Stats:
Lose fat while building muscle (body recomp).
I want to reach around 10–15% body fat in 3–4 months and improve my overall physique.
Background:
I trained combat sports for 5 years (wrestling, MMA), so I’m not completely new to strength or conditioning.
I’ve been going to the gym for 6 months now, with proper discipline, tracking, structured programming and nutrition for the last 2 months.
My reasoning behind this stack:
From what I’ve read, S4 also works well for cutting or recomp at higher body fat levels.
But I’m open to advice here — do you think a PCT is needed at this dose/duration?
Any better suggestions, changes, or things I might be overlooking?

Planned 8-Week Cycle
- Andarine (S4): 25 mg/day
- Cardarine: 10 mg/day
- SR9009: 20 mg/day
- Calories at maintenance or a slight deficit.
My reasoning behind this stack:
- Andarine (S4): lean muscle gain, strength, improved definition
- Cardarine: better endurance & increased fat loss → harder training sessions
- SR9009: higher metabolic rate, increased calorie expenditure
From what I’ve read, S4 also works well for cutting or recomp at higher body fat levels.
PCT?
I originally planned not to run a PCT afterwards, since the cycle is relatively short and the dose isn’t that high.But I’m open to advice here — do you think a PCT is needed at this dose/duration?
Any better suggestions, changes, or things I might be overlooking?
