can anyone describe where, i mean i know on the side of your quad, but if you were laying flat, would it be on the upper middle or lower portion of the side? and up more towards your head or towards your knee?
Where exactly for a quad inject?

dude I just did it myself for the first time in my quad on Friday and if you can't figure it out even with the spotinjections website. You shouldn't be injecting at all. Just jam it in and do it.

with that kind of advice you should be giving any at all.Got2GetRipped said:
Hey bro you'd wanna do it at the half way mark from the knee and slightly below the hip. Looks like you could easily use a 1 inch pin and get into the muscle nicely. Lubricate the pin a little (drop of oil going down it), stretch the injection site, and it'll go in smoothly. Oh and most importantly, RELAX.
A lot of people (experienced people) do quad injections wrong. You shoot into your quad at an angle towards your knee cap. This results in less tissue resistance. Thats also why a 1.5 inch pin is fine, cause of the slight angle.
You should be injecting into the upper part of the vastus lateralis muscle (lateral midthigh area). Jab the needle in so that its inserted one inch toward the anterior aspect of the thigh. There are no important nerves or vessels in close proximity.
Look at this link. http://www.netsvic.org.au/nets/handbook/index.cfm?doc_id=632
Its for an infant, but the principal remains the same. You also have much more muscle that an infant (hopefully), so it goes deeper on the angle. I just recently starting shooting quads and they are great. If you are doing them properly ... they will be completely painless.

I do quads with a 25x1 pin. Once in a while I hit a nerve, which is easily solved by stopping and slightly changing the angle as I push the needle in. I also find that if I hit to far towards the side of your leg, it hurts. Also be sure to work the muscle a bit after. It seens to help with pain the next day. Quads are one of the easiest spots. Good luck bro....

When you sit in your chair, you will see the outer edge of your thigh, the big muscle that pops out. Thats the muscle you want to inject into, about 45 degrees from the outside. You measure the middle of your thigh, measure is done from your hip to your knee, in the very middle your muscle is on its thickest and you inject from the side. Remember to aspirate. If no blood, shoot it in, but go very slowly, you have all the time in the world, so spend 30 seconds if possible for every CC you inject. when done, pull the needle half way out, let it rest for 2 seconds, then pull it all the way out. This creates an airlock wich will prevent you from bleeding if you pass a vein on the way in.
After removing the needle, som people find it good to massage the area with their palm, just rubbing back and forth. Personally i never do this, as this creates preasure on the injection spot and the oil that is in there is being squeezed around the tissue, causing more damage and theoreticly can be forced into a vein that is already harmed, not very likely, but in theory everything is possible.
Either is fine tho.

Thats good stuff Mavy, ive never tried it on an angle, I'll have to give that a whirl. How far up from your knee cap do you usually go, Im usually about the halfway mark.
