Injecting through a vein

[iron asylum]

I plan on doing trap shots but when I am semi lean I notice I have a big vein that runs right over the middle of each one. What would happen if I end up injecting my shot through the vein. It would just pass through I guess? Just wondering how dangerous this is in case it happens. Anything to worry about?

Very dangerous.

I shoot stuff in my traps and every once in a while i go through a vein. The only thing that happens is that i get a huge bruise the size of a quarter that takes a week or 2 to go away.

Its safe you probably go through veins all the time shooting other muscle groups.

I've done it in other area's and you get a hell of a rush when the gear goes into the blood stream quick like that. A racing heart rate, cough, breathing restriction but only lasted about ten minutes of real discomfort but breathing restricted for about a day. If you have breathing issues I could imagine that it could really cause you a problem.
I wouldn't want to do it to often.

Thats it ^^^^^^^ right there. I have done it in my delts a couple times. I didnt have breathing discomfort for the rest of the day thogh. Maybe an hour or two. It wasnt "discomfort so much, just a heavy lung feeling.
You may also get some squirting blood for a second until it clots. I did it once and it poured out for a sec( i mean poured!). Pressed the spot for a min and it stopped. I did it a second time and it shot a stream of blood out of my arm like 2 ft!!! I fucking shit myself. These were smaller veins. I definatley would avoid those larger veins.

I just wish the fucking thing wasnt there. I'm spot injecting my traps and hoping to get some fascia stretching but do NOT want the stuff going into any vein.

yeah bro, if your still anywhere near as lean as you were around contest time you gotta have a hard time not hitting a vein anwhere.

There's a difference between piercing the vein on the way in (and injecting well below it), and injecting INTO a vein. I hit blood vessles all the time going in.

Pretty much any time you get blood on pullout you passed through a vein. Nothing big about that. I get little runners every couple of injects. That said I wouldn't want to inject into a vein. Try to aspirate if you can.

As for fascia stretching your traps if that's what you are trying to do I would say don't even bother and start looking into jump shrugs/dynamic shrugs. Heavy ass weight and explosive motion is about 10x more demanding of the traps than some 100lbs db's done slow.
