What size pump for my mushroom head?

Perfect. Did a couple sets yesterday to acclimate… I could definetly tell a little more fatigue/soreness in the lugs toward the base/sides than with manual stretching- take this to be what I am after. As far as the wrapping- “effective” means secure/snug enough where you feel the stretch internal and mot just skin/foreskin?
Correct. Effective wrapping is about keeping the entire penis elongated to the maximum length close to or exceed the routine post length, without any numbness, color changes, or pain. There is no loss for keeping the penis elongated at 90% either. 100% is welcomed, but take what you can get with the most comfortable wrapping.
 
through about 4-5 light hanging sessions (2lb x 20 min), not that i expect miracles, but one thing i noticed..

in watching experienced PE'ers videos, i was always amazed at how elastic their stretching was- several inches from flaccid was not uncommon. i always struggled with a very tight/non-elastic stretch 0.5-1" at best. In just a few light, short sessions, it seems like elasticity has really improved. Could this be the breakthrough i have needed to see gains? Pondering or just wishful thinking??

YES! Actually, this is why we encouraged light hanging, when the brothers want that approach, at first after light stretching exercises. Never start heavy. Always start light. DLD did mention start with the 1lb at first, and slowly, ever slowly, increase. What you have discovered is what was found the most effective since the days of old. Low tension and long period allows the tissues to not detect the micro traumas it fears encountering. Those who use 5lbs to 10lbs right away notice the penis fight back even harder. In your case, the body detects the tissues are in need of extending further, possible for procreation purposes, so the tissues and muscles relaxed even further. Stay the course brother. Don't increase the weight.

Pondering or just wishful thinking??
Wishful or scientifically observed?

Yes i started with 1 pound but over a year I was using 20 pounds. From there i used heavier and heavier weight. When I first started with minimum weight helped but as I went up in weight I made no gains. This when I first created the lengthmaster gains came so quickly and continued till I took a break. With hanging i made very little growth, about .25 gains but with the lengthmaster i gained 3 inches.

Thank you! since your response, i've been trying to read more on hanging and loosening of the ligaments/tunica, outside of manual stretching. it definetly seems like light hanging (say up to 5-10 lbs) is much less problematic as far as risk, etc. i've also seen where some feel you MUST get to heavy hanging to see significant length gains. I suspect if i want to stay at lighter weights, more sessions/time is necessary? Never really explored this approach- but want to not waste time either. under these limitations, any recommendations on routine? seems like you have some experience here and favorable results as well i suspect.

Stay as light as possible until you actually need to go up in weight. When I stopped my long session of experimental hanging, I was around 7.5lbs. At times, I jumped to 10 lbs for 2 minutes, and up to 40lbs (as experimental only) for 30 seconds) to test out the equipment failure rate strapping onto my penis. But yeah, never again going past 15lbs. You don't need that kind of high weight to gain. That's extremely detrimental to tissue shocks that will yield nothing but negative impacts, that is, you're a very very very very.. .. .. .. .. long time hanger. I witnessed a 60lbs hanger. I instinctively cover my crotch in pure reflexive pain. Too much risk for the gain. Find alternative methods rather than placing your penis into such high risk gains.

i've also seen where some feel you MUST get to heavy hanging to see significant length gains. I suspect if i want to stay at lighter weights, more sessions/time is necessary?
Yes. We're seeing more strategic methods to get significant gain, or even coming out of the plateau, but inducing tissues to soften up and breaking the bonds at moderate traction force through smart traumas. HUH?! An example. If you try to soften the tissues to expand and elongate your penis, you want to use twisting/contortion of the lateral tissues as much as you can. This allows the cells to be under constant strains to break bonds during the twists from one direction to another. By adding both tug/pull while your penis is twisted in either direction, you're adding secondary stress loading that doesn't need that much traction force, or hanging weight, but yield the same results as heavier weights. The quickest comparison is a young plant that being only pulled to lengthen the inner cell structures on a training trellis vs the plant that being twisted, bent, and pulled at the same to achieve greater growth potential on a dynamic trellis. Ever grown a pomegranate or an olive tree? Those who do know exactly what I'm talking about.

Definitely, just like what I mentioned above. It's about twisting your penis in one full direct fully, record the degrees of contortion, and slowly, every slowly pull/push the penis in one direction to test the limited of the traction force under contortion. Do the exact same thing when going in the other direction. You'll be surprise how very little traction force/weight to yield the same results as stronger/heavier traction force/weight. Give it a try. Tell us what you discovered and we'll go from there to modify things accordingly.

thank you for the insight and encouragement. what would be a ballpark timeframe before increasing weight? figuring a couple 20 min sessions/day to start and then increasing # of sessions before increasing weight.

How much have you gained through your PE journey and how much do you think is attributable to light hanging?

so i guess i should increase my ability to bundle stretch then. Not really good at it yet- it seems when you have a tighter (less stretchy) tunica and average penis length, it's a little more difficult. so many benefits to being longer. (cwl)

0.5lb of weight every 3 to 5 weeks at the fastest, or every 12 weeks at the slowest. But when you reach optimal growth rate, hold at the weight until you are not gaining any further for at least 8 weeks before moving on. There is a scientific evaluation of biological phenomenon on this published as far back as 1920s in observation of stunt growth, with traction control for new growths.

