I’ve read loads of different articles and posts about needle size selection.

Could someone help me.

I’m 90kg with a BF around 20%.

I have the following needles.
[FONT=&quot]Blue 23G X 1.25"[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Orange 25g x 1"[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Green 21g x 1.5"

The sites I will be injection IM injections in are Glutes, Thigh and Delt.

Ive been drawing my Test 300 using the 21g 1.5” and have injected once in my Glute using the blue 23g 1.25”.

I wanted to find out which needles I should be using for which site.

Thanks for your help in advance

Delt 23g- slin

Tricep/pec slin.

As far as inches depends on u and the size of us muscle group

1" is good for damn near every spot so order that next time. 20-21g to draw, 23-25 to pin.

If you're pinning some thick gear, consider the 23g. I recently have moved to 23g from 25g; the inject is smother and there's no additional stick pain.

I've been planning on moving to a 23 from the 25 because it seems to take forever. Sometimes takes me two minutes to get the plunger down with my current BD 25's. Thanks for posting Snakey Snoo.

I use a 23 1 inch for everything, glutes you may need a 1.25 or a 1.5, depends on how much youre packing back there.
I had used a 25G at first but it takes so long to inject when its test i switched to a larger bore.

A lot of it is personal preference too. Ive even used a 21g to inject with but thats me, larger size needles dont bother me at all.

Also depends on what you are injecting, test is super thick so a larger bore will make that easier, but ive heard things like mast are not as thick so a smaller one will do fine with that.
I only have exp with test.

Putting a test 300 oil into a 25g would be asking for TROUBLE
