What is your bf%? I use 23 ga 1.5" for glutes and I would suggest that to you as well. Unless you are at like 4-5%bf
personally i would be fine using a 1'' on glutes as i am quite lean in that area but as above post stated, it depends on bodyfat, if you are unsure then use 1.5''
I've always used 1" for glutes, as long as your not fat it's fine.
Just use the 1.5" to make sure, you won't feel any difference. It just breaking the surface of the skin is what you feel, after that, slides right in with no pain.
I am at 9% now but even when I was at 6-7% I still preferred using 1.5's. One time I used a 1" and got a bubble(maybe a abcess...not sure) in my ass. It went away after a week or two. I was probably at 10-11% bf when this happened though... But since then I stick to 1.5" in the glutes and 1" for quads and delts.
even at 15-16 percent bodyft u can use a 1 inch. u just have to know were to pin aka up high to the outside of the glute. painless, sometimes it even tickles a bit! except when u gotta redo ur shot 5 times!! LOL
tho 1.5 inch would be safer if unsure and doesnt hurt anymore as it only hurts breaking the skin.
I stay around 9-10% BF and have never had an issue with 1" pins in the glute. Hell, at 4-5% you could easily use a slin pin for IM!
I am at 9% bf I guess I should start using 1" pins
LOL, whats the big deal about using 1.5" needles. The goal is to make sure that you get is totally into the muscle with no if, ands, or buts. You want no leakage also. Is it a fear thing or what? I had that fear before, but it wont feel no different, trust me, stick that thing all the way in. I say if you are 3-4% BF, still use 1.5" unless you like weight 120lbs at 6', but if thats the case, you shouldn't be hitting the gear.
I never shoot my ass....to awkward of a position for me (my muscles are so big I cant get my arms around) hahahahahaha
I used to hate injecting in my glutes. It is a awkward position. ED injections have made me get used to pinning in a lot of different locations.
I would use 1.5" but the place i went to did not carry that size.
i used 23g 1" for my cycle. didn't have any issues. if you can get 1.5", might as well get it. but you shouldnt have issues using a 1"
