So Is the jump of 1.25lbs part of the suggested weight progression routine you're following or is that due to the actual weights you have physically to use? Is it possible to go up by say 0.75lbs, adjust for a session or 2 and then up again? Or am i missing the importance of that particular weight increase? Just ask out of curiosity as I haven't really educated myself on hanging but find your thread/progress interesting ☺

Just ask out of curiosity as I haven't really educated myself on hanging but find your thread/progress interesting ☺

I have the following weights for hanging: .5 lbs, 1.25 lbs, 2.5 lbs, 5 lbs, 10 lbs and more. I am not saying I only have one of each of those, because some of them like the 5 lbs I have 4 of and can buy more. The .5 lbs weight that I have is actually a fishing weight whereas the other are all weights used for weight lifting.

To be honest I progress in weight however I feel like because I have a decent amount of experience hanging (I hung for 9 consecutive months once a couple of years ago). The recommendation that Bib gives i to increase by no more than 15% of the total weight each week. While that is good for beginners, I find it more appealing to listen to my penis. Sometimes I'll hang the same weight for 2 weeks, and then jump by 1.25 lbs. Sometimes I will go a week and increase by .5 lbs. It just depends on the feedback I am feeling from my body.

Yesterday when I posted I didn't attach very well which is why I felt more pressure than usual. I was wrong, it wasn't the weight that was the problem, it was the improper attachment. The thing with hanging is, and I say this having probably hung over 1000 sets over the years, you have to know how to properly wrap and attach. Since I have so much experience I attach very well maybe 19 times out of 20, but every once in a while I attach improperly and it leads to a bit too much pressure (and sometimes I have to take it off and reattach). Something as small as not tightening enough can cause the weight to slip and put too much pressure on the glans (which is what happened to me last night), and there are other issues. Again, in time you get used to attaching and it becomes easy.

I'm really excited to see how far I can take things this year in terms of my overall body image, but particularly with my PE.

If I can gain just 1.25 inches in 12 months that will put me at a solid 9 inches BPEL, which would blow my mind and is the first of my long term goals. Let's make it happen!

what are your goals with this (outside of p.e.)?
 
jordey;630469 said:
what are your goals with this (outside of p.e.)?

Right now I am 300 lbs even at about 6'1.5''. I want to be somewhere in the range of 200-210 lbs. Once I reach something like 205 lbs, I will then focus on reducing as much body fat as I can and adding as much muscle so that while I stay the same weight (205), my body composition changes.

I used to have a really fit looking body and would get a lot of attention from women without even trying, and during this year I want to get as close to that as possible. After that I will try to progress past where I was before and look even better. If it isn't obvious from these comments my main concern is body building, and I only focus on developing my strength in order to make my body look better. I don't train for strength just for the sake of getting stronger.

I used to lift weights in order to look better, but since I changed to body weight exercises I felt like they are better for [words=http://fleshlight.sjv.io/c/348327/302851/4702]stamina[/words] and flexibility. I still am not sure which one I will do (weights or body weight), but for the time being since I am so out of shape I am just going to focus on cardio. At this point I just want to lose massive amounts of fat and overall weight and I don't care if I lose a good amount of muscle (even though I doubt I will). When I get down below at least 260 lbs then I will begin the strength component of things.

I should also mention that I was a personal trainer a while ago, so I am aware that doing strength exercises helps to burn fat faster, but I am going to put that off for a while regardless.

if youve been fit before it shouldnt be too hard to get down to a good weight, so good luck!

just out of curiosity, how did you manage to let yourself get up to 300lb? i dont mean this in any offensive way, ive just seen fit people/ people with good bodies do it in the past, and as someone with a fairly good body myself (although i train for powerlifting), i could never see myself getting off track like that. it would be interesting to hear how it happened with you, and cold potentially be something i look out for in the future

but anyway yeah, you can definitely do it. if you do it properly this could be a pretty amazing year for you. i went from 130lbs to 205lbs (at similar bf%) within a couple of years naturally. you can definitely drop the weight! if you drop down to 200 and build back some muscle, aswell as gain from p.e, you could be looking at like a 2-3 inch gain in visible length, with a much better body to go with it

I will say one thing before anything else, even though I am 300 lbs I do not look like I am as my body is pretty dense. I certainly do look a bit fat, but not as much as you would expect for someone at my weight.

So I have gone up and down in weight about 2-3 times in my lifetime, and when I say gone up and down I mean at least 50 lbs up or down. The latest time went something like this. I am currently 26. When I was 22 I had developed that really hot body that women liked a lot that I mentioned. I did that by sticking to a body building schedule of 7 days on no days off. Each day I did at lest 16 sets and my routine was:

Monday- Chest
Tuesday- Legs
Wednesday- Triceps
Thursday- Back
Friday- Shoulders
Saturday- Biceps
Sunday- Abs

This routine worked pretty well for me in terms of making my body look good, but as you probably already know it wasn't so great if you are looking to make strength gains as it is a bit too much.

