Understanding DNP practice

[MairUnderwood(Researcher)]

Hey everyone. One of my students (Niroshan) and I are trying to understand the practice of DNP in bodybuilding. Can you please help by correcting or adding to the below? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Sorry it is so long but we want to understand properly. Feel free to only answer part.


1. What substances should you and shouldn’t you use with DNP?

(a) What shouldn’t you use with DNP? We’ve heard alcohol, illicit drugs like ecstasy, any others? Certain AASs?

(b) What should you or do you use with DNP? Certain AASs? pre-workouts? other fat loss supplements?

2. How do you practice DNP?

From my understanding you should:

(a) probably start with a low dose first (i.e. 200mg) and slowly increase after a minimum of 4 days if you need more, up to a maximum dose around 600-800mg.

(b) not be on DNP for more than 10 days.

(c) eat mostly fat and protein, avoiding carbohydrates where possible, to avoid excessive heat.

(d) avoid using DNP before sleep so that you don’t get night sweats.

(e) use air-conditioning and cold showers to stay cool.

Is this correct? How does this align with your practices? Is there anything I missed that you might do to reduce risk?


3. What is your understanding of DNP in terms of:

(a) how it works in the body?

(b) risks and side effects?

The only people who take dnp are those who want shortcuts and those who read magic pill anecdotes on forums.
No real bodybuilder takes that fuckin garbage

You want to use something that’s used in treated wood ? Go ahead .. you’ll burn fat alright . It won’t mean nothing when it kills you

 

[gearwolf]

DNP is similar to those stomach reduction surgeries - both used by desperate fatasses, a health risk and usually end up in regaining the weight anyways

It’s my opinion from my own research and experience that night sweats are happening regardless of dosing schedule and carb intake as a daily total or timing. They may help minimize to some degree but you’re going to experience night sweats on dnp.

I also believe the best macro split is the one that you can adhere too in the face of EXTREME carb cravings at times if not down right persistently. I’ve had good experiences on dnp, I’ve had a mind boggling experience on dnp and I’ve failed miserably with dnp. For myself my logs clearly show my adherence to my calorie allowance dictated those results not my macro split. Isocaloric as suggested by @MrRippedZilla and @Eman has been the easiest split for me to adhere too.

Well, first of all. The person in question is using "asking a simple question" as a false veil. If you go back to the main forum and look.

She is claiming that she didn't know how to find "stickies." That in itself is pretty fucking stupid. That's strike one.

So, if I were to believe that she didn't know what a sticky is. The fact that Google is available for everybody to use and she could have easier Google:d "what is a sticky." That's strike 2.

3rd strike was ignoring and disrespecting the time and effort that a lot of great minds have put into this forum. This in the form of Articles, Articles that somebody has to pay for to get, as well as stickies and other threads.

There are more reasons to as well, think in the lines of why women take pics wearing little clothes.

I feel my apparent rude outburst towards her was justified. If you want to disagree that is fine.

I sincerely thanked you for providing the link while hinting at the greatness she missed.

Yes, you are doing this for my benefit...

i often find that the stuff that people publish on a topic is often different to what people actually do so I thought i would ask

 

[MairUnderwood(Researcher)]

Yes, you are doing this for my benefit...

i am actually. it is my job. i work with enhanced men and then tell their stories to the people who actually have the power to change laws and health support. it doesn't matter to me if you don't appreciate it, a lot of other guys do

thanks heaps i still want to talk to actual consumers if I can as I often find that practice differs from the ideal that is published, and from individual to individual
