Short time extender use worth it?

Is there any benefit to using an extender for an hour or 2 hours daily after stretching or hanging as supplemental? There are a couple of days I could do 2-4 hours. Just don't want to pay $ for something that won't benefit if u have to wear 6 hours daily for any benefit.

From what I've seen with my Phallosan(and it's less intense than a standard stretcher), yes. I don't think it's doing a whole lot to actually cause growth itself. However, after wearing it a few hours, my penis and ligs are just a lot stretchier. I can go a lot further on my manual exercises than if I haven't worn it.

I think if you use a stretcher for only 2-4 hours in absence of anything else(manual stretches, hanging, etc), then I don't think you'll see much. But I do think it helps as a supplement.

Riley - yes, I think that you could see a LOT of benefit by adding 1 to 2 hours to the rest of your routine. Even if all you did was wear the PF (I'm not a manual person), I'd think you would be extremely pleased adding some extender time to your routine.

A lot of people will call a PF an extender as if it does the same thing as a traditional rod extender. But, it doesn't. Putting a PF on for 1 to 2 hours per day would be a waste of time. I don't think you would feel that way with a rod extender. Especially so if you can wear an extender 1 to 2 hours per day and then keep the PF on to remain in a stretched state.

With any device, do your research. One of the most important things is how the device attaches to your penis. It really comes down to compression vs. vacuum. I stick to vacuum for everything as I believe it to be more safe and more comfortable (comfort being the key for sticking with a program).

Examples:

Vacuum Attachment:
- ADS: Phallosan Forte
- Extender: PMP
- Hanger: LG Hanger

Compression Attachment:
- Extender: SG, X4, JES (basically everything but PMP)
- Hanger: Bib, MaleEdge, The Sock, Zen

It is easy to tell the difference. With compression it looks like "hey, just slide your dick under this strap and pull really tight until your dick is smashed and makes a shelf...yeah, that's it, now make sure to let it breath when it turns blue..."

I think a consistant 1.5 to 2 hours a day at least five days a week will benefit to some extent. I averaged about 3.5 hours a day and increased my length by almost one inch, albeit took five years.

There can be some benefit to this also if you use some other form of training before extending. Something like a manual stretch session done right before will help you to cut the time down effectively.

So, feel like I have amassed a large toy bag for PE...and I so I took a bite of the extender now. I ordered today and will see how best to incorporate it into my PE routine. My initial plan is as follows now with the extnder (I'm backing of hanging for a while):

*yes I am well conditioned

I get up very early (4am---to run/exercise)
5am PE start
1> the obligatory 5 minute warm up
2> manual stretching for 20 minutes
3> 7.5 hanging with LG hanger for 10 minutes...I've really found this helps with flaccid hang after my manual
4> extender use for 30 minutes

Mid-day
1> obligatory 5 minute warm up
2> Stretch for 20 minutes
3> wear extender for 1 1/2 hours
4> jelq for 5 minutes
