Trick for Delt/Quad injections with 1.5" needles

[MAXIMA5]

I think I found a good way to utilize 1.5" needles to shoot quads, delts, and other low-fat muscles.

While I've been waiting for 1" needles to arrive, I rigged a needle cover to help me use the 1.5" needles I had to shoot quads and delts.

I cut an the tip off an extra needle cover so that when placed back over a fresh needle, only 1" is exposed, making it easier to fully press the pin in. The plastic guard acts as abrace, like a second hand would, which allows you to self-aspirate a delt shot without the needle moving.

Obviously, the short-guard would be wiped down with alcohol before each use.

See photos below.

cool.. I just use 1.5" for everything and inject accordingly...

i think when people start making changes you take more of a chance of infection. ever had 1, it aint a pretty sight. i never start gear until i have all i need.

[MAXIMA5]

what are you talking about? how is this unsanitary? you take the guard off the needle, and slide the short guard on, and then shoot. If you're too uncoordinated not to touch the needle in this process, then you shouldn;t be shooting shit into your body.

[restless1]

ive used 1.5 for quads. im coordinated enough not to have to modify SHIT at all.

[MAXIMA5]

I didn't mean to get defensive - but I think it's annoying when people keep repeatedly posting redundant information over and over again when it doesn't relate to the thread.

Here's an example. Someone posts a thread about asking for advice on their new cycle, and 20 newbies chime in with "how's your diet and cardio first?"

Here's another example - I post a suggestion to help people use 1.5" needles to do every body part, and someone naturally posts, "don't drop the syringe in the toilet before you shoot, you might get an infection and those are bad.."

get my point?

basically, anyone with at least 4 functioning brain cells knows to be sanitary when sticking sharp objects into their muscles, so no need to post the obvious.

that is a pretty clever way of doing it..i dont see how it is unsanitary as the inside of the guard has to be just an sanitary as the needle...i think youd be fine for only a few times..plus your 1" are on their way

I do this also, works fine.
Its just a depth guage..

Thank you! A depth guage is always a good idea, especially because everyone's body is different. Coleman could probably use a 1.5" all the way in a delt, but 1" is a safe depth for most ordinary mortals.

i may be a new1 to this board. 5'9" 274pds. i dont think im new to gear. people should be ALL prepared before starting gear. YOU WASNT. THAT SHOULD BE THE POINT YOU MAKE.

Yeah, I was prepared for glutes and quads, I just thought this was a good idea to make one handed delts easier.
Oh, congratulations on being a human bowling ball.

[MAXIMA5]

Enough said - you've already labelled yourself as an instigator on this board by now.

why not just stick it alittle more than halfway in. i have also been using a 1/2 inch slin pin for test shots in quad.

That's what I usually do for quads (go over 1/2 way in) , but I wanted to try this for delts. Quads are easy because you have two free hands. I was never planning on trying delts in the first place, but I wanted to start a better site rotation.

[SS1476]

Its all good Maxima5, Ive done
this many times, without an issue.
Ignore the instigators..restless
is a little restless today..

good point

I wouldnt use a 1/2" that is jmo and for the depth gauge I have been doing that for years not a big deal at all, and for the instigator you are an ass hole leave the guy alone he was just starting good thread for a change, trying to give some quality info, and it is perfectly sanitary

[MAXIMA5]

yeah, I know.

He wouldn't like me when I'm angry.

[SS1476]

[JR.SHRED]

wow me neither

[MAXIMA5]

No hard feelings Restless. I'm just busting your balls. Have a good one. Bill Bixby wants to go to the gym now. Later.

[restless1]

no hard feelings. i believe when you get on board and start telling people the wrong way todo gear eventually someone gets hurt.i preach being prepared. sorry if that makes me an instigator.syringes are cheap. if you can afford gear why not needles. i hope the bowling ball comment isnt the best you got. i work my ass off to be this way

What is a "LOW FAT MUSCLE"

[MAXIMA5]

What is a "LOW FAT MUSCLE"

a smaller muscle without a thick layer of fat covering it. A glute would have more fat to penetrate than a delt. That's what I meant.

[primetime1]

quick question on this topic while we all at it here. is it ok to use 1.5 is delts cuz thats how i do and i never had issues so far. been doin it for quite a while as i dont think 1 inchers go deep enough into the muscles.
is there anything bad about using 1.5 for delts???

It's not a wrong way to do gear, just an alternate way to utilize a longer needle in a small muscle group.
It's exactly the same as using a 1" needle, so give it a rest. You can preach and talk down to me when someone "gets hurt" by using a depth gauge to help them do a delt shot.

No, you're fine. I personally wouldn't go all the way into a delt with a 1.5".
1" is the best depth for a delt, quad, lat shot. so most people use a 1" needle or leave part of a 1.5" exposed. Maybe you have enormous delts, in which case you may be able to go almost all the way in with a longer needle.

[Irishguy22]

I agree with maxima although you should be prepared and have everything you need before you start sometimes shit happens and you have to deal with it and this is a good way of de****g with it that has nothing to do with being unsanitary

[MAXIMA5]

Thank you Irishguy and all the other adults who backed me on this. And it's not that I was unprepared. I was getting tired of quad and one handed glute shots, so I wanted to try a delt. Using a depth gauge was a good way to prevent over-penetration and to steady the pin for aspiration. I think full insertion without aspiration is more likely to cause problems than using a depth gauge.

BTW, my 1" needles came today, so now I am PREPARED AND NO ONE IS GOING TO DIE.

[DEVLDOG]

I knew what you ment,just being sarcastic.

actually when I started using gear 18 yrs ago we only could get 1 1/2" pins and always did it this way.cut them off right above the smooth portion on the tip.

sorry to bust you bubble,but a good idea for shareing non the less

[MAXIMA5]

thanks, and here I thought I thought of something new.

[mindongoal]

maxi

if you dont have improvise. not bad, not bad at all

[DEVLDOG]

thanks, and here I thought I thought of something new.

enjoy bro !!

[primetime1]

thanks brotha.. appreciate the response above. i dont really have huge delts but i still go all the way in, i guess i like the feelin of knowing the juice is in the there doin its thing, stead of worring about it not being absorbed fully from not goin in deep enough..
thanks again

[MAXIMA5]

makes sense. I've just never had a doctor use anything larger than a 1" in a delt, so I figured there was a reason for it. I'm glad to see you haven't had any problems going deep with a 1.5". It's probably just personal preference, although I think a 1" is plenty for most muscles except glutes.

[lowstace]

yeah max I agree man when people ask a cycle and all thses guys start bashing lots of player haters...they have a thought that oh know only i can use juice no one else should cause i am smarter then every one lots dudes get that way

I actually don;t mind when a vet or mod, or experienced user corrects me or offers advice. That's why we're on this board in the first place. It's just the Peanut Gallery comments that get under my skin.

that shit is mad smart, lol, love it, thanks
