pre-post workout BPFSL

Hi guys.

What would you understand if your pre-hanging-session BP-Flaccid-Stretched-Length is 21.6cm, and after workout, it´s not only NOT LONGER, but shorter: 21.2cm ????

I was used to very small increases in the bpfsl after workouts, usually 1-2 mm longer, but this ?… what could be causing it?

¿????

Negative PI’s. Reduce daily volume, or intensity, or take more rest days.

I thought rest days are not indicated in hanging routines… but yes guess it was high volume for a hanging first day, 8 sets with 3-5 pounds….

Try consistency and hanging daily. Unless you injure yourself you really shouldn’t take a day off. Maybe reset to just a few pounds, say 3, and focus on increasing time spent hanging. I’m up to a solid hour with my first set of the day, straight down with 4lbs. Now 4lbs isn’t much but I’m also not trying to do something like hang 15-20 pounds for short periods. Slow and steady wins the race. I do that 1st set for an hour then 2 to 4 thirty minute sets OTL. Every day. I only increase the weight when I feel nothing from the current weight and I only increase it by 1/3lb. I usually stay at least two weeks at the same weight, but 4lbs is putting some good pressure on it so I’m probably going to stay at 4lb for a month and see what, if anything, I can get out of it in different hanging ways before I move on.

Now resetting isn’t a negative thing. Say you’ve been hanging 5lbs+ off and on (that’s what you’re doing by taking rest days) for six months or so. You have let your gains heal in various stages probably because you weren’t consistent. If you take a day off, then hang three then take two more off then the micro tears you’ve caused have now inconsistently healed. You have more scar tissue in odd and various places along your shaft that you now need to break apart. This is also why you should never vary your hanging routine or stop a position cold turkey. You can absolutely shorten your penile tissue from too much scarring.

How much heat you DONT use also affects what is going on. I’ll start my heating pad on high, fold it up and place it right on top of the pelvis and shaft for 30 minutes before attempting my 1st set. This will break up anything needing to be and give you a solid positive starting point. First things first, avoid injury by making sure it’s ready to stretch. My bpfsl was 7.5” when I started this daily journey on 8/27 and now its extremely close to 9”. I only pay attention to my bpfsl too.

If you decide to reset and do a daily routine (this is highly suggested) you won’t feel a lot of fatigue at first, just wait though. Time has a way of making you feel like you have 50lbs on there instead of 2-3.

I should also add that I use my own homemade vacuum hanger too. I’ve never used a bib style hanger.

So with the vachanger you can do different kind of routine with longer sets that may make good use of lower weights.
So what you recomend in short is:

-No rest days,
-More time under lower weights.
-Dont increase weight unless feeling absolutely nothing in terms of fatigue
-1/3 or 1/2 pound increments after
-Dont increase weight before 15 days.
-Use good heat preparation before start routine.

and you say you gained close to 1.5 inch in 4 months using that low weights?????? if so, that´s insane

Also, what angles do you use? what is OTL?

thanks

You dont experience blisters?

BiB recommends to start using max weight in first sets and always advice against keep hanging weights that dont create fatigue early on.
Your scope is different and trust the low weight can do the same in longer sets using vac hangers but being close to 2-3 pound is a tension more proper to extenders, and people use them for several hours a day, so how are those weights working in a hanging routine while you dont do more than 2-3 total hours? could you explain a little bit more?
