1 inch needle vs 1.5 inch needle?

ad

hi guys pinned my first shot of test C earlier today ;)...

now paranoid as fuck thou...

used a 25g 1inch pin, n getting concerned it didn't go in the muscle correctly? as too short?
I pinned the the upper side part of the glute? is this ok?

ive a bit of a dead arse were the pin went in so should be ok right?

cheers for the patients guys lol

You can tell if is sub q because you won't be able to sit still for long, even longer if you hit a small vessel like my friend did (3" purple bruise for a week). Also agree on 1.5" for that area.

Arse shots should be done with a 1.5" needle, the deeper the better in that area...

I do 1.5in for all areas other then bi's. even at a higher bf% you should be okay with a 1in. If you dont hit muscle and it goes into sub-q you will typically get lumping under the skin, so you should know. regardless, 1.5 in when in doubt imo

Good choice. I do most of my pinning in my ventral glutes. I find that it's much easier to reach there and I've never nicked a vein or had any pip there.

Whats ur bf %? Whens mines high (above 10) I use a 1.5 for glutes, when its below ten I can get away with a 1 inch, but still prefer 1.5 just to get that depth

I use 25g 1" in my thighs. Same goes for my delts. There are so many informative pics to show you where to pin but Rusty hit it on the head; it depends on your fat where you inject or if its pretty fatty.
