sore from first test e injection

**chaps** · 11-03-2013, 12:30 PM

Hi guys.

I just did my first ever injection of test e into my quad. Used 25 gauge needled, just started with small injection of 50 to gauge any reactions. Process was painless, no bruising. But i'm pretty stiff and a little sore the next day. Is this just the whole "virgin muscle" thing? When I do my other quad next, will I go through the same thing?

Thanks

Ya u sure will quads are a bit harder for virgin muscles glutes are the easiest, ur first cycle ull experience lots of different shots hahha

Lots of ppl get sore quads after inj some even can't walk for days lol if you've got a good steady hand & technique theres no worries

I'm more apt now, to lean towards Austinites theory that there is no such thing as "virgin muscle", just "virgin injection technique".

Good call babies have virgin muscles hahha
First inject was like I had Parkinson's disease lol

Agree with Austinite also on the "no such thing as virgin muscle." Warm the oil by holding the syringe under warm running water for a couple of minutes. Don't let the water trickle onto the luer lock area. Inject SLOWLY! The more patient you are with the plunger, the less PIP you'll experience. In my opinion.

Thing is i wasn't sore really till the next day. The day of I was fine. Is that normal?

Its just virgin muscle it will get better. I shoot quads all the time and no problems.

Quads are a hit or miss for me. Sometimes no pain, other times I hit a nerve.

I started a test e cycle last week. Did 2 shots 1 in each quad. After first shot I was sore for few days. Today I done a shot in my glute - nothing at all didn't even really feel the needle go in

Just got done with a cycle pinning quads only. If it was sore it was always the next day never the same day. I also agree with the rest on the virgin muscle it's technique and getting used to it.
