shoulder injection

**Noliac** · 08-31-2007, 01:12 PM

how do you guys do it!? i did a shoulder injection for the first time yesterday and i cant even lift my arms. i usually just stick to thighs and keester but i wanted to try the shoulder. i shoulda known it was gonna be like this b/c the first time i did my butt shot i couldnt even sit down without being in pain. the soreness should be better with the more times i shoot up in it right? also how do you guys aspirate when shooting the shoulder? i used a 3cc syringe and a 1/2" 25g needle and i couldnt find a way to aspirate without the needle coming out. good thing i dont have to workout today b/c i dont know if i could with how sore it is

with my injectable vitamins I use a 25g 1" needle. shove it in the med delt until its honestly barely sticking out, then pull the plunger back a tad to see if there's blood, then, nice and easy, at a good pace push the liquid in. no problems here...

I've done 1" needles in my delts with Test/Deca and had some serious pain. Nothing to do really other than tolerate it.

Passing through a nerve or even the sarcoplasmic reticulum causing the muscle to make tiny contractions. Totally normal.

I love shoulder shots and prefer over any other body part, which allows me a great control over my shot as well.
In my particular case, I have freakishly huge shoulders making me extremely wide therefore I can get plenty CCs into each one. LoL

shoulder and pec shots are great, ive used a 1.5 in each with no probs, jabbed 3ml oil, never had a problem. OK, the first few times there is pain, just like any injection site, but after afew times its cool. Unless your using prop, then thats never cool

The sustanon Im on is human grade and the BA in it has me knotted up like a SOB!
I alternate from shoulders to gluts...I can barely sit right now..lol
Sucks, but I can take the pain for some massive gains!

sounds like most people in here alternate glutes and delts. nobody likes quad shots? ive only done glutes but i know that next cycle im going to have to try another site and i was thinking quads....kinda nervous lol

it's called "VIRGIN MUSCLE"

lol

Trust me, I'm into week 6 of test-e and deca . First week my delts were sore, but now I can inject with no pain at all and have no pain following the injection that day, the next day, or any day for that matter.

I hate quad shots... I've only successfully did 2 quad injects... I've tried hitting them MANY times but I hit nerves and my legs twiched which scared the crap outa me hahahaha. So now it's just glutes and delts. And when I start with igf-1 I'm going to try biceps

My first ever delt injection was 2cc's... So you can definately do more than half a cc.

quads are the best, because you can use 3 sites on each leg. i go delt quad quad quad delt...
