Cardarine

What is Cardarine?

Cardarinе is considered as one of the most effective fat burners in bodybuilding. It is well-known for its ability to increase endurance and strength during training. Also, it has a great anti-catabolic effect and does not disrupt metabolism or lower blood sugar.

This is a really potent SARM, which is primarily used for increasing endurance, allowing you to spend more time doing exercises in the gym, and for use in weight loss cycles. Athletes usually take it to prepare for a competition or in the pre-season, as it is one of the most popular and effective substances now.

• Burns fat
• Increases the energy
• Increases endurance and performance

• Improves well-being

Cardarine Benefits

• Cardarine has a powerful anti-catabolic effect, which uses subcutaneous fat as a source of energy. The substance will provide excellent results even without heavy loads in the gym, but nevertheless, complex work is always better.
• It provides more visible muscle definition without the catabolic effects, unlike other fat burners. It is both an excellent fat burner and an anabolic, which shortens your recovery time after intense workouts, thereby allowing you to achieve your desired results faster. It will provide much more faster results following a strict diet and exercise regimen.
• It goes well with almost all other SARMs.
• Another positive effect is that it does not reduce cardiovascular activity and reduces weight by burning fat rather than muscle.
• Cardarine does not cause liver toxicity. Despite this, the doses should remain in the low to medium range.

How to Take Cardarine?

The drug is taken orally with a small amount of water, one hour after breakfast. The standard dose for an athlete is 10-15 mg per day. Beginners should start with 10mg; advanced users take 15mg per day. The optimal cycle duration is 8-12 weeks.

The half-life of the drug is 16 to 24 hours. 10 mg\day dose use once a day, 20mg\day dose should be divided into two with an interval of 12 hours.

PCT

Cardarine does not suppress your natural testosterone function, so there is no need to follow up with any post-cycle therapy.

It will only be required if you use it in conjunction with other drugs. It usually includes drugs such as Clomid and Nolvadex, and sometimes HCG is also used.

Female Use

Women can use Cardarine, as it does not cause any side effects of virilization or masculinization. The standard dosage is 10mg per day for 8-12 weeks.

Cardarine Cycles

The substance is most often used as the only drug in a cycle, as it already gives excellent results. However, athletes should combine it with other substances for better efficiency. Let's take a look at the different cycle variants:

GW-501516 only cycle

This is a powerful compound, so you can safely use it in 10-20mg doses. The cycle should be 8-10 weeks.

GW-501516 bulking cycle

Your cycle can consist of Cardarine only at a dose of 10-20 mg per day or combine it with Nandrolone (Deca-Durabolin). Use 300mg to 600mg of Deca weekly combined with 10-20mg daily of Cardarine for 10 weeks.

GW-501516 cutting cycle

Advanced users use in general 20 mg daily. The dose should be divided into 2 and cycle lasts 8 weeks. Testolone is often added to the drug formore impressive fat loss and toning. Use 10 mg each day for an 8-week cycle. Follow PCT after the cycle (use Nolvadex or Clomid).

Possible Side Effects and How to Avoid Them

Cardarine does not have strong expressive side effects  . It does not aromatize, so there are NO estrogen-related side effects such as gynecomastia, water retention, or high blood pressure.

 It also has no androgenic activity, so you will NOT experience hair loss or acne, and women will not experience virilization. The drug does not suppress natural testosterone levels and has no negative effect on the liver.

Of the negative effects with incorrect dosages, it can only harm the cardiovascular system; in this case, it is recommended to reduce its dosage, after which it should disappear.

Popular Cardarine Q&A

What effects does Cardarine provide?

The substance quickly and effectively begins to act in the body; already, in the first few days of the cycle, you will begin to notice a significant improvement in endurance and an increase in strength. Cardarine will allow you to train longer and more intensely.

It will provide you with faster muscle growth, improved fitness, and performance throughout your cycle. This way, you will achieve impressive results without side effects. The substance does not have any steroid-type negative effects, such as gynecomastia or bloating, or any androgenic effects, so any fat loss or weight gain will go easily and efficiently if you follow a diet and exercise regimen.

Do you need PCT after Cardarine?

Cardarine does not suppress testosterone function, so you don't need PCT. However, if you combine a substance with an anabolic steroid that induces suppression, then you will need to do post-cycle therapy.

Thus, use:

• Gonadotropin during your cycle and one and a half months after your cycle to maintain results and prevent testosterone suppression. (2 injections per week, 2000-3000 IU/day for 4 weeks)
• Clomid (50 mg per day for the first two weeks and dropping to 25 mg per day during the last two weeks of PCT)
• or Nolvadex (40mg/day for 2 weeks, then 40mg/day for next 2 weeks)

Cardarine is not toxic to the liver, unlike oral anabolic steroids. On the contrary, it can help compensate for liver damage caused by steroids. Therefore, it is recommended to add it to any steroid cycle if you want to reduce liver inflammation.
