Since I can't ever seem to find ANY before/after pics of DNP runs on the net, this will be my log/attempt. I will try to update this thread daily til I'm done.
Stats:
5 foot 9 and approximately? No idea... I haven't been on a scale in 6 months, but I'll let the pictures be the judge for you all. Used to be 240 pounds in 2008, and got down to 210 5 months ago. Been slowly losing ever since by eating right, and moving more. (mix between weights and cardio) Told myself I wouldn't give DNP a whirl until I got my workout & eating regimen down proper.
I know I could lose the rest doing what I'm doing, but this DNP is burning a hole in my pocket, sitting in my cupboard for the past two years, so I figured I'd do a little experiment and post up the results.
Cycle:
As Conciliator has mentioned/suggested, don't plan out your DNP cycle in stone, since it's all about assessing tolerance first. That being said, from personal experience, I'm fairly sensitive to anything new I put in my body, so I will be starting very low.
I have a bag full of two year old, black/yellow capsules @ 150mg crystal a piece. I think this comes out to 112.5mg's of actual DNP. Guy I got them from tossed a anti-moisture packet in there, lol... not sure if that helped keep them fresher or not, haha. (even in a plastic bag, this shit stained the hell out of my cupboard yellow)
So the goal is popping one 150mg cap around 1pm w/ food. I will do this for 4 days and on the 5th day, I'll assess if I want to go higher. Goal is a short 10 day cycle for now w/ hopefully no side effects.
Diet:
I do intermittent fasting, (loosely based around the leangains.com version) which may be dropped if I feel like shit on DNP. But will continue to eat super clean on a 40/40/20 split (carbs/protein/fat) which I may modify, depending on how I feel. Will eat around maintenance or slightly below. (2400-ish is my maintenance) Will keep some apples & bananas around for the fructose, which I read can help with lethargy, if I encounter any. Otherwise I will stick to complex carbs... sugar generally makes me feel like shit.
Diet will consist primarily of lean boneless/skinless chicken breast, Ezekiel sprouted grain & whole grain bread, steel cut oats, tuna, cottage cheese, a lot of salad, almonds, almond butter & almond milk primarily. I'll toss in some fruit as necessary.
Supplements:
Opti-Men multi
Fishoil - 3g's three times day w/ meals
R-ALA - 100mg's three times a day w/ meals
Acetyl-L-Tyrosine - 300mg's once in the morning
Acetyl-L-Carnitine - 500mg's three times a day
Vitamin E - 1000mg's @ night w/ last meal
Vitamin C - 1000mg's time released twice a day
Mega B-Complex - once a day, after first meal
Quercetin - 1000mg's twice a day
Yohimbine HCL - 15mg's first thing in the morning
Might also pickup some Glycerin & Pyruvate, we'll see...
Plenty of water, some V8 on hand, Pedialyte & Benedryl just in case.
Couple tablespoons of Brags Apple Cider Vinegar morning & night to try and maintain a good ph balance... since as I understand it, DNP makes your bodies ph balance tip towards acidic. ACV should help as a good alkalizing agent... (along with all the almonds I consume)
No EC stack... Ephedrine fucks with me bad. Never been able to handle that stuff in the past. Which is why I won't touch Clen. So just coffee & Modafinil for energy. Modafinil also doubles as a great appetite suppressor.
Will take my temperature throughout the day, to make sure everything is fine. Have a blood glucose meter as well, to make sure I don't go hypo. (I'm not a diabetic...)
Plan on hitting the weights, light, 3 times a week, Monday/Wednesday/Friday... undecided on the cardio on alternate days... may leave that out.
Question:
Has anyone taken DNP on a empty stomach? What was your experience?
Before pic attached...
Even tho DNP makes you retain water, I'll still post a mid cycle pic again in 5 or so days.
