Time is never wasted if you learned something. The key to Penis Enlargement is knowledge.
>because I think I was not grasping the internal structures sufficiently, and I was trying to increase the weight too fast, now I am not able to hang for consecutive sets, because in order for me to tighten sufficiently to prevent slippage, it hurts. I need to work on hanger adjustments and wrapping.<
You need to work on attachment point, which includes wrapping and hanger adjustment. The area where you attach is fine for stretching skin, and that is the first thing that needed to be done.
Now, you need to work on attaching the hanger closer to the head, and stretching the outer tunica and ligs (assuming BTC position) in a dedicated fashion.
With the hanger in the position in the pics, it is hard to grasp the internal structures completely. Normally, when attaching that high, you do not WANT the hanger to grasp the internal structures, but rather you want the skin to slip over the tunica, putting all the stress on the skin.
Side note: I do not know why someone would normally want to do it, but I have attempted to grasp the internal structures mid shaft, and at the base. It can be done, but only for 1-2 sets, as you found. After that, the hanger tends to force the fluid from the collagenous internal strucures, fascia, etc, and the hanger no longer grasps.
Here is what you want: Try moving the hanger down toward the head. It appears in the pics that you start the wrap in about the correct area. But rather than having the hanger 1/4 inch behind the leading edge of the wrap, it appears to be about two inches behind the leading edge of the wrap.
You are attempting to attach solely on the shaft, without using the shoulders of the head as the hanger was designed.
Now, what happens physiologically when you do this? All of that wrap between the hanger and head act as a noose on the head and skin. Rather than the hanger managing circulation, the hanger and weight attempt to bunch the skin and internal structures toward the head, and all of that wrap simply constrains this bunched tissue, and cuts off blood flow. Hence the swelling.
Your goal is this: Find the attachment point where the hanger is able to grasp the internal structures, bunch them toward the head, and then the front thumbs of the hanger "lock" into each side of the 'shoulders' of the head. The best way to do this is to attach at most a quarter inch behind the leading edge of the wrap, and then as you tighten, push the hanger forward in pulses, feeling the hanger grasp as you tighten. When you finish, the top of the head should be in front of the V formed by the two halves coming together, and the hanger should be seated on the shoulders, not the head itself.
>BIB, you say that the wrap should be loose enough to piss through, maybe even have to force it through, but piss through nonetheless. When I wrap, I think it is too LOOSE. I cannot for the life of me make it any tighter. When I attempt to piss with it, it does not constrain urine flow whatsoever.<
That is fine, and your wrap tightness looks fine in the pics. The black Theraband is very elastic, and very easy to piss past.
I do agree with the other guys that silver is better however. Also agree that the wrap width should be 1.5-2 inches.
>-Resume hanging at about 5 pounds, 5 minute sets trying different adjustments.<
I agree with this. But focus on attachment point. Five lbs will be a good weight to learn this technique.
>-Work up to my maximum privacy time at 5 pounds, then increase by 1-1.5lbs. whenever I see fit, not the one-week arbitrary time frame I followed previously.<
That is great.
>-Add in BTB jelqs between sets (although my skin is usually too "sticky?" to allow this, and they always stretch mostly skin.<
I like BTB jelqs, but I do not understand the skin comment.
>-Add 10 minutes of light wet jelqs after the day is through.<
Great.
>-Add a couple sets before bed, to keep my newly deformed tissues extended longer.<
Great.
