tricep injections
On the diagram on this website: http://www.exrx.net/Muscles/TricepsBrachii.html what muscles should I be hitting, I had a hard time understanding from the description in Big A's post. I think it is #1 and #3 but I just want to make sure, thanks.

Yes, 1 and 3.
2 only if you are lacking badly.

Should I be scared of the #1 and #3 sites? I hear that nerves are in the area. I've done #2 with no problems.

How does one avoid nerves in #1 and #3??

1 and 3 are much easier and painless than 2.

I've gotten good results out of site injection to spot one to develop and enhance thickness. Site 3 did little, although hard to reach the posterior delt gets good results too. Am currently doing some shots in my upper middly chest which seem to help. They only seem to work in smaller muscle groups (my chest is weaker in development on one side due to surgery some time ago). I have heard of good results in calf shots to the inside head, but understand you need to be sure you are not hitting any veins, right now I am a little too smooth to tell where they are LOL

I've had no problems with injecting all three of the tricept heads. Somtimes its a wee bit occward but as long as I go slow, I've never hit a vein.

Calves on the other hand. FORGET IT!! I've tried several times and every time I do, I'm limping around for a week. I don't know what it is. Must be high density nerve endings in my calves. It sucks too because calves are my weak point. I wish I could use SEOs to bring them up.

Oh well.

calves are a no no

Listen to macdaddy. twice i have injected into the calf and twice i ended up needing medical assistance. nothing worse than listening to a doctor ramble on about the dangers of juice :

BigA- it seems like it would be hard to rotate sites in spot #3, would it really be that important? my guess is that you should just hit the peak and massage the hell out of it to keep a lump from forming. is this correct?

Correct.
