    needle size for glutes?

    is 25g 1.5 inch good for glute injections?

    or what do you guys use?

    yes. 25g 1.5 inch would be the most common for glutes.

    some people w/ low boyfat opt to use 1 inch needles. either works.

    Like said above those will be fine, but 25g's are slow and as noles said the 23g are faster and not much bigger.

    I like 23g 1.5"... Glutes are a pain to reach sometimes. Get comfy.

    it very much depends on the type of liquid your gonna pass through that pin. thick oils will not go through a 25 gauge pin it will blow the needle off trust me. i like 20 gauge to draw with and 22-23 to shoot, 25 gauge is ok with water based solutions or maybe warm thin oil.

    I went from 23 to 25 and injecting was much slower. Not sure if I like 25 yet.
