pinning tiger balm
Hey yall. I recently started getting more pain than usual pinning the quads so i added ventro glutes into pinning schedule. Holy crap did that make a difference.
pinning schedule looks like this now:
week 1 day 1 left glute day 2 right glute
week 2 day 1 right shoulder day 2 right quad
week 3 day 1 left quad day 2 right ventro glute
week 4 day 1 left ventro glute day 2 start pinning cycle over again
(do not pin left shoulder lol)
I also began to slow down pins taking 10-15 second a pause every .5 ml or so
DO NOT USE THIS TIGER BALM METHOD JUST DO AS I SAID ANOVE AND ROTATE INJECTION SITES MORE OFTEN USING TIGER BALM BEFORE PIN WILL JUST INCREASE RISK OF INFECTION

why in the world would you use this stuff before you pin ?.. There is stuff like Dr Numb or what ever that
you can use.(or at least might work better.)..just my 2 pennies..
That is a horrible plan as Rusty said below about infection! Tiger balm and I know because I use the very best in Thailand seeps through the outer epidermis instantly. So all the wiping in the world does not give you a clean site for injection. You may have gotten away with this and good for you that you did. But I wouldn't keep tempting fate brother.
does tiger balm work just like icyhot?
Yes but a stronger version, with some slight modifications. The original version that you get in Asia that is not regulated by the FDA will make you feel like you are on FIRE and then dipped in a ice bath.
mr127superdeedamn no i would rather go with a lil pin pain than an infection any day of the week i just figured it couldn't do no harm. but now that i think about it that goo that ive put my fingers in a hundred times is probably a sest pool of bacteria i just i figured the aclhohol swab would get it off ill make a note of this in forum i hope i didnt cause anyone harm
That is why these forums are here if anything you probably helped someone in the future. When I was young and in Thailand training I put the original unregulated tiger balm on the inside of my legs before training because they were super wrecked. Well I didn't no that the sweat would carry the menthol vapors up to my let me tell you, I never made that mistake twice. Live and learn lol. Just glad you didn't get an infection! That is what matters here.
mr127superdeeme too an infection is really my only fear in this game. i just hope who ever saw that youtube video i saw comes accross this post
RustyhookerMan the eff up. If the chems from tiger balm get in your hole you're going to get nasty infection. Most them video doychbags make roid heads look like pussy retards.
mr127superdeeDamn fixed your right idk what i was thinking that tiger balm glass ive put my finger in a hundred times is prob a sest pool for bacteria. right when you think you know it all you realize your not that smart lol! THANKS RUSTY FOR SAVING MY ASS LITERALLY LOL.
RustyhookerI'd rather see pix of hard 18in arms than see an eroids buddy getting ill. After area is swabbed with alcohol point your pin to the sky. Push plunger just enough to get a lil bead oil onto pin. It acts as a lubricant and pin will slide right in with no pop.
mr127superdeedamn straight lol ill work my ass off for those arm pics btw another 3 months hopefully. thanks again one of my worst fears are actually getting an injection i hope whoever saw the youtube vid i saw will read some of the input in here
how do you pin the ventro glute? I feel like I'd hit the head of my femur or iliac crest if I stick a needle in there
mr127superdeefirst of all are you "the God ov roids"
second of all
it takes balls the first time no lie lol!
it looks feels and seems like there is no deep muscle there but there is.
the hard part is that it is only about the size of a half dollar coin a much smaller safe zone than any other spot injection i know of.
use a 1" 25g pin if you can thats what i use for the spot and it took 3mls smooth the first time it will be realluy sore like any other virgin muscle but after a couple of times it will be the easiest pin spot youll ever use
Cock your hip to one side. You'll notice a small bulbils rise slightly larger than a golf ball.
I was nervous the first time I pinned there so I used a 1" pin. It was painless. Second time I used an 1.5" pin and sure enough, it too was painless.
I've pined 2.5 ml using a 1.5" pin and had no problem. Apparently the muscle is bigger than it looks on the surface.
That is my favorite place to pin. That is where most medical professionals will pin you when they do IM (besides a flu shot). Probably the safest place to pin because of few veins and nerves.
