Why does SD feel better than BTC?

Hey guys, I’ve been hanging for almost 2 weeks now and have a few questions.

Other than excrutiating pain, what are the common symptoms of hanging too much weight? For instance, will I stretch more skin than ligs? The reason I ask is because I was hanging 7 pounds SD tonight and I felt it predominantly in my ligs, wasn’t too intense though. So I eased back into BTC so I could increase the intensity in my ligs and all that happened was a super intense skin stretch. Oh man was it intense; no pain, just INTENSE.

Also, how many of you guys have gotten stretch marks from hanging? I have some coming up but don’t care that much. Later,

Sounds normal to me. For strick BTC I too experience skin stretch (burning) early in the set versus SD.
I sometimes feel skin stretch if the hanger is not tight enough. Also having the right wrap and placing the hanger in the right place is important. Other symptoms of hanging too much weight would include sharp pains, bruises, red spots, numbness… It takes time and experience to learn how to distiguish between fatigue and overtraining.

I have some small stretch marks.

I don’t like BTC too much skin. Skin stretch is a natrual part of hanging. You need to stretch the skin during the first few weeks or so to better target the ligs. There are a lot of threads on this I’m sure some kind member will post a link.

You have to stretch the skin before the ligs take any of the weight. Just go easy and it will feel better after a while. You should not feel “pain”.

Why does everyone echo Biggers take on skin stetch? He was after getting suffiecient extra skin to sag down and cover the glans when faccid; he called it foreskin restoration. Most of us would like a normal looking flaccid cock. He even went top the extent of attaching the hanger close to the pubic bone to stretch skin exclusively….rediculous. Stretch the skin at same time as targting the ligs….just use more weight. BUT by all means attach the hanger half inch behind the glans to stretch skin the minimum. BTC stretches skin more than SD simply because of the skin on top of the cock is on a larger radius because cock is making a semi-circle.

I dont know what its called,if it has a name,but I stretch while bent over at the waist 90deg. standing.I find that it hurts like hell if I hang SD or BTC. I use 11 pounds and swing the weight in a circular fashion,very gently. It seems to target my whole dick. Maybe I`m wrong, I am kinda new at it. It also tends to stretch the skin the least.

I would like to know if anybody else hangs this way. I may start a thread for this question.

Well I guess that would qualify as SO hanging. I felt the same thing when I get up from BTC to cut off my IR lamp. It stretches no skin and I feel a strong pull in my ligs, but not so much my tunica.

In my experience, SD always seemed more natural. From time to time, I would do BTC to get a good skin stretch. I have a good deal of stretch marks. Be careful when stressing the skin as to not cause it to tear, this will wake you up quickly.

Bib stretched more skin than necessary. I was cut fairly loosely and still had to stretch a little skin before I could hang BTC without the skin taking the load. Guys cut tighter than I was will need to stretch even more.

You don’t have to go overboard into the realm of restoration, but unless you develop adequate slack you’ll miss out on what was for me a very productive hanging position.

I have the same problem but it seems my problem is with the wrap. What does everyone use for a wrap?
