The last bastion of hope.

Hi this is my first thread on here so please, bare with me :)

My experience extends way beyond what my join date is on here as I think I have lost the password for 3 accounts, but to be fair I was very much a lurker, BUT NO MORE (shouts from cliff top). Another time I will give a detailed account of everything that I have done in my PEing past, but the goal of this thread is to log my routine and progress in this new venture and seek guidence from those who have gone before me.

I started when I was 17 or 18 and I am now 26ish,… over that time I have taken, probably years off, and some on, and throughout all that I have done pretty much everything there is to do in PE. Having made mistakes and errors along the way but also some gains. -Starting out at 7” I have gained 1.5” in length losing 0.5 (during time off), and then getting back 0.6 last year. I know people say its easier to get it back, but that was pretty tough. For girth I have gained somewhere around 1” but I am not 100% sure on my starting point.. don’t really mind girth as its fun to get and now I think I may have made the error of getting too much at 6.2” (hopefully gone down since I stopped girth work). It really can be a problem in a relationship so thread with caution.

That being said…. I now seek out the last bastion of hope to reach the forbidden 9” through the power of hanging!!!!

Everything is set, so our tale begins……… (not sure why I have used Dungeons And Dragons quest voice but here we go )

Yesterday I did 1 hour at 2.5lbs (I use kgs but will say pounds here to keep with “Hanging 101”)

Today I used 2.5lbs for 1 hour

One question for and Vets, My penis is very well conditioned and may have built up quite the resistance to the weight, due to my previous experience. Should I start at 2.5lbs in keeping with the “Hanging 101” thread, or should I go for a higher starting point?

Any advice from hanging gainers would be most welcomed :)

Okay big mistake on my part I am using 4.4lbs (2kgs), unsure if I should continue with this or step it back? bringing it back to my last question I guess, I would really appreciate any advice if possible :)

I would recommend just going with a 15% a week progression as long as you are not feeling lots of soreness.

So if your skin, ligs, shaft feel really worn out then stay at the same weight. In the middle or near the end of your hanging set you have this feeling that you can’t take any more, then lower the weight. After that experience do not add weight the following week.

Even if you have beat up your penis using many other methods over the years, hanging is still a little different. For me whenever I go back to hanging after an extended break, I have a problem with skin conditioning. If I rush things my skin can’t handle it and it forces me to take a break.

There isn’t a rush.

Man thank you for the advice, greatly needed and appreciated

Is that increasing by 15% of the total weight at a time , or 15% of the starting weight, I assume the latter

I started at 4.4 pounds and there is no fatigue at all.. it feels great and like a walk in the park.. I cant really can’t stress enough how much strain I might have had on the extender, and how much I was manually stretching my penis, too much force I am sure.

I really respect you point and will take your advice. My massive, very real concern is that should I start at 2.2lbs like in hanger 101 or is my penis too tough and this progression will only ad to that toughness, or is me starting at this very bearable 4.4lbs more likely to toughen everything up?. I guess I can some this in to one question. Is it reasonable to say my effective (regarding growth) starting point might be higher than a person who started there PE experience with a hanger or fresh off the newbie routine?

Have a good day

Sorry if my message is disjointed trying to answer this at work is difficult :)

Decided to go with 4.4lbs to heck, it will be a long enough road without all this indecisiveness. I think I started on Wednesday and that shall be my week, so I will up the sets to 4 on that day

I hung for 60-70min Friday, and took Saturday off.

I will hang today (Sunday) for an hour. (3x20min sets)

Monday - 3 sets of 20 min at 4.4lbs.

All the things I have to sit on in this house are too short, my weights are nearly touching the ground, so I have to sit back and use something to pad the edge of the chair… not sure if this would now be considered a fulcrum hang???

Any advice again would be welcomed :)

What hanger? How are you attaching the weights?

Actually a lot of remedies for this issue.

Hi there, honored to have such a vet comment :)

I am using the Vac Hanger 3. The weights are being attached to the vacuum head piece.

And actually when you are here I was wondering if you have any advice for a well conditioned penis starting hanging? I am using 4.4 pounds right from the start (kg-lbs error on my part) But it feels completely fine no problem.

Should I be attacking different angles? I tried one set lying on my side on the bed, that felt really like it had PE potential.

Sorry, one last thing… I am using just the vacuum cone, and last night I felt it might be not pulling in the optimal way, I will try the compression sleeve today see how it goes but what are you feelings on the matter?

Thank you so much for stopping by and helping me :)

Hey man,
You are taking the same steps I have taken..

Started with 2.5 lbs (also using kg, just converting when posting) and I had previously done manual work with I would say quite some force.
About same amount of gains.

Progression has been +0.5 lbs weekly. I have tried +1lbs once or twice and I could clearly feel the difference on THAT day, but the next day, when I continued, it was normal.

I have also asked myself the question how fast to progress with the weights regarding my history. I came to the conclusion that it is better to be safe than sorry. Furthermore, people claim or rather, its common knowledge, that when you condition your penis to heavy weight, you wont gain from low weight.
Meaning, if you progress slowly, you will hang much more in total and therefore your total gains will be greater than otherwise.

Im sitting at about 9 lbs, no gains so far but I could swear I am bigger (NBPEL - hand measurements indicate it has grown).
People say it should happen around 8.5-12.5lbs.
Bibs says his gains came after 15+lbs.
Others say weight doesnt matter but total hangtime.

Welcome to hanging, have fun :D

Edit: Been chasing 8” for about 3 months >.<
Kinda going crazy over here sitting at 7.9” or worse with low EQ at 7.8” :(
If I continued with manuals, I would surely have ripped my penis off with all the impatience!

Hi Ehlolol, thanks for your message, it’s really nice to get your take on the whole thing, and from someone who is in the same metaphorical boat as myself.

