This is my first review thread, so recommendations and criticism will be accepted.
First up...Purple Wraath!
This summer my two main goals were to make a lot of money and get in top physical shape for college. Training with a powerlifting routine three days a week (5x5) and also starting Mauy Thai twice a week, I needed a solid product to help with recovery, energy and focus. That's why I chose Purple Wraath. Excellent taste, mix ability, and best of all: the results. I love being able to take two scoops for an one hour session of Mauy Thai and then two hours later not being sore and then lifting. That's also why I chose to buy a second tub.
Mixability: 10/10
Taste: 10/10
Recovery: 10/10
overall: eleventy billion/30
Green Magnitude
Before ordering GM, I was using a cheap monohydrate creatine. It was very effective, but caused my stomach to become gaseous. I was fine with this at first, but my friends weren't. I bought GM and it has been a great supplement to my training and diet. Very solid product and I haven't been expelling nasty, smelling gas (excess that's because I'm still a human).
Taste: 10/10
Mix-ability: 9/10
Strength: 10/10
Overall: 29/30
White Flood
A more controversial product that I bought a few months ago. I don't take is on a schedule like I do with green magnitude or purple wraath, because I don't have a high tolerance. I will usually take 1 to 1.5 scoops and that triggers my "kill" mode. The energy is unparalleled, and even better: I get work done after the gym. I've probably cranked out two, 5 page papers while jacked on this. However, I cannot say how much of a "pump" I get while taking this before the gym compared to not consuming it before working out.
Taste: 10/10
Mixability: 8/10
Energy: 10/10
Pumps: N/A
Overall: 28/30
*An interesting note about white flood. Many people complain about GM causing stomach problems but I have never had any problems from GM. White is what cleans out my colon. Whenever I take WF in between meals, I always have to go to the toilet. Don't know why, but I thought I'd point this out.
Sample reviews to come later! GOTTA GO!

REDuction Sample
Because this was a sample, I have limited knowledge of this product. The two pills are large but oddly smooth and easy to take down. Both pills had a raspberry after-taste that was pleasant. I didn't notice any difference from the AM pills, but I did sleep very well after taking the pm pills. Also, I didn't have any cravings for chips or snack food during the day which was positive.
Reduction is a product that I'm considering to gain lean muscle mass and keep the fat gain to a minimum.
Golden Finish Sample
A very solid post workout product that I used in place of a whey shake. I ran out of whey protein and decided to give GFH a shot. It worked very effectively being post workout and post purple wraath. I was not sore from heavy squats or any exercise at all. Another solid product from Controlled Labs. I'm going to order more whey and might pick this up."Eat or stay the **** out of the gym!"

Funny you mention that about white flood, I have been on it for around 3 days now. You could set your clock at 20mins after taking it I get a good 'ol knot in the stomach. Right at 10 mins after drinking it my back and arms feel like they are on fire. The rest of my CL stack should be here tommorrow, was so impressed with the flood I picked up the mag/wraath job.

Thanks for reading and for the outstanding supplements!
So true! Thanks!
Had to show proof that I own them! Thanks.
Yeah, I got my paycheck and I need whey. I want 1 more CL product but can't decide!
The supplements always deliver! Very pleased.
Thanks for the samples!
Thanks! I put 2 scoops in 600ml of water then add ice cubes. Leave it for 5 minutes and it is perfect! WF and GM clump on the bottom, sometimes.
I ordered GM and PW in the combo. Saved about $8. Should have wrote that! My bad!
Thanks!
Thanks for sending the samples!"Eat or stay the **** out of the gym!"
