How important is it to pull back the plunger for blood?

[UK1Rage]

can any one tell me the importance of pulling back the plunger for blood when injecting . because only recently i been told to do it this way. please help

pretty important if you want to live!!! Pull it so you'll know that you haven't tapped into a vein..inject into muscle good...inject into vein bad...you don't want 3cc of oil running into your heart

ok thanks for help i ve been doing this wrong for quite a while . how far would i need to pull back the plunger? would it create an air bubble if i pulled it back to far?

It's called aspirating and if done in a muscle you should see small air bubbles in the syringe.

For more info on injecting sites and procedures go check out www.elitefitness.com/members/2thick.

Very important more important on site injections in arms
because of increased vascularity. You don't want to burst a vein, or inject an artery which may carry the oil to your heart.

If you are injecting into the glute there is no need to aspirate..

even in your glute aspirate anyway..better safe than sorry...unless you have a big fat ass

no, not true

when my doc was shooting me with Deca, he ALWAYS aspirated. And after a few months when i was doing it myself and i asked him why to aspirate when hitting the butt, he looked at me as if i was a complete idiot. And i only asked it to put a reply here on the board. And now almost a year later, he stills thinks that it was me not aspirating. So do yourself a favor and always aspirate.
