Is a 5/8 inch pin ok to use for delt and thigh injections? I'm only going to be injecting 1 cc of fina eod. My BF% will be in the lower teens(i'm hittin two 8 day DNP cycles before a winny/fina cycle) and i have pretty lean legs...

I would say your really pushing it there. You might be alright in the shoulders but unless you have bird legs I wouldn't go with any less than 1". Beside pins are cheap and easy to get. Just my opinion. Good luck.

I use 5/8 for delts -although I also used 1"-and 1 or 1.5 inch pins for quads and glutes. The latter are your biggest muscles thus you need to penatrate deeper than the all the rest.

I use 5/8 to put the Primo in the butt. But i agree with the other guys. It is pushing it.

I use 5/8 in the thigh all the time, no probs, you have to realize that on your glutes, you need the extra inches to push through the fat. You don't have that much fat on your thigh, that muscle is laying right beneath the surface.

I used a 5/8 about two weeks ago on my quad and got a big knot. Obviously, the needle wasn't long enough for me. Maybe in your delt it would be OK, but why risk it.

Yeah, you are probably okay with a 5/8 in the quad or shoulder, but I wouldn't even consider it for your glute.

I use 5/8 in my delt all the time with Winny it works fine for me. But I would use an 1 or 1.5 anywhere else. Why risk wasting your juice

5/8" should be only for the delts. there is no way you can get a pin thats just a little bigger then a 1/2" pin through the fat of your ass.

Remember luke "through the fat of your ass"

sorry Spack, i use a 5/8 inch because there wheren't 1/2 inch (25 gauge) available at the pharmacie.
Give me a 1/2 inch and i will stick it in the butt. Agreed this is looking for trouble, but i will do it anyway.
Maybe i just want to get away with it.
I only shoot 2 cc's at a time. When i take 600 mgr/week of Primo i take the 3 shots at one time. 3 sticks with a 5/8 inch.

Same here 1.5's all the way around. If you think they are too big, then do not put them in the whole way.
