    22g 1/2 inch is useless for any site. You need 5/8" for Delts, 1" for quads, and 1.5" for glutes, anywhere from 22g to 25g is fine.

    I always used 1" 23 or 25g. Everywhere you can imagine. delts, pecs, tri's, traps, lats, bi's, quads, calves, and glutes. if you dont have low bf then probably 1.5" on glutes

    You can go as thick as you want, it'll just hurt more.

    sorry man i didn't check the date i had a question on needle sizes so i ran a search to see if someone else had asked a question similar so i didn't aski one of the same questions that people keep asking on here/

    Glutes I would suggest 1.5" depth
    Biceps,,Delts,,quads 1" should be just fine.
