Injecting air?

[sentry]

Does it matter if you inject some air into the muscle each time you inject? What are the risks. It would only be a tiny amount,not even a 1/20 of a ml.

its never a good practice to let any air into the muscle. I wouldn't freak about an amount that small. It takes around a full 3 cc's to become a fatal dose of Oxygen. I would also think it would have to be injected into a vein because the reason it is hazardous is that it messes with the heart when the air passes through. Still, make it a practice to go the extra 5 seconds to get all the air out.

That amount will not be detrimental to you at all.

I allways leave a very tiny airbubble in the syringe as to help force out all of the AAS.

how and why?

I don't get this. How do you get the air to the bottom of the syringe to help push out the gear? Air is less dense than gear so it rises to the top of the syringe. I guess if you inject in your quads then the needle points down and air moves to th back. And why would this help anyway. You should push all the air out until a small drop of oil drips down the needle. This lubes the needle to help insertion of the needle into your muscle. This is common practice in the medical profession.
A little air won't hurt you, but why do it if you don't have to?

I hold the syringe at a 30 degree angle and the air bubble rises to the top. When I depress the plunger the air bubble travels behind the Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) and forces out every bit of it. As far as lubing the needle...it hasnt in the past been more or less difficult either way.

thanks for clearing that up for me. Im going to starting igf on monday and i want to make sure i get my full dose without any being left in the syringe because of the price. So i thought a little air would would make sure evry bit is in my muscle.
thanks

A tiny bit of air into the muscle will in all likelyhood be of no consequence. There have been studies done, and the amount injected directly into a vein to be fatal ranged from 3cc to 60cc.
