Crap... Will I still be able to gain length? Even through hanging?

There is a lot of conflicting information on this page. I just read that if you want to gain length you need to hang before doing advanced girth work. Well lately I have been doing bends and ulis. Honestly, since I've started PE I've gained more girth than length. I started doing more girth work because I read somewhere on here that if you want to gain length you need to create more smooth muscle, and that is created through girth work. I know, I was kind of confused by that. What I really want is length. I'm concerned now that I've gained more girth that I've fucked my chances of getting length gains. I still want to try hanging, I think that would benefit me most. Well, let me know what you guys think.

This is simple. If you want length, do length exercises!

Do not worry just get your hanger and start. These are theory's and general good practices but not set in stone. Most PE's dabble for a while before deciding on any particular strategy.
Best advice is to get yourself clued up to hang safely and post a daily log. This daily log will prove valuable for all sorts of reasons but mainly allowing more experienced hangers to advise on your routine if length gains remain elusive.

I'm going to see if I can find that post about doing girth work to increase smooth muscle. Which he said you need more of to gain length. But I guess I'll stop girth work for now.
