    Question length of the pin? with im inj

    Going to be starting a nice 12 plus cycle of test cyp. Product is legit. My question is regarding the darts. I only have 1.5 to .75 inch pins. I usually pin in the glutes FYI. Any advise?

    1 1/2 inch is what is recommended for glute injections.

    MAJOR typo in dart sizes. I have 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch length pins. Talked to my source that I've known for my whole life. Told me that those darts are fine. He uses them. Just go more towards the hip

    you can order pins cheap all over the internet

    1.5 for glutes, 1 for everywhere else, maybe 5/8 for delts if you're small

    family or not if he's advocating using a 1/2" pin I wouldn't take any more advice from him. 3/4" would be ok for delts, but I still prefer 1".

    What would you guys suggest for quads. I pinned the 3/4 inch into the upper no fat upper rear hip area. Kept the pinned push deep. Through the soft tissue.

    Would the 3/4 inch darts be good for quads?

    1" for the quads man. 3/4 would mean you pretty much have to stick the needle all the way in which isnt safe. unless you have a really low body fat in ur quads dont use 3/4

    1" is all I got, so it would not work or is it just preferred?

    1/2 is too small for almost anything. If youve never pinned before, forget glutes, go for something that you can actually see and reach with accuracy. Delts are easy, 5/8 to 1 inch will do. Quads are also very easy, 1 inch to 1.5 will work.
