Hello my fellow PE enthusiasts,
I've recently jumped back into PE and started hanging. I started my PE experience almost 15 years ago and over about 4 years gained 2" in length and 3/4" in mid shaft girth with a combination of manual exercises and an extender. I continued PE intermittently since but without the proper approach or dedication to make significant gains. In February 2018 I got a piercing that made using my extender extremely uncomfortable and potentially dangerous. With my wife and I divorcing it seems a good time to do some things for myself, I've changed my diet, changed my workouts and decided to resume PE and start hanging which feels both much more comfortable and safer than extending with my particular piercing (plus after gaining 2" from extending I think that well may be dry). I've started hanging using The Total Man hanger. Over a month I've gradually increased the weight to 5 lbs where I've started feeling really great fatigue. It reminds me of the feeling I got in my supensatory ligaments all those years ago when first I started extending.
As I plan for the future I want to add weight as infrequently and slowly as possible while maintaining good gains. I'm currently doing three, 15 minute sets with a mix of straight down and BTC angles with a silicone sleeve and 500g weight ADS to prevent turtling when not hanging. I will comfortably stay here for as long as it continues to induce fatigue but when the time comes what are the best ways to prolong time at this weight while still getting this good feeling and positive indicators? More sets, longer sets, different angles? All of the above? From what I've read the prevailing wisdom is to stay with BTC and straight down until you exhaust ligament gains and then change to straight out and over the shoulder for more tunic focused gains. This leaves more sets and longer sets as the top options. Both are viable for me as even pre-corona virus I worked from home 9 days out of 10.
Thanks!
