Supplement Reviews

Muscle Pharm Recon, 2.64 Lbs. - Buy 2 Get Battle Fuel FREE!, Fruit Punch
Review:
Simply put, Muscle Pharm Re-Con is the most effective post-workout supplement I've ever taken. It's completely broken me from the "oh I need 20+ grams of protein within 30 minutes of my workout".... Re-Con provides the BCAA's I need immediately and I can feel it. I take Re-Con in a shaker with me, ready to add water when I workout. Immediately upon finishing my last reps, I fill with water and consume. Doing this immediately cuts down on soreness, speeds recovery, and the Fruit Punch flavor is actually something I look forward to after a workout. It would be very, very tough to get me to ever switch.

MusclePharm Combat Powder, 4 Lbs., Banana Cream
Review:
Muscle Pharm Combat is the only protein powder I use unless I'm bulking. The Banana Cream, on it's own, is a little too sweet. The perfect blent is a 2:1 chocolate peanut butter to banana cream mix. I usually get the chocolate PB tub down to 2/3, and the banana cream down to 1/3, and mix the tubs together. The flavor is awesome, I call it the Elvis.

BSN Syntha-6, 5 Lbs., Strawberry Milkshake
Review:
BSN's Syntha-6 Strawberry Milkshake is easily the best tasting primairly protein supplement. That said, I'm pretty disapointed in the fact that it's "worse" in macros than even BSN's Dessert protein. There's 190cal / 6g fat / 16g carb / 22g protein in Syntha-6. In Dessert there's 150cal / 3.5g fat / 8g carb / 21g protein. The middle of the road ON Gold Standard crushes both of them with only 120cal / 1g fat / 3g carb / 24g protein.
BSN should release a higher quality protein or lower the price on the Syntha-6 as it's not as filtered.

MHP Up Your Mass, 5 Lbs., CinnaBun
Review:
The main reasons this product receives a low rating are taste and the amount of water and product needed for each serving. The Cinna Bun does not taste like it sounds, and it's far too sweet and has a strong clove flavor. It's nearly impossible to down all 16oz when I make this.

BPI Sports Super Pro, 3 Lbs., Cookies & Cream
Review:
This cookies n cream flavor is not tasty, you have to use a decent amount of water to get a good consistency, it's far too sweet, and I can't even drink it on it's own anymore. I have to do 1 scoop of this and 1 scoop of BSN Strawberry Milkshake just to get this stuff down.
You get what you pay for, and this stuff is not tasty.
