    I've had bad luck with that spot myself. Check spotinjections .com . I like the top part of the quad on the front myself lately.

    i have checked spot injections its just hard following a diagram because some ppls legs are bigger/smaller more muscular etc etc. If someone doesnt mind taking my photo and drawing a cirle around they would personally inject. Cheers

    You got to try yourself, to find the right spot but personally I hate quads.

    The spot you have circled is a go just be sure to aspirate. The last time I hit that spot I put the needle perfectly in to a vein and drew quite a bit of blood when i tried to aspirate.. Everyone is slightly different what I like to do is gently push the needle against the skin and now with lots of experience I can generally tell if i am near a nerve. It takes practice, dont worry even if you hit a vein it really is no big deal.

    so if i hit that spot. Aspirate and no blood comes in. That means its successful?

    yeah sink the 1" pin about 85% of the way in leave it out just a little. When you pull the plunger back and see the bubble(s) not blood your good to go. The less movement of the needle the better. Generally virgin muscle has more pip.

    all good fellas. i put the needle in. Aspirated and a bubble came in. Not sure if multiple bubbles, just 1 maybe cant remember lol. Then proceeded to inject, leave needle in for a 10 sec then pulled out. This succesful???. Got a tiny cough after. Think i was NEAR a vein not sure.

    so if i inject in another area of my quad, say further up in the middle, or lower down etc. and it goes as well as that, does that mean its succesful?

    You can inject basically anywhere there is muscle. Some spots just have higher risks of hitting veins and nerves. You will likely feel some discomfort in the next day or 2 where you injected which is normal for the first time the muscle is injected and generally happens in every spot the first time you inject.

    how do u know if u havent injected into muscle? When u aspirate and those bubbles come in does that mean your in the muscle?
    what else can u inject into that. Even injecting subq works tho?

    If its not deep enough it will be more painful and usually leaves bump or swelling. If you sink the needle properly you have nothing to worry about.

    it's fine for glutes unless your bf is really high.

    upper right quadrant is basically no fat.

    That spot looked a bit far to the side if it was meant to be a glute stick.
