Progressive Weight Hanging. Gain More In Less Time

[malehanger Banned Find all posts View Profile Close malehanger]

You may have a point here, okay...so my wrap is JUST ace wrap (15 inches). My erect girth is (4.5 inches), I am using a bib starter, and it has give or take(~23) threads from bolt to bolt.
So far when i move up in weight I don't have any injuries because i remove the extra weight if it is too uncomfortable. To be honest the hanger is pretty tight with top teeth meshed together. The only thing that happens when i tighten and pulse push is that the hanger will move up and sit around the shoulders of the head. I'm thinking that you might be right about my wrap settings not being sufficient, many times the ace wrap pinches the skin because of the rough material, but i don't know what else to use..

To answer ur question about the weight dropping..
Yes i start each day with my max and drop weight to remain comfortable. There was a point in my hanging that I would start at a weight that was less than max weight, but I guess I got lost somewhere?

What would you recommend I do ? (thanks for your help!)

First, try this. Turn your bottom adjustment nuts in so you have 10 threads showing between the hanger hinge and the nut. Next, get yourself a cheap sweatshirt if you don't already have one laying around that you don't wear. How wide is the self adhesive wrap you use? Switch to a two inch wide wrap if you use wider. Cut yourself a 9 inch length of the self adhesive wrap and use it as a stencil to cut the same size piece of sweatshirt material. Both pieces of wrap will be 2"X9". Wrap first with the SS material. Follow with the self adhesive. Squeeze everything together really well a few times then put on your hanger. Seat your penis as deep as you can. Just above or right on the bottom teeth will work. Latch your hanger with the top bolt. Squeeze excess blood from the front of your penis and glans. Pull your hanger forward so that you are lined up about where you would be when hanging. Now begin tightening. Every dozen turns or so of the top wingnut you should be stopping and pulling forward slightly on your hanger to make sure it is beginning to seat properly on the 'shoulders'. Urethra opening should line up like (l) with the top opening of the hanger. Make sure you are also pressing with a thumb and forefinger on the front and back of the top of your exposed penis while tightening. Once your hanger is as tight as you think you can get it (take your time, it should take a few minutes), hang with a few pounds for about 5 minutes. Remove the weight and crank down that top wingnut some more. I guarantee it will likely turn even more. You can't really "over tighten" a BIB hanger. Now, go to your normal hanging weight and go from there.

You did not answer if you saw red spots or bruising when you upped your weight?

When I would increase the weight luckily I haven't gotten any bruises or red spots. Today I followed your advice about having the hanger tighter. I really think this was the major problem besides not using some type of comfortable sweatshirt material.. It seems like I was just scared about tightening the bib down that much, it just felt uncomfortable, but today I tightened it alot more and it made hanging a bit easier, on my 4th set I just couldnt do the Max weight any more..

Thanks so much for sharing ur experience with all of us, especially me. It means alot and hopefully it'll lead to some serious gains.. Next week im going to try and up the weight, I'll report here what happens..

Cool man. I highly suggest trying the changes to your hanger settings and wrap I suggested. It's great for helping me get 'live' feedback on my suggestions. Again, you can't make your BIB hanger "too tight". It's uncomfortable at first when going tighter and tighter, but over time you get used to it.

Hopefully by the time I start hanging this theory will be validated as I'm interested In hanging but I'm doing a cracking manual at the moment. Can't wait to hang but it takes up sooo much time. Hopefully this will be a good solid hanging approach.

Lovemeat, the tightening described by Malehanger was the Biggest change to my hanging. I noticed you are at 23 threads showing, I agree with malehanger here about tightening er up. I am at almost 6 inches of girth and I only have about 10 threads showing and I tighten down untill my teeth are meshed together.
The only thing I have been doing a bit different is that I wwill where my hanger for a few minutes without weight and I too will tighten it down hard and then leave it for about 10 minutes then after I can take it off and wait a few minutes then hang a set and since I have squeezed my penis and removed all blood and lymph fluids I can easily put up my weight and go 20 minutes no problem. I have tried with the 5 lb method as well and it works great.
I also found that malehangers method of wrapping is far superior to using alot of wrap. its quicker and allows for the hanger to get the shoulders better as it is gripping inner penis better. I think too much wrap is just a way to promote slippage.

Howw do u only have 10 threads showing?? Jeez that looks crazy, I'll try it though. My wrap def. Needs work, I'm now sure that the wrap is even more important at the higher weights, but at least I got the tightening down ok. For now lol...

Also I think it is a real good idea to tighten the hanger w/o weights like you do. Really helped with comfort.

I'm going to have to give this a try. I have been hanging for about a month now, and will say that hanging about 5-6 is killing my time. I can go as heavy as 15 lbs.. first set for 20 minutes, second for 17, third set at 10 lb for 15 minutes.... then I'm dead .... I do warm up with rice sock, and end my session with some jelqing.

The least wrap possible really is the key. Your wrap is only to "compensate" for your girth to give the best fit to your hanger, and to protect your skin. The hanger needs to grip the internals of your penis. Too many men get into the mindset of thinking they only need to figure out how to get their hanger to work with whatever weight level they are using. That is the WRONG approach and will come back to haunt you if you use it. Chances are, a guy who uses that approach will eventually have to totally re-learn how to wrap and fit his hanger properly. He'll also likely see red spots and bruising when he increases his weight. Those are cause by poor hanger fit. A hanger should be as tight as possible from day one. That starts the penis adaptation process right away, vs having to back pedal when you start to get into the heavier weights.

@malehanger: Sorry for a little OT but have you also gained flaccid length from hanging, and if yes how much?

Of course! Roughly the same. A little over an inch. I'm around 5 to 5.5" flaccid depending on temperature.flaccid5_3_8.jpg

I find it easy to reach fatigue everyday... If I'm having trouble getting it, I will usually use a fulcrum. That way I don't have to steal from my weight bench again. Fulcrum work(at different angles) is highly beneficial for spot focusing stress on particular parts of my penis. I have found that by doing this I don't need to continually increase poundage.

Try it... you may find it works for you as well.......I'm STILL GAINING and I don't exceed 15lbs.(I have went up to 20lbs before..but not since learning fulcrum style kung fu)

Your hanging 15 lbs and you have been at it a month? You may want to be carefull. That is an extremely high amount of weight for one month in. Just sayin i dont want to see you on the sidelines too quickly!

With what hanger? I imagine different hangers grip differently and probably less effectively grasp the internals like they should. Based on that, weight that a guy can use will vary.

Exactly true...
...wraps and paddings used also play into the variance...

We have to keep in mind, not all hangers grip the penis the same way. Some "penetrate" more deeply when grasping the internals of the penis. Some barely grasp the internals at all, a vacuum hanger for example mainly pulls on the outside of the penis.
