    insulin needle for test and deca.

    i dont like using 22-23 guage needles. so i use an insulin needle to inject aas. usually in my thigh and shoulder. Can this be done? or am i wasting the aas. I have used the bigger needled but i am terrified of them. what happenes if the aas is in the skin and not the muscle? it sounds retarded but i do 1cc of deca and 1cc of test since april. I have gained closed to 30lbs. So i think its working but not to sure.

    the reason u need the bigger needels is so u get the aas in ur muscle the needle goes strait into it so u should stick with 25 guage

    I see it as you have 2 choices:
    Man up and use a proper needle
    Don't do AS

    Man, that would take for ever. I've drawn oil with slin pins before for some half baked reason that I don't recall exactly and it took ages. I can only imagine how long it would take, sitting there with a pin in your ass cheek, pushing that oil in. 21g, man I love those, in n' out, done in no time.

    You gained 30lbs so obviously it is not going to waste, but if you've been shooting since April, then you're going on 6 months straight. Might be time to finish your cycle dude and start pct.

    yes you need the longer needle to get into the muscle but that has nothing to do with gauge. Guage is the diameter of the needle which allows thicker(oils) to be injected. The length is what gets it into the muscle, I prefer an inch and a half 1.5".

    Wow, sometimes I wonder if I am being a wimp by using 1inch rather then 1.5 in my thigh...
    stick to 25G, if you let a little of the oil drip out over the needle, you dont even feel it go in!

    Same advice here. I only hit my delts because I'm a lot more comfortable with sticking there, but never smaller than 25g x 1". Even at that, I get a little oozing out when I withdraw. I thought about going with a 1.5" to get it deeper and stop that from happening.

    I think all skin is about the same thickness, its the amount of fat that makes a difference. when I do IGF I use an insulin needle for IM shots and had no problems. shot in quad, shoulder and bicep. I was at 5-7% bf at the time
