I won’t lie, I chickened out the first day. I bet my heart rate was 160 when I did it. Quads. And I was surprised it didn’t hurt much. But I was nervous about hitting anywhere else so they whole cycle was done in the right quad. First time I hit a nerve I thought I’d screwed up bad

We are forced to practice on each other in medic school, that is way scarier, lmao.

What size needles do you guys use?
I've read that a lot of people use slin syringes to pin.
Does any of you guys use 25g x1" needles? (orange)

25g 1” is exactly what I use

All the time. What my script is for currently. I have also been trying the sub q slin rigs.

I remember I pulled the inch and half needle outta its sheath like Excalibur. Lol and.....I couldn’t....just nope. Next day I manned the F up after a bit of hazing from my buddies.

My first test shot I was nervous as helI had no one to give it to me. I told myself what the hell got to do it and pinned myself. After first time I found it wasn't that bad. Problem is I don't pin quickly. To me once I pierced the skin didn't bother me.

I use 1" long 23 ga needle for my test.
For IGF-1 Lr3 I use 1/2" 30 ga needle.

I thought of having to but bigger clothes and people notice I was on roids! Lol
I already had IV used some junk in early life so the pin was nothing

when I began using I was dating a nurse, but like a dumb ass I broke up w her leaving me to inject alone (kinda like the first time I had sex LOL) but she taught me well, IIRC I just swabed the area and punched that muther in, it wasnt bad at all. But that was in the mid 80's and I've done it hundreds of times now, not really my fav thing to do but like the result

You be fine, its normal to be nervous, once u do it a few times it becomes pretty easy. I am pretty fearless when it comes to injections anywhere but quads can be rough, so can delts. Calves can be either good (cuz easy access) or bad as in gushing bleeding, if they swell they look pretty cool
