    First Time I Have To Inject!

    This will be the first time I will be shooting myself..im a little nervous. Its not cuz of the pain because I know it doesnt hurt..its just odd..

    Im doing EQ 400mg wk test 500mg wk

    what needle size do u guys recommend?

    I will most likely only be injecting in my quads, im not sure I can do my buttocks..its more uncomfortable..

    My first stick was nothing, for some reason, I just did it, and after the first one... damn... felt great, mood was excellent... I hit the gym so hard that day.

    I use 1 1/2" x 22G right now, and was using 1 1/2" x 23G but ran out. Both work fine for test products.

    Good Luck, yes keep us posted on success...

    Agreed however, I find that some oils even after heating them up just have a hard time going thru 27G pins. I prefer 25 for delts and thighs, even tris and bi's. However the smaller the pin the less scar tissue, so whenever I can get test to go thru a 27 gauge pin, then that will be the day.. LOL. I am sure it can be done, but man when I stick my thigh with even a 25 gauger, it is painful injecting and trying to struggle to push the oil thru that pin.

    Don't know if this applies to you, but remember ,if you are taking the EQ and the TE in the same shot, to swap out for a fresh needle after you have withdrawn both from the vials. This takes away the dullness of the needle from drawing out of 2 vials and then sticking.
