Awesome REVIEW!
Scivation Xtend was the first intra/BCAA product I have tried. Definitely a WINNER!
Went through 5, 90 serving tubs of the old formula.
-1 tub Grape
-2 tubs watermelon
-2 tubs green apple
I'm pretty sure if I started off with bulk unflavored BCAA, I would have never bought BCAAs ever again.

Used Scivation XTend watermelon during my workout this morning and taste was great. No slime or anything like that, tasted good and while I thought I could see a few floaters in the bottle I didn't taste any particulate. That being said I put it in a half liter water bottle that I poured about 3 ounces out of so I should have used a mixer cup. All in all I enjoyed it, be interested to see if it helps reduce recovery time this weekend as I've been constantly sore for 8 days since starting Strong Lifts!

Awesome man! The floaters are just the leucine which sometimes has a harder time dissolving in water, no issues whatsoever with taste or effectiveness tho.
Def keep us updated on how it helps you. You will see a decrease in soreness and notice the DOMS lasting a shorter period of time. Overall you'll get a less beat up feeling from training.

Was thinking of mixing my ON Creatine with my Scivation XTend on workout days....thoughts?

So I just got some of the Xtend, I believe its older stuff cause its not the same labeling as this, its black container, with a black/silver label. The grape is clumped up, still give it a use? I got quite of an arrayy of flavors to try so im curious of how it works, I got it all old formula, sadley, some small tubs and tall tubs, all close to exp. so I gotta get em goin. But from the sounds of it, its a great product so I cant wait to try it!

That is correct and how many utilize the product. Some also utilize the product between meals based on the research of Layne Norton

If I had to choose only one I would opt to use it intraworkout. But both have benefits.

I use a shaker instead of stirring and it works extremely well. At Smoothie King there was a VERY nice bottle where you have to twist the top on/off (screw top basically) and the mouth piece required a reasonable amount of force to close and about 2x as much to open. VERY good shaker. I think it was called a "Blender Bottle" and I'd highly recommend one.

Totally in on the Xtend love! I went through 2 tubs, and ordered my 90 serving Water Mellon this week, should arrive in a week or so, can't wait! Xtend is definitely a great intra

Yeah I've noticed the "floaters" but only with the Lemon-Lime strangely enough.
Tried Xtend for the first time, adding Blue Razz, L-L and Grape to my most recent order (at a steal, considering it was a Canadian e-tailer). I think I'd rank them the same as OP as well. The flavors have great longevity too, I usually mix 2 scoops with 32oz of water, and refill at the gym when it gets to about halfway finished, the flavors hold up great to that. Glad I took the chance on 3 bottles. Definitely something I hope to keep my supplement stash from now on.
Though I will try the rest of the flavors hopefully, I think Blue Razz will be my go-to.

The floaters, or leucine flakes, for me usually go away if they sit in water. I like to just mix a little while before going to the gym.
Thanks for the input! Def agree on the flavoring. I do the same and notice the flavor doesnt get watered down easily, stays nice and refreshing.
Look forward to your thoughts on the rest of the flavors. Blue razz is the same for me, always my go to flavor. Could drink it everyday

I feel this helped me recover well and sometimes I also took it with my preworkout so I could get a little extra aminos in. When I did that I feel it aided me in my training as well as helping me hold my pumps a little longer. Mixes without any issues and tastes great as well. Also want to say I really appreciate the samples that were sent to me! Thanks a lot Scivation!

Scivation did a promo when the flavor was first released. Here is just a sample of reviews
