The glute "twinge"
ad
This happens almost every time I pin my ass. As I'm pushing the needle in, I get kind of a dull twinge almost like the needle is going through something it shouldn't be hitting. Its usually not very painful, just feels weird when it happens and kind of makes me uncomfortable. I was just curious if this happens to anyone else. By the way, I know I'm hitting the right spot (upper outer cheek quadrant).

dude i get the same thing all the time if i do it my self if my missus dose it for me its not so bad because i can bend over more lengthnig the muscle and this also makes it easy to inset the needle
GearofWarLol. You're not the only one bro. I get the "twinge" a lot when pinning quads too. My ankle will shake a bit. Just passing near or through a nerve I would imagine.
TheCaptainI get the feeling it happens more when I overthink the pin. Always makes me a bit queasy when it happens haha
Oh yes. The flinch. Seems to me it happens when i am paying too much attention, focusing too much on the needle itself. I have been able to control it with a more relaxed approach.
Hang the leg limp. Stand on something with one leg and let the other one hang. Totally relaxed.
TheCaptainYea I've noticed that too. And thanks, I'll try it.
I have very muscular glutes and I've had to shorten the needle to 25g 5/8th to avoid shitty pins...
TheCaptainThat seems like a good idea. I've heard people in nursing say that you only need to go in about a half inch if theres not much fat.
