spot injected quad hurt like a bitch,help

[Bigredcanecorso]

Hey bro's I just started my 10 week cycle today, I have always injected in my glute, thought I would try my quads then biceps and glutes, I tried a 23gauge x 1inch and couldn't do it, it felt like a pencil was going in, so I just did my glutes, any advice? Should I use a 25 gauge? please help....thanks

I use 23's and 25's on my quads. I do find it is a little harder going in, and it is gonna hurt a little more than the glute because there are more nerves in the quad I believe. But its not that bad, and its so much easier to see what you are doing and hold it steady.

I use a 23 guage one inch in my quads and had no problems and felt nothing. The only problem with quads is the tendancy for the leg muscle to tighten up making the shot painful. Usually the tension is very hard to notice, but this is usually the problem.

I have hit my quads a million times, yesterday I hit them with a 25 gauge 1 1/2 and it was pretty painful. I don't know what the deal was, i guess I was hitting some nerves.

Quads are like butter.

I only hit my quads. I use 22g 1.5 inches and normally dont feel a thing as long as I change the pin after I draw. Don't forget to aspirate though I seem to hit veins about 1 out of 8 times.

quads are my lest fav. I rather shot bi's on fucking arm day.
calves, hips, glutes are my fav. I hate quads but deal with it to mix up locations.

You may have hit too low (towards the back) on the quad. I did that (or started too) and it was ridiculous pain.

I really think, like most on here, that after doing a certain area awhile the pain lessons with each passing shot. I have used an 18 guage in my quad before, and that didnt hurt too bad. I wonder if after all those jabs perhaps the nerves in that area of the skin get denervated. I can pass a 22 guage and not even feel it, but it was not like that at first. Just keep it up and it should get better.

quads are great never shoot anywhere else love it

 

[LVTitan]

i only shoot quads now, but i must admit my first few quad shots crippled me.
and the first time i did primo in my quads it hurt super bad too...
it will get better.
shoot the lateral side of the quads (where your hands rest when standing up), i've never had pain there, only hurts when i shoot the front of my quads.

some quad shots suck ass and others are fine, its an unpredictable muscle.

I hit my glute with 2.5cc's of short estered gear and I am limping around today ugh.

i only roll with the glutes. my quads are too veiny and lean for pinz. every timie i hit em it kills. the skin is too tough to get the needle in

damn, I bet when you aspirated you got a core sample of your leg too ?

 

[Bigredcanecorso]

Thanks a lot bro's, I just ordered some 25's x 1 inch, I am shooting 4 times a week so it better work I don't think my glutes can handle all that juice,

Yeah, that was early on when I first started out and I allowed myself to run out of smaller guage needles. All I had around were 18 guages. I would never choose to use that if I had a choice! I was surprised though at how there was not alot of pain. I could hear that needle pop through the fascia on my thigh. POP!
