Lump/knots forming in glutes

ad

I'm in the 4th week of my first cycle, been doing 1/2 a cc twice a week. I've been alternating between my left and right ass cheek. The first week was incredibly painful to the point I could barely walk. Now the pain has subsided significantly but I have a knot on my left ass cheek that is more noticeable when I flex and almost feels like muscle. Anyone have a similar experience? Will this go away? The knot has been there for like a week

I was just going to ask that! I've been injecting test prop EOD in my buttocks, alternating sides but because I'm a wimp afraid of needles, I'm using 1 inch 25G and maybe it isn't long enough cause I got the knots in my glutes too and it's freaking me out. No way I'm gonna pin my quads or delts.

In the glutes it should always be a case of deep intermuscluar injection, using an inch pin just won't go deep enough.
Not meaning to sound like wanker, but if you are a wimp towards needles then you may want to rethink the whole anabolic thing as you really need to confident in what you do when injecting as shitting yourself during an injection won't be a good look.

You're exactly the guy I was going to refer to... You've got 50lbs on the man, and a lower BF to boot.

The Impastable's picture

Are those really your stats?

cturtle46's picture

Yes, why? Not everyone is 6'1 ya know.....Jose Raymond is short too. My weight went up a bit....don't know the exact bf% so it's a wild guess...

Rusty is only 3ft 2" and that's on a good day. Good news is when he squats he only has to move the bar 4" and it counts as a good rep.

Lol that's naughty. ...
Ass to grass Rusty

I know, but even at 5'4" I'd consider your weight and bf% something to work on prior to starting up a cycle.

How deep are you in your cycle, and what concentrations of AAS are you using? I know you're using 1" needles, so that may also be an issue.

It will be the oil not dispersed correctly into the muscle ....may be the pin wasn't deep enough...you often find this when kids use anabolics as they forget about reading up on a few of the most important things...like injection protocol.

Didn't read below mate....have a fucked up? ....again lol

Arrr shit my bad....what happened to Bigmak?

The Impastable's picture

I believe he's on timeout.

tonytulo's picture

No hes a fuckwit.

The Impastable's picture

Lmao, well then, that settles it!

Eriday's picture

Well now I'm officially freaked the fuck out

Pale's picture

He is a kid, shut it down boys.

growthman's picture

My bad. I don't advise aas for the youngins.

vhman's picture

Go home and throw it in the trash. Second, don't buy drugs from strangers on the street (just strangers on the internet)...

Eriday's picture

Like I said this guy is a friend of mine. Even if I wanted to I can't just stop taking it cold turkey, right?

Eriday's picture

It is my cycle. I got the gear from a friend

The Impastable's picture

He was referring to the guy he got the AAS from I believe.

I'd throw it away, not worth the trouble when there's an abundance of quality lab's out their.

Probably bunk by the sound of it too, as you state below that your not feeling any effects yet and by week 4 you should be, I know I'm feeling long esters starting to kick by week 3. Libido and strength increase are all their at that point.

Likewise at 24 it's not in your best interests to be using gear, we have a no advice to under 25's regarding cycle advice. This is just a heads up as you've just joined.
By all means stick around and soak up the training and diet protocol's, and make sure you throw that shit you've running ffs, lol.

Not to be harsh but your first problem is you do not know exactly what you are injecting and that is just a horrible idea. If it is a long ester you wont feel anything for a few weeks. Personally I would stop immediately, do some research on this site. There are guys here that have so much diet, training and cycle advise it is amazing. Be open to suggestion, post your stats, workout and diet and you will get a ton of great suggestions. STOP NOW!!!

What are u taking?

I wouldn't do delts if ur ass was that sensitive.
Even if first time virgin muscle, u shouldn't be barely able to walk unless sustonon or ester. Or overdosed longer ester.

Are u deep enough with needle? Are u going slow?

growthman's picture

Switch to delts for a week or two. Warm up the oil before injecting. Foam roll that ass til the lumps subside. Sit on a hot flax bag or electric heat pad. Stair master or incline treadmill squeezing the glutes hard for a few sessions helps me break that shit up too. Good luck.

First of all thanks to all of you guys for responding. This gonna sound fucking retarded because it is. I don't know the concentration of the test, I got it from a buddy who knows more about it than I do and I've been following his advice. Secondly I have not noticed much of an effect from the roids yet, what's with that

The Impastable's picture

Find out from your "buddy" what concentration it is. It could either be shit gear, or it could be highly concentrated and would require you to cut it down with more oil... any other side effects? It's your call, but you may want to toss the gear if you don't know the concentration and your buddy doesn't either...

Do not apply pressure to the knots, that could possibly make things worse. Use a heating pad on the area to ease the pain...

And live life below is absolutely correct. Add more sites to your rotation... or you're asking for an abscess... each pin site should have a rest period of two weeks minimum... Add your ventro-glutes in, your quads as well (3 sites per quad IIRC).

But, and i strongly advise you to consider this above all else, do not keep pinning if you don't know whether the concentration is causing the pain, or whether the gear is dirty. I don't care how "buddy-buddy" you guys are, but I wouldn't trust using a friend's fucking water bottle, let alone injecting myself with gear from them.

Eriday's picture

Alright so I say I want to stop. What now

The Impastable's picture

Wait two weeks then run PCT.

chunkypbnj's picture

Yup. It's part of the game. Try having someone else pin your glutes. You're probably moving the pin around once its in. What mg per cc is your gear? Is it high mg? I won't touch anything over 300 per ml. Too painful!

Search "Site Rotating" , it's your 1st cycle so soreness is normal due to virgin muscles, but the knots are from you not rotating your injection site.. I assume you're running test e or c, you need at least 4 pin sites. Also I hope you're not running a high mg testosterone

Now research some more and you'll be fine.

vhman's picture

What is the milligram of what you're injecting? Is it a high milligram product (500mg)?

Eriday's picture

Also not nearly as sever but I feel knotted up in my right glute too, I can feel it when I flex, just feels like the muscle is best to shit
