Introduction of SARMs: MK-2866 (Ostarine)
There is no doubt that Ostarine (MK-2866) is one of the most widely used SARMs in the world, and it is also the first SARM to pass human clinical trials, while the other is Ligandrol (LGD 4033).
Although the number of clinical human test samples is limited, at least there are many mouse test data to support it, and there are also many bodybuilders or special athletes calling for the efficacy of the drug
1. What is Ostarine (MK-2866)
Ostarine, also known as MK-2866, GTx-024 and Enobosarm, is a synthetic drug created by GTx INC (founded in Memphis, Memphis) as an investigational selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) for the prevention of muscle loss. He has conducted a number of clinical trials and found that it is very effective in preventing or slowing down malnutrition or muscle atrophy caused by cancer, and because of the support of clinical trial data, Ostarine was introduced into the field of bodybuilding. Since then, there has been a substantial literature on the usage and aspects of Ostarine.
But anyone who uses it calls it the safest SARM. It has a testosterone-like effect without too much interference with the body's natural testosterone production. It can selectively enhance muscle and bone tissue, Its function is like the cycle of steroid Test-E, and it may even be comparable to Test-E plus Dianabol (Dbol), but without their related side effects, and it will not produce androgenic properties for non-muscle tissues , and no hepatotoxicity.
2. How to use Ostarine (MK-2866)?
Regarding the use of Ostarine, many people have different opinions. Bodybuilders use it as a combination of existing black magic substances in the process of muscle building, while some people use it alone for re-composition. use. He is born with a unique ability to burn fat, increase muscle strength along the way, and at the same time have the ability to increase net muscle. Some believe that this trait is unlikely to be achieved at the same time, unless steroids are used.
Mk-2866 Ostarine dosage
The recommended dose can be started from 15-20mg per day at the beginning, but most bodybuilders use 25-30mg per day and continue to use it for 6-8 weeks. Under the use of Ostarine, an increase of 7 pounds (3.2 kg) of net skeletal muscle mass is a common effect. If the diet control is thorough enough, some people have reported that the increase in skeletal muscle may increase to double digits in a 12-week cycle ( About 4~5 kg), its half-life is about 24 hours, so it only needs to be used once a day at a fixed time to maintain a constant blood concentration.
3. What kind of effect can be expected after using Ostarine (MK-2866)? (Mk-2866 benefits)
(1) Help increase muscle growth when building muscle:
If you plan to gain muscle during the off-season, Ostarine will be a good choice. It is a substance with muscle synthesis ability, which can enhance your muscle strength and reduce fatigue. More importantly, it can promote protein Synthetic and helps to increase net muscle mass. The biggest difference between him and steroids is that he does not have the effect of edema like steroids, and he has almost no side effects on the body. It can be expected to be 6~ Under the 8-week cycle, good and steady progress has been obtained. It is also recommended to stack it with LGD-4033. Finally, it is strongly recommended not to use it for more than 8 weeks. It is also necessary to give the body a rest time after use to let the male receptors Restores sensitivity.
More importantly, the amount of muscle growth obtained with Ostarine can be retained if the same diet and retraining intensity can be maintained after discontinuation.
(Note: Using steroids or SARMS etc. can help you reach your genetic limit for muscle growth faster, and if you continue to train aggressively, properly used including an effective PCT program, should be able to maintain your genetic limit indefinitely.)
(2) Ostarine helps to reduce fat:
People who use Ostarine to lose fat can realize that, especially when the calorie intake is a serious deficit, using it together can not only strengthen the effect of fat loss, because the metabolic rate slows down and the concentration of IGF and testosterone under the calorie deficit. Reduce, in this state, the body tends to enter the catabolic state (catabolic state). When you are in a deficit state, Ostarine can prevent your hard-earned muscles from being catabolized to provide the energy needed by the body. In the fat phase, there is no need to worry about excessive muscle loss, at least a number of clinical studies have proved this.
If you use Ostarine with GW-501516, S-4 and YK-11, etc., this can further enhance the effect of fat loss. (Note: S-4 is another SARM, which will be introduced in another topic, and it has amazing effects in the fat loss period.)
(3) Body Recomposition period:
For those who want to simultaneously increase muscle and reduce fat, and the goal is to maintain the weight and sculpt the current body shape, using Ostarine can allow you to simultaneously lose body fat and increase a little muscle mass. Perhaps the increase in muscle mass will not be too significant (about 3~5 pounds), but at the same time lose body fat.
To put it simply, Ostarine is an excellent choice for those who have just started to enter SARMS. It is also a good choice for users who have used SARMS and want to add extra "surprises" in the next cycle.
