>>DNP & (T3)CYTOMEL . . . Reccomended?<<

This will be my second cycle on DNP, first time was a success (1 year ago).

I have read mixed feelings on the use of dnp, and cytomel together. Any takes?

Dosing: 200mg/tab.dnp & 50mcg/tab.T3

I did t3 and dnp in my first go. on my second now without it and noticing same results this far.

I wouldn't go more than a replacement dosage. Might be too catabolic if you go high t3 with your dnp cycle.

yea i remember i lost some muscle doing the t3 the first time as well as fat.

If you're gonna do dnp with T3, wouldn't it be a wise choice to add Test prop at least to stop the T3 from eating the muscle?

Good advice here.

It's not quite clear that DNP decreases endo t3 in practice. Theres a case study that's often posted as evidence for this, but I'm of the opinion that the bodybuilders in question had low thyroid levels not because of the DNP, but because they were taking T3 during their cycle. Exogenous T3 definitely will suppress endogenous production. I had a Norwegian translate the paper for me and it was unclear why they had low thyroid levels. They didn't test for reverse thyroid when they could have, which would have made the cause clearer.

I also have a friend who's a doctor of internal medicine who ran 600mg/day for 3-4 months (went from 320 lbs down to the mid 200's). He gave himself frequent blood tests and said his thyroid didn't budge. I'm just not convinced that DNP lowers thyroid levels. Even if it did, you can simply bump up your DNP dosage to keep weight loss humming along. This is what they did in the original research after they found that there was a rapidly developing tolerance to the drug in the first couple of weeks. They just upped the dosage to overcome the tolerance. No one was given thyroid, even though subjects were kept on the drug for many months at a time. I like this option because thyroid is notoriously catabolic. I think it's generally best to just leave it alone unless you're also taking AAS.

wow, 600mg/day of dnp just sounds dangerous, although, Ive taken at most 400/d. Well, from my research, Im going to conclude that DNP and Cytomel are not suggestive together. Perhaps, Cytomel solo, post my dnp cycle might be a bit better.:scratch:
