Posted in the other thread, might as well post here too
This stuff is so legit. As others have said it rivals blood orange. Blood orange is a very easy drink and this is more of an exotic like flavor. Definitely nailed it though, I am SUPER impressed. Will review once using a few more times.
Current collection of Xtend

Tried the Free Strawberry Kiwi yesterday, and I was really impressed. As much as I wanted it to be good, I was pretty skeptical. Tasted imo like what I'd assume a strawberry kiwi Jolly Rancher would taste like, but lighter.
Going to crack into the Ripped as an intra on Monday.PRs: 95lbs/126lbs/212lbs

Thank you NEB and Scivation! Another stellar intra.
AntM Reviews Xtend Elite
I am a huge fan of Xtend. Not only is Xtend manufactured by company that has been in the supplement market for quite some time, but it has set the bar for what other manufacturer's produce as their BCAA product.
Now, Scivation has produced Xtend Elite which is the beloved BCAA product of many, but now with Peak O2, ashwagandha, and beta alanine. In a nutshell, this increases exercise performance, output and intensity over time due to a lowering of lactic acid.
I have noticed that intra set recovery time seems to be lower. Meaning, I can rest for a shorter period of time, but feel as though I am ready for the next set and do not need to rest as long. Lastly, normally where reps would fall off, it seemed like they did not. Pumps were very good throughout the workout as well and I did not use anything pre workout. I attribute that to the 3 grams of citrulline.
Next is the flavor. I wanted to try the sour gummy since it is an odd flavor for Scivation given the flavor profile of their other products. In the past, Scivation has always gone with fruity flavors and have not produced any candy like flavors. I like sour items, as long as they aren't too sour. Initially, you get the sourness, but then has a sweetness of a ring pop. It is a great blend of sour and sweet.
Mixing is perfect, no clumps and just a little foaming that disappears over time during your workout.
if you have longer training sessions, train fasted or cannot train until a while after your last meal, I would suggest Xtend Elite. It is worth the added cost, in those circumstances, where performance may drop off a little. With continuous use, I think DOMS would be reduced and intra workout workout would be even better than my initial testing. 10/10

Let me get this straight..you just copy/pasted an old review that you did for the original Xtend, then added in a couple sentences in the beginning to "freshen it up"?....
You didnt mention anything regarding how the "free" flavour compares to the original formulas, you literally copy pasted your old review for BOTH of these reviews, you didnt put any thought at all into these....
We are supposed to be giving honest, and thorough reviews here. We are getting full sized products, for free...its the least we could do
Also, you forgot to include forum reviews.
Smh....."It is what it is"

You did a previous "extensive review" back in either 2015, or August 31st (bb.com is being weird)...either way, your just copy pasting an old review without putting any effort into this new review. I dont know, maybe its just me, but i wouldnt feel right doing that. They gave you two full tubs, in return for a copy pasted review that you previously did? I guess it fits the parameters, but it aint right man
And yea, its Sunday...its a slow day"It is what it is"

Hey folks let’s try to keep civil in here no need to call each other out please. Sometimes the shipping varies widely. This was a giant submissions so there may end up being some that slipped through. Hopefully not but as sci lead said if anyone still hasn’t received later this week we will go through each thing with a fine tooth comb to make sure everyone gets what they were supposed to

It's all civil. I just think that we should actually spend some time to do up a proper review for you guys. You guys are being super generous here...and to just go and copy paste an old review that you previously did, in return for two full sized products..i dont know, just doesnt seem right to me. We should AT LEAST include a few pics, proving that we even opened the container. It should be mandatory.
I just thought it needed to be said...
That being said, im loving all the pics in here and i cant wait to get my shipment!

Review is up along with a store review - definitely met my expectations on the flavoring! I already knew the product would fit my training and diet needs well. Thanks again! Look forward to trying some of the other new flavors in the near future.
Any chance the Sour Gummy will get added to the standard Xtend as a flavor option?????
