    Anyone inject bis or tris thinking about using them on my next ed cycle,
    What size pins do use guys use? Does it feel uncomfortable? Will be pinning 1.5ml in each shot. Did you get similar pips as you do with other sites, I can deal with painful sites but you use arms with almost everything, ill be using test prop and tren ace so could be an issue.

    What are your experiences, deffernatly keen to try some new sites, have only ever hit delts, glutes and quads, but always seem to have dramas with quad shots..

    Sorry about posting here, I just prefer the audience that seem to always lurk here..

    I have not done it yet, only shoulder, quads and glutes. I'm sure a 5/8 would be fine for the bicep/triceps.

    I've done my triceps and biceps...
    for me my triceps are second best to shoulders... No PIP
    biceps, I have to keep my bicep completely relaxed and placing the needle in, initially it feels like a really bad pinch, like when grandma squeezes your face so hard your like wtf... No pip there just discomfort... Biceps are my last resort
    33cc, 25g, 1inch for me that is


    Ive done quads... I thought I was going to die... Imagine greeting PIP and going to work in 5 inch stilettos... I was like an invalid. The pain was ten fold in the heels and that's all I own for work... I sat at my desk for two days and didn't move unless I had too..

    Lol yeah it gets swollen for a few days... I think it's just the oil build up and it's softens up and goes down as your body absorbs it... I wanted to experiment one day so I tried it in my subcutaneous fat and I noticed the oil takes a lot longer to absorb... I had a knot in the spot for over a week and I felt it soften up and get smaller everyday, when I do IM it's literally less than half the time. Idk why I wanted to try it to be honest... I was just curious

    No triceps for me. I use a 23 gauge 1" syringe. You get used to it. I pin biceps, delts, traps, lats, pecs, quads and sometimes forearms.

    Electra, have you ever hit a nerve in your biceps or tris?

    For me quads are the easiest to hit. The pain the next couple days is tough, but after you do legs the pain goes away quicker than if not.

    By the way, you look great in the avatar.

    Not yet and I hope I never do.

    i don't get pain anywhere in my arms, just discomfort a few hours after I inject and a minor burning sensation. I generally do some type of activity the day I inject in my arms, shoulders whatever... And I wake up the next day like nothing happened.

    my quads I can't do b.c. If I go to work like that a couple times a month, there's only so many times I can say I pulled a muscle at the gym and when you wear heels you're contracting your glute, calfs and quads everytime you're walking... Yeah I hate thinking about it.

    thank you very much!!

    So do you have help hitting your triceps? Or is it kind of easy? It seems like it'd be awkward to pin from that angle. But yeah I'm looking for different places to hit due to a little scarring. I'm just afraid I'm going to hit a nerve going there.

    I lay down on my side, place my arm in a relaxed position going down my side and following my hip. I have a perfect view of my bicep. I inject right in the center of my tricep where it appears to be the meatiest (I know that's not a real word) I've had no trouble yet... I don't go in as deep as I do with my delts..., my delts I put the 1 inch needle all most all the way in, I do a little more than half for my tri... If you push it in slow you can feel when it hits the muscle tissue... I noticed it feels like a second pinch inside but it's rarely noticeable unless I'm paying attention and putting the needle in very slowly. I'm no where near as big as a lot of the dudes on here and that works for me and feels good.

    Really? I did quads exclusively for over a year if not almost 2. Only problem I have is scar tissue from the 23g and 25g pins. Getting tough to find a soft spot. lol

    Yeah it was so bad. I would've tried again if I didn't wear heels. Heels and PIP was on my pain scale of 8.5 to 9 when I was in flats I felt the PIP but it was much more bearable of 6-7ish.

    Care to expand on what dramas you are having? Like are you puncturing veins causing you to bleed like a stuffed pig? Or are you hitting a nerve within the muscle causing the muscle to twist and jerk as you are trying to inject into it making it extremely painful? I use a 25g to inject in the quads and have had these happen. But I just remember the spots and never repeat it around them. But Quads are the only place I hit so far. It's too difficult for me to reach around to inject in my glutes and I don't trust anyone else to do it for me nor do I want them to know.

