Sub Q Inj Question

I'm pretty new to this but after 25 injections my issue is this;

I have to push what I feel is relatively hard to get through my skin. I feel like I'm missing something obvious. I've tried 90* and 45* with no discernable difference. I'm using BD 6mm 31g syringes. I'd like to get this ironed out before I start having to pin more often. Is this just a matter of faster/harder?

Any assistance is appreciated.

For me, I found anywhere that has stretch marks, I was 200kgs once, is alot harder to push through. I also rotate my stomach, butt and thigh in order to give other areas a rest. Being that you are using an ultra thin gauge and relatively shortener needles then the Terumo ones, the butt and thigh shouldn't be to much of an issue.
