-1 Ostarine + Cardarine [ sarms ] following an anabolic cycle?

ad

Been reading great things about ostarine for tendon issues which i unfortunately have. My test blast + anavar cycle ends in 1 months when i will resume my standard doctor prescribed trt.

Is there anything negative to jumping into sarms right after my cycle is over? Here are the "pros" i've gathered. If anyone has anything negative/ advice to add please comment!

Cardarine: Huge lipid support + mild fat loss properties. Anavar & TUDCA will have slightly damaged my lipids over the 8 week cycle so I feel this sarm could only be a benefit as I plan to continue my cut post anavar anyway.

Ostarine: Many have said this sarm can assist with tendon issues which I currently have. Also can aid in muscle retention in a calorie deficit which I will still be in post cycle.

Unless on TRT I'd definitely not come off a blast and go straight to SARMs. I rate Ostarine (when it's of decent quality) a lot, but that's not the situation to take it IMO. Do your PCT, sleep well, eat healthily, and train hard but not excessively, and let your body recover.

Cardarine you could possibly use but, as others have said already, do not expect it to strip fat off your body independently of energy balance. Good quality cardarine is amazing for increasing exercise capacity, and it does improve lipid profiles, but IMO the protocol for each benefit should be different. For exercise capacity take a higher dose (20-25mg) 2-3 hours on workout days only, but for improving lipids take a smaller dose (10-15mg) daily for a couple of months.

Also, just noted you said you will continue to be in a calorie deficit after coming off cycle. I think that's a mistake, personally. A better planned cutting cycle IMO would see your cycle culminate at the end of your cut because, once you come off, you are going to lose gains anyway, but especially if you add in an energy deficit. Continuing to cut post cycle is the best way to minimize, or even annihilate, as quickly as possible any improvements made to your physique from the cycle.

  1. cardarine doesnt make you lose fat... it just keeps you push further and harder during cardio, helps with glucose levels and lipids thats it (like you stated).

  2. ostarine isnt worth running, still processed by the liver. Any steroid will help with muscle retention during a cut.

  3. if you want to lose fat then do night walks for 30min to burn off like 150-210cal or reduce calories

  4. You made a post about running an ECA stack and now this? Dude you are causing more oxidative stress on your body more than needed. If i were you i would just up the cardio and introduce the cardarine for like 4 to 6 weeks to help recover the lipids from the anavar

extra, yes jumping into sarms after a blast is fucking retarded, treat sarms like orals cause they are orals, with some people i know on other forums ostarine and others like rad140 caused a few guys acute hepatitis.

Cons to using sarms post cycle:

  1. Ostarine while mild is still suppressive and would hinder optimal recovery

  2. Ostarine does affect lipids and in some people have shown to raise live enzymes

  3. Cardarine is a bit of a questionable compound as to it's safety profile, with it possibly being carcinogenic.

If you have a tendon issue and messed up lipid taking a break from any form of drug use is the best option. If you keep training and eating right it shouldn't be a problem to maintain your shape.

SL is correct. You need to give your body some rest.

Unless youre on trt id take a break and rest some

I am on trt actually. I've read ostarine can be suppressive but that wouldnt be an issue in my case cause i'll always have exogenous test running through me.

Just because you are a race car driver does not mean you can do 150mph on public roads without getting arrested.

In other words trt is not a free ticket to cycle endlessly.

I know bro.

Thats why i said i am just starting to learn about sarms & wanted to know how a sarm cycle plays into anabolics and the guidelines of cycling anabolics.

IrishMack's picture

Common sense is the guideline. Research the health problems with running a constant cycle.

Fuck it brother! Yolo, let's get big and nasty fast!

Actually your post is "perfect". A lot more people, including myself, should do this from time to time.
