Women & SARMs

Building and honing muscle in the gym requires a significant amount of effort as a male athlete, however, for women it can be even more challenging due to structural limitations when it comes to gaining mass and significant hormone changes and fluctuations each month, not to mention often juggling busy schedules between work and family life.

As women, we often start our path to fitness by taking smaller steps such as attending a few weekly group classes or following an individualised fitness program that is suited to our specific body type. We look for workout regimes that work with our busy calendars and are efficient and effective. We tend to feel accomplished when our bodies look bikini ready and feel lean and toned, as opposed to achieving the ‘ultimate shred’ or the ‘ultimate gain’ that our male counterparts aim for. However, once we have reached our ‘peak’ in our fitness journey and want to turn it up a notch, women often wonder…what’s next?

SARMs for Women

SARMs vs Steroids

While anabolic steroids have been readily available for years, they are not suitable for women due to their unfocused results and wide array of unwanted side-effects, one of the most alarming being virilisation (masculine side effects).

Anabolic steroids tend to batter the androgen receptors in the body, signalling them to rapidly build muscle without specifically targeting an area. Women who use steroids often build muscle without naturally trimming any fat and can begin to take on a more masculine shape and build. Because steroid use disrupts the normal production of hormones in the body, women begin to display side-effects such as breast size and body fat decreasing whilst the skin becomes coarse, and the voice deepens significantly. Women may also experience excessive growth of body hair but lose scalp hair.

An Introduction to SARMs

When it comes to SARMs, luckily there are two different types for women to choose from – steroidal and non-steroidal, women looking to transform their physiques without any virilisation (masculinisation) side-effects should look at incorporating non-steroidal SARMs into their workout regimes. This will ensure your physique is toned, tightened, and stripped of fat without putting on additional masculine bulk in the process and can decrease the risks of virilisation side-effects.

The best SARMs for women are those that will not lead to virilisation through their association with testosterone mimicking.

The SARMs deemed safest for use by women are the following:

SarmNation Vascular
Ostarine (MK2866)

Ostarine is the most commonly used SARM by women. Not only is it effective and generally side-effect free, it is also simple to use and backed by research-based evidence.

One of the main drawcards for women taking Ostarine is that a relatively low dose is required to see appreciable results. 10mg per day over a four-week cycle can produce significant results. An added bonus when using Ostarine is that no PCT (post cycle therapy) is required for an Ostarine cycle.

What does Ostarine do?

Increases strength
Builds muscle
Enhances vascularity

SarmNation Tone
Andarine (S4)

Andarine is considered as one of the best SARMs for weight / fat loss by both men and women. It has shown to be particularly effective when used to cut down visceral and abdominal fat.

Bodybuilders have reported the results from Andarine produce a very dry, hard look to the muscles and that it significantly increases strength levels quite quickly. Women also use Andarine to improve and enhance their recovery times.

What does Andarine do?

Produces clear-cut results i.e. dry, hard muscles
Improves recovery times
Increases strength levels

SarmNation Extreme Physique
Ligandrol (LGD4033)

Ligandrol is the second most popular SARM that is used by women who are wanting to gain mass and increase strength. It is a much stronger product in comparison to Ostarine and should not be used by beginners. Users will often start with Ostarine and complete a handful of cycles before embarking on an LGD4033 cycle.

One of the benefits of Ligandrol is its’ efficiency when aiming to rapidly increase size and strength. It is also considered as a more cost-effective option due to its potency, not much is required to achieve measurable results.

What does Ligandrol do?

Rapidly increases strength
Rapidly increases size / gains
Cost-effective

SarmNation Shred
Stenabolic (SR9009)

Stenabolic is a PPAR (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor) rather than a traditional SARM and is used by women to increase the metabolic activity of skeletal muscle and simulate the effect of cardio exercise to increase calorie burning. This product is for women looking to finish the day on a negative calorie balance and promote fat loss.

An added benefit of Stenabolic is that it has been shown to improve sleep quantity and quality whilst also boosting stamina and endurance.

What does Stenabolic (SR9009) do?

Increases calorie burning
Promotes fat loss
Improves sleep quality

SARMs women should steer clear of due to virilisation and other unwanted side effects:

RAD140 + RAD150 – SarmNation Testolone + Test 2.0
YK11 – SarmNation Size On
S23 – SarmNation Pump

All you need to know about SARMs

What is stacking?

Stacking is for athletes looking to make significant progress while training, running a SARMs stack is the most effective method. Stacking involves adding several compounds together to yield the best results, some of which include accelerated muscle growth, faster recovery times and increased endurance.

What are cycles?

Every SARMs cycle is different, with various types of delivery methods, as well as varying concentrations and strengths. That said, every SARMs user sticks to a dosage range. In general, most compound dosages range from 5mg to 30mg per dose. Be aware that some SARMs have more powerful effects, even at lower doses. So always start low to assess your response and increase (in 5mg) as necessary. Women should be incredibly mindful of keeping to the absolute minimum when starting out with SARMs dosages.

What is PCT?

Post-cycle therapy, also known as PCT, is a specific protocol that is followed after a cycle of performance-enhancing products. This process helps to recover the users’ hormone levels.

What is a PPAR?

In a nutshell PPAR is different to regular SARMs:

PPAR possess no anabolic activity and do not bind to the androgen receptor.
PPAR agonists do not suppress HPTA or effect testosterone production in any way.
PPAR increases endurance but carries no stimulant nature so they will not affect sleep or cortisol levels.

What is the most powerful SARM on the market?

YK-11 – SarmNation Size On
YK-11 bridges the gap between SARMs and Prohormones. An incredibly strong SARM, always use with comprehensive cycle support and keep duration of use as short as possible.

– Callum

“The first session after using my SarmNation products, has been the BEST gym session I have ever had.
I have used SARMs before so maybe my receptors are more open to the high quality SarmNation clearly produces and there for know what to do with the SARMs, but that said I was left with skin peeling pump and long lasting strength throughout the workout. Once the workout was over I felt euphoric long into the afternoon. Thank you team SarmNation!! This is the premium product is SARM users have been waiting for.”
