LGD-4033 (Ligandrol) is one of the most powerful SARMs for building muscle mass and strength. It selectively binds to androgen receptors in muscle and bone tissue, stimulating anabolic activity without significantly affecting other organs or causing the same level of hormonal disruption as traditional steroids.
Anabolicum – LGD 10mg is popular among bodybuilders, athletes, and fitness enthusiasts seeking quality muscle gains with fewer androgenic side effects. It is typically used during bulking or recomposition phases and is often stacked with other SARMs like Cardarine or RAD-140 for synergistic effects.
While it is non-methylated and generally easy on the liver, LGD can still cause some suppression of natural testosterone production, especially at higher doses or over extended periods.

How to administer
Take orally with water once per day. For best results, take at the same time daily. No need to split the dose due to LGD’s long half-life.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from heat and moisture. Keep sealed tightly.
Half life & detectability
Half-Life: Approximately 24–36 hours, allowing for convenient once-daily dosing
Detection Time: Detectable in WADA drug tests for up to 6 weeks after cessation
For athletes subject to drug testing, it is crucial to consider these detection times to avoid positive tests for banned substances.
