First Pin....Major Screw Up

Sat on the bed for about 10 min psyching myself up for it. Watched a couple bodybuilding videos and finally said fuck it, time to go. Grabbed the needle and into the thigh it went. Not going to lie, I was a huge pussy about it. Set it against the skin and looked away and started to push. Didn't even realize I'd gone through....ZERO pain. I was so anxious about it all during the injection after I finished and pulled it out I realized I forgot to aspirate! I freaked out for a second but it's been a good 10 min now and I haven't died or started coughing or going insane so I think I'm ok. Live and learn! You know I won't forget to do it next time. All I'm going to be thinking about on the next one is....aspirate, aspirate, aspirate, aspirate.
 
Yea the chances of you actually hitting a vein are extremely slim. I've never pulled back blood when aspirating, but all it takes is one time! Thats why it's worth the couple of seconds to do it but if you're hyped up and forget its not worth stressing about. Congrats on the start of your cycle though!
 
Yea that was me over the summer. Getting high on my way to the beach to dry people off haha I love me some south park!

Post up some stats so we know where your at going into this cycle bro!
 
I remember the first pin... I jammed the top of my thigh and used my thumb to simealtaneosly push the oil in like an adrenaline shot or something. It went good and then a few hours later the pain came and stayed, had me taking a dump with a straight leg for 10 days! Lol
 
I'm going to make my wife pin me lol I'm not afraid of needels just want someone to blame if I have a problem lol

That sounds eerily similar to my first shot shovel. Having to make up excuses as to why you are hopping around like cripple :p Honestly i barely aspirate anymore. When im injecting the needle moves around more than enough to be going in and out of veins that i wouldnt notice unless i kept asprirating throughout the injection.

Holy shit bro that sounds painful. I hold that thing as still as possible. Talk about some scar tissue.

I even put on a knee brace to help with my lie... Lol
 
LOL Shovel I can only imagine the pain.

I ended up using a 25g. Went in like butter but felt like it took an hour to empty the syringe. Thinking 23g next round. I bought both. Usin an 18g to pull it out of the vial. Can't imagine stickin myself with that monster LOL
 
Funny thing, I hit a vein this week going into the right thigh. I normally rotate between the right and left thigh and the last time prior to the vein hit I had to pin twice. The first time I hit a nerve and I had a twitch. Then the next time it went okay, no pain. The following week I did the exact same thing, hit the nerve again and then repined. This time I aspirated and saw an air bubble, but it seemed awfully easy to aspirate and looked down(one hand was blocking the bottom of the syringe) and the bottom of the needle was full of blood! Good thing I aspirated! So, next time make sure to.

Another reason I cant pin thighs anymore. Too many nerves and veins! It was good when I started because its so easy to reach and right infront of you, now I just stick to glutes and delts for the most part.

Shit Brother put it back in and aspirate LOL

Candy ass!

Now this is funny shit! ^^^



I had a budy that got me started on this shit. He pinned me for the first few shots. Then I got spooked by the crazy look in his eyes after stairing at my ass. so I started doing it my self!
 
I use to pin in the glutes for all my pins and then a guy told me to go into the thigh, but I am really thinking hard about going back after hitting the nerve twice in two pins.

Question, is 1" pin good for the shoulder too. I used 5/8" in the past, but I do have a little size on the delts, I think it would be okay, but want to get an opinion from more of a seasoned vet.

Either size will work fine. I hate those twitches in your thigh and it practically shoots the needle out. I had a buddy tell me the same thing happened to him and it broke the needle off. Luckily it wasnt buried and he pulled it out by hand. After that i stopped pinning thighs!

I aint doing it! 5/8 plenty for me.
 
I can totally relate to this entire thread. My first time I pulled a Shovel and just kind of jammed it in there. It was basically as if I had paced back and forth for ten minutes taking energy shots, listening to van halen, and just generally psyching myself up. Just kind of jammed it in there and pushed. Talk about PIP, lol. Good lord.
