You need to go in 1in in the quad... i leave just enough out in case it breaks off i will have something to get a hold of
There are a couple factors..........length of your pin and BF.Quote:

You need to bury the pin. 1.5" and you won't have to worry about an abcess.

That is my thought also.
If your in the right area nerves wont matter! But I was told the deeper the better Ive only put 1.5 in the glutes and quads!
The lateral stress it takes to break a pin off is insane. Try it.
I use 5/8" for the outside quad and go all the way in. I use 1" for the top/outer quad and go 90% in. Never had any probs whatsoever.
You do top of the leg injections?Quote:
