hanging vs. extending

Real quick before I throw down plastic, any ideas for acquiring the weights? I know one might start with fishing weights, but then they work up to those big discs that are used on dumbbells as I understand it...
Can one just get 1 lb., 2 lb., 3lb., etc. weights that are suitable to be tied to the hanger somewhere?

Go to a sports "resale" shop (e.g. Play It Again Sports), second hand stores, and garage sales. Someone is always selling their old weights, and you can pick and choose the ones you want.

I was planning on using the static stretcher , they say you can go up to 10lbs of force with it but something came up and my money went elsewhere ... I cant sleep without watching a movie so im considering still getting it using it for a few hours aday and use the light duty one while i sleep and once 10lbs is no long enough switch to hanging but im expecting this to be good for a year and a little more convenient.

extenders seem safe even for beginners but it seems once you gain about 1.5" to 2" with an extender, you'll plateau.

once you can't gain with an extender, hanging may be the only productive / efficient way to keep making gains.

extenders are useful; i don't mean to imply otherwise. perhaps the best benefit of an extender is that you can increase your length without getting turkeyneck (since the extender base will hold your shaft skin in place).

i have thought of trying an extender for this very reason (to stretch my shaft skin safely--and to prevent turkeyneck).

That is exactly my experience. I fully agree. For me, using the extender along with manual PE was a great way for me to hit my first goal. But in fact I did max out, and the gains stopped. Now, thanks to blink's hanging articles, I'm hanging and beginning to make new gains. I cannot see going back to the extender now except for the turkey neck issue.

Maybe some people can gain more than 2 inches but it is probably debatable just how many can gain more than 2 inches and still have a totally working penis. I have seen guys whose penises were very stretched in other countries (like some men in india and men in African tribes on the discovery channel) but they also couldn't have sex. So...

Hey guys, I understand that hanging has the benefit of adding more weight, but for me I think and extender would be enough for now.

What benefits does extending have over hanging?
I think I understand what "turkey neck" is but will it hinder growth at all or just look bad..?

I am uncircumcised, so would either one be easier to use for me?

Thanks!

personaly i think i would go with extending in which i am going to only because you can use the extender even when your just at work etc. heres the best extender out on the market and ive talk personally with someone who has been through every extender on the market and said this one you cant go wrong with here you go buddy. Penis Extender and Penis Enlargement by X4 Labs

I reviewed the x4 and gave them a 2, for sending me a bent screw and no respons to my complant, soon after I received an email asking if I wanted the screw rushed for an extra $20. It looks like they emailed me before the review and I'd like to change my review. Is that possible? I don't want to bad month anyone that's trying their best.

I think hanging gives the most gains for length.

I just got my hanger and tried it out today. You can really feel the stretch. I was using much less force manually.... I don't imagine extending can give you as much force.

I'm glad I went with the hanger. Feels tough!

I didn't try both and i don't think i would use in the future.Maybe the extender...I'm scared it will my lenght but decrease my girth or at least increase lenght wich make my girth seems smaller... Btw i suggest u to use extender cause is a medical device and is pretty safe if you follow the instruction.Maybe hanging is mor effective but would damage your penis.I would never be happy to get a super long penis as africans tribe doing hanging that wouldn reach a full erections...Be carful first of all penis health remember...
A lot of people are very satisfy with combo Pump+ Extender wich i think if used properly can give you great results without damaging your unit...
Pump for girth and extender for lenght and maybe will help to cement pump gain also

Yes indeed, the extender is a medical device but is only endorsed for penile curvature correction. Surgeons recommend the use of a hanging device after enlargement operations, in fact they say it is vital to the result in size increase.

I have been using my extender for six months for about 3.5 hours a day. I have seen my BPXL gain close to an inch; however, my other measurements have shown only slight improvement. I like using the extender (with velcro straps) because I am doing all my PE under stealth and I can wear my extender under my cloths and do it in bed at night. Today, I used a home made sock hanger for the first time and hung a 5lb weight for 20 minutes. I plan on hanging 3 days a week (while my wife is at physical theropy) and continue using my extender and try to increase my time up to 4+ hours a day.

I have been wearing an extender for 4.5 months for 6-8 hours a day. It is a pain to keep the noose on so I can't wear all the padding so I get a lot of agitation after an hour. At first I could wear it downward and it wasn't too noticeable but now I have to wear it upward(so nobody sees the large bulge in my pants) but I am feeling I am starting to see smaller gains because of it. I try to wear it downward when I get home to balance it out. Anyway, I plan on moving to a bib hanger when I have reached my max with this thing. I can definitely tell that hanging downward would give me much better gains.

Blink,
I find your post very imformative on this topic Blink.
I was comtemplating buying a stretcher now. I think I may
start with the x 4. And than after I plateau use A Units homeade
stretcher that he says you get a lot more force than conventional
stretchers. He only uses it thirty minute in a hot bath a day.
Also to save some money I was thinking about just a homeade ads
instread of the austo exsleeve. Are the homeade ads successful and
where can I find out how to make one maybe where I can hang some light
weights with too?

thanks
Marshall
