    Great info. I started using the syringes with replaceable needles. A friend who uses insulin pointed out that sticking the needle through the rubber stopper dulls it a bit... more pain. So I extract with one (thicker) and inject with another (thinner). It's worked for me to reduce pain or discomfort. It might be just in my mind though. (And needles and syringes are stupid cheap.)

    After having reviewed and bought the insulin syringes that he has in this video it is evident that you CAN draw from the syringe with them. The syringes where you can change out needles does not work well drawing with a higher gauge. Also using a single unit syringe leaves almost 0 waste. I was having a lot of not necessarily waste but left over testosterone in the syringes where you can change them out. I Have been doing IM shallow into the delt and it works fine. I appreciate these great videos and their educational guidance.

    I was taught to inject air into the vial with the syringe. No problems drawing with small gauge needles. The insulin syringe I use has a stop that holds the plunger at the very end. So I pull the plunger all the way back and wait a minute. Syringe is filled with the 0.5 cc in about a minute.

    Appreciate the info. Just started TRT 2x a week and I do delt and glute. Rotate each week. Also do B12 3x a week. The shots have no pain, and the only issue is the anxiety right before it is injected. lol I do not like needles. But the right area of the glute is important. The wife hit a spot a little bit too high, and it burned like crazy. Do your research yall on how to find the right spot on the glute and shoulders!! I draw with 18 Gauge and inject with a 25.... works well. Thanks for the info on drawing with that smaller needle!! I may try it. The 25 gauge takes forever if I use it to draw, Ill try that pressurizing technique!! Thanks

    scared shitless doing any injections. I have just started back in July and was doing subq which is relatively incredibly easy and have not had any issues with it once I broke through being scared. I wanted to try out IM and have been watching this channel for a while. I used a 27g 5/8 needle. It was hard to draw from the vial with it and I followed the same procedure in the video. Injecting did not go as a fast as I thought but maybe I'm not used to applying pressure from that angle. Very little pain. I will be doing this and see if any difference from subq. Thank you for your free and informative channel.

    What brand of syringe are you using? I see from your demonstration little waste after injection. I currently use the method you provided earlier which leaves some air in the syringe to push all the oil out. This works well, but my current syringes leave too much oil after injections.

    People have been injecting subq with oil based esthers in the glutes without knots. Warming the oil up in hot water helps. You can also backload insuline needles. Also, pinning ed or eod doesnt spike your oestradial very much. Greets from Belgium

    Look guys what it boils down to, is your blood work, total and free. I've been injecting .5 cc weekly Sub Q after a hot shower and my bloodwork has always came back 650 to 700 ng, and it keeps my Estrogen around 30 to 35. I've been on TRT for 10 years, so I have tried Intramuscular also and SubQ keeps my Estrogen in check.

    I was relying on my wife who is a nurse and told me I couldn't self administer IM shots in my delts. Now I realized her concern. I have 29 gauge 1" needles this video show me i can still hit muscle tissue in my delt with the 1/2 inch needle. She was worried that I wasn't in the precise location and may damaged something. Also the information and visuals on Angles when administrating the various injections helped me as well.

    My doctor here in Texas prescribed me 18 gauge to pull test and a 25 gauge to inject in the upper quad hip area. 70 mg twice a week. It works fine but there's a bit of waste it seems. The 25 gauge is small and I can't feel it hardly at all. Cant imagine using a 29 gauge. my doctor said it's impossible to pull cypionate because of the oil base through a 25 gauge needle and here you are doing it with a 29 gauge LOL.. good stuff preciate the video by the way.

    Several studies have proven, that subcutaneous works as good as intramuscular. I do not get the point, why he is trying to prove something wrong, that has been proven right by studies and countless anecdotal evidence. Maybe he should include studies, that substantiate his thesis, otherwise for me that remains speculation and only his preference.
