A lot of people are using insulin needles too. 28 gauge, you could pin yourself just about anywhere too with those.
How's that, I thought TEST was best rendered IM (intramuscular)?

It is i.m. Its only a 1/2 cc or less depending on the dose, it will be plenty deep enough. You just have to inject in a leaner area like delts or quads. Definitely not glutes, lol. Test even works subq.
Wow, that is news to me, I'll have to look into that more, Thanks again for the helpful info, my goal is to be in better health... Not take too much and fix one problem while creating 3 new ones, ya know!
Yah I have read about this as well, seems much easier and some people swear by it where others are skeptical.
I cant post a link yet but go to the anti aging section here and theres a thread on page 2 regarding the subject. I also read it on another forum too. Very common.
ScottyDoc, I can't imagine it not working regardless. Obviously subq wont disperse as quickly with it being an oild but it would eventually be absorbed. However I would imagine there could be a chance for a knot in the area if a larger inject. Otherwise yeah a 1/2 or 5/8 will easily make it into the muscle when done in shoulders, triceps, probably quads too. Anywear that doesn't have a thick coating of fat and has muscle under it is not going to be a problem getting into the muscle where there is maybe a 1/4 tops of skin.
I am no expert but I think you should definitely increase your test gradually to avoid the system seeing a sudden influx of test way over the levels it has been at recently and tries to maintain homeostasis by converting it to estrogen. Of course you have PCT Rev Black to use if it became a problem. If you want to just make sure you prevent any issue I would think about taking 1 PCT Rev Black every other day as a preventative measure.
This one is actually better for your knees even though you can go a little heavier on it due to less friction it is safer for my joints so I use it.
Thanks Jeff!

I wouldnt subq for those reasons.
I totally agree with that. I still think you should start with 100mg's per week then have bloodwork done around 4-6 weeks later. Cant hurt.
Yeah it feels so much better. With 8 on each side on a regular sled i could get about 12 before. I am sure that came up some recently but I know I could not do over 9 plates per side on the sled ones. Heck even with 8 on each side and wearing my Tommy Kono's my knees truly felt like my knee cap was about to pop off and shoot across the room like a stray hockey puck.Those are good and fuggin deep, that's how I roll and I wish I hade that type to work with the sled style kinda sucks...
I am back to the old sled style as well, my old gym "LifeTime Fitness" had one like that and I totally prefer it over the sled style, but you deal with what ya got! Impressive lift my friend, definitely deep enough though! I might have to do a video of me doing some heavy leg presses sometime soon... just might have to try and "one-up" ya, LoL!!! So... 13 plates, is that all??? LoL
I value your opinion, but the MD who wrote me the script is certified in Anti-Aging Hormone replacement Therapy and that is his primary focus in his clinic and it was his suggestion to take 200mg/week and get my blood-work re-tested in 90 days / 3 months from the start. So I'm going to go with his advice for now!

13 plates that is just one heavier than my second warm up set.I definitely think with the sled you can take 2-2.5 plates off to get to about the same effort levels. You hit 16 plates and 2 25's for 12 on that sled and we will call it even.
I think that would be a pretty accurate carry over from that machine to the sled don't you?
I forgot you had the TRT doc to help you out. Also I imagine starting with 2 100mg shots will introduce it a little more slowly at first. I would wait a couple days to see if you notive any signs of extra conversion and then start the PCT Rev Black at 1 cap every other day or so. That way you can maybe have half the aromatase floating around that you would without it. You definitely don't want to dry out too much at first.
Oh yeah if I were a FINAFLEX Employee such as yourself I would run the 1-Andro at 800mg all the way through the first month then taper while adding in the Epi-V. That will give the lifting community a better comparison of 1-Andro and the other 1-Andro products out there that are being run at 800 mg as the sweet spot. Everything I have heard about 1-Andro is that 800-1000 MG is the sweet spot so I would like to see that run. With the DHB perhaps you could get the same results as a 1000mg run of some of the other products with only 880mg. That would be saying a lot.
Yes Sir that sounds about right for the 1-Andro, you know what Epi-V stim is like as well as the water that comes off with it so you decide the dose on the other but that sounds good to me. Al, if you get to 13 plates on each side you will be WAY heavier than mine. The sled you are using already makes things feel a lot heavier. If you end up doing 26 plates during this run for 12 reps going the same depth then I will make a youtube video of me kneeling to you. That would be like me doing 15 plates per side on this one. The sled one is definitely harder than this lever one. Not saying you won't be able to do it but if you can you deserve some homeage for the awesomeness that it would take to achieve that.
I also like that I can do a 1 leg press on this one if I want and that is almost impossible on a sled due to aligment issues.
Oh BELIEVE me, if, keyword IFI lose, I will make a HUGE production about kneeling before my MASTER, there will be no question as to what I'm doing, why I'm doing it and who I am kneeling before! I have No Dignity, LoL!
Same here no dignity and plenty of integrity which can make for some fun stuff like this. Anyone else wanna get in on the action. Nobody tell Punthra or Andres aka gohardorgohome. We won't have a chance...
Hmm if I am doing 18 total plate on the sled I wonder how much I could do on the machine he uses? Hmmm. Cant wait to see this.
Well Al and I discussed it because he said he doesn't go as deep as i do. I told him well if he does succeed at 13 plates with a good ROM but is still not as deep as mine the I would kneel but would challenge him back by trying it with a ROM mimicking his.So then, how deep is deep enough?

You know that is a good question. Some days it bothers me while other days it does not. When I first did the 18 plates it did so the next time I backed it down to 16. Last week I went back up and it didnt bother me. Of course I have been doing the squats prior to the leg press also.Well Al and I discussed it because he said he doesn't go as deep as i do.

You may destroy me tho, who knows. Question Jeff, does going really heavy on legs effect your hernia negatively?
No 18 plates total. Hell if I could do each side I would have legs like chris. Lol18 plates total or 18 plates each side? We are talking about me doing 13 plates each side so a total of 26 plates!!!

One above your post. A total of 18 plates for a total of 810 lbsJeff... You never answered? When you say 18 plates, do you mean 18 each side as in 36 total plates... as in 1,620 Lbs?
Shoot 18 plates is damn good on a sled. I am telling you if Al does the 26 I am just gonna have some fun with my homeage video to him.
Well I will make one solid PROMISE, I'm gonna sure give it my best attempt!!!
Mine too but it will be so damn impressive to watch and well worth a little public self humiliation to see. Then again would be worth it to see him kneel to me too. LMAO!!!

i think there is a little of that in all of us, lol.

I'll judge depth...
(psst... Al, I can be bought with Finaflex products)
