    Too Deep

    I am 3 weeks into my cycle and I think I may have goofed a little. This morning I was injecting into one of my delts, 1CC. I have read that the deepest you should go is 1". Well, the only pin I had was a 22 gauge 1 1/2". I used this but didn't go all the way in. I might have gone 1" in. What is the recommended size (25 gauge 5/8"?).

    Now when I lift my arm over my head...there is a slight pinch in my shoulder. Not too bad, but I haven't felt this before. How can I tell if I went too deep and missed the muscle? If I did miss the muscle...what happens to the juice? Did I waste a shot?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    1" In The Delts Is Fine....23 Gauge 1" Is What I Use...

    I just don't want to waste this stuff or make my muscles miss out.

    25g 5/8" is what i always use for my tri, bi, delt shots. Providing you're reasonably lean then it would be long enough for sure.

    Well I Injected To Deep Or To Much To The Outside Of My Delt Once....and It Got Mad Red And Hurt To The Touch For A Week At Least Before The Soreness Went Away..... Soreness Is Not Uncommon... I Dont Sore That Much Anymore Cause I Stick Myself Daily But If You Went In A Inch Your All Good

    youll know alot of the seriousness by how your body responds in the next couple of days.... if its just a little sore in the movement id say your alset...but if the pain gets worse and its gets warm in the injection area and the redness gets darker and spreads ...just take it easy in that area...good luck bro
