Why we hang near...

Why we hang near glans and not from the base of the penis is there some anatomy reason for this , if so , can you explain it to me.

Hey Wintergates,

Hangers can have various attachment points. Vacuum hangers typically grip the upper shaft and glans, pulling the entire length of the penis, and sometimes distributing more of the load further down the shaft as well. Compression hangers’ grip is more localized, and the attachment point can be anywhere along the shaft. Attachment points close to the glans put stress on a greater portion of the shaft. Attachment points closer to the body have more meat to grab onto, thus making it more comfortable, but they stress less of the shaft.

So there is an exchange between making sure the hanger has enough to grab onto (comfort) and maximizing the amount of shaft that it is pulling on (attaching closer to the glans).

Especially when starting out, I’d advise finding the most comfortable attachment point, and hanging with as much circulation as possible. Generally, this means attaching near the base or midshaft area for a compression hanger, although everyone has their own unique most comfortable spot to put it. The upper part of the shaft will not get stressed, however this has certainly not stopped people from gaining. And vacuum hangers are available to pull through the entire length of the shaft if so desired.

Do u think i can gain from erect hang , im hanging light its a hulk hand made of metal that weights like 1.8lbs but im not full hard cuz when i hang my EQ automatically sets like in a state of a mix erect-soft like a shower hanging is this a good aproach i have the feel that this is gonna work VERY good as you said everyone is different , ill be waiting for your reply.

I recommend that you do not intentionally hang in the erect state with a compression hanger. While it is possible to gain from that, I believe it is a recipe for discoloration, and that it is much easier to get an injury hanging erect.

What you are describing sounds different though. Your hanger is causing a moderate clamp effect. It is not necessarily a bad thing, and it is unavoidable with certain attachment set ups. However, I suggest minimizing the effect and maximizing circulation while in the hanger. In other words, it is normal for the portion of your shaft distal to the hanger to become partially engorged. But you do not want it to be so engorged that it is cutting off circulation. If too much blood is trapped beyond the hanger, it can cause fluid build up, discoloration, and a less comfortable hang. The less circulation there is, the shorter your set times should be.

A member by the name of xenolith described excellent modifications to the Bib Hardcore hanger that allow for a high circulation hanger attachment.

My hanger is homemade inspirated by this one but with a shoe lace instead of that green lace

I’ve never tried the pure noose style, although I did experiment briefly with using cable clamps and neoprene sleeves for a very similar attachment effect. That experiment did not last long.

Here is what I use.

If you plan to hang a lot, I’d suggest either making a better homemade hanger, or buying a commercial one. If you browse around the hanging forum there are a lot of available do-it-yourself designs. Some guys have even built out their noose hangers to spread the force over a much larger area for more comfort.

If you remember me , im the one who get thrombosis from jelqing 3hs per night during 7 months so yes i need something to workout for more than 3hours , i read on the internet that hanging is very time demanding , do you think hanging is perfect for me , i start my ritual at 21pm till 0:00am sometimes 1:00am , i have the feel that what im doing its working and i am enjoing it , do you think i can just test for 3 months if this feeling i have can become reality and about the hanger ill see what i do.

Yes, if you are motivated and are capable of doing PE for 3 to 4 hours per day, and you want a high percentage way to gain length, then hanging is for you. There’s a good chance you would see gains in 3 months.

Hanging has a learning curve to it. There is a common injury when starting out - compressing too much or for too long the dorsal nerve in the penis and getting temporary numbness. Avoid being overzealous at the outset, especially with a noose hanger.

Considering how much you plan to hang, I strongly recommend using a better hanger. My recommendation again is the Bib Hardcore with xenolith’s modifications found in this thread: Hang Without Wrap?

Theres another thing i want to know , everyone say that hanging decreases your EQ and also mark it as a negative PI but at the same time when you see a man with a very long dong you see he has issues to wake up his friend , so the equation is simple isnt it , do you understand where i go , is that simple how i put it out or theres something more. Thanks

Hanging can boost EQ at first, but as you continue it can lower it. For me it would take longer to get erect, but once I was there hardness was normal. Everyone is a little different in how it might affect them. EQ will depend a lot on how much circulation you get while hanging and total hanging time. After you stop hanging, EQ returns to normal within a few days.

It is almost impossible to generate an elongation on an erect penis while hanging in the erect state, the force applied would be so strong that it would generate an injury in the tunica albuginea and rupture of the CC, in these conditions a fracture of the penis is what we could get.

Hey BD is it possible to do those modifications on a bib starter? Or use it in a similar way?

I wanted to do those modifications to the hardcore but don’t think I have enough skills for that mod.

I had the same trepidation when I was thinking about the mods. The idea of messing up on a $100 dollar piece of equipment was daunting. In retrospect though, it was all easy and there was always a large safety margin.

It might be possible to do the mods on a Starter. I had one at the time, but decided to order a Hardcore. Knowing what I do now, I think I could do the mods to the Starter. It would basically entail ripping off the gel padding, and removing any leftover padding glue, and then continuing with the same modifications xenolith described. While you could get a similar effect with the padding still in place (in terms of toe-out and tighter top closure), I don’t think it would grip the penis without wrap the same way the pilates band material does. The gel pads are slick by comparison. Also the padding would limit how tightly the top could be closed. Another difference might be the well shapes of the hanger underneath the padding. They are not the exact same design underneath.

Overall, yes, I think it is possible to get the same effect with a little more work. But I don’t know for sure. If you like using your Starter, and plan to still use your Starter, I would not risk ruining it by these mods. I’d recommend ordering the Hardcore. If you never use the Starter anymore, you could probably convert it into something very similar to the modified hardcore.

Never hang erect. Not only is it not effective, it is asking for an injury.

I’m pretty sure OP’s question was referring to hanging on a blood plug and not actual erect hanging.

Having experimented extensively with actual erect hanging, I would agree with a compression hanger it is a waste of time with a risk of injury

Erect hanging with a compression hanger is a lot more like weighted clamping than hanging. Personally I found it to be a surefire way to get discoloration. Although I never got an injury from it (other than the fast discoloration) it is one of the riskier forms of PE because there is basically an erect micro bend happening around the clamp (hanger attachment). An erect micro bend in and of itself is not a terrible thing, but holding it for the set times and forces typical of hanging is where the injury risk comes in. Overall, you can achieve a similar effect to erect compression hanging with much less risk by various forms of clamping, which is why it is widely considered a bad idea.

Erect hanging with a vacuum hanger on the other hand is a different animal, and very safe in my experience. I’ve done it at upward angles for easily over 100 hours with no problems whatsoever. There is no clamp effect, on the contrary the glans compression and elongation will tend to soften the erection. Sometimes I add a clamp at the base for this reason. The vac hanger sleeve grips the shaft over a large area and pulls along the axis of the shaft, making it perhaps the most effective way to grip and stretch an erection. One of my favorite PE exercises is weighted erect kegeling while vac hanging at an upward angle. A great workout for the skeletal muscles at the base of the penis. Ultimately too much technique and hanger adjustment fuss for me to regularly incorporate it though. I only use it as an adjunct to normal (flaccid) hanging for length.
