How Bad Are Quad Injections?

not bad at all. I use 23gauge and never really sore. The first few times it might be sore but not enough to deter working out. After that you will probably never be sore. You should rotate as many places as possible to avoid scar tissue build up. But every once in a while my left quad will feel sore to the touch but wont be sore to move, I dont know why. I must have hit a vein once on my right quad and it stung like a bitch but never got sore.

Use a 1" needle. That is plenty big. You will be able to run perfectly well. You just might have a little soreness the first couple of times. It won't be a big deal.
200mg Cyp - is that 1ml? If you're a runner why don't you inject delts? And my other suggestion is halve it and do it twice a week, 25g 3/4" delts: "What injection?" Seriously, zero pain, less T fluctuation . . .
I've injected quads once, pain for four days, sub-Q belly once, pain and swelling for five weeks, delts for every other time - zero pain, less time taken than cleaning my teeth. Had some blood dripping for the first time a week ago - five seconds of pressure and all done. Aside from that: perfect every time.

If all u have is 1.5in just dont put it in all the way.
Like others have said it may be sore and stiff the first few times cuz of virgin muscle. But after rhat it'll be fine. Quads are my favorite spot.

IMO quads are by far the easist! They're much easier to see and can use your dominant hand to inject either side unlike delts or glutes where you must change hands depending on with side you're injecting. 1ml is just no big deal. Once you've done it 2 or 3 times its practically as easy as an Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) injection.

Glutes, then Quads, then delts. That'd be a good rotation.
You don't have to go too deep. Get a 1" pin and go in half way if you must. Surely you have enough thigh mass to handle that..
Just do in tentatively in the mid part of your outer thigh.
check this out:
Figure 2-3. Location for thigh injection.

If you use the 1.5" needle only go in about 1". You should be able to go to your pharmacy and show them your prescription to get 1" needles. I bought a box of 100 for about $15.

25x1 works great for quads.Just be carefull not to strike OIL (hit a vein or nerve)
boy that hurts but its only happened to me once in the last 5 months. But with your quad. sit down and pinch up some skin and go for it.
