Question about hanging Straight Out (SO)

[jetsetter439]

So i've started to hang straight out and one thing i've noticed is the stress seems to be almost exclusively on the internal 'wire' inside my penis. Is this what I am supposed to be feeling? My intent was to stretch the ligaments involved in a straight out position but the wire seems to be taking all the stress. Am I supposed to work this wire first? It seems like it's not going to budge much..

how do you hang straight out. Doesn't that defy gravity?

I started hanging straight out a couple weeks ago, and yes I have the same feeling as you do. I now try to hit both areas by hanging BTC in the morning for a couple sets, then later in the evening I do straight out hanging to get the feeling that you mentioned for a couple more sets.

would you say that stressing the 'wire' (aka cord) is a good thing? or is it counterproductive in the sense that there are other more workable ligaments around the same area that I could be trying to stress instead?

I wouldn't say it's counterproductive. Eventually I think you're going to have to hit every angle in order to get the amount of gains that you are looking for. So hitting this angle is going to help you in a certain way that the other angles can't.
