How to Use SARMS

As all bodybuilding products go, there seems to be a lot of confusion in our industry about using different types of chemicals. We have such a myriad of drug cocktails at our disposal that it becomes a difficult task to know how to use each one. The biggest hurdle is pinning down (pun intended) the right method of ingestion for the particular chemical you are going to use. Today, I'll do my best to explain how to properly use SARMS.

Improperly Administering SARMS

Sublingual Administration

Sublingual administration of any drug is a way to administer the chemical by placing it under your tongue. Sublingual literally means “sub” (under) and “lingual” (tongue); of course, it's a rough translation. With SARMS, like with all research chemicals, sublingual administration is not advised because potent SARM mixes can burn slightly after you place them under your tongue. It's uncomfortable an doesn't feel great, so it's not a popular method for sarm use.

Intramuscular injections (IM) and Subcutaneous Injections (Sub-Q)

Intramuscular injections are not possible with research chemical SARMS because they are not sterile and made for oral use only. You should never inject SARMS under any circumstances. Think of it this way, would you inject Anavar? Unlikely, as it wasn't meant to be injected. It's an oral steroid. The same logic applies to SARMS. They are oral chemicals and should not be injected.

Topical or Transdermal

SARMS do not come mixed with any transdermal carrier agents, so they aren't supposed to be used as a transdermal. There are cases of guys mixing SARMS with DMSO and doing transdermal mixes, with great results. However, that's not the mainstream view on the usage of SARMS. I don't suggest transdermal and topical use due to: possible waste of product, allergic reactions to transdermal carriers, rashes, and the general inability of most users to properly mix a transdermal agent.

Proper Administration of SARMS

Oral Use

The best way to use SARMS is via oral intake. What does that mean? Well, you have a few options with oral use of any kind of chemical.

• Option 1: Squirt the liquid SARMS into your mouth and chase it down with some juice.
• Option 2: Mix the SARMS with juice or your favorite energy drink and down it as a cocktail.
• Option 3: Drink the SARMS straight up (squirt into mouth like Option 1) and eat a piece of fruit.

In my view, the best option is #2. I found that mixing SARMS with juice in a cup like a cocktail delivers the easiest formula that you can drink without tasting the actual chemical compound. All you end of tasting is the Cranberry juice (my favorite). Though, you guys might find other juices you love as an alternative mix.

Disclosure: I do not own any stocks in Cranberry Juice producers. 🙂
