Qarzan's progress log

[Qarzan]

Hey Snitch, thanks! Decided I need to write my progress log daily during my hanging routine because it requires more attention to detail.

Tuesday, May 1, 2012. Week 9, Day 2.

Decided not to lean back for the BTC angle any more. Skin, ligs, and tunica will all stretch in due time. Going for just SD angle now. In which case, first set at 5 lbs resulted in a little fatigue, will see how it holds up for a second set of 5 lbs.

Second set ended up with a bit more fatigue, but we'll keep it at 5 lbs and see how it feels after that. If I can handle all 3 sets tomorrow at 5 lbs as well, that means we should increase to 5.5 lbs. Woohoo! Getting ready to break the 5-lb barrier!

Wednesday, May 2, 2012. Week 9, Day 3.

Trying to keep with the SD angle, with 5 lbs for all sets. If all goes well, I increase to 5.5 lbs tomorrow and see how that goes.

Thursday, May 3, 2012. Week 9, Day 4.

Increased to 5.5 lbs today, trying to keep SD angle. First set resulted in significant strain, will reduce to 4.5 lbs for second set. Second set resulted in very little fatigue, so I kept it at 4.5 lbs for the third set.

Next week, I'll reduce to just 5 lbs for the second set and see how it goes from there.

[Toadstool]

Great work Qarzan! With your efforts, you'll be gaining in no time.

 

[Qarzan]

Thanks Toadstool! I feel like, even if there are no measurable gains, I definitely notice a difference in how outstretched the ligs are. On top of that, there is a slight difference in length: whereas before it was just barely 5 5/8", now it's a little bit beyond 5 5/8" (5.625"). Still not enough to register as any measurable gains, but it's a gain nonetheless. Girth remains the same, as expected with hanging.

Friday, May 4 (Star Wars Day!), 2012. Week 9, Day 5.

Started with 5.5 lbs, felt more strain today than yesterday. I tried 4.5 lbs for the second set, but found it gave hardly any feeling of strain, so I increased to 5 lbs after about a minute. Third set decresed to 4.5 lbs. About halfway through the set, I noticed significant fatigue. Kind of a dull ache feeling. Reduced to 4 lbs with 6:30 left on the timer.

Monday, May 7, 2012. Week 10, Day 1.

Have the plumber calling soon to come by and replace my water heater, so I don't know how much of my workout I can get done before he gets here. We'll see.

Started with 5 lbs accidentally, forgot to start with 5.5 lbs, so I hung 5.5 lbs for the second set. Noticeable difference between fatigue levels of first and second sets.

Third set was interrupted by the plumber, 3 minutes into it, for about 10 minutes. Resumed once he was gone.

Tuesday, May 8, 2012. Week 10, Day 2.

Started with 5.5 lbs, felt little fatigue, so I kept it at 5.5 lbs for the second set. A little more fatigue during the second set, but still felt alright. Will attempt to stay at 5.5 lbs for the third set.

Felt a dull pain as I tried to adjust my seated position with 3 minutes left in the third set. I decided to reduce weight to 5 lbs, then I decided not to risk it and stopped the third set short, with 1.5 minutes left, and proceeded directly to the warm-down.

Wednesday, May 9, 2012. Week 10, Day 3.

Started with 5.5 lbs for the first set, then felt a bit of discomfort near the end, and decided to start the second set with 5 lbs. After 3 minutes into the second set, I felt further discomfort near the base of the penis (where the shaft meets the pubic bone), so I further reduced to 4.5 lbs. After another 1 minute, I felt more strain in the same place, so I reduced to 4 lbs. Third set will likely be further reduced to 3.5 lbs.

Still watching ya Q-man... Keep it up!

 

[Qarzan]

Had a dream last night that my penis grew to about 18" long! I was surprised but also a bit worried because it had grown so fast... I was worried there was something wrong with it. Hmm, is this a sign of things to come?

Thursday, May 10, 2012. Week 10, Day 4.

Started at 5.5 lbs, tempted to reduce to 5 lbs immediately, but stuck it out. Sensed a dull ache around the bottom of the shaft, but no sharp pain. Reducing to 4.5 lbs for the second set.

I do sense that now the weight is pulling on the internals as well as the skin. The sensation is different, and is not located on the skin above the shaft, but rather at the base of the penis, where the shaft connects to the pubic bone.

