what can reasonably compare to Scivation Xtend?

[Ashayegh85]

I currently use scivation xtend as an intra workout supplement...in fact its great when i drink it all day...I GUESS my question is...what can compare to scivation xtend and still allow you to drink all day as Xtend allows you to...with zero sugar and zero carbs?...is there anything that compares to this product?

[powercage]

Purple Wraath, Core ABC, Intrabolic

Lots of products really

[kr1kit]

Universal Atomic 7 and Omega Strive are also two great intra's.

But why is it that you think you need to drink it all day?

I REALLY only eat 3 times a day...because I'm always busy....so i usually mix 3 scooped in one gallon of water...and drink that all day so my protien doesn't deplete...but during workout I drink 2 scooped in about 20-25oz of water

The most comparable product to Xtend is Dymatize Recoup wich uses Ajipure bcaas.

AI Sports Nutrition RecoverPro is a great product...you can check the log in my signature if you want some more info

This. RecoverPRO is likely my next intra, or Atomic 7.

Xtend is mighty tasty though.

I loved the lemon, friends loved the raspberry...I'm sure you'll like whichever you go with

Lemon eh? I typically avoid anything Lemon tasting, but with the LCP UP 2.0 hype and a few others, I may turn that opinion around. I'll be sure to check it out.

lemonade flavor more than anything else...more of a real, legit lemonade that any product I've ever used...moreso than Xtend, moreso than WF/GM/PW's lemonade flavor...you put ice in it and you wouldn't know it was a supplement

You are not going to go cataBROlic even if you only eat once per day as long as you're hitting your protein macro in the meal(s).

SAN makes a couple of great intra-workouts as well:

BCAA-Pro 5000 is our standard BCAA supplement, comparable to Xtend/RecoverPro.

And then for an extra boost, Intra-Fuel has some added goodies like citmal, BA, EAAs, etc. comparable to Purple Wraath.

Hope this helps!

Pretty sure alot of BCAA supps are comparable to Xtend, also pretty sure drinking a BCAA supp in a gallon of water a day isn't going to maintain any protein levels. You can use Layne's PP, but honestly he speaks more of Leucine then the effects of BCAA. So even then Recoverpro is a good choice, or almost any BCAA or EAA product with high amounts of leucine.

This. I think fasted vs non-fasted is pretty important too in determining the ratio.

There are many out there, but xtend tends to be best in price for serving from what ive seen.

Still completely and utterly baffled at how this idiot's rep keeps going up...

Somebody is trolling us hard.

You can drink BCAA all day long at the end of the day it's going to do about as much as some Koolaid. You get enough aminos from whole foods and protein shake. Aminos are nice, but like I said we get plenty already. I like the BCAA that's already naturally in the protein. If it's from Chicken, Steak, Eggs, Protein powder. It's plenty.

Taking BCAA is like someone taking vitamin C throughout the day because they want to be extra healthy lol. Poor bastards that buy this stuff.

[asianstyles]

RecoverPro and Aminocore are great options.

Found LCP UP 2.0 really disappointing. Nowhere near as good as vanilla.

Lol at you thinking you know everything about other peoples diets. And lol at you thinking vitamin C isn't worth taking.

[Hawks58]

Rather he is trolling or not, he is most likely right. We all know the research on BCAA's are all over the place, but Layne Norton has postulated that keeping elevated levels throughout the day isn't really good for making muscle.

[Greatbeyond]

Lol at you thinking you know everything about other peoples diets. And lol at you thinking vitamin C isn't worth taking.

No I never said Vitamin C isn't worth taking, once a day is good. I was just making a point. I never said BCAA isn't worth getting. You get plenty of BCAA in the diet. I'm assuming if you workout on a regular basis you do eat more than just salad right? If the diet isn't in check as far as getting the right foods and one of them being Protein (BCAA) enriched foods, you think BCAA powder is going to make up for your lack of calories or proteins? Won't do a damn thing.


Oh wait are you someone who eats a good lifters diet? Do you already take protein powder? Don't need seperate BCAA then. BCAA powder isn't going to do jack **** either way. Funny how that works out. It's all about the protein, BCAA is in protein yes. Protein is a whole BCAA is only a part of that whole. get the whole thing.
