But painless doesn't equate to non damage in the area being injected. I have a very open relationship with my doctor regarding anabolics and training, etc... I know if I told him that I did 5+ ml injections he would beat me over the head with his stethoscope.
I think youre an intelligent individual so I am a bit shocked you would do so much potential scarring on your body.
Hope you don't have a day of regret bro.
okay, this is gonna be long...
i honestly i believe oil volume has absolutely zero to do with scarring...
think about it... its not like oil is a solid substance that spreads your muscle fibers from the inside causing damage.
oil disperses in between muscle fibers and strings... i know if i shoot 5ml that the oil is gonna disperse throughout 5-10 inches from the injected spot...
imo scarring is about
-
needle size (i shoot with 25G max and im DEAD SET that people shooting with 23G or bigger needles WILL regret that)
-
number of injections / frequency (dont shoot same area too often)
-
gear quality (youll scar up like crazy if you shoot high concentration gear often)
additionally doctors USUALLY have zero clue about bodybuilders...
its medical practise not to inject more than ONE ml into delts etc too.. docs are told 1ml is too much for a deltoid to hold LOL.
for normal individuals with zero muscle mass that might hold true, but i can easily put 10 mls into one delt. done that before...
also think about the crazy synthol protocols... i know some guys that put over 50mls per week into each delt... for weeks on end...
they get scar tissue / inflammation buildup after a few weeks but if you stop it goes back down...
you can do A LOT more to your body than youd actually think
i know from experience
story time...back in the day i cut down on oil volume in favor of high concentration gear because i had the same thinking. i thought 5ml low concentrated gear would probably cause more damage than 2ml high concentrated gear... i got abscesses regularly in my delts and was limping half the time because of PIP in quads and glutes...
i had to drain abscesses from my delts a couple times because i shot 2mls of test400/npp200 or whatever the fuck inside of there...
inject the same spot a week later and boom there you had an abscess...
i once drained 30ml of pus from my delt because i injected 2mls of high concentration gear there with just 4 days in between.it took 2 or 3 weeks, day by day my delt got bigger and bigger and painful
you wouldnt believe how much SHIT came out of there... at one point i had 3 needles stuck in my delt and was squeezing the ooze out of there like greg valentino.
from just 2x2mls of high concentrated gear...fuck test 400,
fuck ANYTHING above 200mg/ml
and fuck every short ester over 70-80mg/ml
nowadays i can put 5 or 6mls of low concentration gear into the same delt 2 or even 3 times a week and NEVER have a reaction like that...
i use test E at 200mg/ml max
npp 100mg/ml max
tren E 150mg/ml max
tren ace 80mg/ml max
or even dilute the gear further...
i sometimes shoot 30 or 40 mls a week for an amount of gear that i would get with 7-8mls a week back in the day...
and now im perfectly fine, while
i was completely miserable years ago from the retarded gear concentrations...you can shoot A TON of oil into your body. what causes damage is high concentrated gear and solvents, not the oil imo.
