| I'm 41 yrs old and have been lifting for a long time. I have tried many, many different products. Other than the now banned prohormones, nothing but protein,creatine, and weight gainers (to keep my caloric intake high, as I am a hardgainer) have done much... until I tried Xtend. I tried it on a whim. I drink it during my workout (four scoops in 16 oz. water, I make it the day before as it needs to be mixed well). I've found that I can workout longer before I fatigue, and I'm not nearly as sore the next day. This is true even after I've taken several days off from lifting. Watermelon is great, I'm ordering the lemonade this time. |

| Seems like I have much better workouts when I sip on Xtend during my workout, especially tough leg workouts. It also tastes really good. I really like the grape flavor. |

| This product is amazing. I started using it when I increased my cardio. I do cardio before I lift now and then drink the orange Scivation Xtend before I lift. It works within 10 minutes. I get all my energy back and have no crash. I feel like I haven't done any cardio at all and have great lifts. |

| Great for endurance training. Also - well worth the $ to change up the proper amount of water consumption. |

| This product is awesome! It gives me the energy and amino acids I need for my workouts. It's especially good for my early morning cardio sessions. Great product, I'm an avid user and will continue to be. |

| I've only tried the Lemonade flavor. It tastes good, goes down good, digests quickly if you mix it as per instructions or a bit thinner (I prefer thinner, since I do normally experience some gastric effects from bottled recovery drinks). I keep a bottle handy for all workouts, weight and cardio and interval it with water. IMHO it works as specified on the label. |

| I really like this product. I've tried the lemonade so far. I think it's made a huge difference for me with DOMS....it did take a few weeks but since I've been using it faithfully, I've noticed quite a difference in my recovery. I agree with the other review in that you do get an after taste or feel more thirsty - but it just helps get the water down. I also prefer it chilled. |

| The best glutamine/BCAA product I have ever used! It mixes easily and really helps me to power through my workout. I do not need to use another product and I have not found one as complete as Xtend. The Lemonade taste is great, so I am trying the Apple as well! |

| An excellent recovery product - the best I have ever used! Alleviates DOMS and aids recovery between sets. Lemonade and Watermelon are the best flavors too :) |

Reviewer: William in Ohio |
| This product has a great amino acid profile and mixes easy into my waxy maize pre, during, and post workout shakes. I did not like the grape, it had too much fake grape flavor that was very distinct, so I'm trying the lemonade. They also have watermelon which I am going to try. Once I run out of my ON Tropical Punch flavored protein (that I mix in the waxy maize & xtend) I'm going to order Primaforce's WPI Watermelon flavor and mix that in with the lemonade Xtend. I think that combo will be SMASHING!! |

| When I first got Xtend (Watermelon) I thought I would be alright, but have its downsides... I haven't found one thing wrong with it yet. I found the best way to mix it is add it into a water bottle with ice cold water and shake it for a good 30 seconds. The watermelon flavor is great and I can't wait to find out what the lemonade tastes like! |

| I discovered this product browsing a site for bodybuilders. It may be good for strength training, but I find this product great for endurance training. I drink it before long runs or nordic ski activities. I also sip it if I am doing indoor activities such as spinning. I am on my third jar. Watermelon and lemonade are both good. I have not tried the grape flavor. |

| I've just started using this product and it definitely makes me feel like I have more energy during my workouts. I don't get fatigued like I do when I don't use it. Even better, it doesn't make me jittery like a lot of caffeine containing products do. The only drawbacks are that it doesn't seem to completely dissolve so there are little 'floaters' in my water bottle and it's a little too sweet for my taste (even with more water added than directed)...but it isn't so bad that I won't stop using it. |

Reviewer: A customer in Canada |
| Solid product however there's too much artificial sweeteners here. You'll feel the aftertaste for hours despite drinking a ton of water. This would have been much better product if they reduced the amount of Sucralose and Acesulfame Potassium or used Stevia instead. Will not buy this product again for that sole reason. Instead, I'll just supplement BCAAs Glutamine and CEM. |
