Thank you brother.Definitely

Definitely go every day if you're able to. The more you stretch, the more you grow.Thank you brother. Thinking of adding 30 mins of BTC stretches this week to get even more after it. Since it’s only 30 mins I think I’ll do it everyday.
It depends on the tension you use. I also only do 1-2 total hours of length work a day and I am seeing gains.Trying to stay disciplined and motivated to keep on extending, some days I can’t be bothered to get in more than 2+ hours a day. Though I will most likely just keep on extending till the day I die so I’m in no rush.
Also read somewhere on the internet about a danish guy whom only did like 2 hours of extending a day and still made some good gains that way so I guess and hope 2 hours is much better than nothing.
Hi, the Jes Extender actually got markings on the part that gets compressed when tension is applied, ranging from about 800- 2800 grams of tension. I almost always use the highest tension possible as in 2800(or was it 3000?)grams.It depends on the tension you use. I also only do 1-2 total hours of length work a day and I am seeing gains.
From what I know the devices such as the Male Edge or the Jes Extender don't have a tension scale do they? But they can be use from passive PE. The lengthmaster that you own can give you a high tension session, breaking down the collagen necessary for growth. You can then wear the extender the rest of the day for passive gains.
Even if you use a high tension method 2-3 times per week along with the extender then that will make the difference.
Really sorry to hear that brother. Have you tried compression hanging with the Lengthmaster? That wouldn't require any use of your arms other than putting the weight on.Hi, the Jes Extender actually got markings on the part that gets compressed when tension is applied, ranging from about 800- 2800 grams of tension.

Thank you for the tips, I most certainly would have used the LM3 if it had not been for my inflamed elbows and underarms. I wish I was just whining about it but they are seriously inflamed and me using the LM3 only seems to exacterbate those problems even further, unfortunately.
Hmm, I had actually forgotten that I can hang with the LM3. Have tried hanging in the past with a BiB hanger for over 5 months and got no gains at all from it. Maybe my luck will be better using the LM3, will definitely take hanging into consideration so thank you once again for the tip brother. Much appreciated.Really sorry to hear that brother.

You could try 5 minute sets like I do with a higher weight. I started off with 1kg and then moved up to 4kg which is where I am now. I usually do around 6-8 sets 5 minutes each.
Definitely try it brother. Just saw your post on being tired of extending. The noose extenders can be a pain, especially at higher tensions.Hmm, I had actually forgotten that I can hang with the LM3.

Sure got some weight plates I could use, if I choose to start hanging again. For now I will stick to a manual routine using my hands to stretch and doing the 5x5x3.Definitely try it brother.

The reason you probably never made any gains with the BIB is because of his outdated philosophy of using less weight in order to not strengthen the suspensory ligament as he thought this would cause gains to be harder to achieve. This however was untrue as strength adaptations are inevitable.
I'm sure you have some weighted bags at home or some tools that you know the weight of that you can use for hanging. I'd start with 1kg and work your way up. I've personally never had to do more than 4kg to get that ache at the base but test the waters and see what works for you.
Feel free to ask me any questions about it as it's something I do on the daily.
There's a million ways to skin a cat brother!Sure got some weight plates I could use, if I choose to start hanging again. For now I will stick to a manual routine using my hands to stretch and doing the 5x5x3.
Heck, maybe I’ll just end up doing some hanging on top of it all as a supplement to my routine. Will definitely be asking some questions if I choose to test it out. And thank you again for all the tips brother. Good to know there’s alternatives when it comes to doing PE.
That is animal abuse, and that is cruel.There's a million ways to skin a cat brother!
