DELT INJECTIONS

[Punkrocker]

hey guys I'm upping my test and prefer adding the extra ml into my shoulder rather than doing 3cc in my glute. Never done a delt shot...seems pretty straight forward. Are there any major veins arteries or nerves to lookout for? Or just go straight in the center, aspirate and inject. Advice please and much appreciated

I go 3-fingers down from the top center of your shoulder. Should land you about right at the widest spot on your delt, maybe slightly above. Angle at 45 degrees toward the rear. So not straight in perpendicular.

And you'll get conflicting opinions, but I never aspirate. Hit a nerve every now and then, but I typically just leave the pin in and inject. More trouble pulling out and jabbing again to me.

I read that the 45 degree angle method was if your needle is 1 inch. I bought half inch needles specifically for delts. So with a half inch I would go straight right?

Oh, I don't know man. Yeah I always use 1"

Threw a pic on my first post, but if that's not the case for 1/2" then disregard.

I don't know why I'm so scared to do a delt injection lol. Been doing my glutes for 2 years now

Got 2 of them. Thanks bro!!

And after you do a delt, glutes will seem like a pain in the ass. So effortless

No kidding about the "pain in the ass" lol

Ok so when I get home from the gym, I'm gonna do a delt shot and then post here to assure you I survived.

I did the shot last night, luckily I had dma138 talking to me on gmail for moral support lol I'm still alive. Shot was ok, but I was fumbling the needle trying to aspirate. An awkward shot but it has been completed.
