Glute injections

[Tommyboy6]

Hi guys,

New to the forum and this may be a stupid question,I'm due to start my 1st cycle of test E for 10 weeks and was think of injecting my glutes Monday &thursday.

Is this do able on my own? Or would I be better considering delts if I have no one to help me?

Thanks.

First cycle....Have you ever "pinned" before??

If no, than I highly suggest you don't. You have to be very careful when injecting there as you don't want to hit your nerve. Not to mention if you are using smaller tips and you have an oil based it is harder to get out of the syringe and you dont want to risk snapping off a tip in your glute...

Thanks for the reply mate, no I haven't ever pinned before but have done a lot of research on 1st cycles etc.

Would you suggest to pin in the delts then as opposed to the glutes?

Glutes are better in my opinion, if you know what you are doing...If not than I personally would say Quads.

But you are the one pinning, therefor it really all depends on what you are most comfortable with.

Glutes are the easiest to pin. Big muscle group, not extremely vascular. If you find it uncomfortable to twist around then your proply too fat to shoot juice anyways! But stand in front of a mirror find the spot, some like high on the hip some lower and more interior area really no different, relax and that's real important relax your muscles in your ass and stick that bitch quick and steady. Don't get nervous and shake around just relax and slowly push the plunger. The needle won't break off, if you hit a blood vein it will stop bleeding very quickly, and there is not a lot of nerves in the side and lower side of the glutes. Main thing is just relax do not tense up and keep it all super clean ! No problems

Glutes are the easiest for someone doing 1st cycle. Put the needle slowly in (it will maybe hurt a little bit as you are going through the outer skin but once you are through the skin you won't feel a thing) and make sure it is in the top outer area of your glute.

Slowly push the needle further in until it is all in, I do this slowly because then I will know if I am getting close to a nerve, you will feel pain. If you are going near a nerve just slightly pull the needle out but not all the way out and put it in a slightly new angle. Then slowly pull the plunger out to make sure you aren't in a blood vein, if everything is right then air bubbles will come, if you are inside a vein then a blood will show itself in the syringe.. then you take the needle all the way out and pick a new spot. Next slowly inject the oil, once the oil is in wait for about 20 sec so the oil won't leak out of the muscle.

As you get more advanced with pinning you can try quads and delts if you like.

Glutes are easy and painless. You can do them alone.

Every time I pined quads it hurts like a bitch for several days. Glutes are smooth like butter

I like quads simply because you can sit down, relax.. and the entire thing is right in front of you. But if you are worried about pain, or hitting a vein or nerve.. I would go with glutes. If you can't twist around and do it yourself safely.. then maybe you are not in good enough shape to be doing a cycle lol

 

[Tommyboy6]

Thanks for all the replies guys. Relaxing will be abig part of it with it being my 1st cycle and being nervous etc.

ain't nothing to be nervous about. People get certified in phlebotomy in less than a week. Just be relax.. get comfy and pin. You don't even feel the needle going in. If your nerves are all riled up.. then things are going to be 10 times worse.

I get nervous before every pin and then after it I'm always like that was easy..

3 things have helped me pin.

1 pinch the area with your nails before pinning.. don't even feel the needle go through he skin. And personally that's the hard part

2 get completely naked if doing glutes.. clothes get in the way everywhere.. sounds stupid but it works

3 breathe.. don't hold your breath because you will get light headed and could faint..

Take your time and you will be fine.. you will be surprised how easy it is when your finished

Funny you mention that cause I used to be a phlebotomist and Im nervous of the idea of pinning. But after reading through the tips in this thread I think Im ready to pull the trigger.

Best of luck to ya tommyboy on your upcoming pin!
