Question for DNP gurus

Is this correct?
The advantage of DNP is that I can cut bodyfat faster and retain more muscle, than I would by reducing calories and increasing output.

That's the aim and generally yes it could be true but there is nothing stopping you retaining all muscle with no dnp and simply reducing calories and increasing output. DNP will get you there faster but it has other uses. Your diet, output and cycle (if any) will have more effect on how much muscle you retain regardless of dnp. I would always still recommend cardio (and increasing output) regardless of drug usage. Although with everything in the mix you have to be extra careful not overdoing things because it will increase the chances of losing muscle simply because your output (calories burnt) is much greater. Try not to overcomplicate things and if you ever use dnp just make sure your protein is high. But sure someone could be following a good protocol and nearly there and just adding 1 dnp into the mix could be enough to get them where they need to be without doing anything else but diet and training always comes first.

Dnp would be a great for a 7-10 day mini cut during an offseason to cut fat fast and restore insulin sensitivity

I do this 2-3 times/year

What's your diet and activity level during this time ?
What's your DNP dose ?
How much fat loss at the end of that 7 days.

is the whole cataract thing still real? that's the only reason i haven't tried low dose dnp yet.

would a product like this help with that?

Both my parents had cataracts

Both sets of grandparents had em

So I reckon my fate is sealed.

It’s a simple procedure

Depends on circumstances, I always prescribe dose to requirements.

A quick 5 lb drop could be 250/day, 2,500 cals, normal activity.

A heavy cut could be 500-750/day, 2,000 cals, a lot more LISS and less lifting.

Not to hijack the thread but was wondering what everyone’s thoughts are on using the sauna while on DNP. I have started doing sauna followed by cold plunging and am getting ready to start a low dose (200mg daily) DNP run to really shred up for a trip. Wondering if during this time I should drop my sauna sessions? I can’t see at that dose and low relative time in the sauna being an issue but thought it worth seeking other opinions.

definitely no sauna IMO

What other fat burners are there that are better than clen besides dnp?

I said fat loss agents, not fat burners that imply lipolysis or thermogenesis as the primary mechanism. Superior fat loss agents include GLP-1 & GIP agonists.

I like to kick off a contest prep with 200mg eod DNP. I will typically run this for 2-3 weeks. I would say it cuts my dieting in half for that period, meaning I lose 4-6 weeks of dieting worth of fat. 100mg ed or 200mg eod is very effective if nutrition is on point.

Any sides at that dose

Depends on sauna temp + time. It’ll be miserable, but it’s not like you’re trapped outdoors for hours in 100+ degree heat. You can just… walk out of the sauna if you start feeling uncomfortable.

That being said, you can probably just stick with the cold plunge while on DNP. Sauna health benefits are great but it’s not like they really add to fat loss.

Very few. Sweat a little more, mild night sweats, that’s about it. Very tolerable.
