XTEND Original BCAA Powder Lemon Lime Squeeze | Sugar Free Post Workou

Customer Reviews

Received the wrong flavor: ain't even mad! Lol...I was so excited to try this when I got it in the mail today, that I dropped a scoop of the powder into my water and rushed to my university (I was in a hurry, as it was the first day back with new classes, bad traffic, and parking). After class, I headed to the gym. I had tried it in the car, and was blown away by the flavor. It was so tasty and refreshing that I wanted to drink the whole thing like a regular drink, but I knew I should save it for during the workout.I will say that as I drank this throughout my workout, I did feel pretty good compared to other workouts I've had. I don't know at this point if it was solely the BCAA powder that my muscles feeling good after a lot of work, but drinking this during my intense upper body workout was a heck of a lot more rejuvenating than just plain old water.Now the whole time I had been telling my guy friends about this, I was telling them the wrong flavor! I didn't realize as I had walked out of my house that Amazon had sent me the wrong flavor.... I got Mango. Now, I'm not actually disappointed by this. My first time trying this product, I was completely in love with the flavor. But I didn't read the label. What I had actually ordered was Blood Orange...! At least I know I like mango....On here it says that mango is like, 50 cents more expensive than the blood orange? Give or take a few cents. Whatever. I guess I'll order blood orange again and hope they send the right one. But as of now, your girl is drinking mango flavor and loving it. I seriously wish I could drink this all day, but that is not the cost effective way to use this.I will say that in terms of potency in flavor, I used the maximum recommended amount of water to mix this with (it says anywhere between 8-16oz, so I did ~16-17oz) and the flavoring is pretty strong. If you don't like this sweet, you can always dilute it more... I think I'll be doing that a little bit more to see just where my taste buds enjoy it most. 514 Year User - Your guideline to flavors!I've been using Xtend since 2004 and have tried many flavors, and I'm guessing even if you've used the product you're wanting to know which one to order. I'll give you a quick guide as I swear by this product and genuinely want Scivation to do well.God Tier - WatermelonWatermelon was the first flavor I've tried and it's simply the best. After I try a flavor I inevitably end up back with Watermelon. It's refreshing and tastes great. I've ordered it maybe 20+ times.Best of the Rest Tier - Blue Raspberry, Pink LemonadeBoth flavors might be a bit tart at first but it doesn't take long to fall in love with either option. I've ordered Blue Raspberry the second most, and although it's a newer flavor it's easily my second favorite.Good But Not Great Tier - Blood Orange, Lemon Lime, Strawberry Kiwi, Green Apple, Grape, Fruit Punch, OrangeAll of these options are as advertised. They're fun selections to try, but honestly I've only ordered each one once. If I have to give the nod to the best it's probably Fruit Punch. I would recommend ordering the 30 serving for each to see which one if your favoriteNever Again Tier - Freedom IceI was so excited to try this, rocket pops are delicious so naturally Freedom Ice would be too. In reality you can only taste the lemon, it's very tart and the bottle was a chore to get through. 5New formula is horrible.This was absolutely favorite for about two years. Watermelon and mango no better tasting BCAAs out there. However, i can only assume something in their product was banned calling for a new formula. Im not sure what they were going for, but if it was original flavor with an equally noticeable taste of chapstick, which is the only way I can describe the new after taste, they absolutely nailed it. I reordered another tub hopping it was a bad batch, nope just a bad new flavor. Im going to have to try nutrabio, and kaged muscle bcaas and hope it comes close to the old formula i loved. Would have bought 5 or 8 tubs of the old stuff if i new this was coming. Seems like this happens to allot of great supplements. Ill check back in a year or so to see if they fixed this. Aaaaw well. 1Grape is yummy but PLEASE REMOVE the artificial dye!I would give this 5*'s based on taste alone, but I can't because I do not understand why a food for health would include artificial colors. It is banned in Europe. It does NOT affect the taste. It is poison. I realize that you have an alternative with no dyes but it doesn't taste as good. PLEASE REMOVE THE DYES from all your products. No one needs to see purple or pink or blue. Or add some beetroot power or something. Red dye 40, etc doesn't belong in our bodies. I am not even complaining about the sucralose, just the dye. Thank you. 4Mine no longer has NSF on the labelI have been buying these for a long time, and I just opened and started using this last shipment. I immediately noticed it has a funny taste unlike any Scivations before that I've had; all of the same flavor coming to me from the Subscribe and Save.I opened it up and it smells strongly like flour...Then I noticed it is no longer sporting the "NSF" logo, even though their Amazon sales page has a misleading picture of the NSF logo among the pictures they have listed of the product.I cancelled my Subscribe and Save and will be immediately purchasing from another company.Pay attention. 