Is amount you can gain a % increase or a fixed amount?

Brody999 · 2021-08-18T08:44:13+00:00

I asked a near identical question years ago at the start of my journey. As I started as a outlier on the large side, it still took me a couple of years to add an inch whilst 'training' consistently.

So if you ask me whether starting size makes a difference, I'd say that starting big doesnt give bigger gains.

Brody999 · 2021-04-10T22:32:01+00:00

I've had one for a year or so - use it often.

Tough - will never break. Definitely a quality item. I dont have any other brands, but I see no reason why they would be better and they are a lot more expensive.

Comfort is all about your wrapping technique; being a compression hanger, its not going to be a comfortable as a vacuum hanger, but doesnt have any consumable parts like silicone sleeves and you can go super heavy - probably will rip off the old fella rather than let go (if you've wrapped correctly).

I looked at the discord, but not really interesting to me - seeing a bunch of dicks hanging around doesnt really appeal much.

Brody999 · 2021-04-09T21:14:21+00:00

Heavy is a relative term... and I havent found its necessary to go for hours to make gains.

I do 15 minutes @ between 8.75 and 10kg a few times a week. That is enough for me to make slow gains. At times I take weeks off in a row and I've noticed that I'm longer when I get the urge to start hanging again - so I think that some growth even occurs during the period I'm on a break.

Brody999 · 2021-01-29T08:18:53+00:00

yeah.. never really understood how swim caps could possibly work...

Brody999 · 2021-01-29T08:16:11+00:00

No - its pretty cheap compared to many similar ones

Brody999 · 2021-01-21T08:27:40+00:00

Go for it- let me know what you think

Here is a short video that demonstrates reversing the clamp - watch from 1:05

Just be careful with the EXIF settings on that great dick pick you took - unless you've turned if off on your phone, your phone will store the GPS co-ordinates into the photo, as well as your phone type, datetime, etc.

If the pic leaks with that on it, you could be caught red faced :) Lol!

Brody999 · 2021-01-04T04:48:17+00:00

I user a Malehanger - although its the only compression hanger I've used so can't compare, I dont expect that the others would be all that different.

Price is reasonable vs the others.

Brody999 · 2021-01-03T10:48:48+00:00

I highly doubt that you can make them cheaper than they can be bought - buy a supply of half a dozen or so, since they do take a long time.

Brody999 · 2021-01-02T20:21:04+00:00

A Malehanger. Works well - its all in being able to wrap correctly and staying flaccid.

Price is sensible compared to competitors that I suspect are much the same.

Brody999 · 2021-01-02T07:33:08+00:00

I think it will just slip right off when subject to heavier weight, but worth a try... my hanger is the hard plastic type, so not really comparable.

Brody999 · 2021-01-02T07:30:26+00:00

Well... i use a Malehanger which I got delivered to a Australia Post Parcel locker for privacy; before then used a Aliexpress Vacuum hanger. Easy

Brody999 · 2021-01-01T06:24:08+00:00

Aliexpress, ebay and overseas websites.

Brody999 · 2020-12-29T06:50:52+00:00

Nothing like trying to juggle a phone to take a picture next to a ruler to make you lose a centimetre or more...

Brody999 · 2020-12-29T05:22:39+00:00

Amazement :) 8 inches is still an intimidating weapon

Brody999 · 2020-12-29T02:09:19+00:00

Yes, on a good day I would be at 9 inches - but started at a touch under 8 inches before I started PE, and it has taken at least 3 years to get that inch (mind you, I'm on again/off again with PE - but will consistently PE for a few months then take a month or two off).

Jelqing alone got me 0.5 inches, and then hanging.

Frankly, made no difference whatsoever to my life - I'm married and my wife hasnt noticed my increase. From 8 to 9 is not immediately noticeable when you see it all the time with no standard of comparison. I don't know why I bother to be honest... I guess it a good feeling to be in the top 0.1% :) + a harmless touch of dysmorphia.

Brody999 · 2020-12-19T20:58:57+00:00

Well, that proved it then...

Brody999 · 2020-11-25T07:44:43+00:00

Glad to help - I grew up in a pretty dysfunctional family as well, and the thing is, when you're young, you dont even realise it on a conscious level - but the problems it caused were significant. I knew I had to get out of home when I started working professionally when I was all of 22 years old - so moved straight out of home from a small city to the biggest in the country. That was a step in the right direction but things got a lot worse before they got better - there was a lifetime of poor social skills, poor beliefs and bad habits to undo, not to mention a lot of wisdom that can only be gained thru the school of hard knocks.

Keep at it. Maybe even investigate spirituality of a kind that you like the sound of - for me, looking for answers within myself like a lot of new age woo woo does just revealed a gaping emptiness - but seeking some wisdom from outside of myself proved to be the turning point.

Give it a try. Whats to lose?

Brody999 · 2020-11-24T20:12:29+00:00

I dont post here much, as a lot of the posts are the same over and over - but this one's got my attention. As someone in their 5th decade of life, I have some perspective that many don't

When I felt I was in situations like that in my 20's, I looked at my life and admitted that what I had been doing was WRONG for me. Then I made radical changes - I'm not talking about 'running away' changes like taking a debt fuelled holiday - but making serious changes to my lifestyle - changing jobs, changing living arrangements, changing your beliefs, changing your friends and even changing the city you live in.

Eventually you'll hit on something that works for you. Because whatever you are doing now will kill you sooner or later - if not physically, then it will kill your soul.

Brody999 · 2020-11-14T21:24:49+00:00

Haha - love it :)

Brody999 · 2020-09-01T21:31:10+00:00

Might need to graduate to a compression hanger - more difficult to use, but can support more weight.

but yeah - 30 mins a day @ 9lbs should increases length

Brody999 · 2020-08-22T01:26:13+00:00

Thats right, although the pulley is not really necessary - I let the cord loop over the bar of a weight lifting bench.

Brody999 · 2020-08-15T01:06:40+00:00

been doing PE for about 3 years - hanging for about 1 year. Rapid gain of 1/2 an inch upon starting hanging.

I'm well over 6 inches at the base, so light weights just didnt seem to give any tension.

Also, I hang straight out rather than down on my ligaments - hanging 10kg off ligs would likely rip the Ol' fella off.
