    1.5" would be more advisable.

    i use a 1.5" on glutes and delts and never have a problem..

    I have never had a problem using 1" in the glute. Just ended this past cycle using 1" for delts, tris, and glutes and I am probably around 15% bf.

    Ok, thanks. I figured but I always like to ask when doing something new, no matter how small the detail

    yeah thats what i usually use, but im running low on the 1.5's and just looking at the length of a 1", it really seems like that would be well into the muscle

    That's how I started using the 1" pins. Alot of people would say you didn't need to bury a 1.5" which would mean what 1.25"/1" penetrates. I like the 1" pins due to versatility.

    I use 1" on my flutes without any problems whatsoever.
    I don't see many people recommending it but it works for me.

    I mean glutes.

    I can usually tell when the needle enters muscle tissue. It feels different than injecting subq, especially if it's a big enough needle (23g)

    Can 1.5" be used on delts? I feel like that's a bit long?

    Just because you use a 1.5" needle doesn't mean you have to go all the way in to the 1.5" point

    I wouldn't unless you have lots of mass there. You could hit bone. Which is not that big of a deal but not cool either.

    I've never used anything longer than 1 inch for delts. 1.5 inch for glutes, but even with that, 1.25 of the needle is more than enough.
