Alright guys I'm interested in how many of you have done dnp and what were your results/experience like? How did you diet during? Before anyone starts chiming in saying don't do it blah blah. I've used it 3 times just curious to see how peoples experiences were!

my experience was actually bad. i had terrible sides that lasted a long time after i stopped to. i did it right with properly dosed caps. it just didnt agree with me i guess.

Did you get the desired result you wanted and what if any other compounds were you running along with it? Could this have made the sides worse?

I started dnp 2 weeks ago at low dose and 0 carbs with 3 days of depletion prior to use. Starting weight before dieting was 228 starting weight before dnp use was 213 currently at 195 and holding a ton of water. The first 9 days were ran at 250mg I experienced heat but nothing crazy slept with a fan and drank 2 gallons of water each day I noticed a huge difference in leanness after 7 days then week 2 the dnp bloat came with a vengeance. Day 9 I upped to 500mg per day like I did last time and started getting a lot hotter more often, discomfort all day pretty much. Out of breath a lot easier. I kept my training intensity high regardless of the major fatigue but I attribute that more to being depleted and going 0 carbs. Diet was clean clean clean. I didn't watch my cals too closely but I know I didn't exceed 2000 cals per day. Best advice is to drink water until you can't anymore. Days 13 and 14 I bumped to 750 I strongly advise not taking more than 250mg prior to bed those nights were a sweating hellish experience as I sit typing this I'm pouring sweat still. Working in a hot factory doesn't help. I added carbs back today pre workout, let's just say a cup of oats and a banana never tasted so good. Surprisingly I had tons of energy and got a massive pump and did t experience any unusual heat like most would after consuming carbs. I feel like shit at 750 mgs and will continue for 2 more days and drop dnp completely. I don't really advise going over 500mg as it just makes your life hellish and not even worth the fat loss. The results produced in such a short amount of time are pretty unbelievable I will post before and after pictures a week after I discontinue use and hit my peak fat loss and water weight has dissipated

i was losing weight but i felt real sick and i was sweating bad for a long time after i stopped. im sure i was on a bunch of hormones, but it was the dnp that made me sick. i let someone else have the rest of it and he got the same good results as he always did.

I used it three times and had good weight loss from it each time. But the only time I didn't feel like walking death is when I took in most of my calories from simple sugars but the weight loss was not as great. I am the type that I don't comment about something unless I have tried it.
I can only tolerate it in the much cooler months due to sweating so bad at night.

I'm yet to try the carb approach on it. I don't plan to use it very often if maybe once a year maybe not even that. I known George Farrah has his guys do a ton of carbs on it to take advantage of the insulin spikes and the shuttle effect but then again not sure if he was having them use exogenous slin or not. There has to be an optimal way to use it and not suffer but in my opinion a couple weeks is plenty or low dose for longer duration. I can't wait to be done with it lol
i ran it before...just to try it..was ok..made me stink and sweat more then i cared for...

For those that have tried it, have any of you done low dose for a longer period of time like Romano used to advocate or mostly just short duration normal to high dose?

Besides upping my dose for those 5 days I decided to come back down to low dose for the remainder of the run it was too much to handle I was waking up soaked. Other that this will be a 21 day run at low dose and it's seemed to work I added carbs the last couple days and my weight dropped significantly to 194 19 total lbs already and I have 5 days left and that's not even counting the water weight I'll drop

Horrible, never doing it again. I'm disappointed in myself for just trying it, that's how much I regretted. Also people like shelby or meadow don't even have their clients running it. I'm talking they advice against it and I know a lot of other pros that do the same. When a pro bodybuilder says fuck that, or lets stay away from that, then you know you should stay away from it.

Yeah it's safe to say that my experience this time around was brutal and I probably won't touch the stuff again. The way it works in theory is phenomenal but is it worth the weeks in hell? Guess depends on the person. Weird though I haven't heated up from the carb intake at all.

Looks good now. In theory you should look better a few weeks after you come off because of water retention. I always lost weight even after I was done taking it.

Thanks man, yeah dropping my test and coming off dnp and I'll probably shed 10lbs of water weight easy so I guess I'm probably a little leaner, abs are still watery and I feel the bloat I can see in my ankles and hands I'm holding water big time.

Really don't get why you ran dnp without carbs. Defeats the purpose really. You basically decided to do a show too late then half assed the research on a very powerful diet aid that could of killed you. Adding carbs post dnp will have you retaining water due to your glycogen stores being depleted for so very long. You're going about this in a backwards approach. Good luck.

