I just made my kyno injection in the right glute...I changed the size of the needle and damn!! it hurts more than usual :frown:
today I used a 21 Ga 1/2 and usually I use 22GA1/4...
what kind of needles do you prefer bros for your IM injections (every part of your body)?
mike...you used a larger bore needle today, so it is going to hurt more in most cases...i never use larger than a 23g....
and i use a 23g or sometimes a 25g for everything... 1.5 inch....
just because it is 1.5 inches long, doesnt mean you have to push it all the way in. like for say delts, you can put half the needle in, etc...
are you kidding me? you used a 21g 1/2 inch? thats crazy. i dint even know they made a 21g 1/2 inch. use a 23g 1inch bro. not a 1/2 inch. way to short.
I don't think 21g 1/2 inch is too short bro...I ussually use this size and believe me,I feel it's good in the muscle...don't you?
I use primo/winny with:
23 guage.. 1 inch.. 3cc case.
which is pretty much standard for most oil based gear.
Go to your local pharmasist and order some. thats what i do (35 cents each or 100 for $29 (canadian prices)). Try a pharmacy that has a big section of workout supplies (protien, gloves, straps etc..). They know exactly what u need and never ask questions. IME
Since srynges are NOT illigal to buy/carry/posses (in Canada for sure)you wont have a problem. The reason they are not illigal is to promote safe needle use amoung drug addicts to stop the spread of HIV. ie: needle sharing. There even used to be a commerciual here on TV that showed how to safley aquire new needles or re-use/clean used needles. I guess they figured that if they couldn't stop people from using drugs, they could at least help prevent the spread of disease.
I draw with 18 and shoot with 23gauge 1.5
I also use 23g 1'' needle. I believe it is a good all purpose pin.
i use 25 g for just about everything... and for one weird reason... if i don't i inject too quick.
ok bros...you take the same needles for every part of your body?
I don't take the same for my glutes and my shoulders ...don't you??
i take hte same for everything.. the important thing is that they reach deep in the muscle.. my tights and shoulders dont have alot of fat around them, so 1 inch is sufficiant.. and it (one inch) also seems to get through the fat in my ass (upper and outer quadrants)
