Shooting the glutes is a pain in the ass, no pun intended. First of all, unless you're very limber, which I'm not, you can't see what you're doing. Second, for me anyway, it's almost impossible to aspirate for blood, which is extremely important. I just shoot my quads. I don't have huge quads, but they're big enough to move injection sites around thus no scarring. Biggest benefit is that everything is in front of you and you can see what you're doing. BB

First you need to flex the glutes to see the largest bulk of the muscle. Make sure you're in the upper outer quadrant of the muscle mass. I use a 1" or 1 1/2" pin. Watch in amirror and make sure that the pin is straight. It slips right in. As long as you dont jostle the needle around too much you have the option of going form a dart hold to the standard needle hole to aspirate. Just inject slowly and then pull the needle out straight. Apply pressure to the area for a few seconds to stop some of the bleeding. Watching in a mirror really helps. The quads are great but depending on how many times aweek you shoot you begin to run out of spots.

Yeah, I'm with Muscledoc. This is my first cycle and have shot 5 times now rotating glutes. I look in the mirror, pop it in about half way and push it in the rest. Using also a 1 1/2" pin. Then I switch hand positions to aspirate without a problem holding the pin with one and aspirating with the other. I am 6 foot, 230lbs so not that limber either.

Brannie !!!!!!!! Good to see ya here again, Bro, I use the glutes when I get really sore quads from excessive shots ED. I alternate them and use a full length mirror. I dont aspirate ever there, some times i hit a vein but no big deal, usually it goes well as long as I hit it up high and toward the outside. The lower you hit, the more veins seem to be there. Try that.

BRANNIE, whatever you do, DO NOT hit your cyatic nerve, bro. You'll be clinging to the ceiling with your fingers jammed into it. OUCH. Hit your delts and quads, bro. Safer anyway. You're going to stick something in yourself without being able to see where you're injecting? Wow.
