Does the hanging level affect fatigue??

[NeedtoGain]

When my weights hang lower, i somewhat feel more weight but the downside of low hanging is that the weights move around and hit things when i walk at home which makes it obvious.. It also hit my shins more this way.. But if i hang the weights nearer to my dick, i don't have these problems however i don't really feel the pull .

How do i tackle this problem?
Thnx . Cheers

your probably feeling more pull do to swinging. do you sit down at all or are you standing in both cases, that will change angles

I think hanging while sitting or at least standing still is your safest bet... I think walking around while hanging is dangerous/ puts you at risk for an injury.

You mentioned in another post that you're using 4 or 5lbs. What type of hanger are you using, how many sets are you doing, and how long are your sets? (e.g. 20 minutes). Its really hard to advise without knowing what you're doing. Also, how much PE experience do you have (months, years, etc), and how much hanging experience do you have (weeks, months)?

Blink2000 makes some great points, what has your routine been like as far as sitting, standing and time involved with hanging and PE. I sit for most sets and anything over 10 lbs, I will stand when I get to lower weights, I actually fold laundry at a table in our laundry room while I stand but I am keeping pretty stationary. I can walk but the idea scares me a bit.
I know that I personally feel a difference in how I am hitting the ligs when standing as opposed to sitting.

Hey blink2000, good to hear from u.. Yeah i will stick to standing.. Im not using 4-5 lbs blink.. I started off with 2.75lbs.. This is my first week and im hanging 3-4 sets of 20 mins.. I warmup with abit of deep heat.. I'm using a sock hanger according to the drawing i saw here in pegym however, i'm using a wide elastic strap to attach instead of a shoelace which might cut circulations.. It is very comfortable as i use some nice ace bandage for wrapping.. I have 4 months of jelqing under my belt.. I started jelqing before joining so ignore the date.. My gains stopped after my first month but i continued for the sake of conditioning.. Here i am hanging!!

Also blink!! How often should i increase my sets?? I did 3 sets on my first day then 4 sets on my 2&3 day.. I was confused on how often i shouls up the sets.. ur personal hanging tips would be gr8! . Cheers

I would say the best tip I can give is to take it slow and read everything you can on hanging. The device forum sticky threads have great info. As far as ssets and weight increases go I would decide how many sets you wish to do each day. Work towards that adding one set per week. Once you hit that number of sets then satrt adding 1/2 to 1 pound a week.
If you wish to do 5 sets a day then add 1 set per week untill you are there. You will get the most out of hanging by aiming for ten hour a week. Once you are at your sets per day add a pound but that does not mean you must now do all your sets at that weight every day, do as many as you can do without causing pain and if you get through say, 3 sets at your higher weight then if you have to drop a lb to continue. It doesnt matter if you start with 5 lbs and end your workout with 2 lbs as long as you get your time in. These numbers are just examples. It may seem easy to do what you are doing as far as weight goes now but you will feel the difference if you add sets to your routine so focus on completeing your sets as opposed to worrying about using more weight. I hope this all makes sense. I confuse myself sometimes

If you consistantly get 4 sets a day then you would have 9 hours and 20 minutes so you can always aim for 5 sets and if you fall short a few times a week you still hit ten, i have trouble always getting in ten but I try. This week I am getting more than ten but its tough, just do the best you can.
something else you can do if you are able to is do split sets, say you can only get three early in the day then you could always do one or two in the evening and some say this is even better. Good luck and i am glad I could help, cheers

Yeah BigO! It ds help alott!! Split sets i dont think is possible for me, i gotta wake up 5 in the morning to finish my sets before everyone in my house wakes up.. So yeah! i will sure aim for 5 sets!! cheers
