Routine Assistance & General Hanging Questions

Yeah, I asked about OTS fulcrum hanging because it’s mentioned in the 2006 Hanging thread, in the first post.
“About one inch was made fairly quickly, hanging at the BTC angle, and the rest hanging OTS with and without a fulcrum, and SO with and without a fulcrum.”

I’ll have to try this fulcrum hanging, but my only concern is that I have a Bib original…or maybe it’s a starter.
I don’t know. It’s the widest of the two, so I’m guessing it’s the original since this was a prototype that he gave me before he started making them public. He did this for some Bib beta-testers back in the day, which was REALLY cool of him. Anyway, I’m trying to figure out how to get a PVC pipe under my shaft with that wide hanger on. It’s probably really easy to do, and I’m overthinking it. I’ll try it out later.

Yeah, my injury is one of those “too much pressure in the glans” injuries, so it feels like I’m bruised inside.
It sucks.

Taking into account the theory behind extenders, I do think there’s something to be said for lighter weight, longer time. However, I also see the potential in moving up to heavier weights.
It’s interesting that you move up in weights during your set. Do you do that to reach fatigue at the higher weight, or do you reach it @ 12 lbs., and push past that to a heavier weight?
What is this technique called? Reverse something…

I think fatigue is the main factor as well. There was a time when I was at fatigue 24/7 for over a week, but that’s subsided now, unfortunately. It happened when I made the change from 3 lbs. to 5 lbs., so maybe when I move up to 8 that daily fatigue will come back.

Luckily you’ve gotten gains with your routine(s). I, unfortunately, haven’t.
I’m hoping I’m one of those guys who start gaining once they get up to 10+ lbs a day/10+ hours a week.
Time will tell.

I know how you feel about being a thread killer. I’ve killed threads before they even began, which is why I’m glad this thread has finally got some action.

Thanks for the replies to my questions.

I use the big Bib.

I move up in weight quickly until I feel I’m at my limit, and that’s what finish the set with. I like to hang at my upper limit for most of the set. Sometime I’ll grit my teeth and add just a bit more for the last couple minutes, just to push it. Probably not the smartest thing to do, but I really think you have to push past the comfort zone.

Gains, ya, but logically I’d think my dick should be like 18inches for the time it spends in traction, and getting pulled, squeezed, clamped, compressed, etc.

Hopefully once you get into a bit heavier weight, things will pickup for you. It’s easy to get discouraged and chuck it all, but hang in there man.

I’ve tried hanging SO with a fulcrum before, but I place the fulcrum against the dorsal side of my shaft. It gives a very good stretch.

You’ll probably have a very good setup if you place the lat bar over your head and use a fulcrum to push your dick’s exit angle down to about 10 o’clock.

The size of your hanger starts to become important when you use a fulcrum. Big hangers don’t work as well as smaller ones, IMO. I really like using the Wenchette for fulcrum hanging—especially in the 15# and below range.

Here are my thoughts from another thread: Which is better…?

I think my own definition of ‘fatigue’ should maybe be revised (what I mean by ‘fatigue’ above is a state where your penis is so worked that you can’t hang any more sets).

I’ve just come back to hanging after a four-month deconditioning break. After reading this thread (since everyone’s input seems so compelling) I’ve increased my weight from 5lbs to 7lbs and will be increasing more as soon as is possible so as to exceed 10 to 12 lbs.
