    Quick question before i jab

    So I'm ready to do first jab tonight, shitting it ( as I've posted previously). Was going to jab with a 23g needle but just saw online alot of people use 25g for oil based test... I've only got 1 inch 25g needles, is this enough for glutes? Or should I jab quads? Cheers

    It's fine. Better if you're lean.

    1s will work unless you have excess body fat, in which case if its that muc you probably shouldn't cycle at all.
    I've always used 22g needles, and I'm just gonna start using 23s next time I think. I don't see a need to go to a 25. Anything that's not an 18 is fine IMO

    I'm quite lean but got a big arse lol. If it does go sub q as my arse is big, it's only 0.75ml so is this an issue?

    After tensing and checking there's not actually that much body fat around my glutes so 1 inch should be ok?

    I you're that worried about it just pin delts or quads. Both work fine, I actually like delts

    25ga is a slow slow push. I like 23ga personally
    1 in will be fine.

    I don't mind a slow push, I'm in two minds over quads or glutes at the moment but will be using 25g 1 inch for first jab atleast, and once confidence is built I think I'll move to 1.5incjes and 23g!

    Do your delts with a 1inch. Anything above that I do glutea. I hate pinning quads no matter what gauge.
    Once you have done your first pin you will wonder what all the fuss was about lol but still be careful and clean. Good luck!
