    Best pin for trap injections?

    Is 1 inch too long for traps. Should I go with 5/8 and are trap injections painful?

    25g 1" is what I use, but 5/8 is fine.

    There are plenty of other places to pin than your traps, never done them and wouldn't want to. Stick with biceps, triceps, delts, quads, glutes and chest imho

    I only use them when I'm running short esters. Rotation, yes. They're very easy to pin, they're right there. Delts are scarred more than I like. So it's pecs, lats and traps mostly for me. I can't keep a steady hand on the glutes or the triceps. Trying to avoid quads now-a-days. (yeah yeah, do a victory dance)

    ps. Have you been to the doctor lately? You have some sort of massive growth on your calves.

    In all honesty, I have got delts down to a T. Delts dont hurt anymore because I know the sweet spot to pin. Glutes however I can never hit that sweet spot and never steady enough. I usually get pip a couple of days after glute pins that last for about 4 days. Very bothersome when I'm trying to sleep or bend over. I guess I could look into pinning chest too.

    I usually ask Austinite first and then do the opposite of what he recommends for pinning. Lol

    Learned my lesson the hard way.

    - calves
    - glutes
    - forearms
    - traps
    - quads.

    Won't do forearm, calves, or traps again.....well, might try traps one more time. I wouldn't be me if I didn't fvck my shit up a few times a year.
