3rd spot to pin...

Going to try a shorter ester on my next go around. I've only ever pinned the standard glutes/quads.

What's the easiest and safest 3rd option? I know people vary between delts, pecs and even lats. What do you guys like best?

Thanks.
 
Look up the ventroglutes! I love that location! Absolutely zero pain, and easy to see/reach. It's that tiny muscle that runs across your hip. It's all I use. I've yet to try pinning myself in the glutes, lol, shaky hands..

You can get deep enough into the delt with an insulin syringe?

Yessir, half inch needle length. I think 5/8" is better, but when I first started pinning, I wanted to go with the smallest needle possible lol. I use a 23g to draw and switch it to the 27g. I used to back load the slin pins, but I'm sure you can imagine how tiresome that got.
 
Interesting. I'm not a very big guy and I've been using 1 inch on my delta for fear of not going deep enough but perhaps that's overkill, idk. I did notice my last delt shot I did it real slow and left the needle in for 30 seconds afterwards and still a little oil came out when I withdrew it.

Insulin needles are the best seriously

Seems like a scary spot to pin, but I'll look into it.

I like the delts myself. Never had an issue and can use a 27g slin pin.

You can push the oil through that small of a pin?

Yeah...I used to fill it up with the 27g when I first started too..Took FOREVER, until I was made aware of the switching out of needles lol.
 
I’ve only pinned glutes so far, but when I decide to use shorter esters, I’ll probably use delts as well; so my vote goes to delts.

It's saying not to go too deep or risk hitting a nerve or bone. What pin length do you suggest for delt and pec? 1"?

1 inch and never had a problem. Only issue I had was I leave the syringe in after for about 30 seconds. One time, I just left it there without supporting it with my hand because I reached down to grab my band aid. When I pulled it out, I had some blood squirt out. Nothing bad, but I, freaked out.

Probably from the needle moving around a little.
