I just started my first cycle this week. I have taken 2 HCG and one AAS shot so far. The HCG doesn't hurt at all but the AAS hurts like a mother. I am using a 25g 1 1/2 in pin and am going in the upper outer quadrant of the glut. It didn't hurt the first day but its been 2 days since and its really tender and tight. Is this normal and does anyone have any suggestions for reducing this?

What compound are you injecting?

depends alot on the compound, ba/bb content etc.
Test E has always been real smooth for me though, haven't tried prop yet

Just kidding. Virgin muscles can hurt. But other than that, I've noticed compounds with short esters or high benzo hurt the most. But also has a lot to do with injection technique. Post more info and you should get some good advice.

Also this ^
the first few times the soreness bothers you because you feel like it's actually doing damage to your muscle, you don't want to bend it because you can feel the pressure in there etc. After a few pins you realize the soreness doesn't mean shit, just ignore it

Ah wtf is that? Lol but yea bro virgen muscles will hurt. You have to understand, you are, by force, introducing not only a thick oil but also hormones and solvents into a muscle. The pain will be less as your muscles get use to it. Oh and once again, wtf is cypiobolic? Lol
I've injected that brand before with no pain to speak of. Just massage it and take a hot shower. You should be fine unless you develop a fever.
prop cripples me, have never used cyp. to help alleviate my pain i pop 600mg of iboprufen and heat pack on your ass. try warming your gear prior to injection also - in a heat pack. dont stick it in the oven lol

Gotcha, I've never used it. I assumed it was cyp but wasn't sure who made it

Bro, I just started Some TNE/Dbol, thought it would hurt like mad.
It is AWESOME!!!! Pain right away, then goes away...
I know every time I have pain it usually means I am going to get swole, or need a glass of man the fuck up for that day.
haha on a serious note... I agree, you are probably pushing too deep, pull back a bit bro.
If you are a lighter guy then that explains a lot.
I have some fair sized shoulders and if I pin high (by "I" I mean my buddy who enjoys cracking jokes about sticking me), I can feel it seeming to press against the bone separating the muscle, (weird feeling).
Try quads, or delts at a shallower depth.
I have heard good things about your brand of gear, so I doubt it is that.

^^i agree not the gear but technique my even virgin muscle wiith this didnt hurt at all in glute
muscles you havent hit before can leave them sore the first few time but after that soreness goes away. Just recently started trying bicep injections and the first couple times i was sore for a few days but after that it went away.

What compound are you pushing into your bi's?
That isn't too bad. I take it you're putting 1ml in, or .5?
sounds like PIP to me...no pain going in then some mild swelling and muscle pain for about two days after. I am going through the same thing right now.
I read that you'll experience every time you inject into a new area and whenever you inject a new compound (different melting points, crystallization, etc.). I'd post the link but I forget where it was.
Hope that's helpful; sounds like we are going through the same thing almost at the same time but as long as there's no infection symptoms (fever, etc.) shouldn't worry about it.

Some gears don't have PIP bro. No matter how virgin the muscle.
especially fake gears don't have PIP from what I read. I could be wrong as I am new but apparently the PIP is a result of the oil being absorbed faster than the aas which is left behind and absorbed more slowly. Is my understanding correct here?

You are correct partially.
See, certain compounds like test e are liquid at body temp, same with EQ. SO therefore, you don't really have crystallization. I am on some TNE that doesn't even have PIP.
None of the gears I am on have PIP: Test E, TNE/Dbol, EQ, HCG.
A great brewer, will have a HRT/TRT solution with minimal/no PIP.
To add to this... Oil is only part of a solution, there are other things involved like the solvent... the solvent has to do more with PIP. It helps keep the solution from crystallizing.
that gear is ok bro im useing it now with some omnadren suss 250..you carnt go in to far as you got stick all the pin in ( all of it to the end )
im doin 3ml in the ass with no problems and thats no Homo
...what i can say is the AP cyp and the test e they do are both good as ive used both now.
Have Fun
2ml of test E in one shot in my bicep (500 mg).
