Manual Stretching for Ligament Gains

[coltjustice]

I currently manually stretch, extend, jelq and edge everyday.

My manual stretching only consists of downward angle stretching...while doing this my goal is to stress the ligaments. I do these for 15 to 20 minutes...I only manually stretch to target the ligaments.

Then I will extend and after extending I do some light JELQUING for 15 minutes and then I will EDGE for 20 minutes...that completes my workout. I do this workout mid day.

At night I do another 15 to 20 minutes of downward stretching only.

My question is does anyone think this would be overtraining...stretching 2 x per day...??

I manually stretch downward 2 x per day because I know BIB and alot of Hangers say it is optimal to hang twice per day to keep the ligaments stretched...in other words you do not want to allow the ligaments to rest and heal because if so they will become stronger and thus harder to stretch any further.


ANY THOUGHTS...??

Well im not sure if your over training,but I can tell you its much wiser to stretch in ALL directions.technically the LOT theory is obsolete if that's what your going by.you should target your tunica as well as your ligs.

 

[jbeez8]

However if you start having success with that let me know,you and I have similar goals

I am not considering the LOT theory...I am thinking of all of the vets that say hanging SD or BTC is the most effective way to gain length. This downward stress is targeting the suspensory ligaments...which is what I am trying to do when I stretch straight down...I really feel it in my ligs when I do this.

I will also add that I dont stretch in all directions because I figure the extender will take care of this...just the downward stretch for susp ligs only...

Any other thoughts?

Alrighty then

I'm not sure if ligament/PE would differ from regular exercise in this aspect, but if I work out a muscle like my biceps or chest, it's been more effective to do it all at once....so rather than doing 6 sets of curling mid day and 3 sets at night, it's better to do 7 sets in a shorter time span so you dont half recover and then re-work before you've fully healed. Maybe this will apply to PE but I'm new to it and your penis is part smooth muscle, so that may be a different story.

Yes it would differ...the whole point (BIB theory as I understand it) is for the ligament to NOT fully heal...if it heals it becomes stronger and less pliable / less easy to stretch further.

Are you taking the time to warm the penis first ? Warm Rice Sock ?

Yes Dangler...I warm up with the rice sock.

Have you considered hanging?

Have you considered hanging?

I have a BIB hanger...I cant do it EVERY day so I figured I would hold off until I could...I am not crazy about hanging

When you get Phalloplasty and they cut the ligs, you only get about 1/4" gain. IMO, worrying about the lig stretch too much is nonsensical.

Alot of vets say that HANGING is the most effective and fastest way to gain length and that this length gain comes from suspensory ligament stretch.

Hanging like stretching can work at many angles. I chose hanging because I find it easier than manual stretching. You can gain with either. Side to side stretches hit the ligs well and are described in detail in Big Al advanced jelque free routine.

So does anyone think that stretching downward twice per day would be overtraining...again I chose to stretch downward two times per day based on my understanding of BIBs theory of keeping the liggs stressed and not giving them the chance to heal and thus strengthen makeing them harder to stretch further.

I am a vet brother. Been in PE for 10-11 years. There are many vets that will argue with you on that point as well.

Any thoughts on the routine I described in the first post of this thread??

I think your stretching twice a day is fine.

BigO has it right. I do whatever my body tells me and don't stick to any one routine. I experiment constantly.

OK, I will continue to do so and watch EQ...I am thinking of making the second stretch session light and always warming up with rice sock as DANGLER mentioned
