1.5" too big for delts?

[bigtimechief]

I'm using 23G 1.5 for my thighs? Go all the way in with the same for my delts? Maybe just go in a inch? What do you guys think?

 

[Austinite]

Well, everyone is different. But generally, 1 inch is plenty for delts.

I have a tendency to push the needle in when injecting. Worst case, is 1.5 too far? I have fairly big shoulders, but I'm not an expert on the anatomy and/or size.

Worst case if there's not enough meat there, you would hit bone. No big deal, just feels funny. Back off and inject.

chest, delts, quad

What is your BF like? I have low BF and use slin pins on my bi's, tri's, trap's, and delta. I use 1.5 for my flutes, and use 1 in for everything else.

Last time i checked i was at 16%, but i've leaned out a bit more. Got the 4 pack rocking, lol. Anyhow, i've always wondered about the slin pins. I've got a load of em.' What do you think? Lean enough for the slin? I'd say i'm probably at 15%

I'm sure you know this, but if you wanted to, you could always get 1" needles as they're interchangeable with the barrel.

I would use them up then bro. Just takes like 3-4 times as long to draw. I just draw them up for the week all at once. But stick to the places i said, cause these are usually lower body fat area's. I would not use them for quads, lats, or glutes though.

 

[bigtimechief]

Yeah i draw with an 18G switch to 23G to pin. I guess i never planned on pinning delts, but the idea grew on me. Maybe i'll just order some more. Heck, they're cheap anyways. Thanks guys.

Anytime man. And way less painful. But the pain never bugged me!!! I love to pinn, i use 22g needles for just about everything. I paid like 11 bucks for 100 slin pins at hyvee.

1 inch should be sufficient for everything.except glutes bro. 1.5 will work anywhere though just dont go all the way in

 

[bigtimechief]

I'll probably order 1" from RUI. Rui is quick too.
