    Ok To inject calf?

    My ex always did the pinning for me. Now I have to do it. I tried the glute but hard to do twisting around. I am pinning 1 1/2 CC each week. Is the calf a good option?

    It will be the most painful injection ever. DO NOT DO IT.

    ouch... 1.5cc in to the calf..
    quads are my site of choice.. can barely feel it go in and soreness is typically minimal and no twisting involved...

    1.5 may be alot for the calf. And calf is typically painfull. If you cant do glutes what about delts or quads?

    Quads are the way to go man, easy and relatively painless...calves are a no go for me.

    If he shoots 2cc+, he better make a youtube out of it.

    OP if you want another location to inject, the groin muscles are relatively painless and easy to reach.

    You should go ahead and try it once, maybe it will work out. I tried it but it hurt a ton, probably due to the thick ass layer of skin or fascia on the calf =\

    Ventro Glute, NEVER any pain and you can easily put in 3cc's no problem- what more could you ask for.

    I've used 3/4" plenty of times with no problems.. Now I use 1" just to make sure it goes in deep enough.. 5/8" seems a little short, but if you have no fat on there you might be ok.. anyone else ever used 5/8"?

    I wondered about delts.. (left delt pin) i assume you pin with the right hand and then hold it steady with the left whilst you aspirate and inject with the right again? Or would you do it all with the right hand?

    i don't get how people scream like schoolgirls with calves. I had to pin my calf once with an 18G needle once and it wasn't too bad. Now if you wanted to pin biceps thats a bit different.

    That's because you didn't have to keep your delt relaxed, since you didn't actually stab the pen into your muscle.

    Sure, it may be possible if you're really determined, but it isn't hard to do with one hand (and you won't have to prentend you have brachial palsy).
