But it is posdible for someone older or in poor health. Imagine one lost 1-1.5” from when they were an athelete, now they are older and fat… With PE and excersize he regains his old length and keeps going gaining an additional 1-1.5” over what he had. Thats how you come up with 3”.
I agree. The bigger gains are probably a combination of restoring previous length and actuall gains.
However, I do believe that some of the huge claims are possible. I believe at some point our own life style limitations are stopping us more than anatomy/physiology limitations.
If a guy is religously putting in 30 hours a week hanging, and they are doing it as effectively as possible, I do believe within enough time they can achieve 3 inches of new gains.
The reality is that most of us don’t have the ability to put in 30 hours and most of us lack the perseverance to do this week after week.
For the ADS and extender users out there, 30 hours of those methods do not equal to 30 hours of hanging.
