I was looking to add some variety to my PE routine and I got the itch to do some hanging again. I had a fire a while back at my apartment building and had no weight plates and had no desire to buy any. I had bought a set of Bodylastics bands to exercise with and they are great! They are the best resistance bands made. I got the idea; why not use them for hanging? I attach the bands to my headboard and my hanger and lie back. The stretch is incredible! I hang while lying down, working on my computer, watching tv or whatever. They are very convenient and I actually like the stretch I get with them better than weight plates. I am looking forward to some great gains using them.

From amazon too
Just checked them out, pretty cool system and very similar to the [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/forum/showthread.php?64036-My-Best-Work-Ever-Penis-Enlargement-will-Be-Changed-Forever-gt-gt-Gain%20inches%20with%20SRT-Theory-and-Routine]SRT[/words] Bands we are creating for the [words=http://www.mattersofsize.com/forum/showthread.php?83577-Length-master-official-order-thread-now-shipping-06-16-2014!!!]LengthMaster[/words].

That's 21lbs in just bands there?
I wonder how many lbs of stretch you're getting.
Looks like an awesome stretch, but it wouldn't really be something I would do as there is no telling what stretch you're getting in terms of lbs. Unless of course you used a tension scale, but that still wouldn't work since they're tension based and moving an inch closer might make the stretch 3-5lbs lighter.
For instance, you would never know when to increase weight and @ what weight to increase it to, as you don't have a accurate idea of the weight/tension in the first place. Like w/ actual weights, you can move up 2-3lbs per however many weeks/months until the gains start/stop coming. A resistance band would seem to rely more on speculation.
Maybe I need to research resistance bands more. The only experience I have w/ them is almost getting slapped when a bracket slipped off a door @ a friends place.
I'm not sure @ what point of tension is rated for the lbs labeled per band. Does anyone know?
EDIT: Figured it out after a wee-bit of searching:

Wow! I didn't know what I was doing was that involved.
The bands I am using are different than the ones for the chart. The bodylastics have the lbs engraved on the metal clips. This is supposed to be the resistance at the fullest stretch. Having used both these and weights, I can tell you it is pretty damn close. I will use them like weights, adding resistance slowly and safely. They do give one helluva stretch.

I couldn't find a chart for the brand you were using, so used the only one I could find.
I could see it working, say adding a 3lb band each time you wanted to increase in weight, but it seems they're all over the place in terms of weight.
Anyways. It's thinking outside the box which is nice.
Just wanting to put out that you really only need the basic angles. SD/SO/SU/BTC w/ the varying fulcrum adaption depending on if that's what you wanted to do.
Even if someone wanted to hang sideways or @ a 90 degree, it's as simple as moving a chair right/left or tweaking the body just slightly.

This method should be easily adoptable. One can easily increase the tension by simply stretching further. Gotta love physics ^^
One way of measuring how much tension is being applied, is using one's legs to have a fixed distance (extended and pressed against a giving surface). This way one can change the bands while maintaining the distance constant and know approximately the amount of tension. Am I clear enough with the explanation? It's just a thought or idea to make this exercise more consistent.

Maybe I'm too stupid to understand all this, but it just seems like it would be very difficult to gauge how many lbs of pull you're getting unless you did measurements from your tip to the ground and had a chart to go off those measurements. Or unless you had a tension scale that mounted on the bands, then to the hanger hook.
From the chart I posted: Using the green band @ 30" you're getting 10lbs of force, but the green band is rated @ 10lbs and can actually get 17lbs @ max stretch (assuming 6' is max stretch).
Just seems like a hassle. Love the idea of not having to fuck w/ weights though. Plus it's much easier to kick aside if someone walks in on you and thinks you're about to kill yourself cause there's weights and a cord strung across the floor.
Well, I know it might be a tad complicated to understand what I roughly tried to explain but it's pretty easy really.
Your legs mark the distance, the bands create the tension at that given distance. Perhaps for me it's easy to see since I'm the one thinking about the idea lol Sorry! ^^

I think I understood it, maybe I'm just making it more complex than it really is.
For instance, say I was using the band the same way tef1 is. I have no indication of distance since I'm not standing (laying on bed), I would have to gauge by tug, visually, make sure I'm placed from band mounting distance the same length of my stretched out leg or actually measure my point a/b distance.
I get it in terms of standing though. If I was to plant 1 foot in the middle of the band I would be @ around 28" from penis tip to the ground (not including hanger hook or band clamps (which probably both equate to somewhere around 5-6")). I would then be looking @ around 8-10lbs using the green band and 48-52lbs w/ the yellow band (rated @ 70lbs).

this is a great idea for me as a traveler. if you want to know the exact amount of power. get a bagage weight like this Digital Portable Luggage Scale: What Is It? - Dave's World Travel and attach it to the hangerband now you know the weight used

Here is a video of one in use: http://www.mattersofsize.com/forum/phallosan-forte/84686-ykms-phallosan-forte-videos.html#post610671
Here is another video of youknowme using it on resistant bands: http://www.mattersofsize.com/forum/lengthmaster-forum/84230-lengthmaster-resistance-band-scale.html
I still wouldn't use them unless I couldn't find weights, but as stated for traveling. They do help w/ that purpose IMO.

Somebody was interested in this, and I never realized that it could be done
Yeah they asked about it yesterday and I found the original thread which I bumped.

@DLD @REDZULU2003 Yep that person would be me lol. I also saw a video of @Lightning using the length master with a resistance band attached at the base. Looking good so far, the only question I have about this is how do you know the exact tension you are getting from the stretch when using a resistance band, I am assuming you get the exact same stretch like when you are hanging but only difference is with hanging you know the weight being applied but when using the resistance band I don't think u can tell.
Hallelujah we found the creator himself! I couldn’t remember Bob so I’m sorry. I do remember you posting it I just cannot remember the name of the user so check my apologies. And thank you for clearing it all up.

Yes it does, it has a built-in hanger in the chamber portion of the Lengthmaster.

The black fabric material with the redhook attached to it looks like it could snap / break after a couple of weeks, is it replaceable?

Definitely wrap or use a sleeve when using the Lengthmaster. I recall few might have gone without using a wrap or sleeve, but overall the idea is to use a wrap when exercising with the Lengthmaster.

Great to see a first generation Malehanger in the original posts of this thread. I wonder what happened to the OP?
Yes wrap is for the most part necessary for most people. I know a few that do not wrap but I could not do it without wrapping. I suggest trying out different wrapping styles in the wrapping forum before your Lengthmaster comes in
