DNP and gear at same time

austinfire · Mar 10, 2011

Is it a waste of gear while doing DNP? Seems no gains will be made while cutting, and the DNP has anticatabolic effects, yet I've seen posts that people are running test, tren, etc...at same time, seems unproductive, am I wrong?

I ran it on a cruise dose and maintained my gains and strength. Not sure how it would be off gear completely

It is basically a waste of gear.

Your body will be so intent on fat loss, your energy and glycogen will be low, so not really any new muscle will be made.

Youll maintain though.

Focus on the DNP/fat loss.

Save the gear for after.

I always run DNP while I am on gear.
Gear like test is so cheap, I don't really consider it a waste (even though I am not growing while on DNP).
I feel it can't hurt to try and hold onto some mass while my body is doing
everything it can to burn fat.
Last time around I even did IFG1 while on DNP.... and I stayed much fuller, didn't have that complete flatness that I usually get on DNP.

I rarely go over 500mg dnp, usually only 250 per day. I can still maintain and have even gained strength on the lower dose, so I figure gear thrown in isn't a bad idea.
