    About to try something new and pin front delts tommorow, need some advice...

    3 Injections in so far on my test e cycle, all have been side delt, want to try my front delt tommorow.


    Any pointers? My plan of attack is using the same size needle 1.5 23gg to do it. Should I do it with my arms above parallel so my front delts sticking out? I also have a large shoulder vein i would particularly want to avoid pinning, however its a possibility...It'll be fine though right? The needle will just poke through it? I'm just hoping I dont hit some nerve and spaz out.

    Any reason you're not hitting your glutes, quads? They're big muscles and they generally hurt less.

    I do, it's just weird going to the difficult spots or smaller muscle groups before anything else taking advantage of the large injection sites.

    I pin front delts. Usually can see the veins. Or I can pin between. No more than 2 cc for me

    I dont like front delts because mine get way too tight after pinning. They really restrit my range of motion. Even a painful glute has never given me and issue while sitting. It is mainly any kind of squatting motion that hurts it

    A 1.5" 23 ga for delts. WTF! It's not your glutes! You do not need that long nor that size gauge. Drop to a 1" and up it to a 25ga. You'll appreciate it. Learn glutes and save your 1.5's for them.

    ^^^^^ Yikes is right!!! 1.5 inch!?! Are you trying to deposit the gear in your rotator cuff???

    For delts, I only pin rear and lateral. Front is too risky for shoulder pain IMO.

    - glutes
    - pecs
    - delts

    I used to do quads but had a bad hematoma and infection that scared me away!

    I pin everything but glutes are by far less painful, can take bigger shot volumes and impede you less in the gym. I can shoot 5.5 cc's in my glutes and do squats same day. Keep it high up by the belt line. I've done MENT cycles that were dosed at 50 mg/ml and have to be pinned every day. Add in some Test A/Masteron P and I'll tell you this much, you'll need to get creative with the pinning. If I was pinning Test E only twice a week I'd be pinning ONLY glutes!!!!
