1 inch or 1.5 inch in quad?

[plifter198]

I was thinking of doing some quad injections....ive been doing my shoulders and glutes and was thinking of mixing it up...especially itd be easier to see since i have to do some injections without a mirror. i have 1 inch and 1.5 inch needles which should i use? i use the 1.5 for my glutes and 1 for shoulders

 

[theCaptn']

use 1.5" for both. Unless you have small, girl-like shoulders, use 1"

 

[mich29]

use 1.5" for both. Unless you have small, girl-like shoulders, use 1"

solid advice here.

 

[keith1569]

I haven't had any issue doing 1in on shoulders or quads. Glutes I use 1.5in.

 

[trapzilla]

Unless your lacking developmentally, 1.5's should see you through quads and glutes imho. Although never pinned delts so couldn't comment on that

 

[keith1569]

I'm not saying 1.5in is bad. Just saying both have worked for me. I prefer 23g for sites

I agree. 23 gauge 1" is my weapon of choice. If your BF% is low enough, 1" is plenty long for any injection site.

1" 24g works great for me on delts and quads

 

[GH Consigliere]

So what good for buttdocks ? 1 or 1 1/2 no homo

I use 1" for all injection sites as well.

Now for a few years I've done maximum 2ccs in the quads and delts and 3ccs in the glutes.

Can you inject more than 2ccs, like 3ccs in the quad and delt area? I've done some research in the past but I would want to know your input on this also..

 

[keith1569]

Chino I prefer 1in for most areas and 5/8 for pec

 

[keith1569]

Max I have done in deltas is 2cc
Quads and glutes 3cc
Pecs 1.5cc
I don't think u should have problems with 3cc in quads. If you want go up in half ml increments and see how it feels for ya

1.5" in quads I have no injection site pain days afterward. Using 1" I get pain after a day or so. So I use 1.5"

 

[GH Consigliere]

5/8 pecs I never done my luck I would screw something up

 

[TGB1987]

I use a 25G 1in. for glutes, shoulders, outer quads. I sometimes use a 29G 1/2in for small muscles like tricep, bicep, calves, delts, and pecs.

 

[GH Consigliere]

I been useing a 23g 1" for all areas the only spot I had issues is my butt but only one time it hurts and I know I lost gear sould I go with a 1 1/2?

 

[TGB1987]

a 1 1/2 is probably preferable for the glute chino. It is not needed for everyone though. I am ok with 1 in. and never have had any issues.

 

[GH Consigliere]

It only happen once but will give it a shot

Cool. I'll go with 2 n a half ccs quad injection first and see how I feel.

It should Not be necessary to use a 1-1/2" on quads unless you either have whale blubber surrounding the muscle tissue or you just flat out prefer to go 1-1/2" deep into quad muscle. However, 1" is plenty fine for quad as well as delt. In addition, 1" is actually ok for glutes though I've been stuck in the habit of 1-1/2" for glutes.

 

[G3]

While we are on the subject guys, what happens if the shot is too shallow?

 

[keith1569]

Shallow shots for me get a little red and kinda swollen. It subsides within a 3 to 5 days. That also seems to happen with me if i push the oil in to fast.

Its just a personal thing but the deeper i go into my quads the less pip i get and hence i always feel deeper is better in quads, not so much glutes though

Crazy tri/bi pinnin SOB's...

I'm thinking about pinnin that muscle in my mandible. I figure it will help whilst cutting as I won't want to eat as much... Thoughts?

LOL, (searching for a response)...

Duly noted and since I don't pin quads I can't really offer firsthand advice on quad pinning. Glutes/Delts my are my flavor. "To each his own"...

 

[bulldogz]

quad shots = 25g, 1in for me...but you can use the 1.5in for quads as well...personal preference...

 

[Junkboxer]

heres my protocol:

Quads: 25G x 1 inch
Glutes: 25G x 1.5 inch
Chest: 25G x 5/8 inch
*these are the only places ive injected. im a very lean guy btw if that helps at all.
