Hi everyone. I plan on using DNP for the first time soon. 10-14 days @ 250 mg/day. I will not be using more than that daily dosage.
I will be in a caloric deficit, and only consuming carbs pre & post workout. But, I haven't found a solid diet plan for when I come off DNP...
So, how do most of you generally like to re-incorporate carbs and calories into your diet when you finish using DNP? Incrementally over X number of days, etc? Please share, thanks.
There is no set plan but generally speaking I like to gradually lower calories (carbs) as I diet down. After time I personally like to start carb cycling. Now for DNP I usually recommend guys add it in at the end of their diets. So they diet down and get fairly lean and in the final push they add the DNP in changing nothing else and going from there. Then gradually lowering carbs until they are at very low (50g for example) or even trace/no carbs for the final 1-2 weeks. They should be shredded at that point and once they drop the DNP I would recommend carrying on with the same diet to allow any water retention to fall off. Then after a short time I would very gradually start to reintroduce carbs back into your plan. That could be just pre workout for a few days then post workout then smaller amounts into your other meals so you slowly start to fill out. Now if guys have a particular date they want to look their best that changes things slightly but I would do things similarly to what I just posted.
I don't know anything about you. I don't know if you are 10% or 30% body fat right now. I will state so many rebound hard on DNP so fix your diet, lose body fat and get into a good routine then add the DNP in. For you the most important thing is having a clear goal of how lean you want to get. People use DNP for many different reasons and many often don't fix their bad dietary habits before adding it in. It's also very different if someone is using it to get to 15%, 10% or 5% body fat. The most important thing is having that clear goal and staying consistent and getting as lean as possible. You can bump carbs back in fast but for most that is not the best way and I would recommend just slowly reintroducing them. Add them back in the way you took them out. If you get lean enough once you start adding carbs back in you will fill out and tighten up at the same time and the results can be incredible.