Friday, May 11, 2012. Week 10, Day 5.

Playing it safe and starting with 5.0 lbs today to begin with. Don't want to risk an injury and have to stop PE. Experienced a bit of fatigue for first set, so I reduced to 4.5 lbs for the second set, which resulted also in a little fatigue. Reduced further to 4.0 lbs for the third set.

Tuesday, May 15, 2012. Week 11, Day 1.

Started hanging 5.5 lbs, but it was a bit much to bear, so I lowered it to 5 lbs after about 2.5 minutes. I think the soreness is from all the sex I had over the weekend. Definitely a good problem to have. The pain is generally from skin chafing, though, and not any kind of strain on the internals. Still, it's probably best to go easy on it for now.

After about 10 minutes, I noticed a sharp pain at the base of the shaft, so I further reduced to 4 lbs for the first set. Damn, I think having a lot of sex seems to weaken the tissues somehow, as they really can't take that much weight right now. Any thoughts on this?

Reduced to 3.5 lbs for the second set, then since there was no significant fatigue, I kept it at 3.5 lbs for the third set.

Did my measurement just now. I finally reached 5.75", guys! Seems this hanging thing is working! Slowly but surely. The ligs are stretched, and the internals are taking the stress now, and I have my first measurable gains from hanging. Let's see how long this keeps up!

I achieved this measurement by using lotion and porn, which had me reach full erection very quickly. Other than measurements, I'm not using porn at all.

Wednesday, May 16, 2012. Week 11, Day 2.

Decided to go a little easy considering that yesterday there was a lot of strain, so I started with 5 lbs for the first set. Noticed moderate fatigue levels, so will reduce to 4.5 lbs for second set. Noticed a bit more fatigue for the second set, so will reduce to 4 lbs for third set.

Felt significant strain around 11 minutes into the third set, so further reduced it to 3.5 lbs.

Looks like you're making great progress QB.

I'm rooting for ya!

 

[Qarzan]

Thanks, SBE! It's good to know that people are actually keeping tabs on me.

Thursday, May 17, 2012. Week 11, Day 3.

Started with 5 lbs for first set, decided to stick with 5 lbs until I can do 5/5/5 without having to reduce weight, before going back up to 5.5 lbs.

First set resulted in a little fatigue, will reduce to 4.5 lbs for second set. Noticed some strain near the end of the second set, but I associate it to the wrap. Will continue with 4.5 lbs for third set, and make sure the wrap is more comfortable this time.

Friday, May 18, 2012. Week 11, Day 4.

Started with 5 lbs, but noticed some significant strain near the base of the shaft, where the shaft joins the pubic bone. Reducing to 4.5 lbs for second set, may reduce to 4 lbs for third set, depending on how it feels.

Felt a sharp pain at the base of the shaft in the third set, after 8 minutes, so I reduced to 3.5 lbs at that time. Then I felt another sharp pain in the same place (instantaneous, not continuous), so further reduced to 3 lbs after 10 minutes.

Monday, May 21, 2012. Week 12, Day 1.

Trying for 5/4.5/4.5 today, working up to 5/5/5 for two days straight, before I can increase back up to 5.5 lbs as my max. Glad I decreased and listened to the signs I was getting, I avoided possible injury and setback in my training! Go me!

First set went well. Felt some significant skin stretching. I think this is because I wrapped with some of the theraband contacting the skin on my shaft. This means more friction and more skin stretch. Fixed for second set by making sure the theraband was not in direct contact with the skin, with the soft wrap in between.

Third set, about 5 minutes in, I hardly felt any fatigue on the shaft. I'll try 5/5/4.5 tomorrow.

Tuesday, May 22, 2012. Week 12, Day 2.

Wednesday, May 23, 2012. Week 12, Day 3.

Won't be able to do my PE workout on Thursday or Friday, so I'll just substitute in maybe 1 hour of wet jelqs on those days. I'm coming back on Sunday evening from a friend's wedding in Chicago.

Started with 5 lbs, noticed a little strain, but felt 5 lbs for the second set would be too much, so I'll lower it to 4.5 lbs for the second set. Was able to handle 4.5 lbs for the second set surprisingly well, so maintained 4.5 lbs for the third set.
