Hi. I started my cycle Monday with my first ever injection. Did it in the deltoid with a 25g 1" needle. Didn’t feel bad but just wondering If I should push the needle all the way in or how much should be left out? I’m quite afraid of damaging a nerve.
I use 1” needles and I push it all the way in. You might hit a nerve and cause a “twitch” but I doubt you will damage anything.
Okay. If I then hit a nerve, should I then pull the pin out and switch to a new and re-inject?
Personally, I do not do that. It’s just a twitch that goes away. I get them almost every time I inject quads. You come to expect it
Hmm okay thanks. Should go fine i hope, wish me luck for tomorrow
Get some insulin needles for you delts. Over the long run its much better try and minimize the accumulation of scar tissue which will happen regardless to the guage needle you use and will also be more pronounce with non pharma grade gear. Just an FYI no one ever mentions that.
I use #29x1/2" insulin pins for the delts. Works fine up to .5Ml , I havent tried more than that.

yup slins are fine delts and quads if your lean enough… I get the twitch in the delts too… just man up and push that shit in…worst u get is a bruise
Well i have shot two times now both times with 25g 1". Can’t I just push that a little over half in?
yes… just saying you just gotta get it in the muscle so you can save $$$ by just pinning in low fat areas with slins
Yea thanks. Dont know If i need to create a new thread but here goes.
I don’t have any gyno symptoms yet, should I still start AI or should I just wait and start them if I get symptoms? Got arimidex
What’s your weekly dose?
500mg test E. Also got clomid and nolvadex for my pct
If you look at @physioLojik’s cycle log, he uses nolvadex daily.
Don’t worry about a muscle “twitching” when injection. You are probably just hitting a trigger point. Unlikely to do any damage, if the pain was to radiate down your arm or leg and be all “sparkly” then you might have a problem. But this is why you stick to the “safe injecting zones”.
