needle question

Hey guys quick question
I have been pinning the glutes for the last 3 weeks (gp test cyp 250) 1ml 2 times a week using a 25g 1inch pin .
Is that a good size needle?
Do you recommend going bigger and/or longer?
Thanks for the help ...

Anonit depends on how much bf you have.. I prefer the 25g but seems like some of the guys here don't.. but I pin my delts not my glutes ;-)
Nasty81Nate22 or 23g 1.5" on the glutes everytime, wouldn't do it another way.
yup I agree bro!!
Eric090585well it's been said by everyone already, but extra info never hurts lol
i personally use a 23g 1" for my ass & thighs..but i have almost no bf so it's not an issue for me...i'd stay away from the 25g if i were u..
I always use a 1.5 22 or 23ga for glute injections. When I do use 25ga for injections on other parts of the body I draw up the oil with a larger needle and then change to a 25ga to inject.
The pharm grade preloads usually come with 1" needles, so as Rods says below a 1" is usable, especially with 1ml, unless you are very high in bf%.
In the future if you go to higher volume (2mls+) injections, I recommend getting away from 25ga on glutes because of the amount of pressure and time to push the oils through. My hand started shaking one time and it made for a painful experience (with blood) afterwards.
AnonAll depends how much fat you got in that area, if you are lean you can do it with 1" easily. If you got a bit of fat best use 1.25" and go all the way in. 1.5" is overkill propably for really fat folks.
It's recommended to use a 1.5 inch needle on glutes. You can get away with a 1 inch just make sure you stick the needle all the way in and be extra carefull not to break the needle.
