Is a 5/16 pin to small?

[purelifting]

I am pinning wih a 5/16th pin into my calf with also pressing spreading my skin/slim fat. Is that enough to hit my muscle? I don't want to waste gear.

I would think it depends on your level of BF. If your pretty lean then that should be fine. But regardless of your bf your not getting it very deep into the muscle itself. You are probably getting it in the calf muscle but not very far into it. I would suggest a 1/2" or 5/8".

Seems a bit small to me bro. Why not grab something bigger

I am lean and I do not want to order pins until I do a bulk order again. It is EOD injections. adding VERY small dose of tren in. Also, I never did this... but can I pin a flexed muscle? it is a 31g. I have no problem pushing it through by the way.

31g 5/16th are slin pins... i doubt you're hitting muscle unless you're a very low bf

You need a little longer pin IMO... You wanna go IM not Sub-Q! At least 5/8...

1/2"min although ive heard of some guys doing forearm shots with pins that small i would recomend goin by your pharmacy for some quick pins if they ask just tell them its for injecting your dog with vitamens works for me 21-25 g 1 1/2 "quads or glutes to be sure

My pharms around me in florida WILL NOT sell me pins unless I have insulin on my record. Really annoyoing... right?

Thats wierd i live in panama city fl and can get them sux about your area though i know of some vet supply places that carry them you might have to buy some vet b12 with them but its worth a shot

Yes for IM 5/16 is to small, for Sq it should be just fine.
