that will show you how and where

i would suggest 1inch 25-23 gauge needle, and you dhoul have very little or no pain at all if your technique is good and you dont use to many cc's at a time.

Quad shots are the bomb! Easy to do and they can soak up allot of oil. Allthough I personaly find them to be a bit painfull when you first break the skin.

Spotinjections.com gives a pretty good idea where to shoot.

I've only tried quad injections once. I found that is was pretty painful going through the skin, so I pulled it out and injected by bicep.

I think I may have just hit a sensitive area, but quads are good if you are going to inject more than 1CC. The best part is that you can use 2 hands ti inject. Bi's and Delts can get pretty tricky with one hand.

I might sugest not trying a quad shot the night after squats-for me its a good way to bend a pin or be really tough.

Also note there are 3 distinct quad muscles you can shot for.See in anatomy chart.

I only do quad shots....The back always cramps up on me when I go for the glutes not to mention its a bitch to aspirate.

[swampwood]

I have to do Glutes blind and have trouble reachin to start with and yes that freakin back cramp-Mutha. Ever try holdin a mirror w/one hand while asprating?
I would try the Bi mus. like easto but I haven't grown a bicep yet.
