    I know it’s proper protocol to switch injection sites for every pin. But I’m right handed and find it easier to pin my right glute. And so far no pip at all with E. So, that’s what I’ve done my first 5 pins. The one time I tried pinning in my left glute I must have hit a vein or something and got an abcess. So, is there any issues or hazards of just pinning in the same area all cycle or is best to switch between glutes and quads and so on?

    I wouldn’t do 12 weeks worth. Its not that much work to load a syringe. Do the week if you think it will save you that much time.

    Thanks guys. Did my first quad injection today. Didn’t have any PIP but a few hours later felt like quad/leg wanted to kinda spasm and twitch. Is that normal for quad injections?

    Quads suck. A lot. I’d expect to hobble around for the next couple days.

    Lat injections would also offer this last benefit, assuming you can reliably reach multiple areas without pulling an uncomfortable contortionist act that results in a bunch of syringe movement.

    Nine times of ten, people who stick to glute only have this habit of pinning themselves within the same two inch area.

    Even most western medicine is slowly moving away from glute max injections, and there are a host of reasons for that.

    So even with the quad (vastus lateralis) being a bigger muscle than say the qlutes, when I start pinning them in a rotation with glutes and maybe delts; will I still have to worry the same issues you guys warned me about if I was just pinning glutes? (I.e. scar tissue, oil coming out, more blood, more pip and any other issues) Say if I wanted to do a 2nd or 3rd cycle or bnc? Because from what I researched, you still have to pin in a certain general area of the outer side quad. I guess I just thought of after a couple cycles you could easily have 10 or pins in same area.

    just saying.

    personally, for spot injecting , I like to using 1/2" 29 g insulin pins. I will back fill a bunch of them at once with gear. then keep them stored and grab one or two every day and spot inject biceps, triceps, front delts, upper pecs, etc..
    easy breezy

    I found some 1cc 29g x 1/2" on gpz. Do you think the 1/2 inch is long enough for quads too or just smaller areas like side delts and pecs and bi/tri and so on? Does it take a while to versus say something a tad larger say 27g? Would that be considered "sub-q" instead of "intamuscular"?

    Not as much. I actually have three different sections down my VL that I can pin as part of my rotation, without issue.
    People get this whole “need to inject x inches from y” bullshit in their head. A muscle is a muscle, and unless it’s got reduced bloodflow due to a structural problem in your specific body, it doesn’t matter. So long as you’re not hitting nerves and tearing veins left and right, you’ll be fine. Go slow, learn your own body, remember the areas.

    You mean I don’t need to use rulers and mark the spot? LOL

    Lol. I can admit, I am.one of those guys. Watdark_sideng YT and looking online and says you have to pin in a certain spot on the upper outer. Although I read its less pip if you pin at 3 oclock if your looking at the quad from above and the top is 12.

    Yeah I had no pip at first but then several hours later and into this morning it was bad. Pretty sore. I know it was virgin muscle so hoping itll get better as I pin more.

    After doing alot of reading last night on various gear forums and sites, I’m really interested in the whole slin pin thing if it would make injecting easier. I read you shouldnt put more than .5cc subq because the needles arent long enough to hit muscle. But Id love to know everyones thoughts and even some good reads about it.

    Honestly, I don’t trust any gear that isn’t pharma for subq. There is a personal reason for this though. I have really obnoxious ginger skin that treats everything like a horrible invader that must be dealt with, with the full force of my body’s inflammatory responses. I can subq pharma test without issue, but every ugl source gear that I tried results in a pissed off reaction that’s basically like a hornet sting, including the widespread swelling. Made me think I had gotten an infection the first time, but nope, just angry pissy histamine infested skin.

    I’ve read the same thing for other people. Thats what I dont want is a big abcess that hinders working out But if Im lean enough I wonder if I can hit IM with a 1/2".

    Depends on the site and your individual fat storage distribution.

    Ok. Thank you so much sir. I was just curious. I felt a 1inch needle is to long for delts.
