You wrote “I even brought my stuff on long trips.”If I was starting now, I would hang progressively higher weight up to about max 15 pounds (however long that takes; for me it was many months) for 3 sets of 20 minutes or longer, finish with 1 or 200 jelqs, 10 min pump @ 5 in Hg (no more than that - I found more does no better), then transition to clamping after a few months. Apply heat before starting for 5 to 10 minutes. If you have time, extend for an hour or two at the end, then wear a girth band or sleeve for as long as possible.
I think my rapid gains, although slow now, are possible by most if you’re consistent. By consistent I mean figuring out a schedule and sticking to it. I bounced around for a bit but settled on 3 on, 2 off, then more recently 4 on, 2 off. The only times I didn’t stick to the schedule was when it was impossible. I even brought my stuff on long trips. Even now, I’m still gaining just a lot slower. One other thing I did was copied what others who were successful were doing and adapted it for me. I did lots of experimentation but I’d say maybe 30% or less actually panned out. Hanging and clamping have made the biggest difference for me. Crazy high weight doesn’t really help unless it’s for a very short time. I recently added extending in an attempt to kickstart recently very slow gains so if time is an issue, adding that might be overkill if you’re starting out. Good luck!
Some days 15 pounds isn't comfortable that's all it is. Could be fatigue as I've been hanging longer sessions lately.I noticed you are switching some days from 10 pounds to 15 pounds.
Curious on the switching.
Is it depending on indicators that particular day or perhaps the lighter 10 pounds at the beginning of a 4 days on 2 days off session?
Tired of advice that sounds smart and goes nowhere?
