Needle size !
ad
I have been using 25 1 for my quads and 231.1/2 on my glutes .
However I have been having really hard time after many years to inject my quads with 25 and last time i hit nerve which was really painful !
I always wanted try injecting on my delts but i was kind of scared of 251 !
my question is can I use 291/2 insulin for delt i have seen people claiming even using 30 for delts !
Can i use 29 * 1/2 for quads as well ?

My needle is valerian steel
Problem is with delts is they can't take much oil without some of it running out and also can be very painful if you hit a nerve. I stopped doing them a long time ago when the injections were impacting my training, get it wrong and it affects shoulder pressing/raises, bench press, barbell curls etc. I stick with glutes, quads, ventro's, sometimes teardrop, chest, lats. I use 25g 5/8" everywhere I pin but I am low bodyfat.
Ive used a 26g 1" for delts and it works fine. Nothing is more painful than hitting a nerve in the quad so you've already gotten the worst out of the way. I wouldn't stress doing delts. Just make sure you get into the muscle
The 1" is necessary to get the GEAR where you want it; in the muscle. Anything less is iffy. I'm not a fan of 1/2".
to be completely honest, im on my first cycle currently and my GF is the one pinning me. - (Nurse) - she actually suggests the delts are better for IM injections followed by the tricep, quad and glute (this all will depend on your particular body). - She is worried about glutes as i dont have al ot of fat in my butt, so she doesn't want to hit bone with a 1.5 needle.
my most recent inj was done with a 25 1" on my delt, and it honestly feels great! didn't really feel it go in and super minimal PIP for me the following days. ive been sticking to the 25 1" all around and its working pretty well. as long as you feel the needle go into the muscle + a tiny ways, you should be fine, just dont want to inject the muscle too shallow, otherwise it could leak into the sub q layer of fat or even leak out the channel that the needle made going in.
Actually, delts are not the ideal spot. It has a faster absorption rate due to the smaller muscle group. Thats why you get your immunization shots in the delts and not your ass or quads. Any nurse or doctor will tell you that. Bigger muscle slower absorption.
Unless you weigh 90 pounds soaking wet she is not going to hit bone in your ass. Are you sure she is a nurse?
Lol yes. Ive been dating her for 2 years and helpped put her through nursing school. And thats basically what she said. I told her the ass was fine, since i know more about this stuff than she does. She just knows proper procedures and medical stuff, not screwing around with hormone stuff haha. I just tell her where to poke me and she does.
What does your wife tell you bout size? Mine insists size does not matter.
Dominick77LMFAO
Lol. She isists that size does matter, but never heard a word from her about it. ;)
You forgot the no homo on your last sentence.
Hehe.
You need to penetrate the muscle. Half inch is not enough. You need 3/4 or 1 inch or more depending on site. Use a 25 26 28 29 whatever you want.

1" is the best imo, or even 1 1/4" if your in offseason or fat - or both, lol!
I agree 3/4 is if your lean or hitting a bicep or tricep
Dominick77I use 25, 1' for all my injection sites. From chest to delts to quads to glutes. I personally wouldnt use 1/2 inch on quads, but to each his own. Should be ok for delts.
If u have big delts u can use a 25, you can use the 25 also for your glute or lats.
Only for arms, rear delts and calves I use a 29 slin pin, for quads I wouldn't.
How about 29 for middle deltoid though and 1/2 long enough to go into muscle !?
Should be ok I think, if your oil goes through its fine.
