First off, rest in peace to the friend you lost, i've lost friends and family so I know the pain. Secondly congratulations on your gains, from what I can observe I feel like you lift weights because the way you manage your hanging is that of someone who works out namely know when to go up/down in weight and knowing when to rest. I never was a fan of extenders, I feel they do work and get you some solid gains but I just read to many reviews about discomfort and the long times you have to wear it.
I got a few questions, do you only hang? Have you only hung or was hanging your main method from the beginning? And what kind of weights do you use, conventional plates or something else?
I'm new to the PE game but im doing my homework and I also lift weights and run the park so I know about the mentality you need such as knowing when to rest and so forth, i'm buying the BIB Hanger in a few days although I intend to do conventional exercises to help ready my second head for the hanging, keep up the solid work, sh*t your motivating me so your doing something right