Very well I will take your heed and progress slowly on this to be safe, just need to find 0.5lbs weights

I have tried lying on my side a few times, on the edge of the bed, and really like the feel, same feel I get when I have gained in the past. Give it a try (its easy to watch stuff too :) )

I was just reading through a few threads and seeing the discussions between marinera and others, I am a bit more confused than ever. But I actually feel I need to side with Marinera, as what he is saying is more logical to me. Perhaps the answer lies in the middle as with all these things. I am getting to 9” one way or another and you to 8” :)

You should measure soon to see how your going, then try the higher weights, if still no change you need fulcrums or to change something I guess.

Thanks for your information and being so nice it is what makes this site go round. And please let me know how your progress goes :)

Good Luck

Yesterday I did 3 20min sets at 4.4lbs. Later that night I got bored, and wanted to do another set so I did :) So total of 4 sets at 20min.

(Note) I have been doing hangs where I lie on my side at the edge of the bed, Not sure should I do this or just focus on SD hangs…. It feels great so I would like to introduce this into my routine. Physiological indicators are looking good, grade A erections.

Hanging is great as there is no need for porn, which really honestly messes with your mind after a while. (more supporting evidence of this)

Today has been my first week hanging, and so I add another set to the offical routine
So today (Wednesday) thats 4 sets at 4.4lbs 2 sets straight down, 1 on each side (2 sets)

I possibly will try add some jelqing into my routine, I will see, don’t want to over commit and then start not enjoying the routine, in my experience not enjoying any routine will lead to inconsistency and failure

You are welcome. You take, you give, thats my motto!

In the end, when you reach your final goal, one of the things that matter most is that your penis is still functional. Some people seem to forget about that and get their heads too much into little details.

If you fail to find 0.5 lbs weights, here is an idea:
Get those small 1 liter mineral-water bottles, those that are extra small, look kind of squished.
Since 1 liter equals to about 1kg, you can work with this. Fill it up to half, so 0.5l = 0.5kg = 1.1lbs.
Fill another bottle up to 1/4 liters, or 1/4 kg, which is 1/4 * 2.2 = 0.55lbs ~ 0.5 lbs!
Attaching the bottles to your hanger isnt a problem either: Just tie a rope around the necks of the bottles and the other end of the rope you attach to your hanger.
Done. I got like 3x 1 liter bottles lying around xD
But meanwhile, I have switched over to dumb-bell weights. Take much less space, dont touch the ground when sitting in my chair!
Perhaps you have a dumbbell lying around as well! I am working with 4x 1.25kg, and 4x 0.5kg weights. For example, I went from 8.25 lbs (= 3x 1.25kg) to 8.8 lbs (= 2x 1.25kg + 3x 0.5kg).

Yeah, there are very logical but contradicting arguments. In the end, the entire process should be dynamic and be controlled by observing your own body’s response to it. If people say X is the way to go, you do X, it doesn’t work and try out Y and observe it working on your body, than the means Y is the way to go for you!
I feel like its nice to read and inform yourself, especially about safety precautions. But in the end, you have to find what works for you. Dont dwell too much on that. I have been doing this for about 9 months and believe me, I have been pretty much reading & researching every day or minimum every other day since then for about at least 1 hour up to 2 hours. At this point, I have even read through the entire hanging forum (skimmed over non interesting threads, read all interesting one). Its easy to drown in the sea of information!
Good luck on reaching your goals!

As a matter of fact, I just did that a few hours after posting. Seems like I have entered 8”+ territory :D :D
My hanging plan-of-attack:
1. SD hanging, weight progression to about max 15-18 lbs or so.
2. switch to SO hanging, weight progression to about same max values
3. fulcrum, SO-SD, same weight progression
4. fulcrum with heat/rice sock, SO-SD.
I think I wont really need to go that far. I have only got like a few tenths of inches to gain. Like max +0.2 or so.

Thank you too.

Yes I use the dumbbell stuff also, just about not touching the ground, kinda have to sit back… and pad the edge of the chair…maybe that makes it more of a fulcurm stretch… yes I must use the 1.25 and the 0.5 and 1 and I should get all I want :) thank you
Do you think I should spend each week increasing my sets by 1 or should I increase my weight one week, then set another??…. I just hate the thought of my penis getting conditioned to this weight to receive no gains at the next (maybe not gains but the beginnings of gains )

Hahaha yes I too am going through old threads and am perhaps spending too much time here :)
Yes from all I have done you must find your own way. I do believe somewhat in the way prescribed by the Jez extender guys, that maybe smaller increases for longer time under tension but if you spend less time you can increase more… I was doing that with the ads I went up a smallest rod measurement ever 5 days I think (lost the damn instructions they gave) but that worked :) Although I just remembered they said to measure your erect length… then start lower than that, and after that they added the pieces every 5 days or something like I said…. hmmm interesting (walks off lost in thought)

Ahhhh coool man that is really awesome… really now I mean it its so good when you get past that blocker, for e it was 8.5-8.6 as I lost over half an inch and when below 8” after a long time off and to get past 8.5 was great.. I am not probably 8.5 again but soon I hope to reach my new goals jsut like you.

How much did you gain with the hanger total then.? Oh two last things, I have been trying lying down on my side on my bed and hanging like that (changing sides per set) and it feels sooo great, like from my experience this feeling will lead to gains. Have you tried this?? And lastly how do you do the Straight Out (SO) hang?

If your gains are coming now maybe do that routine you speak of… keep the groth going even if it goes beyond you expectations.. then when you tire of that move on to girth :) But keep doing a little length, DON’T loose it like I did. (but maybe if I didn’t loose it I would not be here now)

Lets keep in touch. Good luck
