Injection technique

[angerissues]

thanks very helpfull as im new to this

[BluPhin]

There is a plethora of good info in this post. I have been researching IM injection topic extensively the past few weeks due to PIP. I'm interested in trying the ventrogluteal site. However, I have been unable to educate myself to locate this site based the information available. Does anyone have an easy way to locate the site for self injection. It seems that most of the descriptions I find are for nurses administering to patients? I do not have a medical background so I don't know how to locate greater trochanter.

Anyone ever watch one of those videos and it says something along the lines of "I DO NOT CONDONE THE USE OF STEROIDS FOR BODYBUILDING." Oh so its fine for you to take testosterone to turn your body into what you want, and can't have without them.... but not ok for us. Makes sense. If you're a girl and want to be a guy, its perfectly fine to take anabolic steroids. If you're a guy, and want to be a bigger guy, its not ok!

WOW! Just saw this. nicely done and that post shows some hard work on your part. Thanks for sharing what you have learned. The sticky man........

An important part of calculating and administering an injectable medication is being able to accurately read the calibrations on the syringe. Smaller syringes will be calibrated into smaller volumes and as the syringe increases in size, the calibrations also get larger in volume.

The calibrations on a 1 mL syringe or tuberculin syringe will be in graduations equal to 0.01. An insulin syringe will label each graduation as units, whereas a generic 1mL syringe will label the calibrations as 0.1mL measures.

On a 3 mL syringe, each graduation will be equal to 0.1mL.

On the 5mL and 10mL syringe the graduations will be equal to 0.2mL.

Remember when reading the syringe, the measurement is taken from the part of the plunger that is in contact with the solution in the syringe.

Awsome thread and great info

[mojo999]

Good job bro... Wish I knew all this when i started out.. where were you 20 yrs ago!!! LOL... PIP is a part of life now... would miss it in a weird sorta way...

[Back2Big]

Sounds like the tren flu. I was told a lon time ago to use an anti e I.e. Adex or take 300mg aspirin each day.
Anti e coz a rapid increase in test levels can cause estrogen, plus all steroids lead to an increase in red blood cells which can lead to lethargy and illness aspirin will help reduce Rbc.
To be honest I just quit using it cause I felt the same way.

This is a great post!

Edited: Added some injection measurement info to the original post...

EDIT: Added Steroid Half life info!!!

[Lunk1]

any other suggestions from anyone??

[SkunKnuckles]

Thank you Lunk1, very, very helpful.

Great post lunk.

[kronik420]

another subq question:

if you were to do say, a 8 week test prop cycle, would you do all of the shots subq? or rotate subq and IM??

That is a good question Kronik...because my SubQ knowledge is limited I can only offer an opinion.

I would deduct that you could do it all subQ but a rotation of locations would be neccessary of course, Consider diabetics do tons of Subq pins but they also end up with scar tissue over time.

I think if your going to consider SubQ it should be an addition to IM, not a replacement!

thanks, i was thinking that too, i think i might go with prop for my 1st cycle, shorter cycle makes for easier recovery (and hopefully retain more gains)..

you ever pinned prop into virgin muscle??

LOL...of course. My first cycle was Prop. I only had pain for the first few pins but I'm sure as my nerves got better so did my injection technique.

While everyone always tell noobs E for the 1st cycle for less pinning, in the back of my twisted mind, I always think everyone should have to do EOD the first time lol.

I really like short cycles the best and have only been doing long esters due to my source only brewing Tren E but I have a cpl other sources I may try and get back in the short ester groove!

i can get both, all pharm grade, ill save the test e for the longer cycles with things like deca.. (deca's the only AAS that i can think of that doesn't have a short ester version..)

oh and eq and primo..

This needs to be up at the top..

[kronik420]

can you use a smaller gauge pin for prop?? is it still oil based? say 27g? or just stick with 25g?

[Lunk1]

They are all in the same oil, just depends on what the lab uses for a suspension. So prop is no diff than any other AAS. Yes you can use a 27g. I worry that if you get to small there is more wobble in the needle and more chance for PIP. 25G has won my heart!!
