Where would be the #1 injection site?

HEINEKENBEERBOY · 07-03-2009, 02:14 PM

My favorite injection site would be the thigh but everyone has there own favorite site.

never done it on the ass cheek.

What do you guy's think in your opinion is the best site for injection...?

**Freak** · 07-03-2009, 02:18 PM

Vastus lateralis.

Depends what body part i'm training i try to shoot in the same area to maximise recovery, I'd have to say delts for simplicity.

**Medic08** · 07-03-2009, 11:35 PM

Glute, and then delt. I am too scared to do my thigh,lol.

**Freak** · 07-04-2009, 01:14 AM

Doing your glute but not VL is totally weird and delts aren't meant for anything over 0.5ml

I've always heard 1 ml. And its not weird, just a personal prefrence really.

**Freak** · 07-04-2009, 01:22 AM

If you are comfortable with it that's all that counts but there are more nerves back there.

**Medic08** · 07-04-2009, 01:23 AM

It goes in like butter. I rarely even felt it when I did my Glutes. Same with my delts.

**Freak** · 07-04-2009, 01:25 AM

For most IM's it is 1ml but imo I would really stick to 0.5ml/each delt for best absorption. Watch out for brachial artery/radial nerve in delt injection too.

leepriestanator · 07-04-2009, 03:23 AM

srry for the noob question but does it matter were u inject??

**Zack** · 07-04-2009, 03:47 AM

The dude who wrote Anabolic Pharmacology (which by the way is the worst book about gear I've ever seen IMO) and I got in a fight over on Anabolic Minds (oooo yea I said it...) about where certain things get absorbed faster and the best and he brought up some bs study that he probably got off of google or something saying that the delt absorbs faster than glutes or the other way around. I can't remember cuz I don't really respect that guy in the least and don't care for what he says.

But all in all you can pin wherever you want really (excluding certain areas of course just out of pure common sense) be it chest, bi's, tri's, vastus medialis, vastus lateralis, glutes, lats, etc. It's all personal preference. But typically people go for the easiest and most fleshy parts of the body... i.e. the legs, tush, and delts. Zomb used to pin chest a lot

huuuge · 07-04-2009, 04:20 AM

I cant get my head around stabbing something in my butt lol. My thigh is a piece os p1ss!! I just sit on the floor with my legs out in front of me, see exactly where I wann pin, and throw the syringe at it like a dart - by that I mean very slowly and carefully put the needle close to my thigh, take a few deep breaths and ease it in nice and slow!! I'm such a woos!! hahahaha

**Zack** · 07-04-2009, 04:26 AM

haha not everybody can pin like Vincent Vega in Pulp Fiction

**Zack** · 07-04-2009, 04:26 AM

man i hope that one works lol

**Freak** · 07-04-2009, 04:38 AM

Dart is the best way to go. Slow is all wrong man.

To answer your question.. the reason it matters is because of arteries and nerves (two things you want to avoid). Delts can't handle a lot and VL and glutes can handle more volume but with glutes you are at an increased risk of hitting a nerve or artery because your view is not the best. Chest, tri's, etc.. is absolutely irresponsible.

huuuge · 07-04-2009, 06:21 AM

I wish I could could do it like a dart, but i'm too much of a pu$$y!! lol

I'll try it next time

Hahha yea I remeber that scene. I remeber watching it after I became a paramedic and just shaking my head. I assuming what they were giving was narcan(they were never specified). Anyways narcan is an opiate antagonist so it reverses the effects of opiates, but you do not do a myocardial injection! It is as simple as pusing it iv. I know, I know it's a movie so it's got to be all exciting. The same thing with the movie the rock when he injects it into his heart, LOL. In an exposure atropne and 2pam chloride is meant for im injection. Damnt being a medic has ruined movies! Hahaha.

Edit: nevermind I watched it and he said adrenaline which is epinephrine. You deffiantly do not give that unless they are in cardiac arrest. That would actually kill her. Man I need to quit analyzing stuff, LOL.

Freak hit it on the head with the glute injects !! BE CAREFUL cuz im telln you RIGHT NOW you hit your nerve...your going down lol !!

Best way i found to pin your glute is take your thumb and place it above your crack , xtend your pinky fingerto the side of you ass cheek and go down from there . You have a 3inch window there thats good.

Also i have said this before but some guys werent here to hear it ....IF you can put your needles in the freezer the day b4 . NOT THE SYRINGE but the needle . It kinda acts as a "numb n" agent when you pin . The needle is so cold that it basically nubs the area and you get far less pain imo . I have friends tha i have doing this and they agree completely

**Medic08** · 07-04-2009, 01:42 PM

I put my thumb on top of my iliac crest and swing my hand back to my glute and where my pinky lands is my site of Injectin.

**Freak** · 07-04-2009, 05:46 PM

If you do it right it doesn't hurt. Dart like motion. It's when you go slow that you **** yourself.

huuuge · 07-04-2009, 07:08 PM

I hate doing it slowly cause every now and then it feels like I go thru a nerve or something that makes mu leg twitch like fcuk! It's funny to watch but not so funny when your pinning cause i'm worried of the needle breaking. I just cant get my head round stabbing myself.

HEINEKENBEERBOY · 07-06-2009, 08:55 PM
