+ 2 Working out with PIP

ad

This is just a general inquiry. I think most of us experienced users have a good idea of how each of our bodies responds individually to working out with some pip.
Just wondering what kind of experiences and suggestions are out there. For instance, short of a temp, noticeable inflammation, and/or redness in the area, do most of you work the muscle sooner than later? Is it practical in your opinion to work the muscle or muscle group to get the oil dispersed and absorbed quicker? Does it have no affect for you either way?

Just wondering what some best practices are for the common soreness many of us get (short of potential infections, of course).

I pin glutes and quads and then squat the following morning till I just about puke. It almost doesn't feel right having a leg day unless I have some pip.... I know I have issues

Well, I just pinned for the first time a week ago so I'm an expert (sarcasm) and I'll tell ya this. I had a little pip in my quad after pinning yesterday, and you know what helped? Leg extensions, I'm a big fan of working through the pain. Frankly it's the only way to forget about it IMO.

What about big ass baseball knots in the pec area. Trying to do chest with these knots is not fun. I feel a lot of pressure on the negatives makes me feel like something g is gonna pop? Anyone have any experience with that?

Chest is tricky, be careful man. I wouldn't do anymore than a mL. Use 5/8" pins. Inject nice and slow...massage it after pin. Maybe even do chest THAT day too, like all said below work that muscle that day. Stretch too, there's good pec stretches you can do that help me. Not only for pip but stretching your pectoral muscle fascia increases growth and strength ;-)

I have been doing chest Mondays and pinning pecs Tuesday and Wednesday in hopes the knots will be gone by Monday. I use a 1 inch pin and do inject very slowly. Is one inch to deep?

Well you can use it just don't bury it into your skin/muscle. There's virtually no fat on most guys chests, but I guess it depends on your BF%. Me I don't have any, so you don't have to go very deep at all

At 22% would I be okay at 5/8

If you have "baseball sized knots" I think you are doing something wrong. I'm sure someone will sort that out for you.

Maybe not quite baseball size but without exageration atleast the size of a large egg lands best egg.

Simple. Have a big glass of "man the hell up" and work through it.

I used to hate PIP, and while i still dont care much for it there is something weird about knowing im gonna work through it. those first sets when it just hurts like a bitch I like to stretch it, get those deep squats that pulls the muscle. I know theres something wrong with me, but I have moved my leg day up a day just to have a PIP workout session. But it varies on how bad it is, if I cant roll out of bed leg day will wait! LOL

pip sucks... but what I do is,if I get pip in my leg I work out upperbody or vice versa.. but rusty is spot on. hot shower then put a little muscle rub on it and it helps... pip is caused by a couple of things, one is the steroid it self kinda crystalizes and sits on the muscle causing pip, or the oil has a high alcohol content causing the irration, but regardless you need to get the blood flowing to that area to help..

I literally can't workout if the pip is bad in my quads. That's the only area that affects me. I can do legs with pip in my glutes and I can so upper body with pip in my delts. But if I have pip in my quads forget about it. It's really been fuckimg me up lately im about to buy a calander and mark out what days I should inject what muscle so it doesn't interfere with my workouts.

Exactly, I man up and I don't quit. I've been to a point doing an exercise where I almost had tears in my eyes cuz it hurt that bad...but guess what?!!? Later that day and/or the next day the PIP is all gone. Only pussies go home lol ;-)

Thats the spirit ma Smile I mean seriously its not meant to be personal. I know pip sux man...I was running high mg primo for MONTHS and my butt and quads hurt so GO*DAMN bad all the time. '

Jokes, yes lol

I agree. I have found if I start with cardio I can finish whatever workout I was supposed to be doing that day regardless of PIP. I have been dealing with daily injections and the PIP is omnipresent always..

Try not to be so vague next time. ;)

Working out with PIP is a pain in the ass..literally. I use to put ice on it before going in for about 5-10 minutes, but now I just live with it; it comes with the territory dude... You could just rotate sites, say you're doing legs within the next two days, so pin in your delt or anywhere upper body, and visa versa... ultimately you'll get use to it, or maybe that's just me bro...
