Hey guys I am about to do my first delt injection. The drug store didn't have any 1inch needles so I got 5/8 inch because I had heard that that was allright. A 5/8" 25g needle is ok for delts right?

I use it.. you should be ok, around how much body fat do you have...

if you're pretty lean, they should work in the delts. I prefer the 1" in the delt, but have run out and used the 5/8 instead. You should be ok.

No problem, I use 1/2" in my legs and have never had a problem. As long as your bodyfat is low enough and you get fairly deep into the muscle you're good to go.

I love 5/8 25 gauge!

I am pretty lean so I should be ok. That was the easiest injection ever exept that it took forever to get that 200mg of deca and 250mg of sust through that 25g needle.
