    1 inch for glute injections

    I've always used 1 1/2 in needles in the past but I'm quite a bit leaner now (prob 10-12% bf right now) think 1 in is long enough for this type of injection? The 1 1/2 in. have been a little painful recently and feels like it's going too deep.

    yeah 1" is perfect.... i've got more bf than you and it's perfect for me... no smaller than 1" I think 1" is always good for glutes unless you have a reeeeally fat a$$. Pull back on the plunger as well to make sure you get air bubbles and not blood.... then you'll know you're fine. Peace of mind.

    Yeah I'm still in the early stages of prepping for my cycle but that 1.5 needle looks like its gonna be too long...I don't think I'm gonna need to push it all the way in as recommended.

    AAS are meant to be injected DEEP IM.
    I prefer 1.5" for glutes myself and 1" elsewhere.

    I am 6'1" and 205, I used to be 235 and use a 1.5" since dropping the wieght I am a lot happier using a 1" needle for glutes.

    I use 1" but 1.5" is just fine in the glute. You won't hit anything. Keep injections to top half of glute.
