    Needles for test enth

    Anyone see a problem with using 25g 1" needles to run test?

    I have 18g for drawing.

    I was planning on injecting in my quad.

    I like 25 ga. It makes me do a slow inject....if you can keep your hand fairly still it is best to go slow

    I've only shot in my glute before and am a little nervous about the quad. Anything to be aware of?

    Just make sure you check out siteinjections.com. My first inject was in my quad. Just go slow but steady. There are a good number of nerves in the quads that wont feel good but you should be able to feel when you are coming up on one.

    hmm, you're doing the quad as in the teardrop part, not the thigh as shown on spotinj?

    just follow the protocol:

    . push needle in
    . aspirate, if its all ok
    . inject the gear

    it will hurt tho , as its ur 1st time...ur fill like u cant walk , just so u know before hand

    I use either a 23G 1.5" for glute shots or a 22G 1.5" since it flows a lot easier...

    No, I meant that area. I guess thigh is a better term.

    I use 22g 1.5 also but considering 25g, dont want any scar tissue build up.

    dude JMO but f*ck quad injections. Hurts like a bitch. You'll love delts though. 23g 1" is perfect for delts!!! I prefer delts over glutes
