Quad doesn't like being pinned anymore.
Started my 3rd cycle the other day. Test P and NPP EOD. My first cycle was 400mg of test e and I just rotated my quads for the injection site. Each one went in like butter and never had any problems.
My second cycle was 500mg test e and 600mg EQ and kick started with test prop. I started rotating delts, quads, and glute injection sites. About half way through the cycle, when I would go to pin my quads, the muscle would tighten up. It would tighten up so much that the pin just straight fing hurt. It doesn't matter if I jab it, push it in slow etc... Well that lasted for the rest of the cycle.
Now I just started this new cycle, and started with the glute. Now I just pinned my quad, and again, the muscle tightened up so much that I couldn't handle the pain and had to pull it out and reinsert. It tightened up a little bit more, but not as bad as the first time. I was able to finish the injection.
I had a bad experience with injecting in my delts on the my second cycle. I got an infection. Luckily I was able to catch it and got antibiotics to clear it up before it got out of control.
My question is, why the hell are my quads doing this? It really irritates me because my quads are my favorite place to go. And like I said, I had a bad experience with my delts and kinda nervous to try them again.
Edit- I use 25g pins.

o it was hell both times I pinned quads. Hell anyplace I pin hurts and gets swollen. Its called being SOFt...hahah jk
I just want some slick lil chick to marry me and pin my traps and tris for me... Where are you soul mate!!!
That's weird. I tried pinning with a 23g in my quad the other day for the first time this cycle and it hit and bounced right out of my hand like I was throwing a dart at a brick wall haha. Hurt like a SOB. Switched to 25g and slid right in.
Yeah, it's amazing how much pressure you can apply with a 23 some times and not break the skin. I find this got worse as time went on. The 25s are much better, but I use an 18 for the draw now. The 23 was OK for both.
Try massaging the quad and taking your index finger and pushing where you plan to pin..relax and do it again amd again untill it's numb. Lean a bit so ur leg is limp and pin. Don't even thin about where it's going..in fact kind of squint and think of it as going into your glute. Your issue is that the muscle gets all tense and freak out knowing that it's going in that spot.
I always pin my Quads, the right more than the left. Mostly because the left always gives me DOMs. I have noticed two things over time, one it's getting harder to insert the needle and two some parts of the quad are very sensitive to being jabbed, so I move around a bit until I find a dull spot and insert.
I think the change is for two reasons, one being more muscle and the other being the tightness you mentioned. I recently switched to 25g pins, was using 23g for quite a while. This definitely helps, but I hate the difference in the speed of the injection.
I'll try injecting my butt at some point, but I'll have to do some reading first.

AnonIve got the exact same thing. I cant even usae a slin pin in my thigh or I jump through the roof. Something is deffinitely different because I forced my self last week and did a GH shot in the thigh and I have a bruise there. Never had any bruising before.
Still hurts. Ughhhh
AnonMaybe try pinning in this position:
Your quad muscle shouldn't be able to contract much when you have it all stretched out sitting like that.
PS: I don't know if it will hurt to pin in that position, I have never tried it.
I could give that a shot. Guess it can't hurt anymore than it already is.
There are a couple things you can try before injecting in your quad that "MIGHT" help!
Try stretching the injection site as good as you can to loosen up the muscle so it won't tighten up, or your second option could be to put a heat pad on it to loosen the muscle up, now like I said this is just something you can try that "MIGHT" help, but I have seen around it works for some people! Good luck and happy growing!
I'll give them a try. Thanks
No1I get this often with any muscle im not sure why it does it
