just did my first injection of testosterone enthanate yesterday (200 mg). i looked at spot injections.com for the info on how to do it. after several tries in my right quad, i decided to do my left bicep because i kept drawing blood from my leg. i was sort of nervous, so i think i injected too quickly, now my left arm is fucking killing me. does that sound somewhat normal? ive heard that it is normal for pain to occur the next couple days after injection, but i had to actually skip the gym today because of it. if it persists, is there anything i can do? any recommendations on best injection spots?
 
Personally bro, for your first cycle i would go with your glutes. I've used them with no relatively no pain. I did a cycle a that ended about a month ago with Test E and Deca and i rotated between each glute and it never affected any day, including leg day including SQUATS. I never even shot my bi or tri or quad for that matter. I stick with two areas and never feel much pain (unless its winny) and those are my glutes and delts. Go with your glutes next time bro, you'll feel much better.
 
thanks for the advice, bro. i wanted to do the glutes, but i heard it was really hard to self inject, especially since its tough to see the aspiration. also, the pain im feeling is like a soreness like i had worked out too hard. sort of like i strained a muscle. and the tendon in my elbow is sore, too. i had forgotten to mention that earlier. is that normal? im hoping its just because i injected really quickly and the oil didnt have a chance to spread around and not that i hit the wrong thing.
 
If you hit a nerve you would most likely feel it! LOL For the right area to do glute injects go to www.howtodoinjections.com. I never have a problem with aspiration there and I've never drawn blood while aspirating. You also need to aspirate slow to make sure you dont collapse the vein because if you pull to fast the vaccum will just collapse it instead of drawing blood. As for elbow soreness, i cant say anything from first hand experience, but if you are feeling something that isnt in the injections site it is possible you hit a nerve and didnt feel it or hit some type of connective tissue that leads or is connected to an area in your elbow. I havent taken Anatomy and physiology in depth yet so im not sure what is actually connected there but im sure if you did a search on google you could find it. You definitly need to inject slow as well bro, my rule of thumb is a for every half cc i count to 5 before going pushing another 5 cc in and repeat untill its all in. You should also inject slow, massage the area to allow the oil to dissapate quicker, and if need to be hop in the shower and get in nice and hot and that should help. Anything else you need to know just ask bro. Stick around and post and learn, im know you'll love it here.

the site is good, thanks. i might try that when i inject again on sunday, but i only have 5/8 inch needle heads, so it might be too short. if so, ill just try the quad until i dont hit a vein. the only thing im concerned with at this point is that i dont get any infection. it just sucks with the soreness too because i did legs heavy on thursday so its like now i cant walk or use my left arm. dudes are a mess around here.
 
Ya dude, quad shots hurt like a mother. I dont do them unless everywhere else hurts.

like, your first injection of test EVER? if so, LMMFAO! :satan:

most shots, especially a test shot, in the bicep is gonna hurt. If not everytime, at least the first few times. Hell, anytime you shoot in an area you havent before its usually sore the first few time. You will get used to it.

i site injected into biceps on my last cutter and the first couple of shots hurt and made working out hard with the oil in them - but I eventually got used to it and couldnt even feel the shot/pain/oil anymore.
 
yeah it was my first shot ever. i have heard that soreness is common, but my arm is like starting to swell, and i cant really bend it or straighten it all the way out, let alone do a curl or lock out with any weight. i dont think i have a low tolerance for pain before either, ive broken things and torn ligaments and shit in sports. i think when i injected i did it too fast and it may have absessed. thanks for the reassurance though, like yesterday i really thought i fucked something up.
 
i also agree the glutes are the way to go.

i just put my bro on a cycle,and i monitor him all the time and even shoot him...glutes are painless.

in the quad he was complaining like a little bitch...kinda like i was when i was on cycle.

;)

just my 2cc's

I'm so sorry, I had to laugh a bit when I read all this. We feel for you, really. The BA in the test e is what is making you sore. It will happen anywhere you do it for a first timer like yourself. My first time was in the glute and I couldn't lay on one side in bed that night.

Don't worry, the pain and swelling will go down after a couple of days, and you'll be just fine.
 
shit dude all I ever inject the gear anymore is in the glutes-forget every place else...will spot inject IGF-1 but that's it
