Been researching a lot and interested in any anecdotal DNP experiences. I absolutely despise long term dieting because more time shrinking = less time growing and I've always approached dieting in extreme fashions. I overdid my last bulk (first cycle) and managed to clean bulk from 200 to ~275 in 5 months. Pretty much went from skinny bitch to the Incredible Bulk (I'll attach pictures). Then I dieted down to 225 over 3 1/4 months ending up leaner than at the beginning of that bulk just on TRT. I'd like to try a new protocol this this time for the cut though involving DNP. I reckon I can bulk for 24 weeks which will ramp up my metabolism as high as it can go before going to a TRT cruise and adding in DNP, meaning I'll still have anabolics in my system for weeks from the half lives. Based on my research, 250mg a day accumulates to a steady state concentration of 675mg over 6 days which will increase BMR by x1.675 - x2. My BMR currently based off one of those shitty calculators is 2250 (likely hundreds higher) so were talking 3750 - 4500 before accounting for additional energy expenditure. I believe my BMR will increase much more than this because I was not gaining weight at 6000 calories on my previous bulk past 260 and now I'll be heavier while using more anabolics by the end of the bulk so I'm thinking around 4500 - 5250. Then we add the additional energy expenditure so lets estimate additional 2250 calories and the total TDEE is 6750 - 7500kcal. If I ate 3500 calories a day, I'd lose 7 - 8lbs a week while hardly even dieting compared to some of my previous efforts. Plan would be to run 4 weeks straight before dropping it and assessing results. Based on this rough draft, does this sound in line with your experiences on DNP? Please feel free to add any relevant info, stories, or advice (or call me a retard).
