Winstrol is a diuretic, which means it lowers the amount of extracellular water (water stored outside of muscle cells). […]

Ligandrol and other SARMs show promise for the potential treatment of cachexia and sarcopenia due to their anabolic effects and tissue selectivity (2). LGD-4033 strongly binds to the androgen receptor, similar to […]

Anavar (oxandrolone) was created in 1962 to increase lean muscle in patients suffering from cachexia (muscle wasting). However, it was not long before Anavar was used in bodybuilding due to its anabolic (muscle-building) and lipolytic (fat-burning) properties. Anavar became utilized as a cutting steroid at the expense of some users experiencing cardiotoxicity (heart toxicity) and […]

Despite a lack of approval, SARMs are becoming increasingly utilized in bodybuilding circles due to a misconception that they are safe alternatives to anabolic steroids. Thus, just like with steroids, there are SARMs with […]
