delts have been easy for me, 23/1"..... never tried quads, interested in bicep injections though.

I will never inject in bi's again except for IGF or GH. If you do Bi injects don't go more than 1cc IMO. I would do quads before bi's anyday.........11
 
Ok so im waiting on my gear to come in the mail and after the first few weeks im going to start injecting. But, they are in amps so i know there is a tool necessary to open them right? Also i have been searching filter needles to filter out any glass particulates. Should i order filter needles to draw, then change it and use another type of needle to inject, or will it cover both? Do all needles and syringes fit together or are there size differences? And im using Test so idk if there is a certain needle width that my be preferred to use, if it even matters. Any tips or personal suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

All of your questions have been answered above...
Needles and syringes are all compatible, and the type of drug doesnt matter.

I follow all the proper sanitation practices too.
The only difference is that I draw with an 18g and inject with a 20.
Been going for 27 years with only 1 abscess.
Of course with water based substances I will use a smaller gauge pin.
Very good advice from our mods.

good info. If you are using amps - use a FILTER needle to draw it up. There could be glass fragments that are too small to see inside the oil. The filter needle will catch these impurities.

were do you get the filters and how do they work?

Okay...so delts, buttocks, thighs and bis (holy-shit has anyone ever seen that dude that f'd his arms up form bi injects?)

Where else? Pecs? Calves? Tris?

Oh, and is there any merit to the argument that injections help the local site w/ growth.

Conversely, is the other argument true? That this is only a temporary thing?

You do not need a filter for drawing oil from an ampoule. The peices of glass that break off are not large enough to go through a pin. You need filters for making home brews, not for every injection so don't worry about them.

You can inject into any muscle that is large enough, read the first posts by Phreezer and visit spotinjections.com for injection sites.

1,That was sythol that did that.
2, IMO no, none. unless you call minor swelling localize growth.

One other thing, you have glutes, quads, delts even with short esters and ED injects you don't need any other spots, and if your doing 2xwk injects that is more than enough. Save the smaller BP for things like HGH,IGF etc or even low doses 1cc- of waterbased gear...............11

IMO many times gear gets a bad rap due to poor injection procedures. Aside from making sure you aspirate and everything is sterile you should take special care to keep the pin straight after insertion. If you have to, let go of the pin and it will straighten itself and you will know exactly what angle to maintain. Also its not a race so inject very slow. These things will cut down on injection pain and scar tissue. I think many people are nervous so they just want to stick and push to get it over with ASAP. Being calm and patient will do wonders.

MORE INJECTION TIPS




A shower always sofins the skin.

Warm your gear in your hands or in water

Hold the needle upside down let some gear leak out to help lube the needle.

A steady hand goes a long way

Pushing in steady and slow

Not wiggleing the needle around when asprating

Only pushing 1 ml per every 30 seconds

Once the gear is all pushed in wait 15 seconds before pulling the needle out

Once the needle comes out quickly put another freash alcohol swab on it ASAP

Always swap needles one to draw one to shoot with

Realx blow out some air while the needle is going in

Please add any other tips you have so this thread my grow. Also remember most steroids used for cutting cycle sting more than most. Remember i said most NOT all.

So injecting Test E in my delts will give me the same results as if I inject in my glutes??

Results have nothing to do with where you inject. You want to use for the most part larger muscles where you can get in at least an inch, after that its absorbed into your bloodstream and circulates your body.
glutes, quads, delts are main areas with some guys using tri's, bi's and other smaller muscles. Myself personally I stick to the big 3 with the exception of tri's with things like IGF-1 .............11

Personally, I've witnessed a lot of discussion about aspiration over the years. If it's in the glute, I'm not sure if it's needed. Still, if you want to be safe, then there is nothing wrong with aspiration.

Regarding site injections, I do not think they buy you anything as the AAS is absorbed and active in the bloodstream. Much discussion on this has also taken place over the years and most veterans will tell you that the glute is the safest place with regard to avoiding nerves. The only reason one might consider site injections is with frequent injections. Still, keep your dosages reasonable and this will not be necessary and will save your prostate and scalp in the long run.

Finally, I checked out the spot injection site cited above and I have to disagree with the glute pictures. I've done a ton of research on this topic. Divide your glute into four quadrants and go with the top one that is furthest out (near your hip). If you've ever received a shot from your doctor, this is EXACTLY where it is given (by the way, did you take note if they aspirated?). You should do the same. Stay away from the middle of the glute or you risk hitting a major nerve. I've NEVER had any problems. Do the same and neither will you.

My 2 cents...

The past four weeks have been good as far as injections. My last one in my glut casued severe soreness and a very bad bruise. Being the fact that this is out of the ordinary i was just wondering what went wrong?

This gets asked a lot in the AAS sec.

This is what I do.
1st take a hot shower, make sure you use a wash cloth on the area your injecting (you'll be surprised and the surface dirt left behind using soap only).

Next clean the tops of your vials and the area that your injecting with an alcohol pad. EVERY TIME.

Next take a new needle out of it's wrapper and draw your oils (I use a 20g needle for drawing). after you've drawn the amount of AAS you want. CHANGE THE NEEDLE. I use a 25g 1" or 1.5" for injecting on everything. some use 22or23g thats your choice but IMO smaller is better for less scare tissue.
Needles are cheap so never reuse them.

after you have cleaned area to be injected insert needle slowly. Don't ram the thing in, By inserting slowly if I get close to a nerve I'll know BEFORE I hit it. If you feel your getting close to a nerve don't pull needle out, simply back off a little and change direction slightly. Once needle is in all the way ASPERATE. (this means pull back on plunger a little and look for blood inside syringe) if everything looks good then continue with your injection. Inject slowly. After your done pull needle out and hold a cotton ball or clean TP over injection site for a minute or so and gently massage area.
If you get a little bleeding from injection site don't freak out, some times this is normal with certain body parts. Hold pressure till bleeding stops and your done.
Don't get into bad habits with injecting, take the time to do it right every time, in 16yrs Ive never had an infection or an abscess.
Hope this helps..........................11

should i see blood when i ASPERATE or not???

NO you should NOT. If you do pull needle out. What I do if this happens is inject it onto a tissue until all blood is out then replace needle and hit another spot. If you see blood when you asperate your in a vein. Now sometime AFTER you pull needle out there might be a couple drops of blood in there but that no big deal as the back pressure in the syringe will sometime pick up some blood while your pulling it out.................11