How much have you gained through your PE journey and how much do you think is attributable to light hanging?
So far, approaching 2.5in of growth in length, and hanging only contribute less than 10%.

understood. based on increases in a matter of week periods, what would a reasonable "optimal growth rate" be? since my typical PE program involves manual stretches, pumping and now light hanging- any suggestion on the order of exercises. i usually manually stretch first, pump and then hang. Thinking since i primarily want to focus on length gains, first anyways, perhaps hanging followed by stretching then pumping might yield the most efficient growth. Thoughts?

also one of the big changes i've started is bundled stretches... not the most efficient yet but seems to be critical step for stretching tunica and length gains. end with wrapping for passive stretching ofcourse.

wow! congratulations. starting/current measurements/timeframe?

i guess the 10% hanging gain is not as much as i had anticipated/hoped, but i suspect indirect benefit to other exercises?


and also... appreciate your time and insight in the very detailed and helpful responses 🙏

Thank you. It's to be expected and not something really boasted. I took the safest route with average gains.

This is my old intro earlier this year:

Currently, I'm at 7.25in length and 6.1in girth. Wife is already telling me to ease up on the girth since the combination of length and girth is bottoming her out and filling her up passing her comfort and pleasureful zone. She said not to go past 6.3in in girth no matter what. This is why I'm slowly down my girth and aiming for 9in length instead.

i guess the 10% hanging gain is not as much as i had anticipated/hoped, but i suspect indirect benefit to other exercises?
That is correct. In reality, the hanging allow the tissues to constantly get stressed in a static stressor to get the tissues primted for the extender and pumping sessions. I've done that in the past, but now, I'm experimenting with the dynamic stress loading for the brothers. We have to try out everything to understand how our bodies react to different ways. This is the foundation of our knowledge for the brotherhood.

and also... appreciate your time and insight in the very detailed and helpful responses 🙏
As our brothers need more evidence, the veterans are trying hard to provide insights through their journey. Brothers @Haursen @Infected Mushroom @9.5inchpro and many great brothers not being listed are contributing excellent info for compilation. Even our brother @notmeanymore provides evidence of worst case scenario while offering up-to-date critical info as he's healing. Every little info helps us to provide existing and new brothers with solid foundational info for our own journeys.

Optimal growth rate can be visually observed, and part of that which cannot be. For visually observable, it's around 0.25in per 4 to 6 months. Cementing of permanent gain accounts for the 8th to 9th month mark. That's optimal. However, there are hidden gains that cannot be observed. It will suddenly pops out of the blue along with what's observable. It can be as little as 0.15in to as much as 1in. This has been documented over and over again. So, you can gain as much as 1.25in within 6 to 8 months out of the blue. You may not see any gain at all for 6 months, and all of a sudden, a gain that baffles your mind.

Taking into a spread of a 100 PE journeymen, the spread average of optimal growth is as little as 0.15in for a 6 months period to as optimal as 1.25in. Yes, that is a massive difference in the spread, but we are not exactly the same in physiological condition going from one brother to the next.

since my typical PE program involves manual stretches, pumping and now light hanging- any suggestion on the order of exercises. i usually manually stretch first, pump and then hang. Thinking since i primarily want to focus on length gains, first anyways, perhaps hanging followed by stretching then pumping might yield the most efficient growth. Thoughts?
If you care to share more details about your historical background in terms of genetic, the tallest vs the shortest member of your 5 generations, the health history (healthiest vs the sickest and strongest vs weakest), your current best gains vs your worst gains (which is 0 or even shrinkage), we can do a trend analysis for routine approaches.

For now, based on all the collected discussions going in blind, my suggestion is 10 minutes of manual stretches doing light work to warm the tissues, light hanging while keeping the tissues warm, follows by 10 to 30 minutes of manual works with moderate intensity without going into the high intensity for observation, follows by pumping for a whole week or at least two cycles with rest.

The following 2 cycles or a whole week, switch up with moderate routine with touches of higher moderate-high intensities.

And then repeat over with the two interswitching method for just 2 months. Observe, note, observe, note. See how your tissues response to different approaches. If this is favorable, keep at it. If not, we can come up with a shorter attack route through light-moderate and then moderate-high within a short burst cycle in a week period. We can break the body adaptive mode.

also one of the big changes i've started is bundled stretches... not the most efficient yet but seems to be critical step for stretching tunica and length gains. end with wrapping for passive stretching ofcourse.
Exactly. As we have discussed, bundled stretches using the contortion stress loading is essential. Twisting one direction to the max and hold it there, even place stress loads during a light pull, will generate phenomenal workout.

By the way, I'm trying something now using generic gardening equipment. I talked to the brothers in PE I'm working with in the field using cheap flexible tape wraps while employing cheap garden variety equipment to mimick the more expensive tools. I have to head home and dust off those materials and I will get back to the brothers. We've been so busy and not able to get to the lab to do structural and material testing for silicone molding and material forming. If it all goes well, we may have good news for the brothers to use as alternatives devices without breaking the banks.

worst case is right. its death. i wont live much longer if i keep at it like this. its crippled me to no end. this stuff is praised so much,i got completely blindsided jsut trying to improve my erections, and went down a rabbit hole i cant get out of. had no idea it could cause me to die. if your junk works, walk away and go fishing or something. i wish i could. you wont even know it when it happens.as it stands, i cant walk to get the mail without major discomfort and extreme anxiety from all the issues i have from it .
 
Death is a bit extreme, but yes, PE can result in death when you approach it incorrectly. In your case, it's more of inconvenience walls and irritations rather than death. Deep vein thrombosis is definitely a death sentence for those who go too far without the safety factor. Same with keto diets. It's praised to no end, people lose weights and stay healthy, but approach the dietary method incorrectly, deaths occur and documented deaths were recorded. Bad case scenario, people gone into psychotic breakdown due to ketosis. Same with organ failures.

if i dont ever fix this, it will kill me . and i feel like thats not far off. ive already lost a job. i can only halfway function in sleep.
