Pinning the Delts
ad
Hey, all. I am currently running my first cycle. I pinned right quad the first time and my left the second. I am thinking of trying the delt on Sunday, but I have 23g 1.5in pins. Ha... I know 1.5in is way too deep for the delt. Do you think it will be okay to use as long as I am careful to only push in like half the needle? How is a 23g on the delt? Also, I am only pushing 1cc... I assume that is fine, but I want to be sure before doing it. Way new.

It's funny because I'm prescribed test by my doctor now and have only had one shot in the glute until Wednesday. I went to the men's clinic to get another opinion and was shown how to pin the delt. I was given several syringes and pinned a 1.5in 23g in my rt delt. That night I read this post, two days later my right delt hurts like heck! Needless to say, 1in on the delta is good from now on! Lol
I want to thank you all for your input. From all your replies, I gathered that 25g 1in pins would be ideal for me. Thus, I put in an order for them this evening. Thanks again to everyone.
Also, another relevant question (though just a curious one). How much difference do you really notice in a 23g and 25g needle? Of course, I am new so I obviously would not know a thing about it; however, it is strange to think, as someone who does not have the experience, that such a -small- difference would MAKE such a -large- difference... If that makes sense. Clearly, it must make a big difference considering the number of comments suggesting the switch to 25. Just wondering exactly how much of a difference I should be expecting.
The difference from 23 to 25 will definetly be noticable. It will be less painful, the gear will not push through as fast-which is a good thing as well.
I pin 1 cc with 23 gauge 1.5 in. needle into the delt with no problem. Go all the way with the needle, or you may not be in deep enough. DO NOT exceed 1 cc in dosage for this small muscle group. I tried this recently and my delt hurt like hell for 3 days.
Unless hes huge shouldered....never go 1.5 deep. Great way to get into the joint.
dexitrim"as long as I am careful to only push in like half the needle?"
I've done this with 1 1/2" needles. I just eyeball it, and push it in about an inch. I prefer 25g for the smoothness, but 23g will work.
No. as soon as you pull needle out push finger on hole. Just like at docs office. Gives a minute for hole to close back up.
56tooI use 5/8" 25g on delts but have used 23g 1" and that works too.I even use the 5/8 on my quads and 1" on the glutes. Being its your 1st cycle, 1cc will probably cause u some discomfort but nothing a big boy like u couldn't handle! LOL. JUST DO IT
AnonHave to agree buddy, been pinning delts for a few weeks with prop in a 25g x 1 inch pin and no pip at all. I wouldnt fancy tryin to judge a inch and half. Save yourself the pain and get smaller pins.
1.5inch needle is fine if you are a huge ass person. But for normal people thats pretty deep to use on delts. Try to get 1" and its perfect.
23G works thats all I use but I think a more skinny needle would be better for delts like 25g
$7 for brand new 25 x 1
Hell, works for me. Go all in with a 1in?
Inch deep is fine. Smallet pins makes injections flow slowly...so its smooth.
Cool, man. Thanks for the help.
Haha ya plus 25 g is butter compared to 23g IMO
Pin to sky.....lil oil dribble to lube.....aaaaahhhh!
