    Question self injecting vs. someone else do it

    Just curious to see what percentage of you guys (or gals) self inject or have your girlfriend / workout partner do it for you.

    Be honest.

    Well I am only gonna start my first cycle soon. But I am going to do it myself. I've been practicing. . Anyway, i don't trust anyone who doesn't even know the name of even ONE steroid with my ASS!!! Screw that, Go to that site where they show you how to do it, I mean, they have pictures with targets actually drawn on the recipient's skin with marker. Use a closet mirror, and STICK IT!

    I self inject normally, but if my workout partner happens to be around, I poke and he injects.

    i've been doing it myself but now that my wife knows i might get her to help because its hard to pull back on the needle with only one hand so most often i miss that step.

    i know, i know, better safe than sorry right but its kinda difficult when your injecting in the glutes unless your really flexible.

    the first time i had my wife do it in the glute because i was afraid the needle was going to break off in my ass,it took her 20 minutes just to get it past the first layer of skin hahaha
    before the second time i tried to break the pin with my hands and it was pretty hard to break it,so i was confident it wouldnt break.after that there was no problem i did it by myself .no i actually look foward to mondays and fridays. i perfer shoulder shots but find it dificlt to pull back onn the plunger

    Try it with those 21's man and you may not have forgiven her LOL.

    My g/f used to injected horses, so she's more than used to huge ass's j/k

    i usually self inject, but if i can talk my g/f into doing it, then she'll do it. it's always easier to have someone else do it

    A friend told me once that all he does is put the pin to his cheek and then push slightly while twisting the pin back and forth. He said it just slips in. I tried it and it really worked. Big surprise!

    Any of you tried that?

    I do it myself. There are few people I'd trust to do it for me.

    I inject myself - dont trust anyone to inject me

    Dumbells -

    Yeah I used that method when I first started injecting and was scared of needles still - helped me get over the fear

    Another method similar to that for your quads is to place the pin on the skin where you will inject then take the other hand and tap on your leg on the opposite side so that the muscle/skin will move up towards to pin - keep pressure down on the needle and your hand will have your leg inject itself - works very well

    Personally I seem to get off on just stabbing myself nowadays...

    Maybe this is just inexperience talking here but I find it hard to keep the needle still whilst injecting into the glutes.It seems to move in and out of the muscle.I know you are meant to leave a little sticking out but I look down and its sunk in again.Last night I found that if I hold the tip of the syringe(near the area being injected) stays where I want it.What do you guys do ?

    That is TOO FUNNY!!! My wife does my glutes and delts (I have absolutely NO flexability) and I do my own thighs.

    I inject myself. My wife would probably jam it in the back of my head. Shooting at my ass is like shooting at the broad side of a barn. NO PROB

    I only trust someone else sticking me if (1) I've taught them how to do it, or (2) I've previously observed them doing it.

    As I've said elsewhere, I never do my own glute or delt - getting the angle right and aspirating before injecting would be too much of a hassle.

    As it happens, my mother was diabetic, and I taught her and my father how to do shots. So when it comes to the glutes or delts, I just hand the needle to Dear-Old-Dad, who hasn't lost his technique. When it comes to quad shots, I do those myself.

    Postscript to that, since D.O.D. was used to doing insulin shots for my mother . . . This morning, I handed him a loaded 25 g. 1" needle with B12 for the delt, and he commented on how large the needle was.

    "Wait till you see the next one," I said, as he finished the shot and I handed him a 22 g. 1-1/2" loaded with cyp for the butt . . .

    Life is a hoot.

    i'm amazed that you guys like self injecting so much. i only self inject when my g/f or roommate aren't around. i hate it. i never thought that selfinjecting would be the general consensus. guess i learned something new
