Ryan García tests positive for Ostarine

Ryan Garcia is attracting a lot of attention lately because he failed a doping test due to the use of Ostarine. 

Ryan García is one of the most famous boxers today, known for his recent victory against Devin Haney, a fight in which he won more than 50 million dollars. 

What is Ostarine? 

Ostarine is the most famous and used SARM nowadays, and is one of our customers' favorites. It improves strength, increases fat burning, has anticatabolic properties and can help you recover from an injury. 

In terms of side effects it has very few, any type of stress that it can cause to the liver can be easily solved by taking NAC or TUDCA and the suppression of testosterone levels is very mild, taking DHEA, enclomifene or a PCT supplement could solve it. 

Why would Ryan Garcia use Ostarine? 

Simple, in the world of boxing you have to lose a lot of weight to be able to compete, when losing weight fighters usually lose a lot of muscle and are quite weakened for the competition, taking Ostarine could prevent muscle loss by being in very good physical condition ready for the fight. 

Furthermore, if Ostarine is used correctly, it may not give a positive result in doping controls, since unlike other PEDs it has a very short detection period. Therefore Ostarine is the perfect SARM for any athlete who wants to improve their performance, increase their strength and muscles while reducing fat levels.

Ryan García denies the use of Ostarine 

Obviously Ryan García has denied having used Ostarine, which is quite rational given that a positive doping test would mean a fine and a suspension from competing for a period of time.

From my point of view it is obvious that he has used Ostarine, if we compare his physical condition in this fight VS the fight against Gervonta “The Tank” Davis we can see a big difference, Ryan justifies this difference by saying that he cut less weight, weighing three pounds per above the maximum weight allowed. This explanation could be valid, but given that fighters after the weigh-in usually eat and drink in large quantities, gaining several kilos of weight between the weigh-in and the fight, it does not make sense that he decided to weigh more before the fight, taking a self-imposed “fine.” of 1.5 million dollars. 

From my point of view this weight difference was not related to increased glycogen or water levels in the body, but rather to an increase in their muscle mass levels, which could have easily been caused by the use of Ostarine, which would have made him gain more muscle mass than desired, making him unable to lose this “extra” weight (losing glycogen and becoming dehydrated is a simple way to reduce weight before a weigh-in, but muscle cannot be lost quickly ) before weighing.
