yah, i've heard of this b4, but never tried it. Shot my delt yesterday with a 1.5, just was careful not to stick it in all the way

That is funny.. I must be way to lazy to do that. I personally think that is a waste of time.. JMO

I would just push it in about an inch and Im good to go...

I would think that that is just more of a chance to get infections.. You still have to slide a cover over your pin. Anything that touches that pin is a chance for infection. But hey to each his own..

While I've been waiting for 1" needles to arrive, I rigged a needle cover to help me use the 1.5" needles I had to shoot quads and delts.

I cut an the tip off an extra needle cover so that when placed back over a fresh needle, only 1" is exposed, making it easier to fully press the pin in. The plastic guard acts as abrace, like a second hand would, which allows you to self-aspirate a delt shot without the needle moving.

Obviously, the short-guard would be wiped down with alcohol before each use.

See photos below.

What i do is simple...dont push all the neddle in...just what you need.

I like using the right needle so i can push it all the way in, and support the clear part of the needle with my opposite thumb/index, works great for glute,quads,calfs. This way you arnt pushing the needle into your leg, just pushin the plunger down. Results the needle never moving, or causing pain once inside.
