Need some advise on my own injections??

[repoj]

Ok guys, I know this may sound a little dumb but I have never done my own injections. I'm a little nervouse about doing this for the first time cause I don't want to hit a veighn or just put the needle all the way in and start injecting into fat instead of muscle. I've been to getpins website and they suggest you section off your glute into 4 sections, and inject into the upper-outer section of the glute, asperate to see if you hit a veighn or not, and if not, inject slowly and pull out than hold a cotton swab there for a while.

Does this sound right? I asked some of you guys a while back the same question and some of you said to bassically find where I want to inject, point straight and push in fairly quick and inject slowly.

Sound right? Please give me your input guys, this is what I'm going by for my first cycle. Thanks guys.

That info is correct. If you follow this advice http://www.spotinjections.com/index3.htm, you will do it correctly.

I'll add: Use a 20g, 1-1/2" pin to draw the oil from the vial. Switch to a 23 or 25g pin for injecting.

If your are injecting by yourself for the first time, I wouldn't use the glutes. You're going to be nervous, and it's awkward enough the first time. The glutes take some practice. Hell, I know of some vets that still haven't tried glutes. I recommend the delt for the first time.

Practice on a orange... seriously. It also takes some practice to hold the syringe, and aspirate with the same hand. Draw some cooking oil into a syringe, and then with one hand pierce the orange, pull back on the plunger until you see air bubbles, then push the plunger down and inject the oil into the orange. If you use a 23 or 25g pin, you'll probably be surprised at how much resistance there is when pushing down on the plunger. This way, you'll know what to expect before your actual injection. Think of it as a 'dry run'. BTW, make sure to use an orange, not an apple or potato, etc.

Good luck!

I go pretty close to the center, you find your own sweet spots over time. If you've been shot so many times before there is no reason to be nervous at all. Even if you shot into fat and not muscle its not that big a deal unless you did it that way every time.

Get 1.5" for the ass and 1" for other spots, I've used 1" for the ass and the shots dont go deep enough even at 13% bodyfat for me, I get lumps. If I use 5/8" for delts even pushing the plunger deep, I get some leakage, so I'm going back to deep shots. I also have some scar tissue in both delts I believe from both 5/8" pins and of course frequent EOD and ED shots from my last two cycles.

I re-read the post. I didn't realize repoj had done injections, just he didn't administer them himself. D'oh!

Yeah, I agree Mudge. I've tried 1" in the glutes, and 5/8" in the delts and tri's, but I've found 1-1/2" works best in the glutes, and 1" everywhere else.

I tried it first in my delts and it was scary at first but after the first time it was nothing. Just try to keep your hand steady so you don't move the needle around too much and cause more pain for yourself later. After your done I would recommend massaging the area for a bit and maybe a heating pad at night to help cut down on the soreness the next day.

well guys I looked at the needles that I have and they are unfortunately 1"ers. Mudge what do you think I should do, get the 1.5"ers to do in the ass or just utilize the 1"ers that I have and just go for the delts and rotate delts throught the 12 week cycle? I'm using sustenon250 by the way guys.

 

[repoj]

by the way guys, I have some Proviron for during the cycle at 25mg's a pill. Should I take 25mg's a day or 50 a day, or 25 everyother day? Any suggestions?
