Does a quad injection hurt?

[snorkles]

Hey guys I am in my 3rd week of my test/deca cycle and I have always been taking the shots in my shoulders. And every time I end up training with the aid of painkillers. So today I decided to take it in my quad. And I am amazed that It was painless. When I take the shot in my shoulder as soon as I am injecting and as soon as I take off the syringe out I am in pain.

This is the site where I injected the test/deca. The site is a bit sore but NOTHING compared to the shoulder soreness and pain. Can someone assure me that it is a good site since I am totally confused now that I am not feeling any pain,especially since its the first time in my quads.

Well you might be walking around like a cripple tomorrow and you might not. Only tomorrow and the next day will tell you for sure.

Everyone seems to be different. Regardless whether I use hg or ug gear I always get swelling and soreness, but shoulders and chest are the least and surprisingly don't interfere with my lifting.

Quad shots and ass shots on the other hand make me effin sore and make squats a test in pain tolerance, literally.

So I guess you'll find out. Some guy's pump 2-3cc's in quads or ass cheeks like it's nothing. I haven't pinned over 1.5cc in a single inject, but this next cycle I will be hitting up 1.5cc 2x a week so it'll be a learning experience.

Is the spot I injected in my quad a right spot? Just to make sure I did everything right when I inject into my shoulder I feel sore instantly it hurts like hell!

thanks for the reply!

You might be pumping a higher volume of oil into your shoulders than they can handle.

If you are injecting test/deca in 1 shot or even 2 shots in the same shoulder then the amount of gear might be more than your shoulders can comfortably carry atm. Quads are a much bigger muscle so they can handle more cc's.

I also think this is the main reason. I am taking 1.5ml into my shoulders.

Quad shots are stupid and not needed. Why risk the chance of the feeling of being crippled. Whats wrong with the glutes, triceps. 1.5ml in the shoulder is nothing. Are you sure your gear isn't made with too much Benzyl Alcohol by some underground lab that doesn't know what they are doing?

I've used quads almost exclusively since the early 90's, and never had a problem, and only rarely had pain and even then only minimal pain - even with prop or suspension. I love quad shots...easy to see what you are doing, easy to control your hands, easy to clean, etc...

No the gear is good 100% (can I name it in here ?)
believe me mate, I cannot train without pain killers whenever I take the shot in my shoulder, especially my left arm. I dont want to relive that sleepless night I had one week ago. it was hell.

Nothing wrong with quad shots... its easy to pin there and plenty of deep muscle .
Half way between your knee and hip on the outer sweep, spotinjections.com will show you.

I dont know if it was my test or what .

But quad injections hurt so fucking bad for up to 2 days after injection , I was limping it hurt so bad.

People say after a few shots the pain goes away. But that wasnt the case for me .

Do quads quite regular. Lots of muscle to work with. Have some discomfort but none to much to alter my day.

Only time I have found it effected me to a can't move was when I injected prop into my calves. Never, never, never do that again.Felt like a person with a club foot. couldn't put it down for 3 days.

^^^Bro thats too funny, Prop in the calves^^^ I reg do Adequan in my outer calv and as long as I massage the hell out of it afterwards no prob. Tried some BD deca in my inner calv once, wont do that again...
OP, heat that shit up before you pull it out of the vial. I put my vials in a sink of HOT water till its warm to the touch. Then after the injection I heavily massage the area. After that I dont even know Ive injected. I know there is some argument about massage afterwards, but it works for me. I shoot quads and calvs all the time pain free. But I have good gear too and thats a big part of it.

The first time I ever injected was my right quad and I walked like a handicap person for at least 3 days. The pain was unbearable the 2nd day when I was sleeping but that was because I had my girlfriend massage it for a long time, causing it to become aggrivated and enflamed.

You can avoid all this by not flexing when you inject, don't move the pin around when it's in your quad, and leaning on your opposite leg through the day and you should be good.

Everyone is different, but for me, quads don't hurt any more or less than anywhere else. For delts, I have to go for the rear head, which seems to hurt less the next day. If I hit the front head of dead in the center of the delt, it burns! But when I confronted the nurse who wanted to give me my flu shot in the front head of the delt, she said I was the opposite of most. She did as I asked, and gave it in the rear head, and it was fine. She was surprised.

Moral of the story is, (using the known "safe" injection sites), try pinning various places and find the spots that are best for you.

~depends what esters
~depends what UG or Human Grade brand you use
~depends on HOW you inject it

Exactly. I haven't even shot anywhere else, sometimes I think about my glutes but it seems too difficult to reach. I can handle a sore quad but its never bad enough to where I'm limping. Quads are the stuff.

 

[lostin760]

I am two weeks into my first cycle and 3 shots in. So far I have only injected quads. There was a little soreness but nothing major the first time for each location. I also have some 400 MG/ML test and decided to try that out, I shot about .6 CC into the quad I used to first time and I felt absolutely no pain the next day. I guess it depends on the person, I plan on incorporating Delts, Pecs, and Ventrogluteal.

What actually causes the majority of post inject pain? The type of compound/ester, the oil, or the needle piercing the muscle?

Agreed.
Quad shots are convenient and easy. I guess I'm lucky and don't experience much pain there.

OP, hard to tell from your pick if your in the right spot. Looks a little low, but like i said, hard to tell from the pic.
