S23 Vs Steroids
S23 is one of the few SARMs that has shown to replicate results equivalent to that of moderate doses of DHT derived anabolic steroids.
Comparisons of S23 to a high dose of Winstrol are very common, and others have also reported it fairing very well in comparison to high doses of Masteron as well.
It seems to be consistent across the board that this is a hardener/dry compound that produces a leaner, more conditioned look to the physique.
S23 Vs Other SARMs
S23 Vs RAD140
S23 has a higher binding affinity than RAD140, is more suppressive, but will also build more muscle and strength.
With that being said, S23 is more androgenic than RAD140 and will result in more androgenic side effects.
Anecdotally RAD140 is much more androgenic than it appeared to be in its preclinical profile, however, S23 still exceeds it in terms of overall androgenicity.
S23 will also dry out the muscle more than RAD140.
Whether this is via dehydration or a direct conditioning effect this remains unknown, but pound for pound it is safe to say that S23 is a more potent anabolic and androgenic agent in general than RAD140.
S23 Vs S4 (Andarine)
S23 is purported by many to be a jacked up version of S4 without the night vision side effect.
It is true that S23 does not cause the same vision side effect as S4 and is a more potent muscle builder.
However, it also has a less favorable level of tissue selectivity than S4 and will induce far more androgenic activity milligram for milligram.
Even at what would be considered recreational high dosages, 30 mg of S23 has shown to be far more androgenic than 100 mg of S4.
In a purely bodybuilding context, S23 is the more effective SARM at building muscle, however, when it comes to tissue selectivity and fitting the description of a novel SARM, S4 significantly outperforms S23 as it acts as a full androgen receptor agonist in muscle tissue and only a partial agonist in the prostate.
S23 Dosage
Dosages of 10 – 30 mg per day are commonly used in a recreational context for muscle building purposes.
There is no established therapeutic dosage of S23.
Anecdotally, S23 is reported to show diminishing returns at dosages above 30 mg per day.
These dosages were determined by recreational users based upon personal experimentation and anecdotal experiences, and are not indicative of correct or incorrect use.
