Greetings everyone, I've been lurking here for quite some time trying to gather as much information as possible on the subject of AAS as well as ancillary compounds. My question is this: When and for what exact purpose is ok to start using DNP?
First off, I am only 21 years old and have only been training (naturally) for a little over a year. I have no intentions of using AAS for a few years because I am still making great gains naturally. However, the worst part about being natural to me has to be cutting. I started bodybuilding at about 145 lbs and bulked for the first 8 months. Then, due to a bit of excess BF when I started and the fact that I ate a bit to much for my first few months of training in an effort to get big to fast I ended up having around 17% BF at 180ish and had to cut for 3 months to get back down to 10%. Right now I'm at about 12% BF and now with more knowledge on nutrition I should stay relatively lean during this bulk. However, I plan on bulking up to 200lbs and at that weight even with a great diet I'll probably be around 15-16% BF and have to cut for another 3 months to get back around 8-9% BF.
I would really love to run DNP at the end of this bulk in about 9 months because to me, if I can eliminate the long periods of time spent cutting, training naturally would be great. My main concern is what seems to be, at least to me, conflicting information about DNP. All the articles I've read caution on how dangerous it can be but at the same time go on about how safe it is, how there has been no evidence that is can cause cancer and how the side effects that you can get while on it will subside within a few days after coming off it.
I've been reading up on it for awhile now so I'd say I at least now what kind of cycle I'd want to run. I was thinking of running a two week cycle first at 200 mg/day just to see how I respond to it. Then, if all goes well, I would try another cycle about a month later starting at 200 mg/day for the first week, and then bumping it up to 400 mg/day for the second week to see how I respond to a higher dose.
Does this seem acceptable? What I would really like to know from some of the vets out there is at what point in your bodybuilding career is it ok start using DNP? Because if the side effects really aren't permanent and there is no long term damage than I don't see why I couldn't use this compound to shorten my time cutting each year and hopefully reach my natural weight goals a bit faster.
If you've gotten to this point thanks for taking the time to read my post and thanks in advanced for any advice you can offer me.
