Pin sizes

[cherrydrpepper]

For muscles like the shoulders, triceps, biceps, theoretically theres not a lot between that pin and hitting the bone in some spots. Is this where you would use a 1" ? Alternately you could use a 1.5" and not stick it in all the way?

Then for something like glutes, use a 1.5" ? What about quads?

I never see anyone mention calves. Is that a bad inject for oils? What about something that doesn't cause soreness i.e. melantonin (sp ) ?

I have injected biceps, delts, quads and glutes.

Quads...25 ga 1"
Glutes...23 ga 1.5"
Delts.....25 ga 1"
Biceps...25 ga 1"

I always go all the way in, to make sure that I am not moving the pin in and out while I am injecting.

I have never tried calves, but I may soon

I use 25 gauge 1.5 Thats all I have so what I was suggested to do for delts by another member (don't remember) Cut one of the sheaths that covers the needle to where the needle is only 1 inch. Save that sheath and use it for your delt injections.

Make sure you clean it tho before using it cuz it will be touching very close to wear you inject.
