What would you consider to be “loose” and needing to add after the first set? If the base easily lifts off that fat pad? Reading through everything it sounds like you recommend not to have it with a lot of tension and should be able to bend while extended. So what’s the marker to add?
The markers are the exact ones that you posted.
""""-the base easily lifts off that fat pad
-should be able to bend while extended""""
That s the indicators that are needed in order to add the next rod.
When these indications are happening during the 1st set of the day its time to add a rod and don t go back again.
By this way your own dick showed you that it has gained MFSL( and possible EL) and that is ready for the next length step.
The length rod progressions extending works simply because you can t overtrain from guesses of WHEN and HOW MUCH intensity to add because your own dick tells you WHEN to add.... the HOW MUCH is 0,2 to 0,3cm as the Andro rods are comming with the device.
When you are adding the new length you will see that teh dick is NOT so loose in the extender anyome... so all you have to do is doing your 3X60 mins sessions 5 days /week and it will be loose once again and then you are adding the next rod and this is how gains are happening.
And don t even think of doing more volume/sets or skipping your rest days because you are gonna have the opposite results.... the tissues will get stiff and you can stay there for a life time without being able to gain more MFSL in order to procceed in the next rod.
Thats the main trap of all the extending guys with no gains.
