So Here is some background on my routine. I've been fulcrum hanging for the last month "December". My LOT is at 6 o'clock, which is why I've been fulcrum hanging. I first started out hanging 2 1/2 lbs 2x20 min every day no rest, I did that for about a week and then moved up to an hour of hanging every day. after a week of hanging 2 1/2 pounds 3x20 min, I then moved up to 5 lbs 3x20 min all of this with very few rest days. when i started hanging 5 lbs I added a total of 200 dry V-jelqs throughout my daily hanging routine.
During the month of December I gained a little over 1/8 in BPEL and nothing in girth. my stretched flacid length went from 6 inches to between 6 1/8 and 6 1/4 inches. and while I was in the hanger it would reach almost 7 inches.
With the the holidays being so busy I found it hard to find time to hang, mostly due to privacy. so I started a jelqing routine, that I've been doing for the past week. My current routine consists of a 10 min warm up, 10 min wet jelqs and edging at the end. since starting this routine my i've lost a great deal of EQ and my BPEL has gone down from 6 inches to 5 3/4. I've been trying to be very gentle in my jelqs and make them at least 5 seconds a piece.
So my main question is should I soldier on with the jelqing hoping for a boost in EQ and gains in length and girth, or should I treat this week of jelqing as a decon break from hanging and jump right back into the hanger.
Any advice, questions, and comments are welcome!
Thank you for taking the time to read this long post, Happy PEing!

Have you considered doing some hand stretching in place of the hanging when you don't have the privacy? My former PE routine had a lot of hanging and jelqing. If I couldn't hang, I would do some hand stretching to cement my length gains.

Personally, I would go back to hanging for length gains. When you hit your lenght gains, then put your focus on girth.

would hanging with a lean forward be a little more effective?

That is a good question because at times I will lean forward and others lean back. Another thing that I do is lean against my desk like I am about to do a push-up and swing the weights sideways. Whenever I am hanging sd I swing the weights front to back. I really like this routine.
