Ha, I actually was only getting it in my left leg up until this week I got it in my right.
I asked about this on another forum. One person said something about bothering the IT band.

The Iliotibial band is in the center of the lateral side of your leg, I'd hope you guys aren't pinning there.

Yeah, so you shouldn't be causing any ITB problems imo. I'm not a doctor, just am reeeeeeeeeallly familiar with the ITB since my two knee surgeries and what a pain it was to get the ITB to relax. I still think it's from pinning too close to the knee with large quantities of oil. I've never done 3cc at once, but I can imagine there would be some angry muscle tissue.

i cant speak for the OP, but for me I can garuntee you Im no where close to the knee.
If anything im I would think to high up for me at times.

Weird. I've read that it's the oil migrating through the muscle fascia and it sometimes gets into the knee joint area. But if you're not pinning low, it's either the quantity of oil (3cc) or something else. I'm curious to know what else it could be.
you know, I hate to admit this (little embarrassing) but I never do delts.
when I was in my mid 20's I tried it for the first time and I dont know what I hit, but dear god it hurt. I never tried again. I Know I gotta get over this and try again.
Unfortunately I have not seen anything that gives me 100% piece of mind on how to do it right. Im sure ill just give it a shot again soon cause I know I need to use the site since Im never hitting my Biceps again.
I just did an injection and here are some pics on where i injected this time. Decided to go a little higher and to the right.

Let us know how the pip goes. That looks about right to me for where I pin my quads.

Yeah the first time i injected the oil room temp, and as quick as i could..... the last 2 times ive been running hot water over the syringe with the needle capped, and injecting slowly for 30-60 seconds... much less pip. Tough when my hands are shaking as its my first cycle and not used to injecting yet.
I want to try the glute but i only have 1" needles... Can i get away with using 1" in the glute?

The one thing i did do differently, was i rolled the syringe in between my hands for a minute to kind of warm it up. I did make sure to inject slower this time as well. I might try running it under hot water next time, good idea. thanks

If you have low bodyfat you can use 1" needles on glutes.
