    2 minor questions

    I've never pinned my glutes before, but i always do 1" 25G pins, and most say for glutes you used 1.5" 22 G... can you use a 25G?


    Also when I pin my delts, even with 1cc of prop they do turn red after a day as the oil spreads and i can feel some heat at the spot.. This is not my first cycle by any means but i keep reading "if it get warm to the touch"



    thanks

    Yes and 25g is almost painless for Glutes.

    Didn't see your second question.

    I was just curious as to why one would use a 22 in the glutes

    I draw with an 18 and pin with whatevs...23g-25g. That said, not sure why someone would say 22 glutes other than personal preference. But there are more experienced people than me, so I'll be watching.

    The only plus from using a larger g pin is for flow of oil, imo. But there might be other reasons that I'm not aware of.

    I use 25 so it can be almost painless. But I have to inject slower due to it being 25g as apposed to 22g. I think people choose 22g because of the better flow of oil. As for length I always use 1.5" for glutes

    On smaller muscles you can get "warm to the touch". I experimented with subQ Test P injections and it was warm to the touch. Well, it was hot to the touch and hurt like crazy. If it's uncomfortable just change locations.
