Need help....crazy PIP today

[baseball40]

Guys- In Wk 5 and I'm experiencing PIP for the 1st time and its crazy. Did the pin last night, having issues walking today. Need to be able to work tomorrow and not behind a desk, athletic stuff related. Anyone have any remedies besides 'suck it up' that I can do tonight and tomorrow?

Massage, heat, Ibuprofen, call in sick? lol

Take some tylenol or something. I love pip. I am addicted to pinning.

Thanks guys, will follow ur suggestions. Unfortunately, no 'calling in sick' in what I do. I'd have to have a legit injury in order to get out. Luckily, I'm just hanging out for most of tomorrow until the late afternoon/early evening. So, should be able follow the instructions pretty easily. Thanks!

Do you heat your gear? Also do you pin with the same pin you draw with? Both of these have helped me tremendously

Nah, don't heat it and switch the needles, one to pin and one to inject.

I use the same needle to draw and inject. Never had a problem with it. I should probably switch needles though

Try this. Use a 18 g to draw and a 25 ga to shoot. After I draw it I put the cap back on the needle and run some hot water on it for a minute heating up the oils. This helps it absorb into the muscle better with out creating a picket of oil. Trust me on this one, it works!

I may have to try the water idea, thanks.

I personally use a blow torch, works well... lol I inject hot lava mayne!

Ok, you got a chuckle out of me haha. Mostly because I can picture these two kids from the gym screaming that as they fry their bodies using scalding oil rofl.

OP: Hot shower, ibuprofen and hydrate. Then get a good night's sleep.

As the aroma of freshly fried gluteus maximus fills the air... lol

These PIP posts never used to happen on "the boards" prior to the proliferation of UGLs. Are all UGLs bad? No. But the correlation is tough to ignore. People never really had these problems with real pharma gear...even shit made for animals.

It's sad that the existing laws in North America (in the US specifically) make it so that we as fitness enthusiasts are now less than animals.
