based on what? a couple studies done after it was cancelled from further research due to all the red flags? based on some conspiracy that it was just TOO awesome for them to release so they over exaggerated possibly cancer risks? not to mention whatever studies or anecdotal experiences provided, have not been long term. no, we dont know what a lot of these do long term, but at least other sarms/supplements generally arnt breeding grounds for cancer right off the bat.
i can think of quite a few things that boost performance better. maybe less so for the endurance aspect ive heard of, but thats a pretty obscure use for it as far as how majority of people are taking it, unless theres an overwhelming amount of endurance athletes sitting on the forums here im not aware of. majority of real competing bodybuilders are already on cycles providing much more benefits that doesnt merit the possible risk vs possible marginal reward for taking gw again IMO...which is all besides the point, because id guess the majority of people taking the stuff dont compete.
not trying to sound dismissive, as i realize youre just making a point(fair enough), im just being realistic here.
