The amount of time you hang on a daily basis

[channel7]

What is the amount of time you spend hanging on a consist basis daily?

And what is the total inches you have gained?

This question applies to anyone who is currently hanging or once hanged.

Thanks

[Stunna]

Depends on how much private time I have, sometimes 20 minutes sometimes and hour it all depends. I have gained .2" BPEL since I started hanging a month and a half ago on and off.

[stillwantmore]

Last year from about June to August I hung an average total daily time of 4 hours a day (12, 20 minute sets a day), 5 sometimes 6 days a week. I gained 3/4" in that three months.

1 hour a day sometimes 2

[Mr. Nine]

It differs, I shoot for 20 hrs a week. It sometimes is rough, but the least is 12 hrs a week. I don't take days off with any length work. I know I have gained 2 inches in lenght since May '03,but I haven't measured in like 3 months. No offense to some,but in my opinion,anything less than 10 hrs. a week is not really hanging, and another opinion on hanging is that if you are not sore,bump up the intensity,or put the Bib in the drawer. :)

Enough opinionated thoughts,

I needed to hear that, man. Thanks

[freddre]

how do you have time to hang 20 hours a week? Are you counting rest? How many sets of how much time a day? Thats wild!

[channel7]

What position to you hang from?

[philadelph]

That is truly ambitious, 3-4 hours a day. I will be lucky if I get two hours a day of hanging time when I start hanging. Oh well.

[Mr. Nine]

BTC,mostly Channel7. I don't really follow the LOT theory though.

Philadelph, there is nothing wrong with 2 hours a day,or one for that matter. Any hanging at all is better than nothing. We all should follow what we "think" is right and listen to our dicks when they need a break. Noone has all the answers,I'm sorry. What I do hanging could injure others,etc.etc. I stated my opinion,that's all, I doubt if it's right,but it guides me.

[philadelph]

Lets say that you couldn't hang that long, would it be better to put on some more intense weight if that is the case?

[Mr. Nine]

Use enough weight to bring fatigue. When this takes place drop the weight accordingly if you are doing more than one set a time. The ideal goal in my mind would be to use the least amount of weight,and hang in the fatigued state. It shouldn't be a goal to get up to 50 lbs. there is no prize for anyone in a "maxing out" contest,only risk for great injury.

Unfortunately though, you will have to go up in weight eventually because your penis and ligs will get conditioned to the current load.For this reason alone,I could not expect any gains from manual stretching,I simply can't deliver that much upper body strength to pull harder than my current weights with any consistency.

Shit,back to topic please. I've gotten this thread off topic and I apologize.

I used to hang 20 mins a day.

[Supra]

More weight equals less time

[quijjiboo]

I started hanging 2 months ago and have gained about 1/2". Average 2 hours per day. I've tried high weight/less time and find that I fatigue much better with lower weight/long time.

This doesn't surprise me at all, Good luck.

[ctmwm]

Well I hang at least and hour a day I shoot for 1-1/2 to to hours though. I have gained 1"+ over the last year. Thats about all I do, other than stretch it when ever I take a leak, pulling on the glands and pushing down on the middle. It works great!!

[fallen_one23]

anyone still gain from regular stretching anymore?

[Supra]

Hell ya you can, that is all I do now

[ctmwm]

Yeah I toss some in during the day at work.

[DiamondJe]

wuz up fellas! i was just wondering if you guys were doing strait down hanging only while you hang for those 20 min or so and then do you mix it up during the hour or so long streches you guys do ? is it better to just hang straight down always or mix it up cuz ive only seen gains in my flaccid state ? oh and do the gains come after you have reached a certain flaccid state. im assuming that you have to have flaccid gains first then after that you starty seeing gains if any can help out thanks !!!

[REDZULU2003]

good thread, current hangers should add to this

[allergix]

I'm only new to hanging but I hang 5lbs in 20min sets until i'm fatigue then wear an andropenis extender for 2-4hours. As well as some manual stretching, as someone said earier, when taking a leak. And maybe 10min of dry jelqing on morning wood.

Hows is it working thus far?

[allergix]

Yeah going okay. Bigger flaccid hang and tiny bit longer flaccid stretch. Got some darker discoloration to the glans before bed but a bit of btb jelqing and slapping against my thighs gets the blood going and its mostly gone when i wake up in the morning. Def notice the fatigue each day and my whole unit feels a lot stretchier. Going to add another hanging set in the morning and maybe 2 at night.

[jseses]

I just started hanging. Start out with doing DLD's newbie stretches, then jump on the bathmate for 10 minutes. Followed by 100 quick jelqs, then I hang 4lbs for about 2 hours. When done, I edge for about 20 minutes. Depending how my unit feels after that, I jump on the bathmate for another 20 minutes. Rub some olive oil on it for a bit, edge again....then let it rest ;-).

Have only been doing this for a few days. My flacid hang is definately better. I think I have gained .2 in BPEL in a few days. Not bad. Will see how I go over a couple of months.

[MoreGains123]

then I hang 4lbs for about 2 hoursWhat are you using to hang for 2 continuous hours?

Sounds like a simple thing but slapping it back to good blood flow works best for me too. A good 3 minutes and colors back and plump as could be.

[jseses]

What are you using to hang for 2 continuous hours?

I don't hang continuously for two hours. Four half and hour sessions with 5 - 10 minutes break in the middle. Just to slap some blood back into the head. I bought a 4lb magnetic hanger from ebay, then modified it with some Velcro and glue. Works pretty well. Will see whats sort of gains it can give me in the next few months.

Magnetic hanger?

[Brotherhood]

I started hanging April 1st 2010

I'm still currently using 5lbs as I'm still working up in sets. I'm at 7 sets so far, going to shoot for 8 or 9 sets a day. This is going to be a bit difficult as i participate in MMA, have a workout schedule and work. An hour or two usually comes out of my nightly sleep but it's worth it in my opinion.

Sometimes I think to myself, "is all of this worth it, am i going to see results?". I then reflect on how gaining 1-2 inches would increase my confidence and I then *know* it is all worth it.

I'm hanging 100% BTC, I've come too far to ever quit, I'm gonna play the game. I'm a champion and i dont know how to lose.
