Kick ass. I started very similar, extending 10 hours per day for 90 days straight
I'm a lot more patient now though and normally try for 6-8

I was gonna do nine hrs a day everyday but I think it was you or dangler that recommended a rest day in another post to another member so I took heed. 200 hrs a month aint bad imo.

I've been doing terrible at keeping up with my log here. Things have been so busy that I barely have time to make a log but I'm going to try to find ways to squeeze it in. I would also like to do a good few months of wearing ball weights again to keep things loosened up.

I'm giving serious clamping another go, as I think I've found that I wasn't applying my clamp tight enough in the past. I've now done some experimenting and think I've found where I need to be with it. My goal is to do 3 months of 2 hours per day clamping, at least 5 days per week. It would be nice to see another .25"!

Monday 6/17/13- 6 sets @ 20 minutes clamping, 12 hours of 1 lb. ball weights
Tuesday 6/18/13- 6 sets @ 20 minutes clamping 12 hours of 1 lb. ball weights
Wednesday 6/19/2013- 7 sets @ 20 minutes clamping, 12 hours of 1 lb. ball weights

I have a trip to Chicago to make this weekend, I'll try to get whatever sets in that I can

Taking a break from length exercises for a while. If be much happier with an extra .25" of girth vs. another .25" of length. I'll switch back to hanging probably when winter hits and I have more free time

12 sets @ 20 minutes clamping (yes, 4 hours!) and 1 hour pumping @ 3"HG

EQ was great with morning wood when I woke up. My unit doesn't even feel tired today

I'm going for another marathon day today, we'll see how it goes.

Another 4 hours of clamping today. I still feel great with no real fatigue. I did notice a bit more expansion today though. Yesterday I was expanding a strong .25" beyond my EG, today I was beyond that almost to a light 3/8" expansion. My end goal is to get conditioned enough and experienced enough to safely work towards all day clamping. Part of the equation is finding the point where the clamping action is effective enough to expand, but not fully cutting off circulation. I've been able to find this happy medium a few times, and have some 30-60 minute sets under by belt with no issues. I'll keep experimenting, learning the feelings and monitoring myself. I'll be upping my set durations as I move forward. Fun, fun!

12 hours ball weights @ 1 lb.

So, I assume you are not of the opinion that length is harder to achieve the more girth you have. You don't think length gains will be harder with more girth?!?!?!

I don't believe so, I mean it's just soft tissue after all. I've never really subscribed to that belief
