+ 4 HEATING YOUR GEAR ***
Most of you veterans and experienced lifters have your one way of pulling and you’re going to probably keep doing it the way you think you know is best which logically we all may THINK we know the best way. Been doing a lot of research on this lately and it’s a huge part of the game, if you can completely eliminate PIP it’s a game changer. Well I can’t promise anything just wanna give you guys some insight as to what I’ve been doing and see it helps a fellow member or two out. So for years my way of ‘hearing the gear’ was putting some hot water in a mug leave the water below the stopper and microwave the mug for about a minute then leave it there for 15, been doing this for years but still struggle with PIP from time to time. Recently I have been skipping my normal routine that takes 20 mins for an injection and what I do now is pull in into the syringe with the draw needle on pull it down a little take it into your bathroom and hit the syringe with a hair dryer on hot from every angle we’re talking a total of 30-40 seconds.. GUYS for me this mixed the compound up way better I could visually see there was no impurities or crystal break down from the compound left just heat it up and mix it around a little. This cycle I started two weeks ago is prop cyp and eq absolutely NO PAIN from the prop so far which for me is mind blowing. Just wanted to share this basic info that a lot of you probably already know but if it helps one or two people out that’d be awesome. Any feedback also appreciated.

Hair dryer trick is something I started recently too, zero PIP on the cycle I started up recently. Draw oil with 25g and cap it, heat for about 30 seconds rotating syringe with air bubble to mix it, swap out 25g needle with 27g 0.5", good to go. The warm oil injects faster and spreads better leading to less chance of an oil deposit.
I put everything into the barrel then place it on top of an Infra red heater in the lounge and leave it on there for a few minutes, I only tend to do that if one of the compounds tends to be a bit thick though, but it really makes a difference to injection speed through a 25G.
Have you tried it without heating it first?
I have yeah and can get away with it on TRT or cruise or whatever but when I got multiple compounds in the syringe when I do it without heating it it’s pretty hard to push through and also have had some PIP so like to heat it a bit so it’s easier to inject. The hair dryer trick takes 30 seconds pull it down to 2.5 if you have 2ml’s let’s say heat it from every angle shake it up a bit with the draw needle on still then swap the needle after its nice and liquidy. What about yourself?? Which do u prefer?
I haven't had PIP from anything in years except DHB. I never noticed much of a difference heating vs not heating. Only thing that works for me is cutting it with another compound that doesn't have PIP. When I have heated it I'd just run it under hot water for a minute. I've definitely noticed it effecting its viscocity.
I inject everything into an empty bottle and place it on a cheap coffee mug warmer which I purchased on Amazon for 8 bucks. I check it and shake it every two minutes until the glass feels a little hot. I draw it and let it cool down until it’s warm, and I pin it
Takes some time but sounds thorough for sure, good answer
Maybe about five minutes. I have another method that isn’t the smartest, but works well if I’m in a rush. I use the same empty bottle, fill in and the use a small torch lighter, heat for three seconds, shake, and repeat a few times. Once the bottle is hot, I draw it hot. Let it cool until it’s warm against my lips and inject. NEVER INJECT IT HOT!!!! FML when I did. Hold the torch more than four seconds and risk having the bottle explode in your hand. It happened to me recently. Losing the gear is what really sucks about it.
Wife in bathroom had this little lamp for heating wax/oils, I just take off top, set syringe next to lamp bulb for 1 min and done, ready to pin.
Nice!!! My wife will probably get pissed off if I use it though, LOL
Draw the dose, cap the draw needle, place the syringe into a tap hot glass of water without submerging the plunger, take a shower, swap out the draw needle, pin.
Good answer, appreciate the input
Microwave seems like it could cause deterioration although I am speaking out of my ass and using retard logic. I just use a clean ziplock in a bowl of hot water from the sink. Throw in either whole bottle or just the syringe capped full of gear with the opening of bag closed above the water line so no possibility of water getting in unless material failure which you’d notice. Honestly let it run super slow on highest heat while I shower and by the time I’m out it’s always been up to atleast body temp and have never had crystals left after. I am blessed in terms of test very rarely get pip unless it’s a suspension, 400-500mg/ml, or TNE with Guaiacol (ew).
I have tried heating pads, mug warmers, water, hair dryer, etc. This little ritual is just the easiest and most efficient for me- think this is one of those things that will vary from guy to guy and nobody is necessarily right or wrong. Try it all and pick the best. Hope you have a good one brother!
I put the oil syringe in the microwave for 7 seconds
How do you pull that off? This could be promising.. Obviously draw back a bit further from the needle take the draw needle off maybe put it on a small plate making sure the open side of the syringe is tilted up at a slight angle from the plate or whatever. Thinking about experimenting with this also
I wrap my loaded and capped syringe in plastic and place it in the crack of my girlfriend’s ass right before she does her morning pushups
Haha now those are the kinda answers I think we’re all looking for. Well played
That’s esoteric knowledge right there bro, only for the initiated
I run my capped syringe under hot water for about 30 seconds and it goes in like butter, I haven’t gotten pip from anything in a couple years
I just put a luer lock cap on my barrel, wrap it in my heating pad, go about my normal morning routine, then pin when I’m ready to go do my morning cardio. I also inject with 30gx1” needles, so the heating definitely helps with the viscosity and flowing through that small needle. Makes DHB tolerable.
If you can get no PIP from suspension then I’ll really be impressed
Thanks for posting this
