It is possible that you can jump in weight a little quicker at first and then as the weight increases you will need to add at a slower rate. I think you will see a DASH in gains in a flash. :)
 
Dash, how often do you hang straight out? I ask this because if I "hang" straight down I won't be able to see how much weight I'm using because I use a fish scale to determine how hard I'm stretching. What percentage would you say you do? Something like 70% straight down/30% straight out most of the time? I'm up to 14 pounds for 2-20 minute sets per night and I feel some fatigue so I think the straight out is working. Check the link in my sig for a better idea of the angle of stretch I'm using. I guess I could put a mirror on the floor or something to see the weight level. Either that or I could find an object that weighs "x" pounds and use it when I hang straight down instead of my fish scale.
 
I would say 50/50 for the most part, however, I do switch back and forth as my ligs stretch. I would suggest either get a mirror or start hanging with real weight while seated. Sounds like you may be on the right track but I would change the angles to keep getting length from the tunica and the ligs. Be careful and good luck!
 
Wow I am amazed and thoroughly impressed with this site. It's like a stinkin' encyclopedia!

Ok, my question for everyone that is hanging with heavy weights is this. Is the majority of your hang time standing and hanging straight down? Or are you guys handling poundages of 25+ lbs in the seated BTC position.

The reason I ask is that I was hanging about 22lbs while standing for sets of 20 minutes in Dec 2001 and was scared to death that I was gonna rip my Johnson off so I quit. My flaccid hang was getting very cool looking and erections were hard and mean looking (translation: wife liked). BTW, I was using the modified BIB and should've stayed with that model because the wrap worked great.

When I went to the new model and went to seated BTC hanging, my weight went to nothing and a series of bad things happened so I quit hanging altogether but if I can go back to standing...
 
I use a high and a low large wheel low resistance pulley system that allows me to vary from an upright sit to laying down while hanging from the low pulley position. This lets me hang straight down to near BTC angles. I use a heating pad currently as my source of heat and I use four 10 pound barbell weights. This works really well for me. I either use my home made hanger of the BIB starter hanger. I highly recommend the BIB hanger as it is a quality product that obviously has a lot of thought behind it. Good luck and be careful!
 
Thanks. Yeah, the Bib starter is a great hanging device. I've felt absolutely no slippage since I got it adjusted correctly.
 
Thanks Dash. I just did 7.50lbs standing up for 20 minutes and that certainly brought up some good ol feelings.

By the way, welcome to MOS!
 
I'm up to 15 pounds per set and I do one set straight out and one straight down, 7 days per week and I can definitely feel fatigue. I also do my straight out set at 4 PM and my straight down set at 9 PM. I'm feeling really good fatigue at 15 pounds so I think I'll stick with 15 for one more week and then move up to 16 just to make sure I'm conditioned. I believe that hardcore hanging will work for me just as it did for Dash. Maybe not that fast though but I'm going to be optimistic. What were your gains Dash, around 1/8" per month or a little over?
 
I gained the first 2 inches in about 18 months as I remember. The gains are more rapid at first and then slow as you go. This is why I have added more weight and more time. Sounds like you are going at a good pace and being smart about your hanging. Good luck!
 
mate, if you want to hear hardcore hanging i saw some qui master on tv the other day and the guy lifted 200 kg and another guy lifted a human
 
From their penises? You'd think that would rip them off pretty fast,lol. Talk about lig stretch. Next they should try tying a long rope (like 1/4 mile)to their glans while standing still, then tying the other end to the bumper of a muscle car and telling the driver to floor it. I'd pay to see that shit.
 
I'm going to hang 18 lbs right now and see how it goes. I'll hang for as long as I can up to 20 minutes. I'll see how this goes for a few days. I'm really strapped for time here.
 
Dash,

How is it going with your gains? Still gaining?

I have started hanging recently using a Bib starter, and I do kind of a Hardcore Hanging routine inspired by your hardcore hanging philosophy.

Have you considered doing anything to supplement your hanging sessions? (ADS, golf weights, etc?) What is your thoughts on that?

Do you use any kind of heat before/when you hang?

Thanks a lot
 
I think I'm gonna try this method, as my gains from the traditional hanging methods have slowed. Are you guys still gaining from this more intense technique?
 
I am still slowly gaining and have added another 1/8" in the last 60 days. It works but be careful!
 
That's great that your still gaining with it Dash. What weight are you currently hanging?
 
And how much did you gain in total using your Hardcore Hanging routine?
And during how long a period?
 
I currently hang max of 40 pounds at 20 minute intervals. I have gained right at 3" since starting.
 
Hey Dash, do you recommend working your way up to "harcore hanging"? I am currently hanging 10lbs. BTC about 6 or 7 sets a day.
