It doesnt matter. Are you shooting it EOD

[kenny1022]

Monday and Thursday 250mg twice a week.

Thats no good, you need to shoot prop ed or eod.

the 30mgs of prop that is in sust dont need injectinging eod,x2 per week is fine.

agreed!

[kenny1022]

Thanks guys. I injected, had my coffee and am ready for the day!!!

[ThatGuyYeahHim]

For sust 250, (which is a good beginner cycle) its thought of as best to have 500mg p/w broken down into 2 shots, 3.5 days apart.

Edit. Forgot to mention, let us know how you go. You *may* experience some pain in the muscle which is not unusual. If I remember correctly youve done your homework and know about hygiene so I wont bother going there.

[kenny1022]

Thanks. I'm going Saturdays and Tuesdays. Yes, pain/soreness is felt about 5 - 6 hours later. Sadly, it abates just in time for the next shot, alternate butt cheek, at least.

Second injection administered today. No noticeable effects but then again I do feel a little cranky/snappy, not sure if it's from the soreness, the gear or it's just mental.

[ThatGuyYeahHim]

Kenny - dont worry, its usually just the 1st time. And sust is pretty good, so they say (Ive just started it, 1st week weeks used test prop and actually never got pain. Both Sust shots ive had did hurt a bit when walking, sitting certain ways etc. Ill let you know how the next one goes if i remember. Which will be tomorrow night.. yay. Cant wait

[kenny1022]

Yeah I hope eventually it'll start mentally feeling like a good sore like getting a good pump at the gym. Someone also wrote that the soreness goes away as your glutes gets used to the injections. Don't know if that's verified.

Injection was at 5:30 AM this morning and the soreness is starting to settle in two hours later. I figure it's an IM shot so I could probably take Advil, right?

I'm pretty sure my technique is on-point but here goes anyway. I clean the area and the top of the vial with rubbing alcohol, measure out my dosage removing as much air from the shot as possible, 1ML, and place the needle perpendicularly against my surface of my glute in the upper side quandrant holding the syringe like a pen. I apply pressure until the needle breaks in and enters about 1 1/4 inches deep, without moving the needle too much I inject the gear after aspirating, and in one motion pull out the needle quickly. Whole process from needle entering takes about 75 - 100 secs. Minimal bleeding.

Youre using sust 250... is this in a vial or an amp? Sounds like a vial, just want to double check.
Either way, you should probably replace the pin after drawing. Then expel any air in the barrel. You will probably get a drop or two (which is good, it apparently acts as lubricant)
There are several posts (one from today or yesterday with pictures of a pin after several different uses) that mention the advantages of using a clean pin for the injection.

Otherwise your technique is excellent.

[ThatGuyYeahHim]

Oh and not 100% sure about pulling the pin out "quickly".. I take a little time.. sort of the same time I take to put it in. I think this will come down to personal preference but I just have it in my head that if you take it slowly the muscle can close around the juice.
Read a post from someone where the guy pulled the pin 1/2 way out and just paused for a few seconds and then removed it fully. I dont go to that extreme though.

the pain will go away. l finished my sust cycle with prop and it was painless.
sust for me hurt a lot worse l was sore just like you up until the day of next injection. lf youre not you should be pinning more than just glutes this will help oil from building up and stop the pain from getting worse later,Also you should make sure and slowly inject this will help alot. if you push too fast you will bruise the muscle causing more pain. Some say a minute per cc.

[kenny1022]

I'll look into using a new pin if it helps. My sustanon, SU-250, is a 10 ML vial.

[gymmonster]

agreed... switching pins will help a lot too

[kenny1022]

Ok - the dead leg feeling to the glutes is setting in (6 hrs post injection). Can I take Advil? Any other suggestions? Oh and massaging the area after the pinning did nothing...

Thanks!

Did another shot of sust this morning. Went smoothly. Its been about 7 hours and no pain what so ever.

[kenny1022]

just a follow-up, i pinned again this week and unfortunately nicked a vein which caused half a teaspoon of bleeding upon withdrawal of the needle. no big deal but scared me at the time because i didnt know what i did plus it was my left glute which is harder for me to pin probably because i'm a righty.

other than the blood, everything went smoothly and yes, the soreness is a lot less than when i first started pinning 3-weeks ago. i guess the glutes develop a tolerance.

oh and i have some newbie advice about getting the air out of the chamber from personal experience. when drawing the gear out the vial, deliberately draw out more then you need, this will also bring in some unwanted air. with the syringe still in the vial tap the air to the top, then reinject into the vial any unneeded gear until you reach your dosage amount. this usually gets rid of the air bubbles and keeps you from losing any gear as it goes right back into the vial.

peace.

i dissagree...sust really should be injected eod to take advantage of the prop in it....that being said you can inject every 3.5 days and you will be ok but why didnt you just go with test e or c if thats the protocal you wanted to go with....good luck op.....

Totally agree, my 1st 2 weeks I did it 2 times a week and was pretty sore. Now I do it every other day, less CC's per shot, take about 1 minute to inject it and 0 pain. Also, may be mental but I feel a more consist feeling of strength.

i got drawn into the whole sustanon has 4 different types of test best of all worlds hype. also, i was told the side effects were less with sust. next cycle, i'll prob go enath.

i stick with 2 pins a week (500mg a week). supposedly, the amount of test prop in it is so low twice a week is fine but again, this is my first cycle.

[discobizkid]

I've had great results with Sust once every 7 days. Very few sides with great gains.

Id have to agree here, alot of guys shoot Monday wed and friday as well.

If you can only handle pinning twice a week stick with C or E

Noted. It's my first cycle and no matter how much research I do, there's always room for improvement. I'll keep you guys posted on the results.

Hello:

When is the best time to inject sustanon - in the morning or evening? Does it matter? I usually work out after work around 5pm.

Thanks!

Ken

Just be consistent with your times. Say 6pm on MON/THURS.

[kenny1022]

I want to adjust my pinning schedule from a Tues / Sat to a Mon/Thursday. Any suggestions? Being Saturday, I pinned this morning. Should I just pin again Tuesday then wait until Thursday to pin?

Exactly, agreed.
