needle size for glute?

[huge23000]

Hey guys, what needle size do you reccomend for glutes? Is 1" too small? thanks

Save that for delts & tris, 1 1/2 is preferred for glutes

1.5 for me

1.5" gets the job done nicely, but they were pretty intimidating the first time I saw them..

yea, 1" can be used, but i agree wit radar, 1 1/2 makes ur life so much easier.

23 gauge, 1 1/2" is the norm

For EQ, would you draw with a 23g and shoot with a different 23g needle, or draw with a bigger gauge from a multi-use vial?

Draw with an 18 gauge and always shoot with a different needle, use sterile technique, do a search,

I have used 1 inch needles in my glute, it depends upon your size and Body Fat percent, at 5'5" 10% BF I feel I am getting in the muscle, but normally use a 1.5 inch needle

You don't necessarily have to draw w/ 18g, it's just much quicker...

Never had any probs drawing and poking with the same pin, if using two bottles, then I would consider switching to a sterile, sharper pin.
