5/8" deep enough for delts?

[steel701]

Is a 5/8" 25G needle sufficient for injecting in the delts. I'm 6'2" 235lbs. and very lean. I've been going in the delts with Aratest2500 and I haven't noticed any swelling yet (I read somewhere that you may notice swelling if you do not go deep enough into the muscle tissue).

By the way, I've been shooting EQ in my quads with the 1" needle. My quads happen to be really huge compared to the rest of my body so I wanted to also make sure that a 1.5" may be suitable for the quads?

Any suggestions?

5/8" 25g are fine for the delts.

1" should be sufficient for the quads.

Why are you shooting different compounds into different parts of your body?

size of your quads isnt important body fat is . as long as the oil is going into muscle and not in the fat under the skin the needle is long enough . the same goes for delts

I do 2cc's (200mg/cc) of the EQ and 1cc Aratest (I do 2 1cc shots of Aratest a week so I can maximize the effectiveness of the 50mg of propionate in each shot). I'd rather do the 2cc's of EQ all at once in the quad and leave the 1cc shot for the delts. I haven't even bothered doing glute injections because it's a pain in the ass to twist around and aspirate sometimes. When I do a tren cycle, I'll have no choice but to include glutes because of the frequent injections.

how long or how difficult is it to get oil through? specifically grapeseed. it took what it seemed like for ever for me to get prop through with cotton seed and not warmed. and that was 23g needle too.

Pretty much long enough, I bottom it out and push a bit, and still I lose some oil much of the time.

I can push oil through a 27g but they only come in .5" so I use a 25g 5/8" and it pushes just fine, most gear I've used I'd say would be cottonseed suspended.

then i guess 25s arrnt that bad

damn i used to use those on my glutes before i realized that 21g is a pretty big pin to shoot with.

I prefer going an inch into my delts, and I'm not as big as you. I've used 5/8 but it seemed to result in more soreness. In any event, if you're using the 5/8" pins with no problems, then it ain't broke, so there is no need to fix it, ya know?
