
What I meant (and should have said) was hang with enough wgt that it feels heavy, not so that it feels like your hanging a cotton ball. But that’s my opinion.

>>…the boot allows you a handy place to keep the change you might need to tip the pizza delivery girl.
Now that’s funny. Imagine the look on her face. Or a young guy, “Dude, what the fuck are you doing with that boot?” hah… :)

I’m always interested to see if anybody has stuck with the hanging process and started to receive there gains? Most of the time that all it really is, putting in the time. The systems we offer have had some nice results for a lot of guys. Did you stick it out? What were the results?

The start idea behind hanging is to stretch the suspensory ligaments. This takes time. After 13 months of hanging only SD and BTC my ligs are almost fully stretched and I’m only hanging to cement it. Phase two will happen later, no rush.

Conditioning the cock to hanging takes approximately 6 to 8 months.i see this as an essential and unavoidable “hanging Newby routine”. If you can be disciplined to do that, the foundation is there.

Rather work on more sets at light weight, even if you think that your cock can easily take more weight. You want to lengthen the ligs, not strengthen them when they are short. Gradually, slowly, regularly.

Even if you can hang a set for longer than 15 minutes, don’t. Hanging should not be equated to time spent in extenders.

Hang light for more sets in the Newby conditioning fase. If you can only do 3 sets of 15 min a day spread them out over the day, not all 3 back to back.

More weight in the Newby fase is counter productive.

Hanging is not a running marathon, it’s its a slow walk every day.,
