Why bodybuilders use Sarms for cutting?

The purpose of cutting

Cutting, sometimes called shredding, is the process of reducing body fat while maintaining muscle mass.

The bodybuilder usually goes through a period of weight gain before cutting.

During the weight gain cycle, bodybuilder adds a high-calorie, protein-rich diet, coupled with vigorous exercise, to rapidly increase muscle mass.

At this stage, the bodybuilder takes in more calories than it burns, and these excess calories help the bodybuilder grow muscle. Some bodybuilders will add SARM to help with rapid weight gain.

At this stage of weight gain, not only muscle is added, but fat is also added.

In the subsequent Cutting Cycle, the bodybuilder needs to reduce as much fat as possible produced during the weight gain cycle while retaining as much muscle mass as possible.

Therefore, the purpose of cutting Cycle is to reduce fat.

The main ways to lose fat are to control diet and exercise.

At the Cutting Cycle, diet control is to reduce the intake of calories so that the calories consumed are less than the calories consumed.

When you don’t eat enough calories, your body uses up its energy stores. It’s easy to think of fat. Isn’t fat just the body’s stored energy?

It would be nice to burn fat directly for energy at this point. But it’s not that simple. The body is programmed to burn muscles first to gain energy. It may be that the body needs to maintain a large amount of muscle and consume a large amount of energy. Therefore, when the energy is insufficient, the body will think that its energy is not enough to support a large amount of muscle, so it is better to abandon the muscle first. In this way, it does not need to support the muscle, but also can burn the muscle for energy. We don’t know exactly what the feedback mechanism is, but that’s what the body does.

In the cutting cycle, how to lose fat without losing muscle mass is the most important thing.

At this time, what about exercise? Exercise is the only way to gain muscle. If you exercise without diet control, you will still be in the weight gain cycle, which will also increase fat.

In cutting cycle, we must control our diet and keep exercising. In this case, however, there is still a risk of muscle loss.

At this time, the experienced Bodybuilder will add supplements to help Cutting, while reducing fat, without losing muscle mass.

Sarms for cutting

Many Sarms can be used with cutting, such as MK2866, S4, LGD4033. These are true Sarms, selective androgen receptor modulators that help the Bodybuilding lose fat and maintain muscle mass while building muscle.

These real Sarms are designed to help lose fat while building muscle. There are other receptor agonists, which are classified as SARM, focus on fat loss. Such as gw501516 and SR9009.

Gw501516 is a PPARδ receptor agonist and SR9009 is a REV-ERB receptor agonist. Both control the body’s lipid metabolism, which reverses the body’s preferential use of muscle, allowing the body to burn fat as an energy source. Therefore, even if the bodybuilder consumes too few calories in the cutting phase, the body will not burn muscle, but will burn fat, provide energy and improve the body’s endurance, so that the bodybuilder can last longer exercise.
