Shoulder injections vs Glutes?

[Wayacrucis]

Just out of curiosity has anyone executed an all shoulder injection cycle of test e? I've only been hitting my shoulders with 250mg of test e per week, comes to about 1 CC and a bit. I kick started my cycle with Dianabol , gained a nice 12lbs from it. I've been off D-BOL for about a week, and I'm down to 207lbs, (started at 200lbs) so I've lost about 5lbs of water.

The problem is I'm exactly 5 weeks in and I still haven't seen any noticeable changes. According to most of the sources test e should kick in at about 3 weeks? I'm not sure why I'm not feeling anything. 5lbs gain and half way through my cycle seems really shit.I'd say I'm an intermediate lifter, diet is pretty good I even posted pics of myself PRE cycle and most people commented that I look decent for a natural. With that being said why is it that I'm not growing when I'm on gear? It doesn't make much sense to me so I was thinking could it be because I'm only pinning my shoulders? maybe the test isn't being absorbed well :/?? Appreciate input.

i pretty much only hit shoulders and will do 2.5cc in them fine. But some people advize against it. I have no problems though.

I'm just trying to figure out WHY I haven't gained 5 weeks into a 500mg Test e cycle. I'm sure i'm hitting the muscle, because I'm going all the way in with a 1inch and my shoulder is pretty sure right after :/

I inject 2 cc's into my shoulders NP.

Fav spots, quads, bicep, and shoulders.

I can't reach my glutes without having a seizure.

Test E usually kicks in around week 5 which is why a lot of people run the Dbol for around 4 weeks. If you only inject into your delts, try to at least rotate muscle heads in your delts (inner, outer, middle) on both shoulders. Inner head on your biceps is also a good spot, along with your quads.

I didn't notice anything drastic (in regards to strength) until weeks 8-9. The weight came on slowly, and the strength as well. Week 9 was my favorite

[Darksyde]

whoever told you test e always kicks in at 3 weeks didnt quite have their facts straight. for some people maybe so, but for most not until 4 or 5.

[CanYouDigIt]

Took me 5 weeks to notice the test, which is why I was piss off for not going 5 weeks of dbol kickstart.. lol

[bjohnson1968]

correct me if Im wrong but your doing 250mgs per week 1 inj that doesnt seem like much Bro if thats the case I wouldn't waste my time with that amount I'd run at least 400mgs preferably 500mgs split into 2 injections per week

Peace

He said in his second post he is doing 500/week. I thought the same thing until i seen his second post.

Yea I see that know OP I would just think it hasnt kicked in yet and should soon.Are you sure its legit gear? Im in week four of test cyp slightly longer ester than test e but not much and the only real thing I notice is silkiness to my skin. You havent noticed anything what so ever

Yea I'm sure my gear is legit. There is SOME difference, I'm not gonna lie, but most people say that ur supposed to blow up on ur first cycle. The reason I'm worried is because I don't think I've gained ANY weight because of the test, all of it have been from D-BOL. Strength has increased by about 10-15%, but it could mostly be from d-bol again. I'm eating nearly 4k calories with 250-300g quality protein, most of my protein comes from Whey Isolate, Egg whites, extra lean ground beef and chicken breast. Do u guys think it'd be a smart move to extend my cycle to 12 weeks instead of 10?

Test E usually kicks in around week 5 which is why a lot of people run the Dbol for around 4 weeks. If you only inject into your delts, try to at least rotate muscle heads in your delts (inner, outer, middle) on both shoulders. Inner head on your biceps is also a good spot, along with your quads.

I always hit inner. I cant reach outer, and I have a tendency of pinning veins whenever I go for middle. But I mean the same muscle is only being hit once a week, so I don't think it should be a problem? would this have anything to do with the absorption of the gear?

[BIG_GUNS_21]

Its best to rotate sites so you dont use the same one more than 1 a week. But if I did a test only cycle I would do up to 3cc's in my delts. 1 inch pin but I have used 1.5 inch pins with no problems.

IMO as a rule you should still rotate sites as much as possibe even if you only shoot 2X a week. Scar tissue can become a bitch later on if you dont.

It will kick in, if you did gain anything from the test already its would've been bloat anyway in my exp... It always takes me over 4 weeks. I always hope for it to start early in week 3-4 but it never does lol.

Good luck, give it time,

Unless your just not injecting correctly deep IM...it shouldnt matter.

[bjohnson1968]

dont forget bro your sheding that water from coming off the dbol Ive heard this quite a bit when you stop dbol and start loosing water people think test isnt working If your getting stronger still its working

As far as twelve weeks thats up to you but perfectly fine

your probably just not going to have such an 'explosive' reaction to the test as some people do. im like you, i dont gain crazy weight and blow up during cycle, i just slowly gain weight and you will notice the size after the cycle is complete. i felt best off my last cycle towards the end actually like weeks 8-10 didnt really feel anything in the first 8 weeks, its just one of those things. not everyone will get ridiculously huge on cycle

[HeMan21]

Does where you inject change the gains you get? I have always gone into my glute. Say if i start going into my shoulder do you notice more gains to you shoulders? Same thing if i started injecting into biceps or triceps?
