It was two weeks I believed and yeah, just RSP T Prime (in addition to regular multivitamins, fish oils, etc). I wasn’t doing any blood work so I’m not sure how appropriate this amateur PCT was, but Iit seemed to work for me.

Thank you for the insightful documentation of your journey. Learned alot!
May I know how long is your PCT cycle and do you only take RSP T Prime during PCT?

Thank you!

Cheers Chris!

Happy for you man, sounds like you’re life is cooking along at full steam! I didn’t do bloods with my mk-677/ostarine cycle but I don’t remember any serious sides, and felt “normal” pretty much through the entirety of the experiment. I did note slightly reduced libido but I never went full monk if you catch my drift. I think it’s pretty conclusive that Ostarine will reduce test levels, but from everything I’ve seen, not nearly on the same scale as some of the more hardcore SARMs (LGD/YK-11 etc).

I didn’t do bloods so I can’t say. Derek from More Plates More Dates is probably one of the most experienced smartest SARMs experts out there and he says it’ll put a dent in your natural test. That said, I didn’t notice any of the obvious symptoms when I ran my mini cycle, although my doses were probably lower than many people choose to run. Safest thing to do is get before bloods, then if you choose to experiment, start at very low quantities and test at milestones along the way.

any feedback on the osta shutting you down mate ..i am about to order thia combo after coming off the juice ..trying for baby so juice is a no no ..i need something that wont effect my balls ..cheers for any feedback

any idea if osta effects natty test (shut down ) thanks mate

Thanks for the info Erik! I’m working with a professional PT who has bodybuilding experience, but I think I decided not to go the SARM route. I have some leaning out to do and work to do before I’d even think of something like that. I appreciate the advice and the well wishes! Thanks for all the info!

Thanks for the kind words. I don’t know if “well documented” is fair, it was more of just a personal test that I journaled and ended up publishing. For more in depth documentation I’d check out Coach Trevor and the Enhanced Athlete team as well as guys like Derek from More Plates More Dates. They’re on a whole other level from me.
But I can say, I have weighed by heaviest when I was experimenting with MK-677 🙂

Hey Chris! Thanks for the kind words and congratulations on your journey, 40 pounds is an insane achievement. As for SARMs, or any performance enhancer, the general consensus among elite bodybuilders seems to be A) no point in using them unless you compete and/or B) if you do use them, only do it to break genetic plateaus. For my experiment I fell into category B because I don’t compete and I’d been lifting for quite a few years by that point, seemingly at my genetic limit, although others have pointed out that might not have been the case and they could be correct. Knowing when you’ve hit your genetic limit is a tough thing to be real confident about.
If I had to guess, I’d say you’ve probably not reached your max potential after 1.5 years. That’s a good amount of time but from everything I’ve read it usually takes non-competitive/non-professionally coached bodybuilders 4-6 years to fully optimize both their training and diet, and I’m talking nitty gritty here, very precise workout cycles, jedi-level mind-muscle connection, and at least a couple of years of solid work within minimal lean weight gains before you’d be genetically maxed out.
That said 205 at 15% ain’t bad, especially if you’re on the taller side.
Ultimately only you can decide. I haven’t done a follow up experiment since my original log because I’ve been pretty happy with my natural conditioning. COVID leaned me out huge when gyms closed and I adjusted my workout/diet and now have the body fat % I’ve struggled so long to obtain.
