    same needle size?

    Do you stick with the same size needle for all sites, or go with a larger gauge or longer needle for glutes?

    I see. I'm a pretty small framed guy, think 1 1/2" is too long, especially for delts?

    Use this ^^^ as a guide.

    1 1/2 inch for delts!?! Not unless you're morbidly obese - in which case you wouldn't be using steroids anyway!
