Anything larger then a 21g is just pointless.. you're gonna be leaving big ass red injection marks all over yourself, I personally use a 23g and  the gear goes in just fine.

I've used 20x1 pinz & I had NO problems with site holes, nor leakage. But everyones different. These were used in my guads btw. I've been asked if they hurt? Not really cause I love pain

But thats me, next time ill be using 25x1 due to so many injections each week.

23g-25g should be all you ever need. If it feels tough and is slow going in, well, just push harder, it won't hurt anything. Just 2min ago I pined my sust and hcg, same syringe, into my delt. I used a 25g 1" pin and the whole process went by pretty quickly. Just stick bury, and push hard.

Like what Jr. said, I've own used 25x1 and yes it does take awhile to get it in there but hell when going into the leg, I'm already sitting down so I can wait.
Quick question: I shot in the morning 2 hours before gym time, can I work out the muscle group I just shot or should i wait a day?  8)

You should be able to work it without much problem if you wish to.  I find that the day after the shot I'm more sore.  I also don't pin the smaller muscle groups--basically just thighs and glutes.  Vastus medialis is working out really well---thanks to bravo for suggesting it.

pin the muslce group that your goin to work out that day about an hour before/// i.e. if you pin your quad hit legs an hour later.. this enables alot of blood flow into the quad to help disperse the test and cuts down on soreness due to injection...

this method works wonders for me

If I'm due for an injection I always inject the muscle I am about to train that day...actually helps with soreness. My advice, never ever inject a muscle that was just trained the day before. In my experience this can cause a very uncomfortable level of discomfort.

If you think a 22 is hard, I can't imagine you trying to use a 25G.

If your hands aren't strong enough to push the oil through a 22, are you sure you need to be doing AAS in the first place?

It's just a matter of grip strength, bro.     :-\

I agree so much with DIV here, maybe you just don't have a firm hold on the plunger, if you grip it properly it should be no problem.

I think you guys are all correct in my situation. The only time and site I have experienced difficulty is when i have tried to push 3mg in my delt left handed all uncoordinated and shit, and my left hand is all gimped up amyway from boxers fracture.... I guess I need to quit being a puss in shove that shit in..... i just thought initially ( like the gentleman said) that it was supposed to flow through like nothing.... thanks for feedback... j

I think first timers need to look at this website.

it works wonders in your mind..... you could inject in your big toe and it would disperse into the body the same way..... your body moves a quart of blood through your vascular system every 45 secons..... it doesnt care where you inject the chemical son.

Uh-huh.......very nice. 

Do you realize how ridiculous a statement that is?

I'm not even going to argue this.

the only time you really need a 20 or 19 gauge is when your pushing a water based product so you can get all the crystals through the needle but you shouldn't need anything bigger than a 23 to get oil based products through.
