    needle size

    is a 25gauge 5/8 3ml syringe good enough to use for a prop/tren ace cycle... i like it kus i dont feel pain all day ...but the next day i get slight soreness!...i pin only my glutes and delts!

    do i need a 1 inch syringe... i have 12BF% or am i good to go?

    your gauge is your personal preference
    as for length i use 1.5" glute 1" everywhere else. 27g personally.
    the deeper, the better

    you won't feel a thing with prop going 5/8 inch into your glute cause your doing FAT injections. 1.5 min. on glutes, and 1inch min. where there's a low bf count

    it is highly unlikely that any or much of that test got into your muscle.

    Your ok, it just doesn't absorb the same. Not nearly as efficient as a intra muscular injection. It's possible its going into the muscle but you would know better than I. Can you feel when the needle hits the muscle? Should feel like a little more resistance.

    Wow your pinning prop and tren and only using delts and glutes?


    5/8ths not long enough. 1inch for everywhere except for glutes in which you'll want 1.5inch.

    regardless of soreness, 5/8'' is no where near long enough for a glute shot.
    how often are you injecting?

    1.5 for glutes, I told you I didn't want to explain this, why ask advice if you won't listen, 1.5, 1.5, 1.5,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,throw away the 5/8's or throw away the gear, wtf bro 1.5, 1.5, is this enough times. The needle doesn't hurt a friggin 45lb. plate dropped on your toe hurts. Just use 1.5 on your glutes, if this post pisses you off then I know you read it carefully, now I am sorry, hope I helped get the point across, just hate repeating things

    I get less pain going deeper in the muscle. The gear injected into fat is just not as effective and takes longer to absorb.

    you made a good choice with 1.5" x 25g

    I used a 1.5" x 23g. I used one bigger than that once. ONCE.. lol

    Yeah 1.5" on the delts might be pretty painful if you sunk the pin.
