Whassup iron game fans,

here is my Mass XXplosion review:

First of all, I didnt buy it, I was given couple of the sachets for free as a part of my order. Overall, Im glad I didnt spend a dime buying it.

It is supposed to be an intra workout drink promoting endurance, strenghth and faster recovery.

Lets run down the ingredient list 3/10:

Main ingredients are BCAA - cca 6 grams per serving, I somehow believe this is underdosed, especially for a person over 225 pounds. Seriously, I would rather prefer getting 15g of BCAAs. Then, 30g waxy maize - I cannot really comment on this. Finally, some underdosed creatine and arginine. To sum this up, there are better products out there.

Taste: 3/10
In the world of todays flavouring technologies, it shouldnt be such a big deal to make a drink you are supposed to sip on during your workout taste good. Taste and overall texture was one of the major drawbacks. I got the fruit punch flavour, and it just tastes awfully. There is an unpleasant aftertaste after every sip and the drink is very foamy, you have to shake it before each sip, just imagine those nasty burps! Also the pink/red artificial colour is something I didnt like, Im trying to stay the fu*k away from artificial dyes!


Effectivenes 4/10:

It is rather difficult to judge, but I didnt notice anything significant. My regular protein shake has more BCAAs per serving, and the waxy maize seems to be just a carb filler. Throw in underdosed 2grams of creatine and some arginine and you have the same stuff.

Value: N/A.

I got this junk for free, so I cannot comment on the value.

Overall, considering the underdosed ingredients, awfull flavour, artificial dyes and the foamy, clumping texture this product wont become my favourite, I will never buy it.

I used this a few months ago when I found it on clearance at Vitamin Shoppe for $11. I actually preferred it over drinking water between sets since it
gave me added energy and it seemed to increase my pump a little. For $11 it's ok but I wouldn't pay $40 for this. Other than a boost in energy and a slight pump increase it didn't really help. I have had success with some of Nutrex products but this was not one.

This is the first INTRA product that I started to use instead of just water during my w/o. The taste isn't great - I think grape is better - and it does need to be continually shaken. However, I do feel that it helped with endurance and strength during the w/o (75-90 minutes), and definitely helped me in recovery. Tried Size-On, but seemed too "much" for my stomach during a workout, and tried MyoSurge, which seemed "weak," so I am back to this for now. Price is not cheap but OK for 15 packets, and I do like the idea of the individual packets.

Mass Xxplosion for starters is a during workout drink. It has waxy maize starch, which is a fast acting carb that helps restore muscle glycogen stores (aka carbs your body naturally stores for energy use during exercise and everyday activities). It also contains Creatine, BCAA's and Arginine for decreased fatigue and vasodilation. I tried the fruit punch flavor and can honestly say that it is not the best tasting drink. Also you need to give it a shake every few minutes or the waxy maize will clump at the bottom of your shaker cup. I didn't notice any significant strength gains but it did allow me to recovery for the next day's workout. Overall I think it is a decent product, but if you are looking for a pump/vaso expansion similar to NO products like Vassive NO, Super Pump, Trac..., then you will be dissapointed. If you are doing higher reps and cardio on the same day then you may find this product helpful. Personally I would take MHP's Dark Matter over this product for taste and the results I have seen from Dark Matter. I hope that this review has answered any questions you may have had about this product and its uses.
