First cycle - Will it effect my work performance? Or anything else mentally??? 03 February 2012 18:39 (permalink)
Evening fella's
 
Almost ready for my first cycle. I'm quite anxious! Partly because I'm a wimp when it comes to needles, and at some point soon need to inject for the 1st time. Not looking forward to it at all, as no doubt I'll do somthing wrong and hit a bone or somthing!
 
But whats concerning me also is how will it effect my personallity? Sure, we are all different, so effects will vary alot I expect. But can I expect to have higher energy and increased work performance?
 
Could I have less patience and be more aggressive or confrontational?
 
When I finished the cycle, is there a risk of diminshed work performance? Tired? Lathargic? emotional?
 
Some thoughts, opinions & experiences would be nice know.....
 
Also, how much does it hurt? Is it like having blood taken? Yes I know thats the vien, not the muscle, but is that comparable????

    Hi Mate
     
    I wouldnt worry too much about hitting a bone, unless your 8 stone wet through and use a 1.5inch needle.
     
    My thoughts on personality changes on cycle......if your a calm and laid back person then you shouldnt have too many problems.    On the other hand, if your abit of a nob with temper then this will be maginified IMO.
     
    As for coming off cycle, loss of strength is par the course for me, i usually feel pretty down also, but i suppose some of this psychological as well.
     
    Just make sure your PCT is in order, keep your cals up and continue to train hard and it wont be the end of world.
     
    As for injecting, it doesnt hurt, you will just feel a little prick:)  Try to relax, dont hold your breath and take your time.
     
    All the best with the cycle fella.

      Thanks,
       
      Whats the best site to choose from? Does it matter? Cant see my arse as a good choice for two reasons..
       
      1-Cant see what the hell im doing
      2-I dont have an arse - just hip bones
      Doing the right thing is easy,
      Its knowing the right thing to do, thats the problem.

          Yes mate, I do have a glute muscles. If you hold your thumbs together, you'll get a rough idea how big they are.
           
          Besides the size, I would need somone else to do it! (with a micro pin)
           
          The thigh muscle seems my best bet?
           
          If i go for the quad I might go straight though and out the other side, waste of gear...

                Nobody seems to mention the thigh muscle. To a novice like me, that seems the best choice because its a big muscle I can go deep into, & I wont have to break my back to get to it.

                  Delts are shoulders mate.  
                   
                  Have alook at this for more information on injecting

                      Good stuff, thanks.
                       
                      Does the needle need to go all the way in to the base of the barrel as in those pics?

                        Personally i dont go all the way in , just in case the needle happens to break off, just leave a few millimeters i would say.

                            Just stick with delts mate, sorry if I thought you were taking the pi$$. Delts are deeper than they appear. Use a 1 inch needle don't jab all the way in if you don't wnat to and just shoot the oil simples.

                              No worries,
                               
                              I deserve some pi$$ take with some of what ive been asking.
                               
                              Yeah 1 inch in the delts sounds aS good a plan as any,
                               
                              I take it people who use the glutes have to get someone else to do it for them?
                               
                              Im thinking of asking the lady, but if it goes wrong, I dont want to blame anyone else.
                               
                              So best I go alone, I THINK

                                Do glutes, delts and quads. 6 sites is cool to stop scar tissue, your ass is a prob I hate doing these as I have to twist myself in front of a mirror, normally mark the site with a felt tip bit like the scene from pup fiction otherwise I cant work out where the hell its going!!! lol 1.5inch for glutes, 1inch for quads and delts (blue) (green for glutes)
                                 
                                Edit - This is how I do glutes (dont laugh) twist in a mirror and mark a circle with a felt tip where you should be injecting (after cleaning with swab etc) Now twist and look down, hopefully can see the circle, jab and hopefully don't get cramp while contorting yourself!! Use the mirror to see if the circle is in the right place before jabbing. This is the only way I can do it on my own, quads and delts are easier.

                                    Nothings ever simple is it! Do you feel any different after the 1st jab? I mean does it make you want to hit the weights or go mad for sex or anything like that?
