OK, let me say first of all, thank you very much to everyone on the boards for all of the knowledge. Thanks to all of you, I was able to make some intelligent decisions on what I should do considering my goals; I appreciate everyones input.
That being said I'm doing 10 weeks test prop EOD @ 150 each shot (Started 1/29). I'm using 23 Gage 1inch pins. I've got Arimidex at .25 EOD as needed, and Nova/clomid for PCT. I'm running this as a cutting cycle in combo with Clen/T3 (two 3 week cycles) in prep for my St Maarten vacation in April.
Starting stats 208lbs 12%
I'll post before/after at the 5 and 10 week marks.
Initial observations - Right delt was an easy pin - 2 days later YEOW! Did right quad today - can't wait to limp tomorrow.
Again - I appreciate everyones willingness to offer help and knowledge. OH, and most of all - Thanks Alin!

Keep us up to date. And St Maarten Rocks, it's my favorite of the Virgin Islands.

Draw the prop out then warm up the prop with a blow dryer before pinning, goodbye pain...
This cycle with a proper diet and what you already look like (Avi) you'll be the best looking guy on the island...

Blow dryer - Wow, how long? 30 seconds or so? My Lord if this works!

I use one of those small 12"x12" heating pads for your back. Some people put a cup with 1/2" of water in the microwave and then put the vial in it. It doesn't matter how you heat it. It really helps. You should be able to put the vial against the inside of your wrist without burning yourself just like you would do with baby formula. So just under 100 degrees F.

I used to warm mine in a cup with hot tap water. The biggest problem with that is when the vials get empty and full of air they float. So I'm going to switch to OJS method ! If I have the syringes pre-loaded I run warm tap water over them. You have to be very carefull not to contaminate the pin even with the pin cover on you can get water in it and have to throw it away:mad:

Prop has a sting to it. Warm it under a hot faucet and inject slowly, taking a 20 second break every 1/2cc.
Do not inject it into your quad. Inject it into your delt right at the shoulder. A 1inch pin works great, but I prefer 25gauge pins. 23 hurts. Why inject in your shoulder? Well, would you rather have a stiff arm or a swollen ass or limp?

This is how I do it. Just hold the pin vertical and you will see the last bit of air bubble out of the pin, when it does, you are ready.

OK - here I am, day 1: Starting stats 208lbs 12%
3rd pin went fine, left delt, heated the oil up as advised. Right quad was a little sore but nothing like the first pin.
More to come.

Hopfully you guys can give me some insight here. I've pinned four times now and each time after about 8 hours after the pin I start to feel like I have the flu (ache all over but no temp) within 36 hours it goes away... But then it's time to pin again. It's more annoying than anything, but for ten weeks, it'll get old quick.
As for my pins, it's clean as hell (pads, gloves, etc).
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

I get that when I run Prop also. Usually only lasts a couple weeks for me, getting less and less every day.

You might be having a simple reaction to the oil. Try pinning at night taking 50mg of Benadryl 1/2 hour before you pin and then another 50mg 2-3 hours later. It will either work like magic. Or it won't do a thing.:cool:
OJS posted this a few hours ago on an other thread but it's the same thing I would recommend for you. Some people just don't do well with prop. I have lumps the first rotation through when I start a new cycle with prop. The Benadryl works for me.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback. I'll wait it out and try the benadryl (I'm actually taking it during my clen/t3 cycle but the timing is off to be helpful with the pins) as suggested.
Thanks again!
