Janoshik says the sample believed to be 5-Amino-1MQ was tested using two different fentanyl immunoassays, with each test run twice. Even after dilution, all four tests reportedly came back positive.
Does this increase your confidence in the findings, or do you think confirmatory testing (such as LC-MS/MS) is still necessary before drawing conclusions?
People underestimate how much fat they actually carry over the glutes.
Even at 15%, ventroglute with a 27g 5/8 has been completely fine for me.
I started TRT last winter. Nurse recommended 1″. Later I experimented with 5/8″ after dropping about 35 pounds. Worked much better once I leaned out.
Body fat isn’t the only factor. Fat distribution varies a lot from person to person.
My endocrinologist basically said if you’re unsure, use the longer needle.
I’ve got visible abs and still prefer 1″. Doesn’t hurt enough to justify going shorter.
I accidentally bought a box of 5/8″ needles instead of 1″. Used them for delts instead and reordered. Problem solved.
I’ve been lifting since the late 90s. We didn’t overthink this nearly as much back then. Pick the appropriate needle, rotate sites, keep things sterile, move on.
Honestly I’d rather have a needle that’s slightly longer than wonder whether the oil actually reached muscle.
Recovery was identical for me whether I used 5/8″ or 1″, but I definitely carry less fat around my hips than most guys.
