    I feel the AS more when injected to leg than glute?

    I know it sounds absurd, but I swear I feel the effects better!! injecting into my quad than my glute? Is this possible? I would just alternate between legs, but they stay sore for days as opposed to my glutes which only get a little sore for maybe a day?

    it is pretty standard for your quads to me sore more then glutes. I know many who do not pin quads cause of the pain.
    What is your bf and what size needle are you using. I know I few who need a 1.5 imo for glutes cause there bf is a little to high.

    I so would be using a 1.5 for the glutes. you may not be getting it deep in the muscle at all bro. I only recommend 1 inch for guys who are 12% and below but thats just me

    ouch.....that would be a lot of wasted gear....I really can tell the diff though...guess I will be going quads until I get longer. I have never done delts? will they hurt as much as quads?

    it totally varies from person to person. I always use my heat pad before I inject and I have very mild pain (I wouldnt even call it pain) after I do my quads and delts. Glutes I have zer pain. Delts are extremely easy also.

    Delts are super super easy, just can't hold more than 1cc

    Don't think you would "feel" the results from one IM location faster than another but who knows... I have only done quads and never once done glutes to myself. Just so easy to get to the quad, and using a 25g it takes time and I like being in a comfortable position. The next day I can feel slight pain around the injection site, but by day 2 it is hard to even tell. I push slow and if I feel pain I give it a break until the pain resides and continue. I try not to inject before leg day or before a bike ride. It's funny, after jabbing yourself for a while, you can tell that most nurses just don't give a shit and speed blast your glute, which causes more and longer pain than I have ever caused myself. Why the hell does everyone contort themselves around to jab a glute anyway? I think I would pin my calf before my glute.

    Because the glute is the second largest muscle in the body, next to the quad.

    I'm sorry, I just realized you were asking a volume question, not a pin length question.................................:....

    I've gotten up 3-1/2 ml in my delts, the pain was above average, but tolerable. Break the muscle in first, start with small injections.

    i used to be able to hold 3cc in each delt...... it has gone down to 2cc on eod pins with once in awhile leakage(small amount)..when that happens i go the other spots for a month or so.... on ed pins i rotate quad,glute,delt

    DELTS ARE MY FAVORITE SPOT BY FAR

    Yeah this is often the case...glutes are tougher to do but much less painful imo. I change it up so one week I do glutes and the next quads.

    Yes. 1.5 ml. Delts every 3 days. Sometimes while sleeping I feel a lil pain. Not sure if its from gear absorbing in or workout Burns.
