Pinning question.

I've been pinning prop ed since January-ish with a 29g slinpin with both safflower oil and mct oil as a carrier...mct has been a breeze safflower was much tougher but doable
 
I think the smallest I have gone with is 28 gauge. You're onto a good strategy. I don't have documentation to support the idea, but it seems clear less scar tissue is created using a smaller needle.
 
Gonna try it. I'm thinking it will take a lil while longer. But it's a new blast to me so why not. Gotta confuse the body right babe?
 
All depends on recipe and carrier oil. Thicker carrier oil plus more hormone per ml will need a larger guage needle. I make my own and make my product thin, but my last cycle was 7 or 8 injects a day. 1 aas inject per day so smallest guage kind of meant a lot to me. Was pinning with a 28g in my delts. Never felt the needle or the gear. Was beautiful.
 
I only use 27 gauge 1/2 inch needles for everything [emoji51]

By everything do mean compounds as opposed to injection site? As i understand, for instance, pinning the quad or in delt 1/2 would be perfect..not to short and long enough to deep into the muscle but not so deep you hit a bone..but say in the quads, wouldn't you want to go 1.5" for maximum dept benefit?

I have been using 25 had i have to say at times i wish i had a smaller needle. Would 27 be that much of a difference?
 
I just switched to 27g 1/2" needles and they are fine for shoulders and quads. I'm not "lean" my any means, maybe 13-14% BF and it's fine for me. For a glute injection, I still use the 1.5" 25g.

Sorry just saw this, been on a long vacation. Was planned for one week and ended up being several weeks because we had so much fun.

No, I pin it everywhere, glutes, quad ... etc. [emoji106]

Nice to have you back my brother..hope you had a pleasant vacation and rested up.. got any plans for a cycle coming up?

I'm pulling bloods myself tomorrow..list my last week on a 8 week blast..and looking forward to it actually. Lately bro. Again, welcome back.
 
No plans currently just doing my trt thing right now.


You seeing good gains from your current cycle ??

Yes..major increases in on all my lifts, especially where it counts such as squat and deads...my two least favorite movements LOL.

My diet has been super clean...although I don't bother with the weight scale, and I don't track macros... I put on noticlby lean mass..with Dbol and 600 Test I saw zero bloat...I'm certain the Mast had a great deal to do with that.
Loving how I look and feel. I went about this as close to text book as possible..I'm actually at Quest right how about to pull bloods.

How low do you go on TRT dose?
I start mine Monday..was thinking taper done from 600 to 400 to 200 progressively..
In addition, while getting down to 200 I'm seriously thinking of running Var. Some of the guys at my gym that compete in the NPC say they love how a low dose of Var help maintain their gains between blasts...I'd like to given it a go myself.

Open to suggestion/critique..
@legendary sorry to jack the thread bro. You know it ain't nothing but love for ya baby!
 
Just like Inquiring Mind, I'll this thread to ask my questions...

Tomorrow I'm pinning for the first time and I've got to go get my stuff at the pharmacy. What exactly am I looking for?
What type of needles? Should I take 2 types, one to take the oil and one to inject into my muscles?
Should I use longer needles for my Glutes, compared to my shoulders, quads, lats?

I'll be honest, a tiny bit stressed to pin myself. Just gotta get used to it I guess. Someone please help !

In all honesty, your question is relevant to the titled thread...I went on a tangent..LOl

In any event, yes, to all your question. 18g to draw and at least 25g or 27g if they have them to inject.

If your relatively lean 1" will suffice all over, but convention will prevail that 1.5" for the glute for the sake of getting "deep into the muscle". To each their own.

Heat the oil (NOT in a microwave!!) under hot water and inject SLOWLY...that will mitigate any post injection pain.

Don't stress...watch a YouTube vid, get your confidence up, and pin that shit...that's where all the fun in this shit is at!

Can't stress enough that you maintain aseptic technices (alcohol wipes)...

Good luck.

This sounds like a good plan to taper down, although technically you aren't in trt throwing some var in, .....but I'm prescribed 300mg per week test for trt.

I always believe to let everything internal just relax a little. I would save the var for another time to be honest. Health first bro[emoji106]

Thanks a lot of the answer man. This is the only shit that has been stressing me out because I'm absolutely fucking clueless. I'm going to watch a couple of youtube videos right now and tomorrow morning will buy my serynges in a pharmacy or where ever they sell some. I might just go to wal-mart and say I need to shoot insulin because I'm a diabetic :).

You say heat the oil, but when do I know it's ready? And I mean, I heat it in the bottle before taking it out or when it's already in the serynge, right before the injection?

Do I need to throw away the serynge everytime or can I rinse it and use it again?

I've got all my supps and training ready, just haven't had time to go buy them damn.

Throw away used needles and syringes. They cheap and there's no reason to reuse.

If you aren't comfortable going into a store to purchase, I'll recommend MedLabGear. I've purchased from him many times and it's always shipped in a timely manner and he hasn't messed up an order of mine yet. Just throwing that out there.

My advice to you is buy 18 or 20g needle for drawing out of the vial. Buy 1cc syringes. Switch the 18/20g needle with a 25g 1.5" needle for glute injections (or 25g 5/8" needle for quad and shoulder injections). Before you inject, wipe the area with alcohol wipe AND LET IT DRY. Watch a few YouTube videos.

As a warning, you will be injecting into "virgin muscle" muscle that has never had a needle or oil injected. You will have some slight pain/soreness the next day. That's just how it goes with virgin muscle.

Good luck. I remember my first injection. I was scared and then just stabbed myself. It was a rush. 4 weeks later into my test E only cycle it hit me like crazy and I would get a solid erection just thinking of tits in my face.

Have everything out and ready for use. BE SAFE!
