So I have been watch the EnhancedAthlete youtube channel. Very entertaining and interesting stuff on DNP. Are their any DNP users out there?
I never was interested in trying it because Im not that hard up for fat loss but after watch the EnhancedAthlete stuff DNP has really peak my interest.

I don't know how pure it was but it came in a black bottle no label . caps were yellow on paper in box take 1 capsule every 12 hrs .
It made me heat up inside . bp spiked for 3 weeks at times scary but in 4 weeks I lost 35 lbs . It could have been anything honestly , I was like 26 back then ...
Id like to try it again educated this time .
While on DNP cycle you need to add: Taurine 5 tabs a day and a good anti oxidant
if you have any blood pressure or heart issues never use DNP
What was your dosing like? Any change in diet? With all supps I like to do the lowest dose possible to see results.Quote:

keep electrolytes up, hydration up, and I would recommend some Taurine.
This is based off of reading I've done, not personal experience
Thanks guys iam close to grabbing some of this at 75 mg caps. Maybe a little bit more than I need.

I do know that when using this you have to be very careful with the carbs you consume in the amount of sugar so I'm trying to do a little bit more research this time the last time I was young and stupid took a bunch of this shit it worked but I think it was really underdosed or I probably be dead right nowQuote:

I'd only use it at the beginning of a cut to slash off fat while you're glycogen stores are still hefty. Diet, training, and cardio is the true trifecta.
So after reading all the info and advice I decided not to listen and buy some DNP. I ran 2 cycles of it at low doses to assess my tolerance and side effects. I had a blood test done for my health insurance during the second cycle. Interested to see if anything shows up.
First cycle was 200mg a day for 5 days then bumped to 400mg the last 2 days, for a total of 7 days. My body weight dropped from 236lbs to 231lbs. I consistently maintaining 231 for weeks after. My diet I left normal. I eat 3 meals a with a couple snacks in-between. I eat whatever my wife cooks. I wanted to see what it would do if I didn't change anything other than add DNP. The increase body temp wasn't a problem and only got really noticeable at 400mg. If the weather outside is 70 degrees DNP makes you feel like its 85-90. At 400mg it was a constant sweat for me, nothing that was unbearable. I started to feel lethargic at 400mg and got tired of that the most. Workouts were tiring but doable. I just ate a piece of fruit before I hit the gym and that helped a lot.
The second time I ran it was at 200mg every other day for 2 weeks. Other than the water retention and muscle looking flat I hardly felt any other sides. I would feel a little warm that day I took the dose but that it. I gained a pound of since i have been off. So now I am at 332lbs this morning. Once again I did not change my diet. I wanted to see what the lowest dose I could get away with and still have it work. I didn't was to diet at the same time and skew the results of the DNP. I would say I lost a little fat but not nearly at the rate of the higher dose cycle obviously. My strength is great after DNP and didn't lose anything there. I don't feel like I lost muscle size either but I can't confirm that. It was a breeze to maintain EOD dosing and with a diet or appetite suppressant fat lose would be inevitable.
I totally would run this again. Next time I will run 400mg the first 2 days to burn off glycogen stores then continue at 200mg a day or 200mg EOD depending on how I feel.
Both times water intake was high and gatorade was used every couple of days. I also took fish oil, zinc, vitamin C,D and E, ALA, and taurine for support supps.
