How do I perform my injections?

Many of you are hesitant about the transition between oral and injectable treatments because of a recurring question.

«"How do I give myself the injection?"»

Through this short article, we will try to help you get through this stage with the help of a short tutorial.

Intramuscular injection

Intramuscular injection (IM injection) is the injection method used for anabolic steroidss.

It is also possible to use this injection method for products such as growth hormone (HGH) and/or some peptides (mainly IGF-1 and its variants) but it is much rarer and linked to specific uses.

Let's get back to what interests us, intramuscular injections of anabolic steroids.

Before you begin, you should know that products from the same family can mix in the syringe.

Oily substances with oily substances (Sustanon, Trenbolone, Decaf Durabolin, etc.)

Aqueous agents with aqueous agents (Winstrol, testosterone suspension)

You will need 3cc or 5cc syringes. Choose a size larger than the amount you intend to inject. If you are injecting 4ml, use 5ml syringes.

Pharmacists are obliged to sell you syringes if you ask for them, and they don't have to know why, it's for your personal use.

For needles, 21G or 23G are the most commonly used sizes.

40*0.7 for the glutes.

5*0.6 for the thighs.

15*0.6 for shoulders, calves, biceps, triceps, pectorals.

 

Or to sting?

The best place to inject yourself with most products is the buttock!

The safe zone is the upper outer quadrant of the buttock. The sciatic nerve passes through the other quadrants.
But doing it alone is an acrobatic feat.

Or, at the tip of your biceps, if you have one; otherwise, move along. Try to avoid veins, though.

 

For the triceps, there's no problem if you stay in the upper, fleshy part, whether it's the lateral or medial triceps. I find it painful; don't go near the tendons.

The advantage of doing it in the trapezius muscles is that it's not painful.

 

In the shoulder, it's more delicate, aim for the middle of the middle deltoid.

In the thigh, it is in the lower third of the vastus lateralis that you can insert the needle.

 

It hurts quite a bit in the calves, but it's often essential when you're not genetically blessed with good calves.

 

In the latissimus dorsi, on the outer edge. At the level of the lower pectorals.

Injection preparation

You will begin by washing your hands properly. Then, wipe the rubber seal of the bottle containing your product with a cotton ball soaked in alcohol.

Injecting ¼ CC of air into a multi-use bottle makes it easier to fill the syringe by suction effect.

Do not tap the tip of your needle against the bottom of the bulb, you will blunt it and it will hurt a little more when you push it in.

Do not touch anything with your needle. If this happens, change it.

Tap the syringe with your finger to expel any air until a little liquid comes out of the needle. Do not wipe away this liquid; it lubricates the needle and helps it penetrate the skin more easily.

Clean the injection area with a cotton ball soaked in alcohol and relax your muscle, otherwise the needle will not go in, may come out or hurt you.

Quickly pierce the layers of skin (that's where it stings) then push the needle all the way into the muscle.

Pull the plunger a little. If blood comes up, you're in a vein; remove everything, change the needle, and start again.

When injecting, proceed slowly, allow the product to diffuse, and maintain steady pressure on the plunger. Most products are oily, so infection cannot occur too quickly; the needle diameter does not allow for this.
Once the entire injection is complete, remove the syringe in one swift motion (it doesn't hurt), and wipe the area again with alcohol. Make a few movements and massage the area to help the product spread.

 

 

Subcutaneous injections

 

Subcutaneous injections are used for injections of Peptides, Insulin HGH and EPO.

Some have used this type of injection for testosterone, but it is not the most suitable for the absorption of the product by the tissues.

We therefore advise you to use subcutaneous (SC) injections only for peptides, hgh and epo.

You will begin by washing your hands properly. Then, wipe the rubber stopper of the bottle containing your product and the injection site with a cotton ball soaked in alcohol.

 

There are 4 SC injection zones.

 

• Outer part of the arms
• Abdomen (our preference)
• Anterior part of the thighs
• Upper outer part of the buttocks

Once you have chosen and disinfected your injection site, pinch the skin between your thumb and forefinger.

Insert the needle at a 45° or 90° angle depending on the thickness of the skin tissue, with a quick, precise and firm movement.

 

Do not loosen the skin as loosening the tissues could cause the needle to enter a muscle.

Pull back the plunger to check for blood reflux. If there is blood reflux, remove the needle and prepare a new syringe.

Inject the product slowly and then remove the needle with a quick and painless movement.

You see, it's not that complicated
