Pec Injection Questions...

[bolognese]

hey guys...i was thinking about hitting both pecs on monday instead of my lats

i usually pin my lats with a 23G 1 inch needle.

i was wondering what size needle i should use and how long it should be??

a friend of mine was able to get me a 27G 5/8 inch needle...is the gauge to small??

i will be shooting test cyp...i am also wondering...could i shoot a half CC into each pec or should i go with .25 CC in each pec??

Any info would be great...THaNks

it depends on the size of your pecs, to be honest. if you have large pecs, you can use a 1 inch by 23....
you can use a 25g 5/8 also.

half cc would probably be a good bet. IMHO pinning .25 's a cc presents problems because its such a small amount and not all the juice gets absorbed sometimes (spill out, some remaining in the pin/plunger, etc)

i use the 1.5'' and shoot up to 3cc at a time with a 25g. your not going to hit your lungs or heart with any kegnth needle unless you took a full swing and jabbed it in as hard as you could to get through your chest wall if that is what you are worried about. the amount you inject and legnth of the pin depends on the size of your pec.

lol psycho huh. i dont go all the way in by the way. i should have mentioned that i guess. i leave about 1/4'' exposed in case the pin sepirates.

because you need more injection sites than that if you pin alot. and it doesn't make sense to pin your glutes for a half cc or so. have to do that stupid reach around when you can just hit your triceps instead

there's also those who believe that injection stretches the fascia which will allow for growth eventually (not the same as localized site growth)

i have tried all the sites mentioned above with the addition of calves.

i'll pass on calf injections! i hobbled around like an arthritic geezer the next day after calf sticks. no problems with the other site areas mentioned in this thread.

can't do quads. last time had me limping for an entire week. I like pecs because I can use 2 hands and its realy painless. I use a 23g 1"long

everybody's different! quad sticks worked well for me. i would inject and go hit the lower body hard in the weight room. the next day i was so sore from the day before's lifting i didn't even notice any inject soreness.
