Which Test injection method do you use - IM or SubQ

[Fireproof]

I looked around and didn't see a poll for this. Just various threads discussing the topic. If I missed a poll - please link me. Otherwise - would LOVE to get everyone's participation to see who is using which method, just out of curiosity.

For Test Injections are you injecting subcutaneously (SubQ) or Intramuscularly (IM)?

I know people do transdermal, pellets, etc, too, but this poll is not for that. Just looking for split between SubQ and IM...

Thanks for the replies so far. For some reason, I can't seem to vote in my own poll, but FYI - I'm currently doing IM...

29 gauge .5 inch in delts and quads. Didn't bother me that much but don't miss 23 gauge at all

 

[Jay]

IM shallow quads

 

[recurve6]

IM. Quads 1inch 25 gauge. Delts 5/8inch 25 gauge.

No problems with either, prefer to go deep into the muscle.

1" 25g IM quads and delts.
I've tried subq and it just didn't work for me like IM.

Why 25? I mean it didn't bother me much, but 29 or even 27 does the same job with less. And, 1" on your delts? What's your bf%?

25g is what I've always used for IM. I've tried 1/2" but respond better to deep IM. I have massive delts and quads, and have no problem at all using the 1" needles. Latest lab results..
