Thread: Lean muscle means harder for oil to go in?

  1. #1

    Lean muscle means harder for oil to go in?

    I am not sure if that's the reason, I have piled up tons of muscle, the more muscles I put on it is getting hard to get oil into a more lean and hard muscle?

    Is it right or am I just hallucinating

    FYI it usually takes me a minute to get 1ml of test in and forget about it, the last 2 injections I took, they took 5 minutes each as the oil was injecting so slow (nothing came out after getting the needle out but if I inject the way I was injecting before, I felt the muscle was twitching so I went slow to prevent the twitching)

    Graduate into a 1.5” 18G...that’ll fix your problem

    Slow and steady wins the race. I use a 25G and will run 3 cc’s through. Takes me about 5 minutes but I don’t have any scar tissue as a result

    1” 25ga is what I use now

    I warm the oil before I spike it tho

    the larger the syringe the harder you have to push.
    it's a physics thing.

    so injecting with a 3ml syringe is going to be harder than with a 1ml syringe

    also...

    the fatter the needle, (smaller gauge), the less you have to push

    so injecting with a 23G is easier than a 25G

    back to the OP,

    I doubt your difficulty is coming from leaner muscles....

    perhaps scar tissue?? different carrier oil?

    25/27g 5/8" for everything, lol. Takes awhile, and even with these sometimes it's difficult, sometimes smooth as can be.

    Mine is on room temperature and it's pretty hot at the moment at my location.

    Hey, How do I deal with if this is due to scar tissues?

    It was smooth as for when I started, now it's difficult to push it in, I had to go so slow even on 23G 1.5'', before I could put the whole needle in but for last couple of injections I can only get in 1''

    Deep tissue massages help. Also stop injecting there for awhile. My left shoulder primarily gets more scar tissue than any of my other body parts... I left it alone for a month and she was much better.

    I like the scar tissue areas - I use em for painful b12 & vitamin c - shit burns, in the scar tissue, I don’t feel shit

    It could be that as the muscle becomes thicker, fuller, and harder, it becomes more difficult to insert a needle. Look at the animals we eat. Meats from sedentary or young animals are easier to chew than older, free-roaming animals. Venison, and other wild animals we eat, seem to have a more fibrous/drier meat that is more difficult to chew (so I've heard).

    Could also be scar-tissue.

    The legendary old-school wrestler Billy Graham talked about how before Hulk Hogan was famous, he came up to Billy in the nightclub (Billy being at the top back then), and asked him, "Brother I've been doing steroids for a year now and I have a golf-ball size lump in my ass, how do I get rid of it?" Billy said "You inject in a different spot brother!"

    Totally agree on this

    Me too exactly. I got a great deal online for a 100 count box. I forget now where.
