Thread: first pin, easy as cakeee

Lol bro my first pin many years ago was in my glute, the pin was so sharp as soon as it touched the skin it went right in I swear I didn't even know it went in I looked and it was all the way down as you said lol

So I went with quad just out of ease, 25g might as well have been an angel's kiss, really felt like nothing. I was kinda iffy about going deep into the muscle, but after pushing it through the skin it easily glided down to the end of the pin, no pain whatsoever. Aspirated, no blood, 25 ga. took a little bit of time to push through but no big deal. Pulled out, no blood, dabbed with alcohol swab and got the tiniest red drop. I feel like I might have a bit of cramping in the muscle but no big deal as of yet. Soo thanks to everyone here who has been of so much help. Will rep everyone in this thread til I'm out

When I was doing my first pin I shaked so much the wife had to give me the shot. I still get a little coldsweat when I pin, but Ive never manage to pin myself in the glut, its to wierd angel for me. I do quads and actually also tried calves...and the wife pin me in the ass...well sometime I pin her..but with a much larger pin..and not in the ass

That's the part that guys new to pinning don't usually understand. Once you break the skin there is no pain the deeper you go. It just seems like the farther in it goes the more it will hurt. Unless you knick a vein or a nerve there is no pain. Well until the next day but I wouldn't really consider muscle soreness as pain. Good luck you are gonna love yourself a bunch more in a few weeks when you are growing at a crazy rate.

You're still a bitch - lol, just kidding my friend. Welcome to the world of pinners. Glad you broke your cherry. Now, you can start to get excited and tickled pink when it's time to pin, just like I do.

Yeah I knew the skin is supposedly the worst part, so I kind of did the "dart" technique and I barely even felt it, it was over so quick I just kept pushing, strange feeling seeing something go that deep into your leg and not even feeling it lol. Had to use two hands to hold it steady though as I was definitely shaking a bit lol

I wish I had someone to pin my glute, I have bad shoulders and holding that angle and trying to aspirate with one hand, plus waiting an eternity for it to push through a 25ga seems less than worth it. Sounds like you found a keeper though :P

Yeah I heard that from a bunch of people, but I thought it was exaggerated. You really don't feel the muscle at all, it almost felt like sticking it in someone else's leg lol. I think I might've closed my eyes for a second when it went through the skin, but then I just stared in disbelief as the pin went in further and further haha. I do feel a tiny bit of cramping already so we'll see what tomorrows like, but even if its twice as bad as it is now it'll still be well worth it!

Congrats bud! It's only going to get better from here on out.

lol I do feel like a bitch, when it got here I was like "oh noes I'm scairt" but obviously I'm not gonna have this beautiful oil sitting here and let it go to waste. So I grabbed the pin with both hands and screamed "This is SPARTAAA", and jammed it into my leg, never seen this tech listed on any sites but it worked for me

Enjoy the benifits!!

thx man that's the plan, started eating more already lol its time to blow up

appreciated, you just started yours as well right? How's it going so far?

Quad injections are the least painful for me, but i have more soreness the next day for some reason.

Awesome man, yeah I was amazed (and still am) at how easily the pin goes in with no pain whatsoever after breaking the skin. I am running my first cycle and have pinned 16 times now and it just keeps becoming more routine and easy to do. And like BigBird said, I look forward to doing it.

Someone mentioned getting a cold sweat when they do it. I start to sweat a little on my forehead when I pin but it's not big deal.

Good luck!

I think I'll be sticking to quads for now, if the rest are as easy as this one I don't see why I'd bother pinning glutes, and the rest sound a bit too veiny for my taste lol. I feel a bit of cramping already but it seems like its already getting better, we'll see when I wake up tomorrow though

good to hear man, you just doing enanthate? How's it working for you so far? And yeah I definitely was sweating a bit when I was prepping, and I was about to hesitate right before sticking my quad, but I turned my mind off for a sec and it was over. I can definitely see getting used to it though, especially after seeing some results.

Don't just stick to quads. Rotate it up bro. Scar tissue blows. Also Hit them glutes and delts at least

yeahhh probably a good idea, glutes will be done for sure, how are delts when it comes to running into veins/nerves etc.? What else would you reccomend (could one pin lats/traps? never really hear about it but it seems there's plenty of muscle there to make it easy) what about triceps?

also what happens when scar tissue builds up? Just harder to pin or does it affect the muscle's strength/recovery?

The best scar tissue is the kind doesn't exist. Don't chance it. I rotate between glutes and delts and have zero issues. Don't aspirate either - never have never will. My own personal philosophy. Use a 1" on delts or betteer yet a 5/8" if you have it. The 1" doesn't even have to go in all the way; more than half maybe 2/3 - 3/4? Of course, you can't have whale blubber as skin other wise your BF is too high to begin with.

dear OP, please report back tomorrow and let us know how your "pain free" shot worked out for ya lol

Trust me, its not the needle that hurts. Its the solvents as well as the oil spreading out the fascia. You'll be feeling that shit tomorrow, i assure you.

yeah, I look forward to my pins now.

It's not so much the shot that hurts it's the days after people complain of...post tomorrow how u feel! Lol

Ok I will be rotating up as much as possible, gonna do left quad next then each glute and then maybe delts

Thanks for the reassurance man, it already feels less than pleasant so I imagine you're right

will do, did you say "DAYS"? I was expecting tomorrow and maybe a bit the next day, but I should be fine by next pin right

either way its worth it to me, looking on the bright side I could be shooting prop lol

^This. I was nervous too, nothing to it but to do it!

Let us know how your cycle goes.

thanks man, I will update later when I start noticing something


not gonna lie, there was a brief moment where I was like "I'm not sure I can do this", but by the time I had it prepped I was more excited than anything lol

we'll see how I feel in the morning though, quad already feels kinda like I got punched a week ago, honestly feels better than this morning so hopefully tomorrow won't be bad. Decided it was cool to squat anyway and it didn't give me any problems.

quad injections are painless to inject. BUT the soreness the next day is a bitch. Probably the worst

ugh now you guys tell me :P

oh well if I didn't like pain I wouldn't be here

didnt know you were starting your cycle this soon brah good luck and keep us updated! i got my 2nd package in and could start it right now if i wanted but waiting on 6 GP anavar to get here.

Yeah my first pack never came but it was shipped nearly 5 days earlier and still shows it as never leaving the country of origin, so I decided to forego the dbol (pins were coming too but I already got some smaller ones from gpz)

I'll keep you updated for sure, maybe I'll post progress pics on the misc for lulz, they're not quite as cool with bicyclers as they are here though

EK came through pretty quick for me, definitely reccomended

The delts are by 1000x my fav spot. I wish I had more of them to inject into lol....

My dayjob is super physical, and requres aLOT of walking/running around to and from my work truck to the jobsite, and I work alone, so a swollen glute/quad hurts like a bitch for days.

Doesn't make sense, out of the blue the entire muscle will swell to no end for about 4 days and be hellish sore for days 3-4. It was mainly the Sustanon that did this to me.

Long story short, the delts never hurt, and even the day or 2 after is nothing more than a slight soreness like a good workout.

When the legs or glute want to play sore games they balloon up and take it to the next level meaking it tough to sit,stand, bend-over, walk... etc

Good stuff!

My first glute shot was my last. I can't get a decent angle to see WTF I'm doing. I now stick with quads for the 2.5-3 cc shots and hit the Delts and calves, with a slin pin, for the small amounts of NPP I do. Quads are my favorite.

Remember my first pin of Sust, rediject 18 gauge thick as a paper clip. Just looking at that pin made me think twice.
Now older and wiser using 23 and 25 gauge for Test.
