    Deltoid injection: which needle?

    Hallo guys,
    Until now I've ever inject in buttocks, but I want to try in deltoids now.
    My needle actually is 0.65 x 30mm 23G x 1 3/16"
    Is it ok for deltoids or not?

    In alternative I have insulin syringe, needle is: 0,4 x 12,7mm 27G x 1/2"
    but it seems too short.....

    Help!!!

    I used 23g and couldn't use my arm for 4 days. Don't think thats common though tbh.

    My research leads me to understand 25g is best for Delts!

    23-25 ga x 1" is fine. Depends on what your injecting and the volume.

    Good! Always a good idea to order up extra tips. 18's for loading, extra 25's and even 27's, they're cheap. Then you have options. Smaller is always better if you can push the oil through it plus it forces you to push slower resulting in less pip.

    Yes.. I should order some other types... I have 27G (insulin syringes) but I never used this needle because it is not painless and I always exchange the needle with 23 (also for Hcg) because it is painless while 27 punches with much pain!!

    if I only need a cc or less of say Tren ace, then I pin my FRONT delt with an insulin syringe no problem (1/2") . If I have a lot more volume of gear then the SIDE delt is better and use 23g x 1" . I'll use an insulin syringe for biceps and pecs as well (but I like running short esters and pinning 1-2x per day is common and having those slin pins pre-loaded and ready to go is convenient).

    I've also got some 25gx 5/8" which works great for injecting my chest and can put in much more volume then the insulin syringe.
    just experiment and find what works for you

    by far the easiest fastest and smoothest place to inject for me. way easier to grab a pre-loaded pin and hit my bicep or upper chest, then anywhere else . I do the same thing with the peptides I run (heck in the middle of my workout I can grab a pre-loaded pin of IGF-Des and hit each bicep and then continue on with my arm workout).

    i inject long esthers daily to minimize the sides and to try and maintain a constant amount in my system. I will use an insulin syringe in the frontal and side delts (29 g 1/2").Im going to have to try chest.
    Maybe some day the biceps. Quads do not work for me.

    upper inner chest and outer side bicep. if we are going to be on TRT for 30 years and injecting other AAS all the time then the more injection sites we can rotate the better (and the slin pin will limit the scar tissue as well)

    Depends on the size of your delts. 1 inch should be fine.

    29 gauge 1/2 inch slin pin. Damn. No need to use a bigger pin unless you're shooting more than 1ml. Even then, I'd just pin twice with the baby needles.

    I have used 1.5" needles at half staff 25 guage on delt bicep chest. I may consider slin pins for chest and biceps in the future. Lotta pokes if you are shooting 4ml but I kinda like it anyway. 1.5ml of gear is all I dare shoot in each bicep now. I pushed it with two and regretted it for a week. Delts are about the same to me 1.5ml each.

    I can imagine trying to shove my tren I just used up through a slin pin. Too damn thick. I folded a pluger over pushing it through a 25 ga 1.5" the other day and folded the needle over and had to reload. Barrel pin and plunger looked like a "Z".

    The single biggest issue for me on self injections on my glute is keeping the gear out of the fat. My ass has had enough pokes that I dont even feel the needle go in unless the previos injection left an oil pocket between my ass fat and glute.

    couple weeks back I pinned my front delt with 3cc of NPP, tren ace, tren suspension, because I was too lazy to split it up and pn 1.5cc in each delt . needless to say I won't be doing that again , all that gear migrated down my left arm and fucked my workouts up for a week

    Exactly my issue. Shit runs downhill. End of last comp I couldn't flex my biceps for shit in the pics. My avatar shot brought me to my knees almost.
