So next cycle starting soon anyone who has ventured in the pec area for pinning could u give me some feed back, im interested in doin it seems like a extremely easy area to pin, but dont hear much from it, and could it handle 3cc at most, my fav areas are quads n glutes but gotta rotate. Not a fan of solo delts lmao ok enough ranting


Thanks in advance

Well I just pinned my left pec with a 20 gauge. Had about 5 cc's to pin and had some trouble pushing through my 25 gauges so I had to switch to the big guns cause I only got 1 cc into right quad with the 25. Then i pinned left pec.. I used a 1 and a half inch 20 G so i definitely didnt bury it. As you can imagine it is pretty nerve racking being over such a sensitive area so I recommend a 1 inch and to be careful and steady if its any longer. Pretty easy to aspirate in this spot but even though i did several times while pushing in the 2 cc's, a good bit of blood came out when I pulled it out, but no oil. Applied pressure and it stopped very quickly. Feels like it is in the muscle with no pip thus far 20 minutes later. If you are nervous about hitting too deep I recommend doing like I did and using you non-dominant hand, more specifically the thumb, to hold up your pec on the same side as that arm, to bunch up the muscle on that side. Not only does it thicken up the muscle on that side, it also ensures you that you have the muscle fully relaxed. Of course, you want to keep it that way the whole time. Hope this helps. -mass

IDK what your pushing that won't go through a 25, sounds odd. A 1.5" 20ga is what I use to draw, it's brutal to pin with. If you are in the 10-15 % bf range a slin is the way to go in the pecs. Rotation of sites and small gauges are the secret to prevent scar tissue.

I don't know about pecs handling 3cc's? I recently started hitting pecs and love it ... absolutely no pip even with Tren A. I have used a 30g 1/2" needle (which was very difficult to push Tren A thru ) and 25g 1" needle which was the best, just didn't sink it in all the way. I have only been pinning 1/2cc at a pop tho ... looks gnarly but its a great spot to hit IMO.

Idk man I use terumo from GPZ and switched the 25 G three times. It was OP test and deca, which I have pushed through slin pins literally over 50 times. Something about those 25 G's cause when I used that twenty it went in easily. I actually had no pain or trouble with the twenty it just bled a lil more

I even ran it under hot water beforehand.. It would barely even push through when it wasn't in tissue.
Still no pip from the 20 gauge though so cant say i regret it

My roommate gave me a ton of 29 1/2" Are those too small for pecs? My quads are getting a little worn out and Im looking for a new spot to pin. Also do any of you guys have a diagram or a write up on how to pin pecs. Theres a bunch of those medical pictures showing how to do glutes/quads/delts, but no pecs. Thanks !

I was using a 30g 1/2" just fine for pecs bro ... most people are fairly lean in that area so u should be just fine, just bury it .... flex your pecs and aim for the middle of the muscle ... roughly about an inch above the nipple or so ... easy money bro ;-)

I'd recommend other sites first before you get to pecs. Ventroglutes, delts?

DONE! Pecs was PAINLESS! I'm a fan of doing whats right in front of me like quads. That was awesome. Throwing that in the rotation!

Naw Im a pussy with glutes and delts for some reason. I mentally know whats going to "hurt" or not, even though I know it wont. Quads are super easy and I just needed a bump in confidence to do pecs. Simple. Im considering biceps next

I have had the same issue with the 25g 1.5" Terumo needles from GPZ. I have pushed AY's test through a 27g 1" needle with no trouble but it doesn't want to go through the 25g 1.5" needle. Out of 2.5ml I get down to the last.5 and it just seems to stop, doesn't matter: glutes, VG, delt.


A note on the chest, the note about pushing up on the muscle is good...I have trouble keeping the muscle relaxed and the one time I did it it bled real bad for me, I haven't done it since, but the PIP wasn't bad at all.

I pin pecs all the time. It is actually one of my favorite. I use 25g 1" pins. I am sure it can handle 3cc. The most I have ever done is 2.5cc.

No, even for a new spot it was pretty mild pip. Wouldn't even notice I pinned it the day before unless I flexed my chest....and that's with water based and oil based gear.
