Starting Hanging (no fatigue): More weight? More series, same weight?

[diegoc Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close diegoc]

Hey everyone!

Last week I finished JP's 90 day beginner Routine. This are my gains from it:

• 0.39'' gains in flacid length
• 0.47'' gains in flacid girth
• 0.23'' gains in erect length
• 0.12'' gains in erect girth

I've just started hanging (with a sock hanger). I'm gonna take it slow because I think is the wise thing to do. I have bought plates in kilos. Right now I'm doing 3 sets of 1kilo (around 2.2 pounds) @ 20m each (10m of rest between sets). I know I should ride the fatigue and right now, with 1kilo, I'm not feeling it. I read about reaching your maximium weight in the first two series, then, lowering it.

Should I add more weight and keep with 3 series? Should I add more series with the same weight (I have no problems right now to get up to 6 series) to see if I get fatigue?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Cheers!

You're on a good path by doing the 3 ea- 20 minute sessions. This is a good "middle of the road" approach in which you'll be able to use respectable weights without having to spend more than 1 hour hanging.

PLEASE make sure that this is something that you work up TO, and that you have adequate padding for your penis; that you ensure that you only tie on the hanger as tight as it needs to be to stay on; and that you constantly check your glans to ensure you're not cutting off circulation. During your breaks make sure to massage blood into your penis.

Listen to big al. I really starting feeling fatigue near 7.5 -10 pounds. The lower weight is SO!!!! Important to get used to hanging. Please take your time and follow the routine. Great gains by the JP program. Good luck!

Thanks Big Al.

I'll keep going step by step. I would like you to make somethings clear for me please.

First of all, my idea was to do the routine I saw in one post:

• Week 1: 3x sets 1 kilo (2.2 lbs) @ 20m each
• Week 2: 4x sets 1 kilo @ 20m each
• Week 3: 5x sets 1 kilo @ 20m each
• Week 4: 6x sets 1 kilo @ 20m each
• Week 5: 6x sets 2 kilo (4.4 lbs) @ 20m each
• Week 6: 6x sets 2.5 kilo (5.5 lbs) @ 20m each

And just continue to add weight up to 5 kilos (11 pounds).

So:

• Does that routine look okay? I wonder because there is no disc of 0.5 kg and I have to go from 1k to 2k. I guess there is no problem because I would have already conditioned my penis to hanging during the prior 4 weeks.
• Even though I'm not riding the fatigue right now, should I stick to my routine and don't worry about that? I guess, eventually, I will be riding the fatigue when I get to more sets or more weight.

Cheers

If you want 500g just fill a 500ml bottle with water

You're welcome

IMO, you should not add 1 set each session but to try to build up to 3 sets as I recommended earlier. The key to making consistent, regular gains is in small but regular increases. You can go to most any drugstore or sporting goods outlet and find fishing weights ranging from less than 1 gram to several ounces. Hardware stores also have washers of various weights that you can use in lieu of standard weight discs.

For your first few sessions you should err on the side of caution. Once you find the right combination of weight and time, you can work closer to your maximum tolerances. I would also recommend that you find a place for stamina work in your routine, as that should help foster quicker gains and speed recuperation too.

Yeah, that's why that routine has 3 sets the first week and then going up one set each subsequent week (up to 6 hours per session to get up to 10 hours hanging a week) keeping the same weight. I heard is the way to go.

Maybe you think I should keep on 3 sets each week but do increments on the weight? What do you thingk Big Al?

I guess I'll do Kegels. I don't want to edge/ballon any more because it's like masturbation without the release, no good. To much dopamina levels. I stopped masturbation and porn so I don't want to do exercise where I'm getting excited.

Any recommendations of how many sets/reps of kegels I should do?

Cheers!

When you can do 3 sets of 20 minutes with a particular weight, you should increase the weight 5-10% (depending on how much weight you're already using), drop the time a bit, and start the process over (working toward 3- 20 minute sets).

If you wish to follow a different type of routine that requires lengthier hang times, then your focus will need to be on mastering duration. Some very advanced trainees have been able to hang many hours per day with good results.

If you're engaging in regular sexual activity, then you can forgo doing any edging type movements. Apart from that there's no real effective substitute for it. There is a beneficial release of hormones when you ejaculate.

I'd recommend one set of kegels performed after your girth work for up to 50 holds for 5 second each should be a good start. I suggest contracting just hard enough to complete the rep- until you can do 50, 5 second erect kegels. Once you can do that, you can start experimenting with harder contractions.

Yes.. don't increase in pounds (weights) too fast. You may harm yourself.

I'm doing 3 sets of 20 min with 2.2 pounds and it's sooooooo easy. I'm pretty sure I was getting more work done with JP90 days beginner routine (my penis was bigger after this for example).

The problem is that I have plates of 0.5K, 1K, 2K... there is no way I can increase (with plates) at a rate of 5% to 10%

No, I'm not having regular sex. But edging builds your body with dopamine, and, because I don't want to ejaculate (that's why I stopped masturbating) it's even worse because there is no release. That's why I stopped edging/ballooning. Do you think it would really affect gains not doing so?

Got lost here. Hanging is a length exercise. Why are you talking about girth work?

Cheers and very much appreciated all this help!

Just my opinion, but if you were gaining with the JP90 why change your routine? Keep going with it until you plateau, then consider hanging.

In my experience, and others, it is important to do light girth work when hanging or your EQ will tank.

He may be referring to this. Are you familiar with the TGC Theory?

I started hanging with 5lbs and worked up to 10lbs within a month or so. Any less than 5lbs may just be a complete waste of time..not that I'm trying to sound harsh or negative. ..but, I assume that you want gains as quickly as possible(which is still a slow process, even with Hanging). I recommend hanging as much weight as you can stand(where discomfort almost reaches pain) since 15-20 minutes will always be the safe duration. Sure, you could always do more sets,,,but WHY, It would just be prolonged futility if the weight isn't causing "controlled damage" to the internal structures. The "controlled damage" is what creates more collagen to be produced(size increase).

Use something other than what you have available. An example- you can by lead fishing weights of all weights.

Training is supposed to prepare you for a particular activity. Despite the common want of not ejaculation (for whatever reason) how do you expect to be able to master that part of yourself and to strengthen all of the organs involved in you do not partake in that particular activity.

Most trainees do both length and girth work in one session

Water bottles are the easiest way if you don't have weights.

1L = 1kg
500ml = 500g
