SUBSTANCE
Ostarine
,
Also referred to as MK 2866, Enobasarm, or GTX-024, Ostarine is a widely recognized selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM). It was initially developed to combat muscle wasting and osteoporosis. Nowadays, many athletes use Ostarine to enhance their performance and gain a competitive advantage.
Since it does not lead to virilization issues in women, Ostarine is suitable for both genders.
Mechanism of Action
Ostarine selectively binds to androgen receptors, similar to anabolic steroids, but with significantly fewer side effects.
Research Findings
A 12-week double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase II clinical trial on Ostarine demonstrated its effectiveness in increasing lean muscle mass and improving physical function, without the adverse side effects typically associated with testosterone and other anabolic steroids.
Medical Applications
Ostarine was primarily designed for treating muscle wasting and osteoporosis. However, it also aids in nitrogen retention and strengthens joints, making it a versatile compound with a range of health benefits.
Athletic Applications
Ostarine functions similarly to anabolic steroids but with significantly reduced side effects and minimal suppression. Blood tests have revealed that Ostarine suppresses the hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis (HPTA) by only 10-20%, compared to 95% suppression seen with anabolic steroids. As a result, Ostarine can be used either alone or in combination during cycles, for post-cycle therapy (PCT), or during bridging, making it a flexible option for athletes.
Women may find Ostarine to be a safer alternative to anabolic steroids, as it won't lead to facial hair growth, clitoral enlargement, or other masculine traits.
Additionally, Ostarine is favored by powerlifters and bodybuilders for its ability to strengthen bones and joints.
Healing Properties
Ostarine is popular among bodybuilders and powerlifters due to its notable ability to enhance bone and joint strength. This is crucial, as athletes often face persistent injuries such as forearm or shin splints, neck pain, and joint discomfort. Unfortunately, many resort to harmful drugs to mask the pain, which can lead to chronic issues over time. In contrast, Ostarine works effectively by increasing tendon and ligament strength, as well as bone density, at dosages under 20 milligrams per day. Rather than merely masking the problem, Ostarine addresses it, making it beneficial for athletes with inflamed joints.
Doping Regulations
All SARMs, including Ostarine, were banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) in early 2008. Nevertheless, this did not deter Nikita Novikov, a Russian champion cyclist, who was suspended in June 2013 for testing positive for Ostarine.
Stacking Options
There are several ways to stack Ostarine, depending on your goals:
Side Effects
Ostarine is not toxic to the liver and does not negatively impact blood pressure or strain other organs. However, some users have reported gynecomastia when using high doses for extended periods, so having an aromatase inhibitor (AI) on hand is advisable.
As mentioned, Ostarine is non-suppressive when taken for four weeks or less at recommended dosages, eliminating the need for PCT. However, those choosing higher doses or longer cycles should implement a PCT regimen.
Half-Life, Use, and Dosage
Ostarine has a half-life of about 24 hours, allowing for just one daily dose. The liquid form should be shaken well, squirted into the mouth, and swallowed immediately, ideally followed by juice or water. It's important not to hold Ostarine under the tongue or mix it in a cup, as this can lead to some loss of the compound.
Typical Ostarine dosages range from 12.5 to 50 mg per day. Lower doses are recommended for those using it for its healing properties, while higher doses are for those focused on body recomposition and muscle gain.
