I need a little advice on pinning location rotation. I usually stick to shots in the ass but I feel like I need to rotate and start using a different spot. I am completely against using quads , every time I try I hit a nerve or something and it goes bad every time. So my question is where is the easiest spot to pin (other than the ass) that has as little nerves as possible( in your opinion) I have gotten some needle freight recently from pinning in the quad and hitting a nerve a couple times so now I feel like every time I take a shot I’m gonna hit a nerve. Or is it completely fine to use pin only in the ass. I take test and deca three times a week. Thank you fellas

That’s another issue I’m having. I’ve never had issues before but since hitting that nerve I second guess everything when it comes to pinning. I use 1-1/2” for my ass but what length for where ? 1/2” for delts? My sister who is a nurse tells me 1” is perfect for delts but man that seems long like I’ll hit a bone. I sound like a rookie but I’ve been doing this for years , never was concerned , hitting that nerve fucked me up. I super freaked out about it now. Like I’m gonna hit a nerve or go too deep and hit bone. I used to pin my pecs and biceps and quads like it was nothing. Now I’m scared as shit to try those places

1/2” to 5/8” is fine for delts unless you have a deep layer of fat for some reason. 1” is fine for glutes. Just inject slow and you shouldn’t have any issues with it not going into the muscle. Slin pins work great for delts.
Place index finger on bottom of shoulder bone. Inject 2-3 fingers down from that dead center of anterior delt.
I also use traps. Easy to hit with a slin pin. Aim for the middle, not the neck side of the muscle. If it’s a compound that gives PIP don’t pin the traps as it’ll give you a stiff neck for days.

Have someone pin you, like this:

Lats are a pretty pain free easy injection site as long as you can reach them comfortably
Try 27g pin ... delts, glutes, and vg are painless. I also do chest, bis, and tris. I hate quads, always seem to hit nerves and old scar tissue.

I really like pecs for .5ml and under with 1/2" 28 or 29 gauge
Nerves are everywhere.
You can pin in the Glutes of course. But scar tissue does build up...so rotating sites helps reduce the amount.
Personally, I rotate shoulders, glutes and quads. Using 1 inch 25 gauge. Which is pretty standard.
Just re-check you injection site online for where to place on the quads...and you can move it around some too. Maybe you need to move further up the leg? IDK.
Shoulders are fine with 1 inch needles. IMO you will have more trouble injecting too much oil in the shoulder. I can't exceed more then 2 ml.
Worst case, just do glutes and shoulders.
PPl do chest, calves, pecs. I just have heard problems with these areas. But I suppose some trial and error if you want to be brave? I am not that brave.
I rotate delts with glutes. Fuck quads, I've tried different oils and pins and heat/no heat and my quads swell up bad for 2-3 days. I tried 1/2" 27G for delts and one ended up with a decent knot on it for a couple days... probably unrelated or I did something pushing on the plunger like a gorilla. I just don't like trying to smash oil thru that small of a pin though so I just use 23G 1" for everything. Inject slow and rub it down a bit after and have very little PIP
I’m not even sure what gage I use. I think 23. Which now seems huge , maybe I need to go down in needle size and stop over thinking this. I cringe now thinking about going in quads
