    Injection Question

    Using a 23 gauge 1" needle how long should it take me to inject 1 cc of gear. Not including aspirating, just the injection.

    Im thinking im gonna be nervous as h3ll for my first few injections. I am debating on whther to go glute or quad. I might go quad because its easier and that should mean less possible problems. What do you guys think, glutes or quads for self-injection?

    you'll have more control of a quad shot..which at this point for you is very important... in a couple of weeks when you feel more confident you may find yourself wanting to try different injection sites good luck

    Ok for me, and I am on my first cycle as well, glutes are less painful, but harder to reach and harder to aspirate . Your quads are much easier to hit and all. Plus, there are 3 spots so you could ideally go left, right, left, right, left, right only 1x each. Depending on the amount of shots per week too. Also you could use delts too. They are nice and easy and quick also

    while were on the inject subject ive been beating the hell out of delts and quads for a while, im to the point where i cant hit the quad without getting a nice lump and a bruise no matter where i stick it. I was wondering if i can go with a glute since i havent hit there ever before but im only using 21g one inchers, is that long enough to effectively hit the arse or what!! PS my delts hold up fine it seems. im going 2cc a shot with a tren prope combo

    Just let your muscle tell you how quickly to inject, you will feel uncomfortable if you are doing it to quickly. This works for me but listen to these other guys cos they know there sh*t

    spoon, if your going 3 cc id stick with your delt, quad, or glute, I highly doubt any of the smaller sites could handle that much gear at once. dont see any problem with your mix though. ive never gone 3 at a time personally but i hit 2 a day alternating my opposite quads and delts. im still leary of my glute with a one inch pin.... dont know if i can get deep enough

    The muscle could just contract really hard. That has scared people before and caused them to break the needle off in them. Its just better to go slow.

    Also, you may get a knot, swelling, bruise, etc. Just take your time and iinject slowly.

    Depends if you're shooting something thick like Pharmacia's cypionate or thin like Nordic's propionate .

    Generally it should take about 15-30 seconds to inject 1ml from the moment you start to push down on the plunger (after you've aspirated). I used to push the syringe plunger in slowly. Now I do it quickly (1ml in about 10 seconds). I haven't had any problems from injecting quickly.
