Needles

I am a small guy and was wondering if a 23 gauge 1'' needle would be okay to inject Deca ?

Glutes? Probably better to have the 1.5", I think. That would be a decent pin for quads, maybe, but I bet you won't like quad shots. I tried one! (Well, okay, maybe 3cc in the quad is a bit much, and I was using 22 guage)

Maybe if your BF is VERY low, and your skin resembles a condom, the 1" would be okay for glutes. But they are so cheap... why not just buy the longer ones? You can always use a longer needle than you need, but you can't always use a shorter one when you really need a longer one.

My body fat is low, about 5% What about injecting in the shoulders?

a 1 inch 23guage pin will be perfect bro. that is the only length needle i use, and i use it everywhere;delts, quads, glutes, etc... definately go with the 1 inch.

I've used a 25 g 1 inch needle before and it even worked fine.

I use 1 1/2 inch 23 gauge and use it eveywhere in fact if I hit delts i push in till a 1/2 inch is sticking out and when I hit glutes I push all the way in my fat assand shoot away.
