Subriel Matias just did. Pretty sure this is what Khan and Garcia were caught for too. Now I used to box had 21 bouts (8 amateur 13 unlicensed) and I lifted weights years now but never got on a steroid cycle but I know loads of hardcore juice heads. Trenbolone, Dianabol, Testosterone, Clenbuterol, Decka, HGH etc I all understand, and I do also appreciate that sarms work as I’ve seen lads have great results from them. But I’ve looked into Ostarine a bit and I don’t understand why people take it. Must be a reason, any know it’s specific effects. Seems to be fighters at lighter weights too.
SARMS are popular with pretty much anybody who wants an anabolic edge in fitness, pro athletes and random teen bodybuilders are popping them like candy nowadays.
I think it helps not lose muscle mass while you’re starving off fat. Which would explain why it’s being used by smaller guys.
Found this little snippet off Google might explain it: Dietary Supplements: This is the most common source. Ostarine (also known as MK-2866 or enobosarm) is not approved for human consumption by the FDA, but it is illegally included, often unlabeled or using misleading names, in bodybuilding and sports supplements. Studies have found that a significant percentage of supplements contain unlabeled doping agents, and even trace amounts can trigger an adverse analytical finding in a doping test
It is a pretty weak SARM, of course tren and other stuff are much more effective, but these lower weight class boxers are not looking for building big muscles. They just want to make weight while retaining strength.
Garcia getting an automatic title shot against Barrios after failing a PED test is a joke in its own right; however, given the fact that they're using it as a bargaining chip to fight Conor Benn, another notorious PED cheat, is just beyond comical. The sport is an absolute joke with zero standards. I know this is nothing new, but still. The fact that Barrios is a world champion is also farcical. Brian Norman is going to ride in with maximum violence and cleanse the division of all of these clowns, so there's hope yet.
Ostarine is completely useless but since it’s labeled as a PED and easy accessible so some misled people try it. It’s so useless I refuse to believe that any pro athlete took it and must have got it through contaminated supplement/food. I’m not so ignorant that I don’t think pro athletes take PED’s, I just don’t think they willingly take Ostarine when it’s many other real steroids that actually work and will be out system way faster that Ostarine.
Thanks mate I think you really understood the question. I have a pretty good understanding why Benn was caught with Clomid. He’d been on a proper cycle and needed to reset his test most likely. Ostarine I’ve looked up and it says it gives you lots of energy but nobody I know has took it. I was wondering why all these boxers are popping for it. I could see Garcia was on something even before he failed his test.
I tried it, it’s useless and that why I’m so sure that no top athlete would willingly take it. It’s nothing you would take after a proper cycle either because it’s suppressive. The only reasonable reason athletes is failing for it is because they took something else that either was contaminated or contained Ostarine. I would rather use an energy drink than Ostarine, you’ll get a lot more performance benefits from that.
