Injection Questions was created by AAS
Hey Guys, got 2 questions based on the Injection Protocols and Procedures article

1. "Once the bubbles are at the top of the syringe, gently push on the plunger to force the bubbles out of the syringe and back into the vial" - Wouldn't this push the gear back into the vial? Some tips here please, confused me

2. "Look at the thigh that will get the shot. In your mind, divide the thigh (the area between the knee and the hip) into three equal parts. The middle third is where the shot will go" - Is the divide vertical or horizontal? Also some tips here would be appreciated

Thanks

Howsit,

Never injected but my understanding is as follows..

1. U will push gently on the plunger to get the bubbles out, maybe take in some more so that you have room for error..

2. My understanding is horizontal. But not sure.

Anyway that's my idea of it, hopefully someone with more experience will respond.

1. Push the bubbles back into the vial, and then redraw more solution if required. You should only need to do this once.

2. Vertical. Divide your outer thigh muscle into three parts. One closest to your knee, one closest to your hip, and one in the middle, which is where you want to pin.

Is this better?



Just google "vastus lateralis injection site".

Yes, you could draw a bit more and then push it back with the bubble/s. A drop or two more ore less won't make a massive difference.

Thanks Eidolon, +1. So just to confirm, the injection must go straight in the middle of the outer quad muscle? Im starting on Monday with my cyp and dbol, so is this plan fine - 20mg dbol orally then pin 2mg cyp upon waking then 20mg dbol an hour before meal 3.

Cool man. Yes - middle of outer quad. The target area is about palm sized, so don't pin in exactly the same spot every second week, assuming you are going to stick to quads.

Good luck with the cycle.

I like to leave a little air pocket in the syringe. This forces the last bit of oil out of the syringe and into the injection site

I've had bubbles in the syringe before that I couldn't push out and had to empty the whole syringe and start form over. Any idea what causes this?

Sometimes there is lots of little bubbles everywhere in the solution. Especially if you shake the vial before you draw the oil. If you tap the syringe and the bubbles does not go to the top just squirt the oil back into vial and draw again. During the whole process the needle should be in the vial anyway so its no effort. If the bubbles comes with the 2nd product you draw into syringe you will just have to tap away on syringe. Bubble should go to top

@AAS is there a specific reason why you don't just hit the glute bud?

Just got off my clen yesterday. Clen + my first time inject would't have gone well, probably would've ended up injecting my calf or lower back . I train monday, tuesday, thurday, friday so I was thinking of moving my pin to saterday so im not numb in the gym, do you think this is a good idea or is it not that big of a deal

LMAO that's how I felt this morning. No Cyp is fine and you won't have any injection pain. Are you shooting weekly or bi weekly?

Nope - if youre lucky 5ml will go through.
Blood starts bubbeling as soon as the air hits it - wonderfull stuff. That prevents that an absolute pocket of air hits your heart. If that bubble is too big it doesnt get a chance to break down. I was told 5ml quite recently - in hospital.

Guys got another question another question about placement, ok so I injected closer to my hip than my knee slightly to the right of my right outer quad. I was just wondering how much does your injecting accuracy matter and is there room for error, like if I had to inject the edge of the outer quad rather than more central, would the gear be less effective?
