Quad pip confusing me

ad

Hey all, usually i do my glutes and delts but this week I decided to try my quad for the first time.
Was pinning 2mil of deca/test and all went fine.
I was expecting pip as its a virgin site but the location of the pip is about 5 or 6 inches lower than where I pinned.
Is that just coincidence you reckon or am I missing some quad knowledge ?

This used to happen to me all the time. I'm still freaked out by quad shots because of it; I was literally using "the pip is about 5 or 6 inches lower than where I pinned" rhetoric with my boy today...

from what I gather, however, it's one of those shit happens and it's ok things.

Not coincidence the oil follows gravity. I typically slap my upper thigh and inject off to the right missing the veins that are visible. There is almost no pain whatsoever. Injections in the middle quadrant are more susceptible to irritation in my experience. Use a 1 1/2 in needle...punch the spot on your upper thigh you wish to inject...and stick..slow..steady...painless

Second quad pin was Thursday and that went fine just the expected pip.
Think I'll leave my right glute for a while took 3 attempts to do one shot , 1st was blood when aspirated and second hit a nerve. Prior to that kept getting blood when pulling syringe out of right glute which I never get anywhere else so presume I should just let be for a while. As I have fairly good sized lats and traps tempted to try one of those next

Glad the quad inject went smooth bro. Glute shots are definitely tricky doing yourself. Blood when aspirating isn't good but a little blood after isn't anything to worry about. If you try a glute shot again just pull the needle out slow...kind of gives your skin time to seal. I've never done traps. The thought of having pip there Ill pass on haha. I hit quads...chest and shoulders. Occasionally glute. Another member mentioned lats so I'm actually going to get my lady to jab me there tomorrow for the first time

Had a little muscle spasm when my lady was injecting. Only injected 1 1/2 cc of test. Dont feel a thing today so Id say it went well.

I've been doing this for 20+ yrs and still cant stand quad injects.
No problems at all with glutes,,delts,,biceps,,etc

Does it mean I missed the muscle?

Thx for the info . Doesn't seem to be any infection leg looks normal just the pain above the knee, guessing it can't sink past my knee :-)
