opinions on least sore injection sites?

What part of the quad?


You could try the ventrogluteal, which is actually the hip area - there's a nice patch of muscle there that makes it a preference for intramuscular injections. It's supposed to be the safest and most comfortable.


You could also do your shoulder, but you'll still probably have an achy shoulder.


Another good spot is the vastus lateralis. If you divided your thigh into thirds, it's the middle section. You inject into the side of the muscle - still the muscle, but not right down on top.


Be careful if you go with glute, like I know many others do. There's a lot of research now days about nerve damage from people getting injections there (since it's so close to the sciatic nerve) - and that's from injections given by people that know what they're doing.


10 ibuprofen? :x

Try the other quad. Then immediately go to the gym and warm it up real good doing cardio, then do a few sets of squats, just your body weight is fine. This would prob work with the glutes too but I have test 450 that everyone complains about and after I started this, no problems at all.

If it has a high BA content cutting it with cottonseed oil (1:1) would help with the pain.

shooting just less amount would help also no? like half cc per shot compared to 1 cc at one time.

How much are you shooting at a time? What size pin?

From checking on other boards this seems to be a common thing for first timers I guess? Saw "virgin muscle" will hurt like a bitch sometimes the first time injecting into it. Guess maybe I just gotta go thru the motions? Not bein a bitch tho, shit fuckin hurts like a mofo-ate at least 10 ibuprofen in the last 24 hours. Wasn't bad first day, but 24 hrs after shot it just kept getting worse

So apparently my test I just started taking 2 days ago has a high BA content or something. My quad hurts so bad I'm in pain just walking around. Like almost walking with a damn limp pain.lol. Next shot tomorrow, now I don't know where to do next. Was gona go other quad, but then that'd really suck. Or glute, but then just sitting will be miserable. Anybody have this before and can shed some light on the situation? Is there anywhere like say delts that will be more tolerable or are all spots gonna feel the same?
