I tried a few pops in the calves before and NEVER again...Even if the shot itself and/or the compound doesn't hurt, the residual pain isn't nice at all...Especially if you work in a job where you stand for 11-13 hours a day... <img src="http://www.massmonsters.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif" alt="Frown" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:

Once you get to the point of wanting to try it, hit those bi's and tri's too...You'll like it once you do it...But not really a MUST if you are just starting out... <img src="http://www.massmonsters.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" width="15" height="15"><!--graemlin:
