Routine review: Routine review: Hanging + Clamp

I've been dipping in and out of PE for awhile now. So, veteran sorta? My routine that I want to do is 30-40 minutes of total hanging + 20 minutes of clamping. Twice a day

Clamping will most likely be 2 x 10 minute sessions. Hanging will be of various weights starting from light to little heavier towards the end. Most likely be 3 - 4 sets that would total 30-40 minutes depending how I feel. I will try to do this M-F. Of course things will come up (life) or I am just too sore and require recovery. Thoughts? My main concern was something I stumbled upon here where some people mentioned to solely focus on length first as a "thicker string is harder to stretch". This made a lot of sense to me.

It does make sense and it’s making more sense as time progresses. We find men doing much better tackling length first and then coming at girth later. Your analogy of a rope is very on point. Plus if you go for length first you will gain quite a bit a base girth in the process by hanging, so there will be some gains there too. So once you reach The length you desire switch into a girth only routine.

SRT is the place to be!

I've always done one or the other to keep my focus dialed in.

If you do 4 sets in 40min and the first 2 sets light weight that's 20minutes that's 50% light weight in your exercise. I think this way you wouldn't target the tunica for half of the time.

(X)Targeting tunica = gain efficacy
(Y)Warming up = injury prevention

(X) has to be more then 80% of the workout and (Y) the rest of it.
Not 50/50 or 40/60 or 30/70.

It can be a waste of time and waste of lack in targeting.

I think warming up 5 minutes light

and go straight to heavy (bearable) weights for the (3sets) 30minutes

and the last 5minutes light again.

I think these 40minutes of yours are more profitable.

I only do extending but that's the way I do extending.
15min light and
70minutes heavy (bearable) force and then
5minutes light force,
minimum of 3 times a day.

An active healing and gaining process, I really like that. Using this process with your extender are you seeing faster gains than usual

Be sure to start your progress thread in the progress forum when you're ready.

Can't tell if the gains will make a change I doing this. I hardly think so. but im sure the injury prevention is a lot better this way versus extending right away, where as the first 15min lighter, makes it more beareable for the next hour high force extending always above 1500g
