What's up a friend of mine gave me some 22g/1in pins. Can I use these for quad and glute. I've know everyone says 22g/1.5" or 23g/1" but I'd hate for these to go to waste. but not as much as my gear!tanks
Peace

I would use them in the thigh. If you have real low body fat, then you can use them in your butt. L8R

The gage recommendations really have more to do with comfort than what body part can handle it, and some injectables also work better with thicker needles. Which body part you elect to inject in will determine the length you need. For most, a 1.5" needle is a bit long for the quad, but works well for the glute. A 1" needle works well in the quad, but in most cases is too short for the glute, unless you have an extremely low BF%. Not much difference between 22g and 23g, both will work fine in either the glute or quad. So to answer your question, your 1" needles will work fine in the quad, but might have problems getting into the glute.
