How to inject in glutes, stumped?

[DerrikT]

Firstly I want to inject in the glutes (specifically laying down, not standing up) but i feel the muscle is tense in this position

Secondly and most importantly - I physically cannot reach my opposite hand across close enough to put the needle in, i.e. don't have two hands to squeeze and inject simultaneously.

What position do people use, any tips?

Getting someone to help isn't an option

I inject standing up but i can only reach my right cheek lol its too hard on the other side, i guess because im right handed

I'm in the same boat, does this mean, you just stick it straight in, one handed then

I feel like standing up is the best position but put it this way, I feel like if I don't inject with my head closer to the level of my heart, its prob going to end up there out of my control and I guess this could be dangerous whilst trying to self inject

when I dont feel flexible enough to inject glutes, I just do a stretch up against the wall for 30 secs to loosen up. Seems to work for me... most the time I do find it hard to get my hand positioned to inject larger shots like 2CC+ so instead of trying to push with my thumb, I use my middle 2 fingers to hold the syringe and squeeze the plunger in with the palm of my hand.

Standing up?

just stick it in one handed and i can usually reach with my other hand to hold it so i can aspirate

Do what I do. Get your girl to pin you.

I just sit there and enjoy the feeling of the test entering my body.

Standing up?

yes, I put most my weight on the non injecting leg and just rest my other leg on the ground without much weight

i use 25g x 1.5" for glutes and 25g x 1" for quads

Notice any difference between 23g and 25g?

I haven't used 25g yet, but I may next run.

[themoreyouknow]

in the glutes i notice no difference...its easier to shoot with a 23g though