I respect your opinion and what you have to say without a doubt but why does running it with no carbs defeat the purpose? My cousin is a Dr. With an exercise physiology degree and did multiple research papers on dnp I followed his direction. I'm not saying he knows everything or that he is a competitive bodybuilder but I trusted his advice and this is my third run with it and has worked well each time. So it's a learning experience it's not gonna be the end of the world if I can't compete in the show because I'm not on point. If it comes to the point where I'm not ready to compete then I'm okay with that.

For the record I did take your advice and add carbs but I kept them super low. Anyway thanks for the reply man. You're a very knowledgable guy. Keep commenting on my threads!

According to this, the carbs are not needed for dnp to work.

Yeah and through the grapevine this is why george farrah has his guys on like 600-1000 grams of carbs a day because of the DNP he has them taking.

Because of the dnp, or because they can get away with eating it on the dnp?
A lot of coaches have their guys on high carbs, regardless.

I think it's more to get the shuttle effect of the insulin without gaining a single ounce of extra fat. Nonetheless the no carb approach worked amazing for me and adding in moderate carbs after use has got me even leaner. The whole notion of more heat=more results is bullshit. DNPs thermogenic properties are very little of what makes this compound shred all that fat in no time

I agree with you here. The carbs just make it a little more tolerable and I was only taking 400 grams of carbs per day.

Be careful it creeps up quickly. I'd give it 3-4 days before going up again.

I would definitely give the first few days a run at low dose and gradually work up the half life is long I don't think there is a definite number proven but 250 isn't really 250 after a few days 500 will hit you and you'll think you can't take it but give it a bit and stick out the heat because you will eventually get used to 500 I ended with a few days at 750 and it was rough to say the least but the end result is amazing as I'm losing the water retained from my run I seem to be getting tighter everyday. I would advise using an ECA stack once you feel that lethargic feeling that dnp gives you, it made my workouts 100 times better and kept my energy levels high. Good luck and add to the post with your results and your whole run id love to hear it man

I'm on day 2 and feeling VERY lethargic. I just took a nap after I trained, which I never do. Maybe it's just coincidence, I dunno.
Question about water, should I make it a point to get in as much as possible? I'm not the type of person who walks around with a gallon of water at all times. Pretty much just drink when I'm thirsty.

Did you carb deplete before starting?
glad you asked, yes you need to up your water intake a lot. I don't do the gallon thing either I have a liter sized bottle and I make sure I drink at least 8 of them, I suggest having a liter before bed and when you wake up with dnp you have to stay as hydrated as possible. Your body temp is gonna increase as you continue the cycle I would also keep an eye on that when you increase the dose. When it seems like you just can't take the heat grab another fan lol sleeping is the hardest part you'll be changing your sheets often.

No, I didn't carb deplete. I always eat a high protein, moderate carb, low/mod fat diet. Maybe I'm tired today from the heat....it's like 90 outside.
I will make it a point to get more fluids in. I'm horrible with that. Bad habit of drinking only when I'm thirsty. I would estimate I get a 100+ ounces in daily but I will bump it up.

Definitely keep me updated on your progress I want to see different results with different diets, yeah man make sure you bump the water intake up no doubt the thing is your body will prob sky ask for it whether you like it or not lol the dry mouth during night is terrible of wake up and chug water like my life depended on it haha. Keep updating bro

Did you take your temp while on dnp? Curious as to how much it went up.
I'm still on 250mg day of the crystalline and I'm in the low 99's. I feel very warm though, in constant sweat.

06-18-2014, 04:40 PM
Yeah I got up to the high 99s at 500mg I didn't take my temp at 750. The sweat will be pretty constant and bad during sleep another reason to keep the water intake high

Yeah man from my experience doesn't matter what time of year whether it was winter or summer I was miserably from the heat either way lol. This run was a bit worse because my A/C took a shit and not to mention I work in a factory with no air flow whatsoever and of course the machinery is at about 180 degrees at some parts lol hang in there keep the fans running and the water at all times haha

Telkins, what was your workout routine like on DNP? I'm actually surprised you don't look as flat as I would have thought in your pics while on it.
Two and a half weeks in. Dropped a ton of fat, but holy shit I'm flat as a board. I really haven't been restricting calories or carbs.
3 weeks done. Fat loss is amazing. Muscles feel small/flat. Hot all the time and in a sweat. Around 3am is gets bad at work.
My appetite is crazy. Feel hungry all the time. And whatever I eat just goes right through my digestive system. My stomach never gets backed up with food. Diet has been far from super clean.

No calorie deficit but I cut carbs completely and ate a high protein high fat diet I used it to prep for my contest which was last night I ended up winning so it did the job! After stopping dnp use I added carbs back in and went into a calorie deficit decreasing cals each week as well as calorie cycling. Worked amazing, I added clen and t3 after dnp to continue fat loss along with the deficit.

