![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I've just finished reading 2Thick's injections site, very informative and great detail. My problem is that I don't have the luxury of a happy helper to inject for me (girlfriend does not know I'm going to do AS, she went mad when she saw me doing creatine, can you imagine how excitable she will get if I ask her to help me jab!!!). Does anyone have any tips on how to inject into your own glute, I mean I was trying to figure it out last night and it seemed real awkward, is there a trick to doing it? Do you lie down, stand up, have a double jointed back!!?? Or is it just plain awkward Some of you guys must have some tips, please. My first jab is tomorrow morning. thanks Starski Thanks IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() double jointed back... that is the best way. It is fairly ackward, but not as hard as it seems. I have no help and have only one joint in my back. I sit on the edge of the bed and just turn and stick. It hurts less if do it just a little under the pant line. If you go to low it hurts. The thigh does not hurt much at all. I do six shoots a week, so I use them both. I like the thigh the best. ------------------ "Obsession is passion. Use it. Make it your strength." -by Puc IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I only have 23, 1 1/2inch. Yeah I have test, sus250. Hurts the same the next day anywhere, but injecting does not hurt my thigh. The pin hurts my glutes, I don't look forward to it. ------------------ "Obsession is passion. Use it. Make it your strength." -by Puc IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Fish, looks like my reply crossed with yours. I heard that putting your pins in the freezer compartment before using them stops them stinging when you inject (I think you let them warm to just above freezing before sticking). I'll let you guys know if that works tomorrow. Starski IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() bro, just stand on one leg (the one on the cheek you aren't injecting into) relax the glute you are injecting into and jab the baby in there. If you are scared of the sting just rub the spot down with ice for a few seconds before injecting and you won't feel a thing. Just be slow and get a good grip on the syringe and squeeze it very slow. It's really easy as hell, i've always done my own glute injections!! IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Putting the dart in is easy, go slow and you'll hardly feel anything. I just stand on one foot and look in the mirror. Pulling back on the pluger is the bitch of it! I heard lying down with a pillow under your hip makes it easier. I just have someone do it for me. Very easy that way. Well besides the little bitch won't put the dart in or take it out. I have to do all that. What a pussy. Later, Green IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I find the right glute easier to inject in also. Sometimes if I don't stretch out first my lats cramp from twisting around so hard and it hurts like hell. For the first time today I injected sust and eq together and when the needle went in it felt like acid. Hurt like a bitch. I have never had any problems before. I have to do 4 shots a week so I try to hit my right glute once a weeks to give one of my quads a break. It is kinda hard for me to hit my left glute so I only do that one once in a while.
DrZ PS use 1.5 inch for glutes and 1 inch for quads. IP: Logged |
