I read a few good articles on this site about hanging some time ago, but I remember conflicting recommendations about rope placing on the neck. Some say that it should be placed under Adam's apple and others say it should be placed over Adam's apple. Can you give a somewhat of a definitive answer to that? I plan to do full suspension btw and I don't feel like I have enough energy to go through all the info again...in searches for an answer

I think that the second option is more logical, since in that case the rope won't push the Adam's apple upwards (which is causing a lot of pain) when you're hanging. And also it seems that that way the rope will constrict the cartoid artery more efficiently. But correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks

I think you also have to make a distinction whether you plan partial or full here. With full I would say there's not a big difference (in comfort) after hanging bc once you've kicked the chair there's no way back in the case of full suspension.

Yeah, I'll add it to the post. I plan to do full.

I know that there's no way back, but I don't want my Adam's apple to be pressed heavily, lol. I have an unpleasant feeling even by touching it with my fingers (⁠ꏿ⁠﹏⁠ꏿ⁠;⁠) I guess it's a sign that i just should place it over it if there no significant differences

I'm not a hanging expert but my logic would be to place the noose above the Adams apple in this case.
