First try pinning Delt

[btrizzyb]

I plan on pinning my delts for the first time tonight. When I checked out spot injections site it looks like both sets of pics are going straight down into the muscle. I only have 1.5" pins right now and would hate to push in to far, can I go in from the front of the delt since I have a longer needle? Also is 1.5mL to much to pin in a delt the first time?

On the delt you plan on pinning....take your opposite hand....place your fore finger on the upper part where the muscle and bone connect. Spread your fingers so your pinky is at the lower part of your delt where the muscle meets arm, pin right between your two middle fingers. 1.5 should be enough.....under the assumption you've trained enough to have some shoulder mass. This is what I do.

Don't bury the needle.
Order more as well! Site sponsor has them.

Just trying to pin somewhere besides my glutes, my traps are decent size, but not sure im comfortable pinning them yet

Well I took my first pin in the delt. Used a 1.5 inch and only pushed about an inch in. Everything seemed to go well, it's sore when I stretch the muscle now (reach straight up over my head) but I was expecting that to an extent being a virgin muscle.

1.5 should be fine in the shoulder. I use a 1in in biceps. Def more meat in your delt than bicep. Or as you did, just don't go all the way down

As stated above, get some 1" pins when you get a chance. Yes, 1.5 cc's is ok to pin. I go up to 2.5 cc's and have never had a problem.

i use 1.5" on delts and push needle all the way in, 1.5cc, works fine for me..

Whatever works, works. Just really no need to go that deep and do that much more tissue damage.
