    first cycle side effects

    Hey guys I'm 5weeks into my first cycle, I am injecting into my thy but every time i do my leg becomes sore for 2-3 days and tends to affect my workouts, at first I though it was normal because because it was my first couple times injecting but it has continued, is this normal?

    Yea well that stuff hurts, try smaller needle.
    My personal opinion is there are better tests such as prop or Suspension.
    But not my call. I remember that stuff hurting when I did it, same as you, sore glutes.

    Yes it's normal. Your piercing your skin and muscle and releasing oil. Just man up. I wouldn't reccomend going any smaller. 24 should be fine.

    You think it's sore now? Wait until your next cycle and you start going through scar tissue. Fun fun!

    What legnth needles are you using? and how long does it take you to push in the oil?

    Going too shallow or forcing the oil in too fast could amplify soreness

    Yea I try not to put it in all the way, I was told to use a longer needle incase it breaks off I would have somewhere to grab it from, but Il def try a shorter needle, hopefully this will fix my problem

    You'd have to do something really stupid to break a needle off inside of yourself. I've done over 250 injections in my quads and have never broken a 25 guage, 1 inch pin.
