SUCCESS!! Well, I finally broke open an amp without any major problems. I used an index finger and thumb grip on both the top and bottom of the amp keeping my thumb over the blue dot with the alcohol swab package as a cover and snapping the top back towards me in one quick motion. It broke off in one piece and though there was a slightly jagged edge left on the amp there wasn't any glass shards to speak of. I found out that if an amp has painted rings around the neck that means that you do not have to score them but if they don't have the rings than you will have to break out a knife and file a slit. I hope that info is helpful to someone so you don't end up like me a few days ago frothing at the mouth and cursing up a storm because you keep getting glass in your oil.
As to the shot itself I ran into a little trouble on that end of things as well-Once I had the needle in place the plunger would not depress no matter what so I had to pull it out essentially wasting a perfectly good hole. I changed the needle and flicked the syringe because I thought maybe there was an air bubble I couldn't see that was stopping it from going in. Anyway, I went for round two in my other glute and this time it did go in though I was surprised at how much force I had to use to get it in. I have to say I was surprised at how painless the whole process was. The 23g needle looked like it might make me feel it but I honestly barely noticed it going in. Some other observations-about 20 minutes after the shot I noticed an odd taste in my mouth though I could be crazy. Secondly, and this I'm sure of is when I hit the heavy bag an hour later I got a crazy pump in my forearms that I've never gotten before when working the bag. Is it even possible that the juice is working this quickly? I'm using 100mg mast prop/100mg primo. I did start using creatine a few days ago so maybe it's that. Who knows?