So when I was 23 I moved to NYC and by chance at the gym I went to I ran into guys that practice what they call calisthenics, but it is really more like a combination of body weight exercises and gymnastics. You can find similar guys on youtube by checking for a guy named "hannibal" or "barstars" (not sure of the spelling). Shortly after that I dropped lifting weights and started doing calisthenics, which took my workouts from about 1 hour and 15 minutes a day to 30-45 minutes a day.

After that I got in trouble with the law a bit, and that caused me to go into a bit of depression. I am a depression eater, and at that point I stopped my strict diet and got a bit sloppy with how much and the types of food I would eat, and that combined with my reduced workout bumped my weight up to 240-250 lbs.

I stayed at that weight for a while, maybe a year or two, and after getting into a bit of trouble again I was diagnosed as bipolar at the same time that another huge negative event took place in my life that led to more depression. Then I got on bipolar medication that caused me to sleep much more than I used to causing me to miss workouts and eventually stop exercising altogether. At the same time the depression led me to drop my diet entirely and I began overeating daily and also eating junk food at least a couple of times a week.

So at this point I haven't exercised more than a handful of times in over a year and a half and I was eating poorly for much of that time as well, and that made me jump from 240-250 up to 307 at my highest.

Sorry if the grammar or sentence structure in that explanation sucked, but I was typing really fast and haven't looked over it, but I hope you get the point. I have started exercising again and dieting and have come down from my high of 307 lbs about two weeks ago to 301 lbs tonight.
 
Also one other thing that you mentioned that I didn't speak to. My current NBPEL, which I haven't really written on this thread, is somewhere between 5.5 inches and 6 inches max on a good day. My BPEL is 7.75. That is roughly 2 inches of fat pad give or take. If I lose 1.5 inches of that fat pad and add at least 1.25 inches to bring me to my minimum goal of 9 inches BPEL by 2016, that very modest view of what I can accomplish is already nearly a 3 inch visual difference. Can you imagine if I lose 1.75 inches of fat pad and gain 2 inches lol?

yeah i didnt want to mention it incase it was a sensitive subject, but i had a feeling it was depression that caused the weight gain. happens far too often, i believe it is also the same with DLD. are you still battling the depression now or have you jumped over that hurdle and have it under control? although i dont personally get (severely) depressed, I understand it is a complex condition and can be difficult to get things balanced and under control.

good news is that if youve had a good body before you can get it back again! is there usually a trigger for your depression which snowballs, or can it be random aswell?

Yes, my depression this year (being 9 fucking months long now) has caused me to gain 85 pounds of pure fat. I am now working with my psychiatrist to go on a new medication regiment that will hopefully get me out of this depression and help me drop this weight. If depression was not enough, I have to also gain fat and of course it all goes to my belly and fat pad so I lose so much visual length. Depression sucks!

I am over the depression and more importantly I finally have the mania under control because of the pills I am taking. What would happen in the past is I would go into a manic state and that would cause me to end up in some sort of trouble, then the negative effects of being in trouble would get me really depressed, and that is when I would quit my workout routine and start eating poorly.

These pills have put me in a really good place, but they make me sleepy and that is the last thing I am battling. As long as I get up early in the morning and get my workouts in I should be fine.

Thanks for the questions and comments!

PE Karma is VERY REAL!
 
So I have finally hit a weight that I feel will take a long time before I get used to and can move up from, 18.75 lbs. It doesn't sound like much, but at this point I feel that I will have to slow down to get used to this weight, and begin only increasing by about .5 lbs at a time.

I have also had some problems with slippage with this weight, meaning the hanger slides down over my glans after I thought I securely fastened it. This all could be the result of it being only my first time using this weight, and I may feel much better about it after a day or two of getting used to it. If that is the case then ignore what I have written here, but if not I have finally reached a useful weight.

Edit: 15 minutes into my set the slippage got so bad that I had to stop, entirely take off the hanger and wrap, and redo everything. The second time I attached I did so much closer to the base which doesn't seem to stretch the entire penis as much but gives a decent pull on the ligs.

Yes, but the closer to the base you connect the more internal penis you will stretch out.

Gaining in length will happen fastest when you keep 3 important factors in the routine. The first would be Ligamental, which is done through basic high grip stretches. Tunica Expansion and Elongation, which is done through erect girth work and erect stretching. And finally, Internal Penis, which is done through Expressive Stretching. If all 3 of these areas are consistently trained your length gains will come with much more speed.
 
jordey;631552 said:

I hope so. I am on a very strict diet where my calorie intake is incredibly low. If I didn't consume sodas and sugary drinks my daily calorie intake would probably be between 1000-1500, and that is considering I am 6'2'' and nearly 300 lbs a good deal of which is muscle. I know it sounds a bit unhealthy, but before anyone comments that I am not eating enough I will say that I have lost upwards of 50 lbs before and worked as a trainer myself, so I am keeping a careful eye as to what is going on.

