That's not answering my question though. At this point through the thread many different people have pretended that eating carbs around their workouts (not an outlandish amount but definiitely moderate) is somehow "fueling" their workouts and helping them complete them. Is that even possible?More carbs=more sweating
It's much easier tolerated with low carbs, and once your done your metabolism will return to baseline. You won't have much energy on DNP, keep dose at 200-250 MG daily.
So the idea is to deplete glycogen which will then turn to adipose tissue for more ATP. It would make no sense to eat more carbs, the DNP will turn them to heat and then go after your glycogen stores. So no I don't think the carbs will help much in the long run but temporarily of course will have to be broken down into ATP. If you were depleted it's one less step and the supplement could attack fat stores being the primary goal while running DNP.That's not answering my question though.

Exactly. The carbs are just broken down and shuttled into biochemical pathways leading ultimately to the Electron Chain Transport, where DNP does not allow the generation of new ATP and increases the supply of H+ in the intermembrane space of the mitochondria. Less ATP generated = more heat generationSo the idea is to deplete glycogen which will then turn to adipose tissue for more ATP.

Whats the dose and your bodyweightI have a bit of a dilemma. Finally got my stuff, but I'm torn with starting it now (well plus 3-4 days) or waiting until the beginning of January. I was going to have a cheat meal on Christmas so it's kind of a juggle between that and how miserable the sides would be against the possibility of starting a job in January. My jobs are all office related, but not sure how doable it is, some people's posts I've read in here suggest it is, some not so much.
Thoughts?
It would likely just be 250mg (one of the pills I've got) for the first run (was thinking 2 weeks). I'm 245 right now.Whats the dose and your bodyweight
How much did you end up losing fat wise?I would think you’d be fine. Just had my first run with dnp myself about 3wks ago. 200mg @ 265lbs, i work a physical job and at ~50 carbs a day i was fine.
You might have a little more sides being at a higher mg/kg, but i wasn’t even sweating more than normal, just felt a little hotter at times
All in all i’d say 2-3 lbs for the one week runHow much did you end up losing fat wise?
I like it higher. 250mg for 2-3 days and then 500 for as long I can tolerate. Usually about 14-16 days total. About 5 days after stopping is when the magic starts. And for me the crazy effect on insulin sensitivity lasts about a month of shredded growth.
Been using DNP a couple times a year for almost a decade and tried it several ways. Best results for me come if you can tolerate 750mg for a week or so during your 2 week run. But I’m too old to be that miserable now. Side effects from all the drugs we use didn’t even start for me until about 39. Now they’re something to consider.

caveat I've never used it before.
I used Genotec dnp. What I learned is dnp deserves serious respect, caution, and care. I did a 16 day cycle. I was planning 21 but at the end of the cycle i went to 3 caps a day and it gave me a pretty good headache and sore throat waking up in the morning. I decided 2 weeks is pretty much enough for me and I lost 15 lbs. After 5 days water weight dropped and I had lost 20. About two weeks after I had a full panel annual blood test and I noticed two things. my thyroid T3 and T4 was totally fine. And my blood sugar was the lowest I had seen it in years. Usually it sits at 95 to 100 and it was 85. Not only that but it was probably my best blood test ever due to overall health. I waited 6 weeks and decided to do a 14 day cycle. I'm ending it now but right at 1 lb per day so down 14 lbs. I've notice when ending I'm pretty excited to be done with this stuff because the sweating and heat are insane and to be very respected. I would go for a walk at work for an hour and feel like it took hours to cool down. I also noticed it really helps to drink 2 to 3 gallons of water a day. I wouldn't recommend this to any fool who does not have serious self control and awareness as it takes both. I don't think I could ever do 3 weeks this stuff is brutal but someone with a lot of discipline which is very very few could manage it carefully. I don't have access to a scale in 5 days so I will not know how much water weight drops this time. I may do one more before summer but I think I will wait 2 months as 6 weeks felt a little short for me. I do a lot of cardio usually but I would not do a lot on this stuff or approach it extremely cautiously. Everyone is different.
