Quad Injection Question

[wayneboard1]

OK, so my source got me the wrong size pins and now I have 23 gauge 1.5" sticks for what I hoped would be quad injections (2 injects per week each quad once a week). While I'm not as big as say needsize/radar, etc I am not skinny either. SO, is it acceptable to use that size needle for my test/eq sticks in my quad? Other than maybe some additional pain, what are the reasons why I would not want to use this size in this case? I figure with this size I can almost assure I will get deep enough and not have any abcess issues, but want to make sure that I won't do anything unsafe with the size difference. Thanks for any help you guys can provide.

If you wanted to use 1" just cut the plastic cover so only 1" of the pin is exposed. You'll be fine either way.

I was worried about the bone too, on my first. But don't be bro you won't get anywhere near it. Trust me once you do it, is's not as big a deal as you think. Good Luck

So when taling about injection spots such as the quads and glutes (and any other large mass area I forgot to mention) is the difference between the 1.5" and 1" just a matter of preference and not anything else? As long as they are safe to do, thats my major concern. I can deal with any discomfort a stick will bring, (except adcess etc) so thats why I asked. Does the extra length on a 1.5" help reduce your chances for adcess? Thanks for your replies guys, any others are appreciated.

Dont stress about it and be a pussy...simply push it in 1" and leave the rest sticking out.

My personal preference is 25g 1" for everything period.

And you are right bro...outer uper area. No concerns realx, enjoy your juice

I use the exact same size bro in my quads. I just don't go in as far as I would in the glute. You'll be fine.

I've been using 1.5's as well. However, each time I inject I try to only sink 1" of the pin into my quad (I've seen a number of times on this board that going deeper in the quads is not good but, I'm not sure why???). Not the easiest thing to do (especially if the "excitement" makes you a little shaky) but the pins were free. It's been working out OK so far.

Yeah you have a good point. My post was answered but I do wonder "why not" on a lot of things. I hesitate to ask because I don't want to clutter the board with "How come?" posts. So anyone else that reads this after replying to my originol post, why is it not good to go deeper? Is it just a pain issue with regardot the needle or does it create other issues?
