Hanging is a part of PE, I would hang and continue PE if I were you. Hanging does have some good qualities and will help you gain. I hang after I do my usual PE stuff.I'm new to pe, I will do the 90 day routine and then I wonder doing more advanced exercises.I planning doing hanging in the future. I would like to know if hanging hasmore benefits than pe and if i will gain faster and more than by doing pe exercises?
I see, yeah I raided my parents medical stuff and found something like that, except its more of a bandage or something, it's self adhesive and somewhat comfortable.I use Ace Self Adhering wrap.

Hey Big Al, I'm working on getting that wrapping info(I've been tied up with work). I did find a interesting post though.
"The wrap should be tight, but not too tight that it cuts off circulation. A way to see if it's to tight is to try and take a piss after you wrap. If your pee stream is cut off or effected, then it's too tight." Does that sound right?
One guy at TP highly recommends using the soft leather chamois(used for carwashes) for a wrapping material. I'm gonna try it myself and see.
Sorry if I got off topic. But it's a important part of hanging, right?
So you should wrap hang right before the glands? I heard someone on here hang from the base, which is better?
Also, I'm having a problem with the sock keep slipping off.
For the sock slipping off you should get some form of wrap that will prevent it from doing so, I used kleenex before I discovered this self-adhesive tape, or my what a grip. Me and Waylander and going to experiment with chamois wrap as well.So you should wrap hang right before the glands? I heard someone on here hang from the base, which is better?

If you're going to spend money on a hanger, I recommend the BIB- I have one and the engineering behind it is pure genius. It's very secure and comfortable and it'll allow you to hang heavy for extended periods. If you don't have the funds [and in addition to the Home Made BIB above] you can always make your own low-tech hanger:
The Sock Hanger
IMPORTANT NOTE- DO NOT attempt to hang weights from your penis with an erection or semi-erection! You risk doing GREAT DAMAGE to your penis if you do!
There are a few penile weight hanging devices out there on the market. Many of them are expensive, uncomfortable, and have a short lifespan.
Here's how to create a COMFORTABLE weight hanger with a few items you'll likely find around your house! It's called "The Sock Hanger":
You'll need a [clean] cotton athletic sock, 2 lengths of twine or 2 shoelaces (at least 3 feet each), and something to add weight to the device (small weight disks, an emptied milk jug, etc.)
Fold the open end of the sock over on itself until you have an adequately thick layer of padding. Then, place your penis into the open end of the sock (it helps if your penis is semi-erect.)
Using one of the lengths of twine, secure the sock to your penis by looping the length of twine around the padded area and tying it off fairly tight (NOTE- use a knot similar to the knot that you use to tie your shoes or a slip knot... just in case you need to remove the hanger QUICKLY!)
Using the other length of twine, tie one end of the twine to the empty end of the sock, and tie the other end to the weight.
If you're using an emptied milk jug, add water or sand to achieve the desired weight.
It's VERY important that you don't hang for more than 15 minutes straight! After 15 minutes of continuous hanging, remove the hanger and massage your penis for at least five minutes. Wait a total of 15 minutes before attempting to hang again.
IMPORTANT!!!- Under NO circumstances should you start weight hanging with more than 2 or 3 pounds. Work up in weight SLOWLY! You can cause a lot of damage to your penis if you overdo it! Also, hanging should NOT be painful or cause extreme numbness!
Advanced Hanging for Repetitions
Here's an advanced method of hanging that will help you add more length than you ever though possible! Before starting this advanced method, hang light for about 5 to 10 minutes to adequately prepare the penis for the intense stress to follow!
To perform the "Advanced Hanging for Repetitions" method, find someplace to sit where, with your rear end on the edge of the seat, your legs will bent at the knee at a slightly greater than 90 degree angle.
Set up your Sock Hanger with a heavier weight that you normally use, but set it up in a way to where, while leaning forward a bit, the weight will [barely] be touching the ground. Now lean back a bit so that the weight is raised off of the floor.
Lower and repeat.
Start off with about 50 repetitions and work up from there.
Some other advanced hanging techniques can involve:
- Swinging the weight a bit while hanging
- "Stripping Sets"- where you hang heavier than normal and strip the weight every few minutes
- Leaning back while hanging. BE CAREFUL! You WILL feel an intense stretch doing this!
- Getting up and walking around while hanging (using light weights!) The act of walking will cause movement and some slight jarring which will put extra stress on the penis.
I wish I was doing great Dustpan, but alas I have broken 3 bones in my foot the night I intended to try out your hanger, so no hanging for me for the next 6-8 weeks.

I played semi-pro football and Saturday night during our game I was making a tackle and m foot got caught underneath the guy and in an awkward position as well, the 3 inside bones on my foot just snapped and went downwards.Millia,![]()
I am sorry that you had an injury. How did you get three broken bone in your foot?
I've got a few questions on this that I'd like to ask, if anyone has an opinion on them?
I like both manual PE and hanging and would actually like to combine them both in a PE program. There are times when hanging isn't convenient in my household purely due to privacy. I normally get to have my own "private time" 2-3 times a week and thought I could hang in these times.
So with this in mind, my first question would be, has anyone combined a light hanging routine with a bit of manual work? I've yet to see anyone do this as people seem to either favour just hanging or just manual work.
My second question comes around hanging itself. I've read from a variety of sources that hanging heavy weights can actually be counter-productive. The thinking is that by going for heavier weights, you actually toughen up the ligaments making it harder to gain length going forward. The theory being harder ligaments are harder to stretch and deform.
I know that when I spoke to Bib a few years back, his suggestion was to make sure that you were always "riding the fatigue" when hanging which basically meant that you had to hang on a regular basis, every day, even if it was for a short period of time. His view was that if you slacked off, it gave the body time to heal and the ligaments to toughen up again. This toughing could actually cause future gains to be very difficult to achieve.
I have to say that I've no doubt that Bib's methods work, as long as you are hanging every day. However for those of us who wish to hang 2-3 times as well, is there a solution for this type of hanging?
With this in mind, if you want to hang 2-3 times a week, do you think it's better to hang either:
1. Lighter weights for longer periods with very few sets?
2. Lighter weights for shorter periods with a lot of sets?
3. Heavier weights for around 15 mins max and few sets?
4. Progressive weights - starting on a long light set and working up to a heavy short set?
