Have mine. Log link: http://anabolicminds.com/forum/supplement-reviews-logs/198483-osta-rx-log.html
Just got confirmation email. FINALLY shipping.
Same here. The delay has worked out ok for me because I've been sick for over a week or so - sinus infections/bronchitis SUX!
I'm still bouncing around the best way to run this. I'm going on vacation in 2 months. My main motivation for running Osta was for its joint/tendon benefits. Thought maybe I could get rid of some tendonitis and joint pain with the Osta, and then a hit a 4 week epi cycle really hard before vacation. So that would be 4 weeks of Osta at 20mg, followed by 4 weeks of epi at 30-40mg, then starting pct while on vacation. I always "peak" during the first week of pct, and then things kinda suck thru weeks 2-4 of pct.
I think most people would probably hit the epi cycle first, followed by Osta as part of their pct, but I don't know how I'm going to respond to the Osta. If I do respond well to it (some weight gain, leaning effects), then I might just buy a second bottle, and run it for 8 weeks, and drop the epi cycle until mid summer.
Also, what kind of strength gains does Ostarine typically induce?

bronchitis?! aint nobody got time for that!!
correct and our recommended dose is 30mg ED.
It looks like you changed your mind on that....
so 30mg is the suggested dose but the bottle lists it at 20mg? so a second bottle, at least, would need to be purchased? and if so is this safe to run up to 8 weeks?
sorry I meant 20mg, that was a typo.
I would buy a 2nd, but run it at suggested dose for 8 weeks.im kinda on the fence about buying another bottle - i wish there were some completed logs to reference. i may just bright the bullet and find out myself, as i feel cheated out of my first 3 weeks due to the injury.
30mg per day for 30 days (u could go up to 50mg daily), pricing is not set but MSRP will probably be around $75.99, it's an expensive compound.
I'm definitely interested in peoples thoughts on this. I love Ostarine myself (running it now actually) but if people are running this at a legit 30mg per day IT DOES CAUSE SHUTDOWN. 25mg per day from a Research company causes some shutdown so I don't see how this won't since it is the same compound. A mild PCT (not necessarily a SERM) is what I think should be used after Ostarine at these doses
I'm real excited for this. How long of a cycle do you think will one be able to run with one bottle at the rx'd dosage (30mg)? It'd be cool if the bottle had enough for at least 6 weeks. Just poking to see what your thoughts are on this or if it's too early to tell.
this is the compound we will be using: 4-cyanophenoxy)-N-[4-cyano-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-hydroxy-2-methylpropanamide)
if you know our reputation then you know our products contain what they say, EVERY compound we use gets independently tested in the USA before we make a product. yes it's the real deal, it will be a 90 count bottle, 10mg per cap, so like any product the suggested use would be 1 capsule up to 3 times daily. some may be fine at 10mg daily others might go up to 30mg or higher.
IronMagLabs is one of the few companies left pushing the envelope and putting out REAL products that work.
agreed, we are recommending 10-30mg per day.
so 3 weeks to kick in? interesting. and if they originally wanted to go 30 im guessing that its not too supressive at that dose. possible just trying to save some moolah

T-Bone said:So I guess at the last minute they decided to do 6.6mg per cap instead of 10. Boo to that.
Some interesting stuff you pulled up..I find it kinda funny they told me the 30 mg was a typo, when it clearly was not.
On another note Rick knows his osta..makes me wonder how suppressive at 30 are we talking here?
Yeah Rick did say that you wouldn't need a SERM though. Also I do find it kind of shady that at first they said 30mg and then they changed it right before releasing it. Makes me wonder if I should just save my money for protein.
Anecdotal is all one really can go by, sadly, or at least it's the best, unless you want to toss anything everyone's said out the window. I don't see a problem looking at everything skeptically, but I don't know about dismissing everything (not saying that's what you're implying). But you make a good point, a lot of us are making up a lot of stuff, but a few things that can be said about Ostarine:There really is no true answer, studies were done with 3mg. Bodybuilders are just making shyt up on the fly.
Really, 20mg should suffice, 30mg may or may not work better, who knows and it may vary due to anacdotal individual responses which is not the greatest thing to go by.
Cool news.i will note that cardio has been a breeze lately. i usually hate running.
What I find shady is the change from 30mg to 20mg, which wasn't apparent until after the product was released.
True. There's also the fact that they decided to pack extra stuff in the ostarine tabs to make sure it made it to the shelves, so plans overall were changed. I don't think it's unusual for that to happen. Can you elaborate on what you think is shady about the change from 30mg to 20mg? Is it the rep changing what he said to make it seem like he meant 20mg the whole time? I can't comment on his intentions.I dont think its a big deal, the label is just a suggestion, the user is free to do what they want. I wouldnt get too caught up in that, its not a big deal. The product is there nobody has to buy it.
They may have realized that it would be better marketed at a certain price for a certain quantity and most importantly make it profitable. This is one scenario. Also, as I have stated all these dosing protocols are going by by the fly, maybe they decided to go at a lower effective dose to consider limiting potential sides with the consumer.
Its kinda like the 11-oxo days, if you really wanted some anabolic response you would be buying 6-7 bottles for a 4 week cycle although we all know the minimum suggested dose still had an effect.
Anyways I really wouldnt worry about it, you can take 10mg a day and get an effect.
Edit: Above is strictly my own personal opinion

Agreed. Didn't know you were running it, btw. I have been following your journal, just not for the past 5 days. Guess I'll have to check it out again!Guys, I feel like this whole situation is being blown out of proportion. Let us take a step back and look at it again.
1) If a rep did make a mistake in saying the recommended dosage is 30mg, then it was simply mistake--or possibly a reflection of his personal dosing protocol, a misunderstanding, or something of that nature.
2) If IML was initially going to role out the product at 30mg (I AM NOT SAYING THIS IS THE CASE) and later changed it to 20mg then there is nothing shady about that. There could have been a multitude of reasons for such a change. Furthermore this could have been a move to limit side effects. To quote an IM article which refers to Osta:
"SARM’s (selective androgen receptor modulators). SARMS were designed to provide steroid-like effects without the side effects found in AAS, but the true value of this compound (for PCT purposes) is found in the fact that it does not lead to suppression of natural testosterone production when administered at dosages of 25 mg per day or less (or at least not to any significant degree)." Invalid Link Removed
3) As someone else mentioned there is no one stopping you from running it at a higher dosage, however this could lead to suppression and more side effects.
As I mentioned before I am running this product, and am keeping a journal as well if anyone is interested:
