Hey everybody.

First off, I just want to thank everybody who contributed to the thread "quik4life's $500 challenge". In the end, I chose to follow a hanging routine based on IPR, and will be mentored along the way by babbis. Much thanks goes out to him especially. I have had plenty of questions regarding hanging and IPR and he has helped me out every step of the way.

Now to the good stuff.

We all know clamping is becoming (has become) very popular. Everyone seems to be after that ever-coveted 6 inches of girth (or even higher in some cases). With the advent of the Air Clamp, clamping is becoming even more readily accepted, and dare I say, safe.

I was doing a clamping routine about 2 months ago. I saw a lot of temporary gains, but it never materialized into permanent gains. Standard clamping routines have people clamping off 100% erections and doing 3 x 10 min sets to start off. Personally, I quickly moved up in time, but my engorgement never seemed to budge more than 0.25 inches. The, one day, I loosened the clamp. I started to treat my clamp like an adjustable cock ring. To my surprise, the looser the clamp was, the greater my engorgement was. After a month and half, I was doing 4 x 15 min sets. At the end of my last set, I was able to get 0.8 inches of engorgement while in the clamp. I had to stop clamping; I was scared to discoloration and realized that clamping MAY be hindering my length gains (which I also desperately needed).

I was doing a lot of thinking about Xenolith's IPR protocol and its relation to girth. He did say that IPR could be used for both length and girth, but no one has tried it out on girth yet. I was just wondering if either a) anybody has tried it out, or b) if anyone would be willing to try it out.

This is a sample routine that I came up with:

Day 1 - 10 min warmup - Clamp for 33 minutes
Day 2, 3 - rest
Day 4 - 10 min warmup - Clamp for 36 minutes
Day 5, 6 - rest
Day 7 - 10 min warmup - Clamp for 39 minutes
Day 8, 9 - rest
Day 10 - 10 min warmup - Clamp for 43 minutes
Day 11, 12 - rest
Day 13 - 10 min warmup - Clamp for 48 minutes
Day 14, 15 - rest
Day 16 - 10 min warmup - Clamp for 52 minutes
Day 17, 18 - rest

**NB - After each clamp session, one should wrap at the base for at least 4 hours.

Stay wrapped at base for 4 hours/day - 1 week
Stay wrapped at base for 2.5 hours/day - 1 week
Stay wrapped at base for 1 hours/day - 1 week

**NB - One could do 5-10 dry jelqs to pump up their flaccid a bit before putting on the wrap at the base.

Rest for 6-8 weeks. Then repeat.

To be honest with everyone, I don't think IPR with work with girth. It just seems that anyone who has tried to gain girth in the past, has had to put in a lot of work and constantly clamp to ensure that the faux girth becomes permanent. Six clamping days seems very short. But hey, it was my logic that "more is better" that has got me to where I am today - at Small Dick Island.

I'm very positive that hanging, especially when applying IPR, will give me the length gains that I've always wanted. I've just been thinking a lot about girth for some reason. I just want an encouraging girth regiment to look foward to once I'm on Long Dick Island.

One thing to consider: When hanging and using IPR protocol, once one has stopped getting gains at a certain weight, they can just increase the weight after their decon break, and then continute on with their length gains. But with girth and IPR (specifically using clamping) one cannot increase the amount of intensity - it is usually the same throughout. All one can do is increase time.

Anyone's opinions on IPR and girth would be greatly appreciated.

I encourage anyone who is interested in gaining girth to try out some clamping routines based on IPR protocol; you have nothing to lose and a lot to gain - not only for yourself, but for the entire PE community.

quick,

First, and foremost, goodluck with your IPR hanging routine. You better keep us updated.

Second, good post! For any man going with the IPR protoco, this is a good girth-outline routine. Thanks quick.

Although, as you know, I'm with Modesto on the IPR theory. Xeno hasn't justfied his theory -- IMO, at least. Nor has he even tried too. Everything is "systematics." The body might be subdued to IPR after a cut, or some type of injury, but I see no way how it relates to PE.

From what I recall, a typical IPR scenario goes like this: the I stage lasts anywhere from minutes to hours, not days; the P stage typically takes 3-5 days; and the R stage takes more.

But in regards to the routine you described above, it appears parallel to xeno’s IPR protocol. Perhaps someone can try it. I honestly feel that you used too much intensity when you were clamping before, and that's why your temp gains didn't become permanent. Maybe a routine like above would be best for you. I sure hope so. Again, keep us posted

I'll definitely keep The Gym updated on my bout with hanging.

I'm still not sure of my start date, but it will definitely be in the next couple of weeks, unless something drastic screws up my plans.

Sounds good.

I agree. In another experiment I built an LED array based upon the NASA model of using LED wavelengths to promote/help/speed/whatever the healing process. It was also stated the LED light created Nitric Oxide.

Anyway, I clamped with the LED array for a couple of weeks and noticed nothing remarkable other than a very warm dick. Also, the darkening effect subsided more quickly than without - but I think that's the heat.

A few months later I had surgery and received many stitches along a 7-inch cut. I used the LED array on the cut the same day and for 7 days following. I had remarkable healing. My doctor was floored. I told him about the LED and said he'd heard about it, but it was too expensive for patients to have one. (Also, the NASA study found use of LED only helps in the first 5 to 10 days - and contributes nothing afterward.)

The remaining scar is also much less obvious than it would've been otherwise. The reason I know this is, this is my second surgery with the same cut and stitch count (more or less). The other time it took much longer to heal and didn't look as nice as this one.

That long story was to point out I don't think you can fool the healing process. And I don't think hanging causes the kind of damage which triggers it. I think hanging is akin to stretching joints - over time the connective tissue gives in to the stretching. Stretching joints isn't considered causing damage.

gerry,

First, welcome to the gym!

Second, interesting about the LED array; I never heard of it as a booster in the healing process.

I also think that stretching and hanging are much similar to stretching joints (which is akin to slowly stretching out a rubberband over time)... However, with one ceveat: the penis isn't just connective tissue. There are a lot of tissues in the penis, smooth muscle being 50 percent of it. If you combine this fact with the idea that the penis gets harder (in many cases, much harder) when we exercise it, I believe its easy to imagine why we are truly exercising the smooth muscle -- and not just stretching out the connective tissue.
