I'm thinking about using the Silistretcher for bundles. BTC..
Anyone done that? I suspect the seal could break cause of the bundle.

Has anyone used the SiliStretcher for Bundles?

I don’t think it can hold a proper bundled stretch. It will lose vaccuum force. You can do it with the lengthmaster bundle chamber.

Maybe using a duro. It has a 50/50 chance of success.

I guess so but I'm done with any compression style stuff. :/
Basically double layering the sleeve, the duro ontop of the usual setup?
Do you have a silistretcher or just assuming this?(like me..

A lot of this is going to be assumptions or single user reviews and that’s because we’ve only had this tool out for around seven months. What usually happens is meant find many different ways to use that equipment. You’re going to sign the same thing with this SiliStretcher and you’ll have to experiment on your own to see if these things are possible since no one else has done them. This is like this for every tool we have. If you want to read user reviews go to the store and under each tool you’ll see there’s a review section.

I say have a play around with it, if you can use something for additional support or a cheap alternative sleeve for starters.
It's all about keeping the SS attached.

Yes I am assuming this because I have the SiliStretcher2. I never tried bundled hanging with the SiliStretcher2. I don’t know how one would keep the shaft bundled with a SiliStretcher so maybe you can find out. I just do normal hanging sets and if you have an idea on bundled hanging please let me know. ?

Bundles really need quite a bit of strength and doing them in the SiliStretcher just does not seem like you’re going to get the intensity you need. I’ll make the assumption that I’m using close to 50 pounds of pressure when I’m using the length master doing bundled stretches. This is what makes the LM so great is that it has the ability to go beyond our strength and utilize the simple machine that the LM is.
While this is true in some respects ie 50 lb stretch, the question that presents itself is: how long can you maintain that? 30 seconds? A minute maybe? If you were bundling while hanging, be it with the Sili or conventional hanger, you could do 10-20 lbs for 20 or 30 minutes straight. So then the question becomes: which is more effective? Short bursts of intense stretch, or long runs with more moderate but still heavy weight? Maybe a combination of both?
Additionally, it is relatively easy to do bundled stretches while hanging. I've done them many times in years past. One way is to run a wooden doweling rod or length of metal rod maybe 2 feet long or so through the connector on the end of the vacuum knob (in the case of the silistretcher). This can also be done with the LM or hanger or similar hanger. Then simply twist the rod to the amount of bundling you want and anchor it to your legs, or desk or chair leg or whatever so that it cannot rotate back. Voila, you are doing bundled hanging. If you are using the LM for hanging, this would work perfectly and you could simply use the handles to anchor behind your legs.
That's exactly what i do with the lm. Makes it so easy to do bundle hanging. The handles even the bolts make great anchor points on the legs. I tend to do 5min each side. For 40 min total
Exactly!

You want the most intensity possible. There is no tissue more dense than the Tunica and much force is required to break down this tissue. I always would recommend SiliStrecher after any Stretching session. Just thinking that more intensity would be needed for breakdown but healing lighter Bundle Stretches via the SiliStretcher this could be a reality! these are all thought experiments as it has not been tested in any way. If your theory is correct, that’s an awesome thing but I think we need to test it by a few different brothers and see what their experience is like.

I doubt anybody has done this. I remember people tried doing bundled Stretches with the Size Genetics extender back in the days. The idea fell off.

Worth a try but not sure if it will hold. Plus bundles require a great deal of intensity thar extenders don't put out. Bundled stretches best with lengthmaster
