  • Needle size opinions

    About to start my first cycle and I got 23guage 1 inch 3cc needles. I'm only doing 1cc of test-e per injection.

    Am I on the right track?
    Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    I like 25Gx1-1/2" for glutes and 25Gx1" for my quads.

      i currently use an 18g to draw and 27g 1" to shoot in glutes and quad. 1.5" would be better for glutes tho

        What you have is fine. Just use a different pin to draw the liquid out. Use a new needle when you shoot.

          Only reason I chose the 23gauge was cuz someone said it's easier to push in the liquid with a larger gauge, haha trust me I'd rather have a smaller needle so you guys say that it won't be a big deal with a smaller needle?

            It's slower going in for sure with my 27G. I've got patience and am in no rush tho. Takes me about two minutes to inject 2ml. I"ve read any smaller than 27g can cause muscle damage from too fine of a stream, like a pressure washer affect. So that's why i went with that gauge

              the smaller the pin, the more pressure it takes to push the oil out and the faster the oil can shoot into the muscle, which can cause more trauma to the area being injected. Think of what happens with a garden hose when you use your thumb to cover part of the opening. The pressure is greater and the water shoots out with more force so with a 25 or 27g, you really need to take your time. 23g is pretty standard. As mentioned above, 1.5in for glutes is pretty standard. I use a 1in for glutes and can get away with it because I have no fat there. You just want to make sure you inject the oil DEEP in the muscle.

              You may already know this stuff, but I put this together for guys that are new to the process :

                I second that. I have been using 1.5" 23G and that has done well for me.
