Delt injection recommendations

ad

What’s going on Bro’s and broettes question here I want to add delts to site spots I have done delts like 2 times and each time when I pull the fucker out it squirts blood out like crazy and made me fucking scared of doing them but I want more rotation. So I was using a 23 1” dug deep should I try a half inch 25 gauge also what’s the most you guys bang out in a delt I don’t think I’d want to do more then a single cc in such a small muscle compared to say quads that can handle 2 to 3cc with a slow injection

Thanks hombre’s much respect for opinions

I use the middle head of my delts and I never put more than 1mL in each. I use 25g 1inch pins and its perfect tbh, but that's the size I always use for every site. I have a friend who uses his rear delts and front delts as well, but I personally don't feel comfortable doing that. He is a lot bigger than me though, so his rear delts can hold more oil than mine could. He also uses his chest and lats, which I have yet to try. Maybe once I put on another 10 lbs or so of muscle.

Currently backloading an insulin needle for my delts, never had an issue.

Delts use a 1". The whole point of an Intramuscular injection is to get the oil into the muscle as far in as possible. Use a 5/8 and it's not deep. Use a half inch it's not deep. Your delt muscle is not as big as you think. I bleed from my delts like a faucet as well as everywhere else I inject sometimes. I stopped using delts. Just apply a little pressure and it stops. Max oil in your delt is 2cc or 1cc depending on medicine type. Just because someone else does more doesnt mean its safe, it means they haven't been bitten in the ass yet. Medical books say Max is 1cc. Medical books and doctors say 1 inch minimum length and 25g is perfect.

A newer study on deltoid injections are saying it is not a safe place at all.

I used to have the same bleeding issue with delts.

When your done pushing the oil through leave the needle in the muscle for about 20 seconds it gives the oil and pressure time to disperse, it usually stops the bleeding or at least minimizes it .

try a 1' 25g its my go to. I always use 1ml barrels as well even if I need to inject more than 1cc , I just do multiple injections .

1 1/2cc test long mixed test short, never over 1 1/2cc,
I’ve had blood squirt out too ztrack would help but it’s so rare I just pin in triangle (look at spot injection site) and push oil nice and slow. Very minimal pip delts are probably my favorite place to pin

Most likely a blood vessel bro, may have been too low on delt, it’s not as far down as you’d think.

1/2-5/8 25g will do fuck 1” in delt lol

Chest, deltoids, triceps... bro, I've never injected these parts of the body before.
I've always used my lol buttocks, I'll never change, I feel good and the pip is minor. No swelling or blood loss.
I use a 0.6x30mm needle, 23G

Delt is a great location.

I use 25g 1" everywhere, delts, quads and ventroglute. I pin 2.8cc 5xweek in my current cycle and never have any problems (knock on wood),everybody is different tho. Delts are my favorite site to pin just make sure not to pin too low on it. Middle of the big meaty part is where you want it

Helps being as big as a brick shithouse like you bro!

Haha, the pot calling the kettle black. Indeed it helps having that extra bit of meat to hold that much oil, wouldn't recommend for everybody but works for me.

GrowMore's picture

Once you use 25g you’ll look at a 23g like it’s a drawing needle.

Have you tried chest with a 27g 1/2”?

Have you tried chest with a 27g 1/2”?

ouch

GrowMore's picture

Honestly mate it’s the easiest, less awkward and least painful place to inject .75ml of oil.

I do 2 finger widths above the nipple and bang it in.

It's true, bro. I tried the 25G and I feel it more solid and the liquid more fluid when it enters.
I went back to 23G because I don't feel pain, especially if I have to do EOD cycles.

I didn’t 100% get that mate.

I’ve had that happen twice on delts. Very rare but there must be a vein in the middle of that thing. No blood on the aspiration tho so I just figured I went thru one.

I use a 27g 1/2” (nipro makes them and I think BD too) on delts and it goes without issue 99% of the time. I’ve even hit them with DHB and it wasn’t bad. I just follow that triangle zone they teach doctors with in the illustrations.

Edit: as said below, I’ve never gone over 1cc in them tho, just cuz I read that’s what they hold well. Who knows I’m sure guys have eclipsed that, but I haven’t.

wanted's picture

I use that 27g 1/2.
Depending on injection schedule i will use 2 pins in a
Delt in diiferent spots of the triangle
So using 2 cc in each delt but 1cc each pin
Its painless

Nice. that makes sense.

27g 1/2 is my favorite pin. I use it everywhere I can.

The outer sweep of the quad is a good spot for those too. And lats

wanted's picture

I have never ever done a quad shot. Maybe with suchba small needle i might try
I shot my calf 10 years ago 1 time with a 1inch pin
And still have night mares of not being able to walk or wven get outta bed for 2 days. Even called outta work and crawled to the bathroom

Injecting quads is NOTHING like injecting calves mate, they can get a bit sore at first for the first few days after with them being virgin muscle and can put squats and deads out of action so plan round it if need be. I tried both calves back in the day and totally agree - the pain for the next 5 days 'trying' to walk around was so bad it was making me want to puke! Never ever again...

Jesus!!! Yea fuck that I wouldn’t touch calves. I have 4 spots on each leg for quads tho. That’s a lotta meat. Would be a shame to waste it.

The outter sweep is my favorite spot to pin. Vastis Lateralis. Sit down relax and throw a pin into the side of ur leg. No pip, no nerves (at least I haven’t hit one yet, knock on wood) and super easy. That’s a real lean part of the leg too so 1/2” is fine. It’s such a big muscle I use the upper half for 1 pin point and the Lower for the other, I just put space the two out in my rotation.

I've had that happen..sounds like you went through a vessel or vein..it's just bad luck..just hit different areas in the side delt till you find the sweet spot bro..it's a good site to use..i also only go 1.5cc max

I simply use a 1" 25 gauge pin. !cc max for debts. It's a bit painful, but issue FREE!

DSTER's picture

I use slin pins 27g 5/8. Great for delts, tris, and chest. I don’t do more then a cc. Half cc of just about anything is painless in these spots.

I think the most I seen in a delt injection was 5cc. He change out syringe in the middle of it because 1 would not hold all the oil. I stick to 1cc. I back fill a 1cc insulin needle and bury it.

DfromPhilly's picture

That dude is a lunatic, whoever he is. There’s a lot of not good going on in that situation.

notit's picture

Lunatic? Maybe.

DfromPhilly's picture

5cc in the delt. I’d say so. Boarderline just for 5cc in general unless he competes lol. Even then. Yikes.

I have my wife hit my rears with a u100. I try doing it my self in front or side but the position causes me to shake to bad like getting a tattoo.