To answer your questions, yes and yes. I have a digital scale at home that gives my weight down to the tenth of a pound (such as 299.6 lbs). I am very OCD about weighing myself (not literally, but sort of). I weigh myself in the morning in my pajamas, I weigh myself after I take a piss or shit, I weigh myself after I eat, etc. The weight that I post in this thread, however, is every night wearing the same clothes after I have consumed all my foods and liquids for the day and am preparing to go to sleep. I even try to stand on the scale in the same exact way.

In other news I believe I got a particularly good attachment going tonight so the weight I am currently using feels fine and I assume I will move up within a week or two at most.

Yes, and the 4rd type of gain -making BPEL into NBPEL (losing fat). Since he is now losing fat- I can see some really good gains coming his way. :)

Thanks to both of you for your support! I have big goals for 2015 and I am going to stick to some of the most important ones, which are gaining size through PE and losing weight.

Weight: 298 (I didn't work out for the past two days, ate a bit of dinner when I wasn't supposed to, and drank a lot of juice before weighing, so that explains the slight increase. I will become disciplined again over the next few days and hopefully break 294 by the end of this week).

That is what is is all about Discipline. I was just talking to a group about this very subject and how many people do not make make their dreams come true because they have no discipline. My Mother taught me at a very young age "All things in moderation" This remains with me today and I have learned to become very disciplined in all areas of my life. My gains can be explained through that one very important word: Disciplined!

Indeed it is. Moderation allows us to enjoy all things and Discipline helps us avoid addictions.
 
Thanks for the support guys. I have been dealing with a lot of stress lately and for that reason I have taken to over eating and missing workouts again. Tomorrow I will start again with my normal routine and hopefully keep pushing forward in my life.

I will only be weighing myself once a week on Sundays from now on. Just like with penis enlargement weighing myself too frequently tends to make me stressed out.

thats a much better idea. weight can vary so much from day to day for many reasons (mainly hydration levels) so once a week should be more accurate for measuring progress. i know you mentioned previously that you do quite extreme dieting, however if you are dealing with a lot of stress lately and finding it hard to stick to things, could it possibly be more beneficial in the long run to have a slightly more relaxed approach?

Thanks DLD. This forum has become on of the biggest factors leading to my discipline at this point in life because it forces me to take a look at what I have accomplished on a daily basis.

Well I would take it slower if I had the option, but I have two big reasons to lose at least (and I truly mean at least, hopefully much more) 50 pounds by six months from now. I won't name the reasons, but they are both pretty big deals. I am also at a point right now where I am unable to spend too much time in the gym both for time reasons and because I am not physically as capable as I used to be. For that reason I have to use my diet more to my advantage to melt off this first 50 lbs.

So I upped the weight tonight and boy does it give a great stretch. I also attached pretty well so I have no pain or discomfort. There are about 17 days until I do my personal measurement so I will probably go up a bit more in that time and will be able to confirm whether the hardcore hanging method does work or not. Tbh even if I gain 1/8 inch by the 10th of February that will be enough for me to test out hardcore hanging for another month to see how the progress goes. If I gain less then 1/8th then I will probably switch back to my 2 hour a day routine.

20 lbs !!! My man!!!
 
Breaking into 20 is a very big deal and wonderful milestone. Congratulations my brother! And now knowing that you will be measuring and 17 days I'm extra excited. You deserve a gainand I am completely rooting for you!

Thanks man. 20 lbs is a great feeling, but I expect to be a bit higher in weight by the middle of February.

As always thanks for your support DLD. I did an unofficial measurement last night and it looks like I have gained a bit, but I will not officially measure until February 10th. At this point it looks like I will continue hardcore hanging because even though the weight is high I am able to handle it since it is only for 30 minutes at a time.

That is great news! An early congratulations to you and I hope on the official measuring day you have even greater news.

Thanks guys! I am very excited to fully confirm that this hardcore hanging strategy does in fact work because this would truly allow me to continue hanging well into the future. I am fully willing to go back to 2 hours a day if neessary, but if hardcore hanging works it would help me out a lot with many of my PE and personal goals.

Measurement day is getting closer and closer!

I dropped 5 pound over this past week! Now 60 more to go:(

I do find it very surprising how you lose wight. 5 pounds/week is definitely a lot! Are you exercising, what is your diet like? :) Cause most people who drop weight so fast do it in a very unhealthy manner (like DRASTICALLY reducing calorie intake).

Actually, it was due to eating more food. Over my last 9 months of severe depression I was only eating one meal a day at night and it was mainly fattening take out food. This put my body into a starvation mode and everything I ate would turn to fat. Right now I am eating 3 meals a day, mostly vegetables and fresh fruit and a little bit of meat so this has jump started my metabolism and I believe thats how I lost the 5 pounds. I need to lose another 60 to get to where I will be happy. I am keeping excellent records on my physical and mental health so if I do drop the weight like I did for the past 14 years I can let the Brotherhood know how I did it.

hope you loose that extra weight D thank god im in perfect shape haha

I will it's just going to take some effort and some changes in my life. I am learning a lot about myself and I'm making many incredible changes and how I live. I am now on a good diet and I'm getting some exercise in so I think that the weight will come off just like it has every year. I really need this because it's going to help me feel so much better about myself.