    Made the mistake of hitting each bi... swole up so bad I thought they were infected, no training for a week. Tris are a breeze, as with delts and glutes. Quads are hit or miss (no pun intended) when I nick a nerve and its uncomfortable

    Biceps hurt more than triceps for me too... I love delts then triceps then biceps
    Thighs for a chick in heels is a no go for sure when I have an injection day with three days off and no heels necessary ill attempt it again.. That's the same reason I don't pin glutes b.c. If I get pip and I have to wear heels and sit on my butt all day... That would be torture to me.

    Am I the only chick who injects.... Where's the rest of the females? Helloooo

    About half of my quad shots I either hit a nerve or nick a vein, 90% of my bad experiences have been from quads, have even had blood squirting out, but hitting a nerve seems way to common, I might have to recheck how/where I'm pinning, I generally squeeze my quad and eye off a central position half way between my hip and knee on the outside, relax my leg and go for it, my lAst cycle I was rotating glutes ed for around 4 weeks the scar tissue built up quick somedays I had no pip other days were awful, that was pinning winny and prop,

    You know the rules here. You can't have any if you didn't buy enough to share with everyone.

    wow thats crazy. What were you injecting? How much? What size needle? How long do you take to inject?

    What I found works best for me is to NOT harpoon, find a nice virgin/soft spot. Use a 27g needle and I poke it SLOW and take probably 30 sec to put the needle in all the way but slow helps avoid any nerve. If I come close to a nerve I stop and rotate a little and continue down and it's all good. I also take a full minute to inject 1cc. I inject so slow I don't feel anything going in. I believe that 90% of PIP is from injecting to fast and bruising the muscle on the inside. Of course some is bad mix, to much BA.

    At the worse I have had a little discomfort but very little.

    Hahaha sure
    Now I've got the hard job of holding off using this stuff for a couple of months, I've been off enough time to get on again, but I have a big trip to the us coming up at the end of the year and trying to time it right so it is close to that but far enough away so I'm enough out of pct to be not having any issues while away, thinking June July sometime,

    Gonna be a sweet cycle as I am sitting in single digits, and have my diet dialed right in ATM sitting at 3.5k cals with no weight gain or loss, should allow me to really fine tune my results this coming cycle

    Bi and tri are 2 of my favorite places to pin, don't even have to take my shirt off lol. No pip anymore for either but bi's did hurt some at first. 25g 1" is all I use and I pin bis, tris, lats, traps, delts.

    For tris I like to extend the arm I'm pinning out to the side parallel to the ground with palm up. The long head of your tricep will be exposed and it's easy to see the meatiest part of it in that position. It's not hard to reach or keep steady and it's a big enough muscle it can handle some oil.

    And X2 on whoever said quads are the most painful place to pin. I've done them enough times that its no virgin muscle and still hurts like a bitch. I think I'd pin my eyeball before pinning quads ever again.

    I used 25g 1in needle 1/2 cc masteron prop. I did do it really slow it took me about 2 1/2 minutes to inject. I was fine injecting it was the next day when I woke up it was a little sore and when I put on heels for work I almost collapsed the pain was so intense. I was trying to figure out what I had done that caused it, I thought it might be too much BA also then I decided to stay with my delts and I started injecting my tri and biceps... Tris I like bis are okay and def over thighs.

    i like how you think... I do that with my tris to but I lay down if I inject my triceps my hands are too little to hold the vial parallel to the floor and to try to press down to inject so I lay down and when the vials vertical I can just keep my hands toward the top to inject while the vials in place... Improv right there.

    Be careful with forearm!!!! It's a small muscle and will NOT take a lot of gear. I pushed 1ml last week and hit the forearm exactly but now I'm fighting one nasty case of cellulitis which will likely keep me out of the damn gym for at least a week!!!!!

    I've done triceps, biceps, forearms, quads, glutes, and traps. Triceps aren't bad but I've never loaded more than 1ml and my triceps are well developed. Biceps were more painful for me. I generally use a 27g for all sites.

    EDIT:

    I've also pinned pecs. 1-1.5ml has been ok.
