Injecting speed HELP

[melta6108]

Hey, When i inject myself with test prop it takes a good 40 seconds, but when i get someone else to do it for me it takes them 10 seconds..... would this just be because they are sitting at a different angle or could it be something serious like not going into the muscle?

What size pins are you using and how deep are you going in???

Does however sound like their in a better position....

Could be that whoever is doing it isn't afraid of the pain you may be afraid of by doing it yourself! You just may be going slow to keep from freaking yourself out! I always run my syrenge under hot water if I'm injecting oil base! Also always point the pin so the angle on the tip is down that will help the flow a bit!

if your pinning with the same size pin as your buddy is using more than likely he's pushing the gear faster or he's at a better angle than you...In either instance I would advise him to push slow and steady as you do for your self administered injection...

40 secs for one ml is a long time though. imo its too long and you could wind up wiggling a little and making it more sore in the long run.

Slow is better... the faster you force it in, the more pain you typically experience for the next few days and the greater chance for something to go wrong...

Slow n steady wins the race

I agree with slow and steady but almost a minute for that amount (assuming its 1 ml) is a long time.

[bjohnson1968]

yes i would agree it may be slightly longer than necessary..however my experience has been slower is better than faster 10 seconds is to fast

Peace

I prefer to take it slow and do mine over a 30-40 sec period.