I kept my routine the exact same although the loads decreased I tried to keep it as heavy as possible and made sure to do at least 7-8 reps a set. I did no cardio while on dnp bur pretty much kept the routine the same.
Had to get off the DNP today because I became sick. Since I work in a hospital I went into the ED at the end of my shift because my throat is so sore. Turns out I developed thrush. No idea how....if your immuno-compromised it can happen. My white cell count is 16k.
Anyway, all other bloodwork in perfect after four weeks of dnp. Only thing I need to worry about is polycythemia. My H&H is way up so I think I'm gonna donate blood.

I know this is really old so you may never read this, but in case you do, DNP increases hematocrit?

Thought so. TRT makes me need to donate blood at two different blood banks every 56 days. It's odd because TRT increases my hematocrit more than tren and higher doses of test combined.
Just a heads up. Stay away from dinitromelt, he has scammed me.
Just a heads up. Stay away from dinitromelt, he has scammed me.
Just to make things clear. Dinitromelt has scammed me. Dinitro is a good guy and has been trying to make things right for me. Dinitro is a supplier for Dinitromelt
Just want to give an update.
Dinitro has been emailing me and feels so bad about what dinitromelt did, that he is personally replacing my order for free. And he will no longer be supplying dinitromelt.
I was blown away that he offered to do this. What a great guy to deal with.
Avoid dinitromelt at all costs, if you want DNP order from Dinitro himself.
It was not for me. I got all of the sides and very little of the benefits, if any. I took one cap every 36 hours because it was about all I can handle. I don't really tolerate stimulants very well in general.

DNP isn't a stimulant and shouldn't act as one if you got any side effects of a stimulant you may want to check your supplier. The thing with DNP is if you can't last at least 10-14 days IMO you probably won't reap the benefits especially at a lower dose like 200-250 a day but like you said it's not for everyone
I ran dnp at 500mg/day, and at 250mg/day. I much prefer 250 daily. I'm not a ball of sweat all day, and weight still drops off without even trying. I like running the dnp a bit longer as well.

I agree 3-4 weeks low dose with solid diet and you can actually do some cardiovascular without feeling like you're going to die
I think I may try an 8 week run at 250/day.

Telkins- was just looking at your progress pics and you looked awesome. Nice job, man.
Do you think that the DNP got your conditioning to a point that you would not have been able to get to without it?
I've never tried it and probably never will but I'm curious to hear (from those who have) if you think it was worth it.

I think that would be a great run you may not even need 8 maybe closer to 6 but that's something you'll have to decide on the way!

Thanks man I really appreciate that
I didn't use DNP throughout my entire prep if I remember correctly I stopped about 3-4 weeks out
The DNP put me in a position to be able to carve out the last little bit of fat and helped my conditioning from my starting point but I don't believe that I achieved my final look from the hard diet cardio and the clen and t3 I added after DNP use.
The results I had could have been attained without the DNP I think DNP just put the process into overdrive and sped things up a little bit. If I had used it through the entire prep I think I would've achieved a different look. I do believe it was worth it for me because the pros outweighed the cons and the sides werent as horrific as some people experience I will definitely use DNP in the future. It was definitely an aid in the process but nothing that couldn't be achieved with a long process of diet and cardio.

Thanks, bro. Appreciate the honest answer.
I'm probably done competing (haven't been on stage since 2008) but am always interested in hearing the different ways guys go about getting in shape. It's one of my favorite things about this site.
Keep us posted on your progress and best of luck. Stay healthy!

unless i need to shed fat fast i prefer it at 200mg or even 100mg a day........low sides and you still lose the fat

Source matters a lot, probably more for dnp than ant other common bodybuilding compound. I've run from 3 different sources with "chemical" and "crystal" forms. Cheap chemical made me feel like death at 400 mg/day. High quality (expensive) crystal from top notch supplier was very tolerable at 500 mg/day. Able to keep normal routine, cardio. Just run in winter and wear shorts

Well this run was so miserable side wise for me I didn't even bother logging or taking pics.
First 10 days were 250mg a day days 11-22 were 500mg a day
Total of 25lbs dropped
SW:227
Ending weight: 201
After carving back up and adding call slowly sitting at a fairly full and resonably lean 213lbs. I added back some bf but plans changed and pushed contest date back so this really was just experimentation with a dnp with higher carbs run. I definitely didn't lose as much fat with higher carbs on dnp. 0 carb runs have always been the most successful that'd from experience not opinion
