YK-11 powder SARM 1000 mg

WHAT IS YK-11?

YK-11 is one of the newest SARMs (Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators) that is currently undergoing research. Unlike other SARMs such as MK-2866, LGD-4033, and RAD-140, it is steroidal in nature. It is argued by some that this substance doesn’t quality as a SARM and that it’s just a synthetic anabolic steroid.

YK11 closely resembles the structure of DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) and just like DHT, it is a partial agonist of the androgen receptor. Besides being a SARM, it is also a myostatin inhibitor. Myostatin also referred to as growth and differentiation factor-8 is a protein secreted in muscle tissues. It limits muscle cell growth.

BENEFITS OF YK-11

YK-11 INCREASES MUSCLE MASS

YK-11 is known for its ability to increase muscle mass. Apart from binding to the androgen receptors in muscle and bone tissue (like other SARMS) it also inhibits myostatin. Because myostatin limits muscle cell growth, inhibition increases muscle growth.

Research results show that YK 11 simply aims to increase follistatin levels. Follistatin is another naturally occurring protein in the human body which helps keep myostatin in check.

When follistatin is raised, myostatin level is lowered. YK11 binds itself to the androgen receptors inducing muscles that create more follistatin which reduces the levels of myostatin, a protein that limits the growth of skeletal muscle. The result is a whole lot of increased muscle mass.

INCREASES STRENGTH

YK-11 does not only increase muscle mass but is also known for effectively boosting strength.

INCREASES BONE DENSITY

Another benefit of YK-11 is that it helps to build stronger bones. This is important because stronger bones means a decreased chance of injuries.

SIDE EFFECTS OF YK-11

There is not a lot of info regarding the side effects of this SARM, simply because it is still early in its research phase. Our main source of information about the side effects of YK-11 is what is reported by users.

SUPPRESSION

The number one side effect is suppression of the natural testosterone production, which is at you would expect from a steroidal SARM. Most users end their cycle with a PCT.