1FAKEI have been using Xtend BCAA's for years. I am a bodybuilding competitor so I buy usually 2-3 a month. This last container I got does not taste legit. It has a sharp bite to it and does not mix the same. Considering I have had this flavor container at least 25 times this year, I KNOW something is wrong with it. Customer service said I had to return this item before receiving a refund. I would have hoped by looking at my purchase history they would have agreed that perhaps I was right and not hold my funds for several days because of a tainted product. 1Great when diluted much more than directedThis stuff mixes very easily (much easier than any whey protein powder, for example), and the mango flavor tastes good if you ignore the directions. I first tried it with 1 scoop in 12oz of water, and it was like a liquid Jolly Rancher, borderline too sweet for my tastes under any circumstances and definitely far too sweet for something I'd want to drink during a workout. I've found that 32oz (just short of 1L) of water is necessary to dilute 1 scoop to my taste, and at this dilution the mango flavor is very enjoyable. It's also a more appropriate amount of water for my workouts.I find this stuff really helps in the second half of my workouts. I feel a "second wind" about halfway through and that makes the rest of it less of a struggle. I also don't feel as depleted and exhausted at the end, and the recovery is quicker. 4Bad Batch perhaps / wrong flavor!?I've been buying this same product and SAME flavor for the last few years (Watermelon). For some reason, the latest canister I received has a completely different taste! Wondering if anyone else had the same issue? A friend of mine reached out to me and told me she received hers and it tastes funny. I said MINE TOO! So odd! We were wondering if it was just a bad batch/lot? It tastes more of like a fruit punch, a little bitter, and hard to drink for me! I use this every day (until now), and am contemplating ordering a new one because I'm worried the next one will taste exactly the same and I'd be disappointed again. 1Product gets lower every order..Each order gets lower every order and I m am suspecting that they are saving costs by filling the container half-way. I ve been aLoyal customer for over 6 months. I m disappointed. 1Works for older exercisers, too.A lot of supplements make claims about effects that are not immediately, if ever, observable. This is not one of them. When I first started taking this, I immediately noticed that I could go longer during cardio/strength oriented routines such as P90x and Insanity. I continued to drink this as my workouts evolved to running and weight lifting. Despite always being a terrible runner (I simply never felt that "runner's high", was never able to run very far, and was usually miserable) my runs, while never really increasing too far in distance, seemed to require less effort, making them more tolerable.But the real difference, came in my weight training. Being 44 years old, I was surprised at how quickly I went up in weights, how muscular I was getting, and how little soreness I had. I've lifted weights on and off for nearly 30 years, and suddenly I was lifting, in some cases, more than I ever had. Now, full disclosure: shortly before I started using Xtend, I also began taking creatine. This absolutely resulted in a strength and muscle gain. So once I started taking Xtend, I wondered how much of my performance gains I could attribute to the creatine. I felt the cardio-related gains were definitely the result of the Xtend, but the strength gains could have been the continuing results of the creatine.UNTIL I stopped taking Xtend. That was about a month ago, in part due to budgetary restraints and partly because I wasn't sure anymore if Xtend was really helping my time in the gym all that much. In the past month, however, the weight I lift in many of my exercises has slowly dropped, my endurance has decreased (I'm more sluggish and my workouts simply seem more daunting), and worst of all, I'm feeling my age. My elbows and knees in particular are sore for days after a workout, whereas before there was virtually no soreness.I believe in supplements, but rarely have I found one that has shown so much observable evidence of its effectiveness. This past month, much to my surprise, has proven to me just how effective this product is, and I will absolutely be including this in my next supplement order with Amazon.UPDATE 2-6-14: I purchased this again, and sure enough, my workouts are easier, I am much less sore, and am considerably stronger. This confirms what I already believed. This stuff just works. 5
