Is anybody hanging OTS?

I think the only reason why I am getting some fatigue is because of the bundled stretches that I am doing in addition (5x1 minute). Where are you supposed to feel fatigue after doing OTS? Is it the same area as SD? Doing SD gave me a burn on my penis, not necessarily the pubic area.

some guys use a plastic milk jug (but they cut it). this has a few benefits:
1-reduces friction so the weight is more effective
2-it protects your shoulder if you're using heavy weight / a lot of sets

The amount of weight is always relative vs our conditioning and physiology. I don't think it's possible to give a specific number.

That makes sense. I am looking for some perspective.
I am hanging with 6.25 lbs but would reduce that for any change in position.
