Maybe someone can help an old fart out who wants to give a pec injection a shot.

Where exactly should I pin on the chest? If someone has a picture or video of them injecting or someone else that'd help a ton.

Read alot of forums, too many different answers, too many different pin sizes. But haven't seen one real video of someone actually putting it in the right place.

For anyone that has done it or is doing it now, what should I expect? Any pain afterwards?

I'm done with hitting quads. The injection itself is always pain free. It's the damn not being able to walk because of extreme pain for 2 straight days that kills this old man and the wife doesn't like me limping when I'm trying to........... bake a cake if ya know what I mean. :)
 
saw a video with Roman Fritz discussing pec shots, he loves them. He said he did inner low pec shot and out low oec shot. Since he is an O bb competitor and I’m not even that big it was not so great for me. Not bad but I had some soreness about a day later for a few days. Maybe when I get some more meat there.

He aid he could do 1ML shots comfortably in both locations. Obviously ymmv
 
I don’t know about 2 inches in but I would agree with 2 inches above the nipple. I try to go for the meatier part of the chest or else I won’t get deep enough and will have a lump for a few days
 
I have been interested in this myself. I was told it was a bad idea a few years ago because of veins in the area. To me it makes sense, I have a lot more meat in my pec than my delts and I know I can handle 2ml shots with a 23Ga 1 inch in delts. I definitely think I can handle a pec shot.
 
Easiest injection by far for me besides Delt injections. Only thing I don’t like is when I get a lump… Becaus when working out it is very noticeable.
 
Im the odd one out that knots up every time wth pecs, pinned with a 25g and 27g in upper, mid and lower and 0,5-1.2cc
 
When pinning on the chest, it's crucial to be precise to avoid complications. The ideal spot is usually the upper outer part of the pectoral muscle. I'd recommend looking up anatomical charts to get a better visual. Unfortunately, finding reliable videos can be tough due to the nature of the content.

From my experience, you can expect some soreness after injecting, but it shouldn't be unbearable if done correctly. Make sure to use the right needle size (typically a 1 to 1.5 inch needle for deep intramuscular injections) and always follow proper sterilization procedures.
 
I've done them more than a few times. I just go to the thickest part of my pec. Only did small amounts of oil, 1ml. Using a 1cc slin pin, 1/2 length.
Several times, I forgot I did it and got some soreness and thought I was getting a gyno flare up lol.

I like upper traps also. Same needle size and same volume of oil. Poke straight down in muscle belly.

Good luck man!
 
I prefer upper pecs using a 31 gauge insulin needle. 30-50 units of oil per pec. I usually wait two days before injecting those sites again.
Test suspension will leave your chest swollen for a few days, making you look like you just got plastic surgery. I knew a guy who used test and tren suspension as a site enhancer before stepping on stage.

Traps I was thinking too bud, but a buddy hit em and said he had some really bad pain for days after. You get that too?
