Can't go wrong with either in all honesty. I enjoy both of them very much. Cons are none unless you don't like the taste which many do. I've noticed a bit more energy during my workouts while using PW and have had better recovery with Xtend.

Yes currently. I was wondering how the EA complex stacked up to the BCAA complex to be honest.

I have always preferred PW, but in my experience they have been very similar for me.

I prefer grape over lemonade. To much lemon when combined with GM Lemonade and WF.

the one time i did buy PW my shaker cracked from the pressure built up by attempting to make the powder mix. It mixes terribly and gives you a very sick feeling. The product relies entirely on its beta alanine content (which DOES give you more endurance by the very nature of beta alanine) to bring back purchasers.
You do FEEL more endurance but it's entirely from the beta alanaine. And the tingles suck. And it mixes badly (already said that), and actually made me sick.

never got the chance to try Xtend, but PW was awesome in terms of endurance and recovery. Definitely worth it.

PW = Better overall supp...more ingredients....taste is ok
Xtend = Better price (If you consider 2 scoops a serving), better taste, good if you plan on mixing with another intra-workout supp.

This is what I am using right now, it's not real fancy but at the end of the day it's going to do what these other two products do.
