Please share your experiences and all the information and knowledge you have. I have never hanged before, but in the future I am considering it...maybe.
How much have you gained with hanging and what's the time frame for the gains?

I just hang since 2,5months now btc and now i am at 6lbs 3-4×20min a day with about 10 min rest between the sets.
Dld told me i should hang at least 3×20 and because i read it often i cut off the pumping from my programm, just hang.
I am from 6,2 to over 7 Inches in this short time and the base girth is also .4 inches bigger, but the rest stayed the same.
I think in hanging i am a quick responder.
You can ask me if you want to know more. I am new to it but read many hours on this subject.
Amazing gains. Congratulations brother.
What device are you using to hang?

Oh yes. I have checked this device out before. Is it comfortable? You can have it attached for 20 minutes without any problems?

It's not easy at the beginning but after 1-2 weeks you will find a good technique
Okey. Like the LENGTHMASTER 3 I assume. It was really hard to get used to that device in the beginning.
I think the reason is that it takes so much time.
Yes, I gained quarter inch just little less than 3 months. The idea was to hang a low to moderate weight for longer periods of time and increase the time every 3 weeks to get up to hour of hanging max. Every 3 to 6 months increase the weight.
Example: Hang for 5 minutes take a short break and reattach the weight to reach maximum elongation every time you lower the weight.
I hope this helps.
Edit: I believe I started with 15 to 20 minutes of hanging in 5 minute intervals.

The secret is in the time spent hanging, not in the weight used. Extenders are the perfect example. They only use grams of force, but are able to constantly produce gains via tractive cell division. Same holds true for standard weight hanging with the difference being the weight used. When you use progressively heavier weight, the body adapts by thickening the shaft and base in response to counteract the force. So essentially, if you hang with progressively higher weight at the same time period intervals as an extender, it will get both thicker (mostly base) and longer at the same rate as an extender. To create base girth with very little length gains, heavy hang for short periods of time vs the hours an extender is worn.

It makes no sense to hang 20h with 2pounds when your goal is to stretch the ligaments.
So weight is also important
