injection question

**GPS226** · 03-13-2009, 11:46 AM

hey guys, got a quick question as i'm sitting here about to jab into both delts that i've never bothered to ask..when you fill up a syringe to a certain level, say 2 cc's..do you measure holding the syringe right-side-up or upside-down? it measures less when holding it right-side-up because some of it goes into the needle plus the little bit of air in it goes to the top..right now i am injecting 2.5 cc's into delts and when i hold the syringe right side up, it shows about 2.2 cc's and when i hold it upside down it is about 2.8 cc's..what should i go by?

When I fill a syringe it shows exactly the same thing regardless of position, you're not purging the air or something, the level shouldn't change at all.
what is the cycle?

that's what i figured, air bubble causing a volume displacement

right, right...i do end up with a bit too much air in there..probably about 1/3 cc of air in there because i am mixing test and tren into my injections and have to draw up from 2 different vials so some air tends to get in there..i have to suck up a little air after dipping into vial 1 or it will leak/squirt a little before i can get the needle into vial 2. so there is some air in there, but my question...let me rephrase...is this: when you look at the side of a syringe, the first line of measurement is at the beginning of the syringe..but there is a little bit of room UNDER that mark..PLUS a little gear fills up the plastic part of the needle...should i factor that into the equation and only measure from the start line to whichever line i'm filling up to or should i include the extra gear that is below the first measuring line? sorry, that's the best way i can explain it...BTW, my cycle is 10 weeks Test Cypionate 625mg/week and Tren 400mg/week
