"Stretching consists of attaching a penis stretcher or "extender" device to the penis for set periods of time. The device exerts a constant traction on the penis, which, in theory, lengthens and widens the penis. The traction causes the cells in the penis to "split" (hyperplasia) and then reform and expand. Whether or not penis extenders actually work is subject to debate - much like all methods of penis enlargement - despite the fact that several doctors have begun endorsing and prescribing them to patients."
"Hyperplasia may also be induced artificially by injecting hormones such as IGF-1 and human growth hormone. Perhaps the most interesting and potent effect IGF has on the human body is its ability to cause hyperplasia, which is an actual splitting of cells. Hypertrophy is what occurs during weight training and steroid use and is simply an increase in the size of muscle cells. With IGF use, one is able to cause this hyperplasia which actually increases the number of muscle cells present in the tissue. Weight training and, more dangerously, anabolic steroid use enables these new cells to mature in size and strength. In addition, animal tests have shown that stretching a muscle can trigger hyperplasia though this phenomenon has yet to be confirmed in humans."
Having no real hobbies other than lifting, i spend a lot of time reading up on kinesiology and physiology stuff, and i came across this and am wondering what you guys think.
if stretching can cause hyperplasia and cause new cells to develop and cause the penis to lengthen AND widen then would a focused stretching/hanging? routine elicit maximum all-around gains without jelqing?
some of you guys might know the answer to this from personal experience, but im willing to hear the responses. in THEORY it seems like it could work, but who knows.
