PIP Advice from what I've learned
I see a lot of post about PIP and have experienced it myself. My ex wife is a RN and has administered more shots than anyone I could possibly know, so I had a discussion with her on this in an attempt to learn straight from a very experienced source.
I'm personally 3 weeks into my first Test E cycle and she has done all of my injections except 1. The 1 I did myself hurt like hell for about 3 days. All of the previous injections she had done for me had 0 PIP, none at all, couldn't tell anything had happened. That's what triggered me asking her.
It all comes down to location. Certain areas of the body are more prone to PIP than others. Quad is probably the most sensitive muscle to PIP in the body. She told me that she never administers any sort of meds through the quad, doesn't matter what it is, it's going to hurt every time. Being an RN, last thing she needs is a patient complaining about something else. Her preference is to do injections in the Ventrogluteal Muscle. Gluteal obviously being in the butt. Use a chart to find the muscle, it's small. If you look in the mirror and put pressure on your leg, you can see a small muscle pop out just at the top of your butt on the side, up closer to the waist line. This is where she has done all of my injections and I don't feel a thing.
So if you're fighting with PIP, I highly suggest you find this muscle and give it a try. You can thank me later.

Quads will make me a gimp. Brutal pip!!!!!!!
That ventrogluteal is a good spot. Very minor if any pip. I could hit it every other day if I had to. Thanks for the info.
Strange, I've always pinned my quads, in fact, I've never pinned elsewhere. PIP doesn't seem to take hold of me, guess it varies from person to person.
Eat your veggies.
My trainer who is a nurse and national level competitor says exactely the same thing. Dont pin your quads, only glutes and delts.
Is there anyway u could have he wife mark with a sharpie and take a pic for better understanding?
i hate injecting quads not so bad once its in just getting it in always kills me for somereason
I feel you bro its just so tight in that area.
AnonNothing worse then a pin from any RN.
I've had more then you can imagine and dread anyone hitting me but me.
And Yes BB...some PIP is greatly appreciated.....hell Bro i might let you hit me sometime in a non HOMO way.
Does the No HOMO fix that shit?
Nah but its cool bro i would still love to hit you. Yeah thats right we got it like that.
The only advice i ever give on pip is MAN UP. Oh and you are correct glutes are my fav location for that very reason, minimum to no pain.
