    Still losing gear from delt injections WTF!!!

    I gave my delts a break and just did thigh and glute injections for the last 3 weeks. I decided to try delts again last night and when I pulled the pin out gear ran all the way down my arm. I was losing some before but not like this. I shoot slow and leave the pin in for about 10-20 seconds after injection. Why am I losing so much gear from my delt? I am shooting prop/fina ed.

    Its called the Z method. About 2 cm next to where you shoot. Pull back your skin then inject. When you pull the needle out let go of your skin. No gear will come out anymore.

    you're leaving the pin in too long after the shot. Once the gear is in, pull the pin out fast.

    also, be sure your not tense or flexing the muscle. Just put pressure on it as soon as you withdraw.

    I do that with a alcohol swab but the alcohol gets into the injection site and it makes the pain terrible for like three hours, I can barely lift my arm.

    Thats not alcohol getting in your injection spot making it sore for three hours. I soak my injection spots with a pad that you could squeez the alcohol out of and that never happens to me. If I do a shot in my Bi-cep or tri-cep it ussually burns but nothing to complain about.

    leaving it in just creates more of a channel for the gear to seep out..
