Needle length

[lilj888]

since im a worry wart, im worried if my 1inch needle isnt long enough for shootin in my glute. i shoot 1ml once a week of test e, and its not that painful very easily tolerated.

my ass is prob around 15% bf but lets pretend its 20%, would the 1 inch be good enough?

I never saw any reason to go bigger than 1",

I use a 1.5 and it goes ALL the way into my quad. I use the same for my glute, and I'm between 12% and 14% so i think maybe a 1.5 would be better, but if you flex your glute you should be able to see the muscle beneath the fat, and you can probably judge how deep it is.

Unless your a lard ass you can use a 1" needle for every thing.

For GH and HCG -- slin pin.

I hit my glute with a 1" no problem but usually use 1.5"

the problem is you may hot the muscle but not get deep enough--if bf is 20%, you need 1.5. I use 1.5 for everything and just adjust to where I am pinning.....and you never want to have the pin all the way in with no part of the needle showing-----some of the new ones (BG thin-walled ones for e.g.) can break---and imagine the drive to the er with w 1" needle buried in your ass----yeeeeowwww

I never ever use more than 1 and 1/4 (1.25 inches) unless shooting slin or gh then its 8mm 30g

I need to get you to talk to my girlfriend!

Yeah, I use 1.5" needles and there is usually at least 1/4" sticking out. If you go deep with 1" you should be fine.

LOL - you are hangin with the wrong women

1 in is fine just bend fwd slightly when injecting so the skin / fat is tight.

 

[advanced-stealth]

1" should be fine, if you want to make sure its long enough then just use 1.5'

AAS injections are supposed to be deep IM.

Too bad they don't make 2" pins, to get through all that flubber!

J/K bro. I owe you coffee..........................and a donut.

use a 1.5" for your ass. what does it matter to you? get it deep in the muscle. 1" on glute 20% bf your barely hittin' the muscle. its not going to feel any different. I am 11% and stick the 1.5" all the way in and push the plastic up against my skin fairly hard.

1.5 in the glute, 1" in quads, delts, chest. if you are lean enough you could even use slin pins in smaller muscles if you dnt mind pushing for awhile
