How to stop wasting good gear.....

[Hunter.S]

I've just started a Prop/Tren a cycle.

The problem with spiking once a day is that theres always a little bit of gear left in the seringe.....
is there anyway to limit the amount left in the seringe???

don't worry about it. the amount left in the syringe afterwards is far less than you think. the syringe becomes so narrow at the end there, it's only a couple drops left in it, nothing that would make much of any difference. go ahead and take it apart next time and you'll see it's not much of anything worth troubling yourself with.

if you're really that determined to get every last drop, what some people do is take in a bit of air into the syringe so that the air pushes the last of the gear out of the syringe. however, in order to do this, you need to make sure the syringe is facing slightly upwards and all that and is just too much of a hassle IMO. plus, though i know a little air won't do any harm to you, it certainly won't do any good either. it's not something i'd advise personally, but i know some people do it so i figured i'd mention it as i'm sure someone else would eventually anyway.

Yea, i always have a little left over. It's because of the amount left in the needle. I wouldn't worry about it, just make sure you have a little more than you think you will need for your cycle.

i always lick it (not the needle), even though i know it'll be broken down. so its really pointless to do, but hey...it makes me feel better

A nurse friend of mine gave me this tip to get everything out of the needle. With the needle pointed down draw in about .05 cc of air. Tap the syringe until the air in between the gear and the plunger. Inject, the little bit of air will push the remaining gear out of the needle. It's not alot but this is a technique that doctors injecting Botox use as Botox is very expensive.

Keepn in mind we are not injecting to a vein so the air is not going to hurt you. Even the the max would be .05cc and most of that is trapped in the needle.

The amount of gear left in my pin is equal to 1/10 of a cc...
So like mentioned in an earlier post, this is kind of insignificant but can add up with time, especially when doing e/d injections. That can add up to 1cc of gear wasted after 10 straight days of e/d injections.
I personally draw an additional 1/10 of a cc of air into the syringe after I've obtained the desired amount of gear..at the end of the injection, just enough air pushes into the pin to rid all but a negligible amount of gear from the pin without pushing any air into the muscle...works great for me.
You just want to try and be as close as possible to the amount of air you pull in before injection, compared to the amount of gear left in the pin when there was no air in the syringe. That way you minimize the chance of shooting air into your muscle, although if a tiny bit of air does get through, it isn't going to kill you. I just really try to minimize the chances, becuase when I first started trying this technique, I shot about 1/4 of a cc of air into my muscle, it left me fairly sore and it left quite a welt and bruise a couple days post-injection
