YK11 is reported to produce lean, dry gains.
With the exception of hair loss, reports of other side effects from YK11 are typically less prevalent than with the more mainstream very suppressive SARMs.
YK11’s chemical structure differs greatly from that of SARMs and resembles the chemical structure of an anabolic steroid.
It may be more accurate to say that YK11 is a steroidal SARM, rather than to say it is a non-steroidal SARM.
Unfortunately, it is pretty unclear exactly what it is as it is very new on the scene, and most of the conclusions being drawn about this compound are just based on personal opinion rather than true science.
One thing we do know is that the unique effect YK11 has on Follistatin expression is completely unlike any SARM.
Anecdotally, YK11 exhibits a blatant anabolic effect and has muscle building potential, however, it doesn't seem to produce any mind blowing muscle growth that would not be achievable with other far more thoroughly studied anabolic agents.
Personally, I have yet to see one person take their physique to a new level solely from YK11, and it certainly has not produced any Flex Wheelers.
With that being said, without human trials there is no way to actually assess how much YK11 can inhibit Myostatin in humans (if at all), and if there is a dosage that could equate to the same level of Myostatin inhibition that a genetic anomaly with a gene mutation has.
YK11 isn’t necessarily better or worse than any other SARMs, but this is because it operates via a completely separate mechanism of inducing muscle growth.
Because YK11 induces muscle growth via a completely separate pathway than other anabolic steroids or SARMs, it would be more productive to figure out what would work best alongside it, or if it is even worth exploring in the first place, rather than if it’s stronger or weaker than other anabolics that induce muscle growth in a totally different manner.
