Research guides

Sports Technology Labs blog

The Sports Technology Labs blog is where we write up the research behind the compounds we sell. Each guide covers what a compound is, what published studies found, what the safety data says and which of our products contain it.

Research guides on the Sports Technology Labs blog

We started the blog because most pages about SARMs and peptides are either sales copy or forum rumor. Our guides stick to what's been published. When a compound has human trial data, we say how many people were in the trial and what was measured. When it only has rat data, we say that too.

Every guide links to the matching product page, so you can check the purity figure and COA date for the batch we're selling right now. If you'd like the full certificate, email sales@sportstechnologylabs.co and we'll send it.

How we write the Sports Technology Labs blog

Each guide is checked against the original papers on PubMed before it goes live, and we link to the search so you can read them yourself. Where a study is small or only done in rats, we say so plainly. We don't give dosing advice, and we don't claim a compound treats anything. Everything we sell is for laboratory research only.

When new studies come out, we update the guide and the date it was changed. If you spot something that's out of date, tell us through the contact page.
