    3/4 Inch Needle

    Recently ordered 1.5 inch needles.. While waiting for order checked out local walgreens and to my surprise they sold me syringes no script... The only problem is they are 24g 3/4".
    I've done two injections with them and needless to say they are 10 times better than the 1.5 inch. So my question is how do I know if I am injecting deep enough. I've heard that if you inject test sub-q as opposed to IM, the e2 conversion rate is through the roof. Anybody willing to verify? I am pretty lean at about 9.5% bf so I'm definitely hitting muscle, just not sure if its deep enough.

    Edit: glutes inject site

    I would not use a 3/4 inch in my glutes no matter what my BF% was. I would use 3/4 for chest and delts and that is if I were very lean at the time.

    I think the sub-q vs IM injections and e2 conversion is all mumbo jumbo. Never read anything or heard of that actually.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ You say you would never use 3/4, but do not believe there is any correlation between a sub-q injection and high e2 conversion. My question then is what danger is there in using the 3/4?

    There's not so much of danger but more so of making sure you're getting the compound injected deep into your muscle tissue.

    Why risk using a 3/4 when there are easily attainable 1inch and 1.5inch out there. Like I said I would probably only use a 3/4 for chest, maybe delts.

    Have you ever not gone deep enough and injected with some seeping into your fat or even injected into the fat and because you didn't go deep enough? It's not the most pleasant experience. I've swelled up a lot more, got reddish skin, and a lot more soar.

    If anybody is serious about there cycle they should make sure that they are properly injecting and injecting deep enough into the tissue, there's absolutely no reason to do so otherwise.

    3/4 in Pecs Bi's and Tri's Thats about it IMO. You want to make sure you are getting deep enough in the muscle for good absorption.

    I have always used 1.5 inch so I have never dealt with this ^^^^^^. But on the 2 pins with the 3/4, no oil seeped back out and it was actually the smoothest inject I think I've ever had. So if I don't go deep enough and it is injected into fat, I will definitely know???

    AAS are meant to be injected DEEP IM,,,if you use those try them in an area with litle fat,,perhaps biceps or delts. I never go less than 1"

    I use 1inch across the board. I do sometime use 5/8 inch in the delts for small doses of winny when I use that compound. Using oilbased gear, often a little juice seeps back out. I can use 5/8personally in the delts and quads, however, I just get the 1 inch and go that route. I have yet to stick myself!
