Injections

[bigmikecox]

Am I the only one that HATES taking injections?  I read some of the posts and some guys are doing shots EOD or ED.  I've been able to do shots EOD for at most, 3-4 weeks then get tired of poking and I get scar tissue build up real bad.

Yeah it gets old. You need to rotate injection sites a lot to avoid scar tissue build up.

im on year round and i never do less than three shots a wk, year round. i find everything still going smooth. only one infection which i drained myself from using stealth (NEVER AGAIN LOL) AND really no scar tissue that i know of, everything still is good. i like to rotate ass, delts, and triceps

It can suck sometimes, especially when I'm doing test, tren, igf, gh, and slin.  Too many fucking pins in one day

[muscle19]

i know how you feel   i use slin, hcg so forth so the pins can be alot but i guess im so damn used to it. just try not to think of it or itll bother you more lol

Why does every very big and cut guy in my gym all have the same birthmark in the side delt?

shit, i keep is simple... 500 test and 300 deca, all in one syryinge, just one 3 cc injection per week.

i do not believe the bull about steady state levels,,,,  test E has a long half life, so weekly injections is just fine.  most docs give 200 every other or every third week, and there are not big fluctuations. 

also, if there were fluctuations, i do not care, much easier for me, just to do my injection, one time, once a week.

That's not really a logical way of looking at it.  We aren't using testosterone in it's prescription sense, we're using it to grow and the most optimal way doing that is keeping your levels as high as possible which would mean injecting more often than someone who's using it for replacement purposes.

Some guys on another board were saying the same about insulin use, how diabetics don't need a lot of carbs to keep blood sugar levels stable.  Well that's fine, but we aren't using insulin to keep our blood sugar stable, we're using it to grow and using it like diabetics use it is not using it optimally for our purposes.

Everyone's different. You, sir, are a lucky bastard. If I just pin once a week or even twice, I get bloated and my nipples drop to the ground. If I pin every other day I don't have the slightest puffiness in my nipples and I'm tighter than a nun's see-you-next-tuesday. It stinks.

Pinning lots does get old. I allot some time in the evening to pin. The only time when I get really pissed off is when I happen to fall asleep before my normal bed time and having to wash up and pin while I'm half asleep. FUCK!! Sometimes I pass out on the couch drinking a protein shake and it's hard enough to get up, piss and brush my teeth. But to PIN is just fuccckinnng annoying!!!

I thankfully can pin pretty quickly and mindlessly though. Sometimes my nerves occasionally get worked up and I almost fear injecting like it was the first time, other times I just put some tunes on the computer, pull out my lovely stash and pin. Multiple injections is pretty damn annoying though.

Look at it this way if your gear is thin enough you could use 25g 5/8 pin just about anywhere you want 1/2 cc in each location been doing it this way for quite some time with good result little scar tissue.

i know, i keep my use on the down low.  my gf does not know, and if she did, she would be out the door (long story)...so keeping it a secret has made me just do it once a week, hard enough to spend 20 mins injecting once a week, let alone, a few times a week.

If you are on HRT, why would it be a problem with your girl?  Just tell her why you're on it and any sensible woman would understand that.  I've told several of my girlfriends and none of them ever had issues with it, they were very understanding in fact.

Yup. No shame there. Steroids are steroids. If they're doctor prescribed and the cycles are monitored, people are pretty quick to drop the steroid stigma and taboo. Just tell her that you're not taking supraphysiological levels of the sauce and you should be in the clear. If she gets all up in your balls about you growing really quick or whatever, just tell you that you train hard, might have taken a generous dose here and there and that's it. You can't really argue with that. It's either that, or have an identical set of hormones as hers.

It's all about the way you position it. You can come out and say you're fuckin' juicing on some mad crank and want to punch your grandmother in the jaw, or you can just explain that you're taking a bit of test to get your hormones where they need to be. And you can elaborate on how you're doing so in an educated, respectful and legal manner (or whatever your situation may be). Best of luck. I think that honesty is key, but if I just met a new girl I wouldn't whip out the alcohol swabs, syringes and barrels and make her think I'm going to rape her and have a big rager. Plus you don't want the wrong people knowing....

How come it takes you 20 minutes for one injection?

[muscle19]

this sounds bad but i agree with the above statement, i got married and havent told my wife i juice. I shoot three or more times a wk plus slin and hcg and all them goodies lol  i know i should say something but she always threatens that if i do then she is gonzo but she is japanese so i doubt it i shoot in the a.m. when she is sleeping so no problems

[theworm]

its about protecting myself.  lets say we break up, then she goes around telling everyone i use steroids, that i am an evil monster,, etc etc.  shit, its like saying "why don;t you tell your girl you jack off, its normal."  I do not care, somethings should be kept personal.  in my case, my extra test usage..... 


20 mins for an injection becuase i am very sterile, then must hide my shit like batman.  lol

[250goal]

If you can't confide in your woman, get rid of her and find one you can. 

As for shooting, no one likes it I'm sure, just like no one likes to diet, but you do what you've got to do.

simply wrong. read on esters and half life. you will see how wrong you are.

[250goal]

Weekly shots ARE NOT FINE unless you want unlevel blood levels.  EOD shots are the way to go.

[theworm]

i still do not think its make or break.  the half like of test E is 10.5 days, so in a 15 week cycle, i do not think biweekly injections really matter that much.

shit i did 300 test 300 deca....no sides and great gains on weekly injections.

I suppose it's wrong (I'm personally against once a week shots) but if it's working for him then he should continue.

Never really bothered me, the pain reminds me i'm still alive!
