      Hey guys! so I finally decided to give synthol a try! 5pm yesterday! Everything was preped but I couldn't do it until 5:54pm! Believe it or not, poking myself with a 25G 1 1/2 needle was the hardest thing I've ever done! I injected all the way in! deep into the muscle! my wife was all like " C'mon don't be such a putz! I didn't marry a putz did I?" haha. It was hillarious! I aspirated and everything, so I did everything clean using alcohol and stuff!

      Now my bi's hurt like a *****! good thing I poked myself in the evening! 8 hours of sleep helped my bi's rest and I almost didn't feel most of the pain. Although I did wake up at 2am to drink some water and couln't even lift the frikin' pitcher!

      Anyways! I also my traps with a 25G 5/8 it's not that bad! No bruises or anything! so it means that I did it correctly right!?

      Well guys! Thanks for reading this and today I'm doing Tri's and Chest! Wish me luck...which needle should I use for tris? I'm thinking 25G 1 1/2 and 5/8 for chest? Well, thanks for everything!

      Jano!

      hmmmm...no wonder it takes a little bit of pushing to inject it in! Should I use 23ga then?

      23ga is what I use 25ga is like trying to breathe through a straw...
      many use 25ga for me it just takes to much pressure on plunger and time to push some thick solutions through.
      Some go pretty easy with 25 ga but most don't.
      try no to get to nervous when injecting and bend the syringe as many people tend to do when nervous..makes it a ***** to go through.

      I did this a few times only to release grip on syringe and have it straighten out and not tear up as much tissue.

      I know onsites can be nerve wrecking at times just be sure to be relaxed.
      I never used synthol just aas I bet synthol is a pretty thick solution.

      Best to do when relaxed and nobodys at home.

      Don't quote me on this, but I think it helps w/ the pain and lumpiness if you inject before a workout and then work the injected part hard. For example, I'm on triceps this month and inject ED. So, ED, I do at least 3 sets of tricep work. 2 of those days are not tricep days, so I only do 3 sets (the 3rd day I do more). But I like to use the heaviest weights possible. The trick is that I only do partial reps until my arms are warm and flexible enough to perform the full range. So you gotta do something that you can easily control the range.

      hmmm...that really helps! I injected triceps last night and did dips a couple of minutes later and it really seems to help! Too bad I didn't work out my biceps after poking them! I swear! I looked like a robot!

      Trap injections are the among the stupidest things one could do. Take an anatomy class and not only examine the neves of the upper back and neck (including their function) but also notice how high the pleural cavity sits in the rib cage. The risk for causing serious damage is HUGE. And we are not talking about getting a little spasm or abcess. We are talking DEATH or paralysis.

      Never had a problem with the shots. Been doing them all along. I know what you talk about, but there are ways of doing it right. It does take longer as oppose to just shooting in the ass or something.

      If you know what you're doing, then you will be fine. The best thing to do is having a poster that has a full anatomy of the body showing all muscle fibers and tendons

      My fucking biceps are on fire, right now! This is what always happens when I start a cycle with Prop, which is all of my cycles

      I get that whole slightly swollen, red blotchy shit going on, and they hurt like hell! Next poke will be just fine.
