Inspriational progress log BigO. I was just wondering, I know the LG hanger is really comfortable and usually do 1hr long sessions. With the device do people ever do like 2 -30min sessions with a break or is it better just do 1hr long sessions. Also I have been pumping after every session 20min 5hg. Any advice is this optimal or is better for 2-10min sessions back to back. Thanks!

I like 1 hour sets with the LG but 2 sets of 30 minutes will do well and .ay be easier depending on your schedule. I like the longer sets because I feel like I get more from a lighter weight.

As far as pumping, find what you can do in terms of time per set without any edema.

If you can do 20, then enjoy the pumping. I do whatever I have time for but I am currently focusing on ha ging and I work a lot

I dont where it in public. It's for when the family is around. I where either large sweatpants or Camos so it's not noticeable but not about to stroll through town with it on.

I use it most of the time, at the end of my sets. I wake up very early so I usually have at least two hours before anyone in my house is out of bed

Hey BigO I know you are a PE veteran and LG hanger user so I just wanted to ask a question about progressive weight overload and trying to understand it correctly without injuring myself.

I am currently at 7lbs and usually move up weight 1/2lb at a time. My Routine has changed to M-F , 2 -1hr sessions hanging sd
If I am able to hang all 6 sessions M-W without having to lower weight due to fatigue then I will move up about 1/2lb the next week starting Monday. But if at anypoint M-W I have to lower weight due to fatigue, then the next week I will still stay at the same weight so in this case 7lbs until my tissue is able to adapt.

Just wondering if I am doing this correct because I read that when stretching you should feel mild to moderate discomfort. You should be able to focus on other tasks without clockwatching. Any advice would be appreciated to see if I am doing it right, because I changed up routine due to hanging incorrectly as before I moved up weight too fast (up to 9lbs). Although I felt the stretch but was trying to power through sessions even though it was very uncomfortable not lowering weight even during fatigue. Thanks!
