Hang - Heat - Cool - Release

Hello,

Intro
I came back here after a long time and became very interested in the work done by Kypra, Manko, 5.5, Scienceguy .et al. In the hanging with US and Heat Pad.
The approach really resonated with me because of the engineering approach, the ability to calculate exact load a stress/strain and make scientific based adjustments.

I started P.E. Here a long time ago, since then I have lost 0.6 inches from my biggest ever measurement, 11 years ago. But kept 0.75 inches from where I started 16 years ago.
My original stats and measurements are in my signature.

Hanging Equipment

All equipment used is from Total Man - which I bought in the Black Friday sale.
The only other equipment I’ll be using is Golf Weights, each one weighs 160g and will provide the incremental step ups.
I’ll be using Compression Hanging as my main exercise, so that enough of the shaft is exposed for the Heat Pad.
I also have the equipment for Vacuum Hanging - as I bought a full kit, so if compression doesn’t work out for whatever reason, I have that as a back up.

Method
2 days on 1 day off. My initial plan is to go for 5 weeks on and 3 weeks off; but depending on strain measurements, this could end up changing.
I’ll be using the slow build up approach as outlined in this post by Science Guy scienceguy - let’s see what happens
And using weights based on Kypra’s Load Calculator

The Routine is as follows:

250g - 2 mins
410g - 2 mins
500g - 2 mins
660g - 2 mins
750g - 2 mins
910g - 2 mins
1.0kg - 2 mins
1.16kg - 2 mins
1.25kg - 2 mins
1.41kg - 2 mins (Turn on heat pad here)
1.5kg - 2 mins
1.66kg - 2 mins
1.75kg - 2 mins
1.91kg - 2 mins
2.0kg - 2 mins
2.16kg - 2 mins
2.25kg - 2 mins (Heat pad at full temp)
2.41kg - 2 mins
2.5kg - 2 mins (Internal temp at 40ºC at 20min mark according to Manko’s research)
2.66kg - 2 mins
2.75kg - 20 mins (Heat pad turned off here, removed 5mins after turning off. It takes the Penis 20 mins to return to body temperature after removing the heat pad according to Longerstretch’s research)

The routine should take no longer than 75mins from putting on the hanger till the end of the cool down. Weights and times are subject to change depending on how I progress and when things stall.

Current Stats
18.5cm - BPFSL
17.5cm - BPEL
12.7cm - MEG

These are the only 3 measurements that I feel really matter in this routine, so the only ones I’ll keep track of.

Goal
My primary goal is more aesthetic. I would like my Penis to look circumcised when fully erect.
Considering the amount of foreskin I have, this would be somewhere near 3.5 - 5 cm of extra Penis length required, under the premise that there will be little skin stretching along with the compression hanging.
I know the goal is a lengthy one, but I’m confident in the in the new methodology and ground work put in by all of the other members who I’ve mentioned.

I’ll update this thread when I get started. I won’t be posting daily updates, but more likely weekly or fortnightly depending if anything interesting comes up.

I don’t expect anyone to follow along, but if you are interested - welcome to the journey!

Great approach. Good luck!

BTW, one can use an IR heat pad over a portion of silicone sleeve, so don’t let that dissuade you from vacuum hanging if that is your preference.

Cheers! 👍🏼

Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind. Compression is definitely the preference at the moment, just for the ease of getting it on and off.

Changes and Updates as of Feb 11th

Reality set in and I quickly realised what I could and couldn’t do time wise and how long it takes to set things up and perform the whole routine. I had to start in Feb, January was just a no-go for me. In Feb I’ve only managed to do 3 sessions. I’m still trying to find my routine and have enough spaces in the week to make it a habit and not a chore.

I’ve stripped back a lot and try to make it as simple as possible. The changing weights in super small increments every 2 mins was ridiculous, even though "testing" showed positive results for strain, it just wasn’t practical in real life. I also decided to ADS a lot more, after session and on off days as a supplementary exercise just to keep things extended and get some more time under tension in.

I honestly didn’t think I’d see any results, but I also think that this could just be old lost gains making a return. I will start thinking of it as "New Gains" once I get over 19cm BPEL.

New Shedule
1 day on 1 day off hanging with ADS on "off days". I don’t have the time to do more than this, and sometimes even this might not happen. But this is the most realistic schedule I can commit to.

The Routine:

1.25kg - 3 mins (Starting at a heavier weight)
1.50kg - 3 mins
1.75kg - 3 mins
2.00kg - 3 mins
2.25kg - 3 mins (Heat pad turned on)
2.50kg - 3 mins
2.75kg - 3 mins
3.00kg - 3 mins
3.25kg - 3 mins
3.50kg - 3 mins (Internal temp at 40ºC at 20min mark according to Manko’s research)
3.75kg - 3 mins. (Heating Pad turned off and removed)
3.75kg - 15mins (Cool down hang)

ADS - 90-120mins

Also using the ADS in 90-120min intervals on non-hanging days, but it hasn’t been every non-hanging day.

Previous and Current Stats

Dec ‘23 - 11th Feb’23
18.5cm - BPFSL - 18.7cm. (+2 mm)
17.5cm - BPEL - 18.1 cm (+6 mm)
12.7cm - MEG - 13.1 cm (+4 mm)

What Ir heating pad are you using. I have hot a wall on growth. I need something to continue my progress. Any suggestions. I hang at 10lbs for 20 minutes. Pump for 30. Use the roller for 5 to 10 minutes and clamp for 15-20 minutes anywhere between 3-5 days weekly.

My first time successfully measuring strain:

18.6cm BPFSL (Pre Session)
19.2 cm BPFSL (Post Session)

Strain = 2.67%

I’m using the one from Total Man. It’s a NIR Graphene Heating Pad.

I haven’t used any others, so I don’t know how it would compare to anything else. But a lot of users on here have had good results from it.

18.9cm BPFSL

Yesterday
18.5cm BPEL

Today
18.9cm Pre- BPFSL
19.4cm Post- BPFSL

Strain - 2.64%

Still a few more days to get in a final February measurement.

Today
19.2cm Pre- BPFSL
19.8cm Post- BPFSL

Strain - 3.125%

Yesterday

Yesterday
19.4cm Pre- BPFSL
19.9cm Post- BPFSL

18.9cm - BPEL

12.7cm - MSEG

Had to take a few weeks off. I guess that became my unofficial "decon" time.

Results from this weekend.

18.1cm - BPEL

After 3+ weeks off, I returned to my early February measurements. Which is a little annoying.

18.4cm - BPFSL (Pre Session)
18.8cm - BPFSL (Post Session)

Strain = 2.17%

Today
18.6cm Pre- BPFSL
18.8cm Post- BPFSL

Strain - 1.07%
