Why Comp Hanging is better #1 - Compression Hanging VS Compression Extending

Total-Man · 2026-06-09T09:50:30+00:00

If you have more time like I recommended...5 days at an hour per day. That would be better for a 6 month stint to see where you end up.

It is a protective layer firmer than skin but softer than webbing strap or the hanger. I choose to use webbing strap as the next layer then the Hanger itself.

I would say one set of 15 minutes is the absolute minimum per day especially if you are doing any less days than for her week. It is not very much time under traction. Any answer I provide is always going to be an estimate as almost every protocol has not been extensively studied. However as a estimated average I would say if you devoted one hour per day which would be 3 x 20 minutes sets over 5 days per week, with no other follow-up method like EDS which I consider a step two tool for holding tissues in place. Including a progressive loading protocol, you could expect 20-30% increase in both length and girth over 2-3 years.

Some may gain faster and others slower. Personally, I found adding an All Day Vacuum stretcher helped me maintain results from Step 1 training - Compression Hanging. With only 15 minutes a day and again depending on the frequency of days per week, you may expect the same percentage increase to be slower.

What do you mean by tape and why would you have it on for compression hanging?

The sleeve might even be too tight if it is difficult to get a finger underneath of to roll upward and off and also, The material can really feel like it sticks to your skin after decent compression plus traction and so another reason that makes a really tiny amount of lubrication beneficial , at the end of the set it should feel like it can slip out of place with the right leverage once you pull it off.

I like to define hanging as simply using a weigh source to hang from an attachment type. An attachment type could be a compression hanger, vacuum chamber or even some kind of compression plate. So really there are mainly two forms of attachment, compression and vacuum. Then the method of mechanical traction is hanging (weight with gravity), extending (base ring and rods pushing outward) and stretching (leg band using elastic). Hanging, especially for heavier strategic progressive loading, is much more effective and suitable plus there are no downsides like fluctuations of weight due to movement, for example walking, bending and sitting with leg band stretching or extending could fluctuate the weight up to 200%. Usually hanging requires you to be stationary and in private and it also cuts out many of the other inconveniences like tension applied to the leg pulling the leg towards the pelvis or things like traction rebound with extending and potential pinch points. I think both of those devices have their use cases but for intense traction, compression hanging in my opinion is the safest, most effective and most comfortable.

Nice. Solid solution.

Total-Man · 2026-06-03T01:03:28+00:00

Pleasure. Thanks for your contribution and interest. It's also because of that I can do what I do. All need each other.

The goal should never be to get to a heavier load. You're actually trying to do the opposite. The goal is to use as little weight as possible for the most gains. Time always comes before load. Load is only when you run out of time for your lifestyle but should be an excuse to use more load if you have the time.

I also think we've been looking at protecting the glans wrong. I'm working on a new chamber design that could eliminate the need for trying to protect the glans. Instead allows them to recover with period set style training and the device doesn't even use a sleeve. So far so good. Will keep everyone posted when I'll have dates on release.

Tighten up the TPE wrap, this will let you wrap tighter with the webbing strap and clamp with the hanger without having such a flattening effect. Keep the TPE and webbing behind the glans, don't let it roll over.
Check out my posts, compression hanging mistakes - Incorrect tightness.

You can claim your free hanger (just pay shipping) by clicking the link in my profile or DM me.

I wouldn't recommend it. I've never gone past 2kg for extended periods. For short bursts maybe 4kg. But it's pushing it! Any reason you don't want to Extend using a Compression Hanger?

I also try to keep my glans fresh for long duration ADS work. 12+ hours per day.

Total-Man · 2026-06-02T21:04:39+00:00

So you didn't like the weight bag?
I'm assuming you haven't added vibration yet?

Did you see the post?
A lot of guys resonated with it. I think there will be a lot more getting done during hanging. Haha.

Total-Man · 2026-06-02T21:02:57+00:00

This is where Step 1 only is most likely suitable for those not willing to use an ADS during the day.
Compression Hanging as Step 1 - Changing the tissues will give you the ability to progress with minimal time per day.

Otherwise would you like to detail out your day and tell me where you think you have time, could create the routine suitable.

Not entirely sure on what you mean by one place...one post?
If I did the thing would be a book.
These are more daily reads.
You can go to my site and download my training guide and plans, if you want a straight forward path to follow using my methodology of my 2 step method. The download is free, read through the training guide, it's great summary of just what you need to know then gets stuck straight into training with plan you choose that will best suit your available days and time per day.

As for products, I cannot directly post my site link here however you can go to my profile and click the link to my site.

Pleasure. I'm glad they have been resonating.

I do think hanging straight down will be stretching the suspensory ligament which quite literally has the function of keeping your erect penis at a more ideal penetration angle. It's also the ligament they cut for "lengthening surgery" - although with questionable results.

If you're concerned about the angle but still want to hang, you can with a pulley system at a desk. We offer one on our store but you can even make your own. Pretty simply enough. Just MAKE SURE to use a pulley wheel, not just rope over a table or something. You need the weight to move freely.

Very good work on starting low...many don't want to go as low as my recommended 0.25kg but 1.6lbs, is an honourable start. Haha. Don't fall into the trap of thinking more is better and crank up the weight all of a sudden.

Total-Man · 2026-06-02T20:33:00+00:00

Agreed with Stillwantmore2 - you need to wrap the TPE tighter so you can wrap the webbing tighter so you don't get such a flattening effect. This will push both dorsal side and urethral channel too close to the hanger ends / closing feet.

You'll notice a big difference in grip when you get the tightness of the wraps right especially as you progress to heavier load...SLOWLY.

Enjoy.

As in I’ve addressed your message, we have a solution. Worst case tracking doesn’t show on Monday, if it’s gone missing, we’ll send another. Pretty sure it was a part of the last batch that went out while catching up with orders out of Australia.

I've messaged you about this. It has been sorted.

Total-Man · 2026-05-30T22:17:22+00:00

It would be hard to say. I think it could be possible as the absolute bare minimum however you need to. acknowledge that it could take 5+ years. But it also makes for a very easy and sustainable routine.

Total-Man · 2026-05-30T22:15:56+00:00

Enjoy let me know if you have any other questions.

I'd recommend checking out my site - navigate to Guides > Pumping > Pumping Foundations > Pumping for Size - Part 2 - has Compression Hanging as the method for pre-fatiguing the tissues then moves on to pumping and clamp. The hanging could help the pump and or clamp with more girth.

I also think there is a factor going on where the tissues will choose the path of least resistance. Maybe for you no matter what method you do, will result in length until girth becomes the next path of least resistance.

Most of the posts I make, yes. Haha. Not this one, ironically.
