Scar tissue

Hey guys, I have a large build up of scar tissue in my delt over injecting the area without proper rotation frequency. It’s very painful to inject and the area always feels full. I’ve left the area for quite awhile now if I inject it’s painful and always cough just like I’m injecting tren. Is there a way to reduce the scar tissue or break it down to make it a useable site again ? SaltyDawg

Best recommendation is take the delt out of rotation for a while. Is there a reason you shoot delts only? The best recommendation I can give you is a good art session, will hurt though. Or you can always try rolling the area with a ball or something along those lines to help break up the scar tissue. In time it will heal itself but not necessarily a fast process.

Been a while since I have had to deal with that issue. When I started I was a quad injection only type of guy. I still remember the sound/feeling of pushing the needing through scar tissue.

Sites that have since become favorited are ventro gluteal muscles (once you can pin point it easily you’ll love the site) and lats believe it or not. The more sites you put in rotation the better.

What size needle do you use?
 
Sorry I’m case you never heard of ART it stands for Active release therapy. Your doctor should be able to do it for you or refer you to someone who does it
 
I currently use 1 inch 25g needle, Just delt was my favourite site and it was easy. I do rotate now and I seem to be enjoying quads . I might venture to calves. SaltyDawg

Im getting the same issue on my glutes. Need to pin delts but never have done it and concerned I may miss the spot? is there a youtube vid for delts?
 
A good massage therapist will help break up scar tissue but you can do a lot at home with a rock hard ball and rolling on your side using your BW for the resistance. I don't play the sport but I believe it is a racket ball that was recommended. It is very hard. It takes a while to get used to moving your body around on the ball but it will help with scar tissue and any shoulder issues if muscle related.
 
Welcome to the dark side of the dark side my new brother.
Don't let one of these fucking pussies talk you out of it.

Haha at Gondar being the cheer leader here. You sadistic fuck hahaha

Salty dawg. I don’t know if you are joking or not so I will give you a straigh answer back. Calves are about the only muscle I DO NOT recommend using. Just speaking from experience. I’ll hit biceps and chest all day long but calves. Yeah fuck that shit

Lacrosse ball is rock hard. That's what I use
 
What is this grastron you speak of?
The therapist will use a tool similar in shape to a butter knife and SCRAPE your skin/fascia/muscle. Sounds d. Feels like popcorn as they scrape away BUT it helps break up scar tissue over several treatments. It hurts like fuck but worth every second eventually

Ah ok looked it up I’ll post this article later on the difference between both techniques. But A.R.T and Graston appear to be extremely similar in concepts. (It 4am and I just got up to pee, I’ll revisit and finish reading when both my eyes are open). Back to bed for me
 
What gauge needle are you guys using? I'm probably going to buy some 27 gauge 1 in. see how that treats me but they're kind of hard to find.
I usually do glutes but have been doing some quad but sometimes it hurts like a bastard feels like I'm injecting into a damn tendon can't imagine calves fuck that shit!
As a matter of fact fuck bicep chest lat never tried any but I can't imagine it not hurting like a bastard.
Any advice or do I just need to quit being so delicate?
