How long should I hang ?

Its ok to do 3 series of 15 minutes each ? Its is better to hang less weight for a longer time -‘? or more weight for less time ?

I am fairly new to hanging myself … like everything else related to PE, there doesn’t seem to be a definitive answer and so you will need to read this forum and also BIB’s hangers forum to get a better understanding.

I have seen some vets that say that 45 minutes of hanging a day is adequate to get gains going … but the larger majority of members suggest that you need about 10 hours per week (i.e. an hour and a half a day)

I am struggling to get more than 45 minutes a day in … but this week I have made a push to find the time / privacy to get in 1.5 hours. I’ll let you know how it goes

There are plenty of posts on this, just do more research I guess. I am still in the newbie routine so I won’t be hanging for a while. Good luck

I think hanging for a longer amount of time is best because it works like an extender but with more stress, but I mix it up. If I have more hang time on one day then I’ll normally do longer sets with lighter weight, and on days when I don’t have much free time I’ll hang with heavier weight for shorter sets. I think it’s more important to keep hanging at the same angle than it is to continuously increase the weight.

I read a post on this forum that compared PE to doing the splits. Your d*ck is like a tendon and the best way to make it more flexible (longer/stronger) is by repeatedly stretching it in the same direction until you get the results that you want. So I don’t think the amount of weight is as important as the amount of time you spend keeping it stretched, as long as you’re applying enough stress to stretch it beyond what it is used to.

So, following the same logic, if I was to still feel fatigue at a lower weight, should I stay at that weight for a few more days, go go up 1lb a week like Bib says? I, personally, am aprehensive that I will strengthen the life if I do this rather than deform them. Also, I’m only at 6 lbs at the moment, and I have heard hanging gains really start to show at around 10 lbs of weight.
Thanks for any help. Don’t mean to hijack, but I thought my question was relavent.

The following is the time/weight progression suggested by Bib. Anyone can feel free to correct me, but I am pretty sure that this is it.

You should utilize as much of your available privacy time as possible. Add only one set a week. Once you have maxed out on privacy time, then increase weight. Increase weight by no more than 15% per week.

There are more things to consider such as split sessions and angles but this is the basics. I suggest you read more if you have time while you hang.

I evaluate in this order

1) feel while hanging. If it hurts, then stop and go lighter

2) post hang bpfsl (bone pressed flaccid stretch length). You should be longer after hanging.

3) PI’s (more specifically, morning wood)
