I have been using test prop and injecting with 25g and 1” long needle. I only do my glutes a different side EOD. Sometimes I don’t even notice where I injected last. But some other times it’s very painful and bothers to walk.
I know you guys are going to say to use a longer ester or that switch injection places. But I really like both. I am starting to think is my technique so I want to know if there’s a way to make sure I am doing it right? And to minimize the PIP

A few things that I can think of:

To much pinning in the same spots; my glutes hated being hit more than 1 time a weeks. Try delts easy to reach and painless

Are you letting the alcohol dry enough? I find if I rush it, inserting the needle stings and the injection site is more sore than normal the following days

Glutes have a sweet spot, I’ll try to find the video that I saw where it’s mentioned

Do you shake a lot when pinning?

if the gear is made correctly it shouldnt hurt at all no matter how bad u stick yourself

I don’t agree with that. It’s not always the oil that causes pip. He might not even be going deep enough in the glute with 1inch. Most likely is, but it’s possible that some of the oil is being Injected outside of the muscle and that can cause “pip” due to the collecting of oil in one spot, makes it sore. There are a lot of things that could be causing it. Scar tissue could definitely be an issue as well. Maybe try delts for a bit.

You're stabbing yourself in the same site 3-4x per week. You need to rotate. Not just for the hit or miss PIP, but the scar tissue that you're quickly working on building up.

Completely agree. Rotating glutes for pinning two times a week isn’t bad, but that’s a lot of pins for two spots. Delts are super easy to throw in. I even hit chest for low volume pins

Are you warming up your vial first? I used to get PIP about 50% of the time. This was from prescribed Test so not due to bad gear. Then I started putting the vial in hot water for a few minutes before injecting. I never get PIP now.

Only time I've had PIP (once so far) was because I was shaking a lot. Definitely fucked it up on my part and got a lil mini bruise from it. Hit a nerve today but that pain subsided as soon as I pulled the needle. Did you read the ventrogluteal injection for dummies thread in the aas forum? Helped me a lot when twisting for glutes was a pain.

Not cool enough yet to post the direct link, but it's a sticky so easy to find.

What is this insanity? I'm not doubting you, but have never heard of this. Not amongst 'bros', not in a clinic. I guess we have a good muscle mass, not especially vascular.

It’s not too bad at all. I’ve pinned up to a ml in each delt.

Listen hear!!! PIp is part of injecting ourself’s with hormones..
And I don’t care how careful a brewer brews your shit.. there is always some PIP for people.

Fuck I have gotten it from my test cyp from the pharmacy..

Test P
Tren A
Test NE
And Tren NE
Are the worst compounds to inject.
Oh and winstrol in water based..

Has nothing to do with how deep you are going..
Or sites.
Anyway why the fuck are you pinning in your ass with a 1” needle..
Should be using 1-1/2. Don’t care how small your ass is..
1” for thighs and delts and pecs..

You want to feel some pip. Try pinning your triceps and then training right after..

12 years of pinning the only time I ever had pip is from shit gear not made correctly. Real pip isn’t from virgin muscle that’s just pain from poking and injecting a substance into u.
