    1 1/2 inch 23G pin..too long for shoulder?

    Im 6'3 200 lbs 10% BF I have 5/8 in pins but they dont feel like they get deep enouhg into the muscle to disperse the goods for best absorbtion. So i have been using 1 1/2 inch in my butt.....is that size for butt only for someone thin like me?? Or can i use it in delts quads etc...

    I use 23g 1.5 inch in the glutes

    And a 25g 1 inch for all other injection sites

    At your weight and height I would assume they should be fine for you to

    I personally wouldnt' go 1.5 in the delts, unless you got bowling balls for delts. you could cut one inch off the cap of the needle and put it back on the needle and only go 1 inch in the delt if you want.
    I actually use 5/8" and have no prob. i am 5'11" and 225 right now.

    I like using 25 g 1 inch pins. At 10% bf a 1 inch pin will work great. Warm the gear and it goes in like butter

    Yep, what tone says... Just don't stick it all the way in. You know, just the tip. Every guy knows how to do that or at least tells her that.

    27g 3/4" pins work great for me on the delts as long as I don't inject under 1.5ml and penetrate my skin all the way with the pin.

    I have used 23g 1.5 in needles in the delts with no problem. I never insert all the way though, just incase the needle breaks. I go about 1 1/4 inch.
