Help! 1st injection

ad

I did my 1st injection today with test e 250 is it normal to have a little blood come out when you take the needle out? Needle is 23g 1 1/2 long I went about 1 inch in because of my chicken leg or should I just go ahead and stick it all the way in?

That's a little big and long for legs. Blood is normal, a little bit. If it's more than a little (like spraying out profusely) you're doing something wrong. 1" 25ga are pretty good for most injection locations except for glutes (which IMO should be 1.5" either 23 or 22ga).

Always keep lots of spare needles in the common gauges handy; if you're mixing compounds from multiple vials you should always change to a fresh, sharp point. And have a set of needle-nosed pliers in case it breaks off under the skin and you need to pull it out.

Yeah I'll order me 1" 25g. When I got my 23g 1 1/2 I was like wtf that shit is long

1 inch is plenty for quads (Depending on your bodyfat). I use a slin pin for quads without a problem but then again im pretty lean. A little blood is fine, sometimes you'll get a geyser of blood but it happens every now and then. You have nothing to worry about my friend. The more injections you do the less scary it gets. I promise you. Hell. I remember my first injection took me 30 minutes i was so scared out of my mind. Now im on a 10 week cycle injecting every day without a sweat.

Happy gains brother!
