2nd in the same spot?

It can/will happen if its a virgin muscle.

wasnt the same spot

[wildcyde6942]

the heating pad helped alot thanks very much.
should I alternate sides or just pin a different spot?

Try rotating between delts and glutes. I personally never shoot glutes. I find delts and pecs much easier.

Hi,
I use a 22g 1.5" pin for the glutes. if this is your first cycle it will hurt untill you develop some scar tissue, it will get better as long as you inject well, not too quick etc...

I second that.....1.5" for sure, glutes are the way to go...as well as alternation. When I do Prop I hit my traps with a 5/8".

another suggestion, inject SLOW. I think most of the pain is due to injecting to fast

1" pin is too short for glutes get your hands on some 23G 1.5" pins for glutes. 1" pins are good for all other injections though.
