swell mini-review

**johnyq** · 09-17-2007, 08:51 AM

I went straight from 1 BA product into swell, and with swell the tingles came back (could just mean there is more BA in them per serving). I have faith in the results from BA, so I'm not too concerned with trying to log my results directly, hence a mini review.

mixability: 7/10

It takes a while to mix in, but it eventually does almost completely. I'd say a shaker bottle is a good approach.

Taste:

I have a hard time giving this a number. On one hand, I love the fact it isn't flavored. I don't enjoy drinking sweeteners, and chemical flavoring systems. On the other hand, you can taste the CM in it, and it isn't very pleasant. I can imagine some people having to add flavor to it, but I have no problem drinking it.

I'm going to give it an 9/10.

effects: BA + CM + luceine + poseidon = win

Not going to give a score, but I think it should be obvious this is a winner.

I'm very happy with swell, I would recommend it to anyone.

Thanks for the feedback Jjohn! Glad your happy with SWELL. Give us an update in a week or so once you've had the chance to really take it for a test drive!

Yes, great review johny. And a shaker get's the job done quit well.

Good review Johnyq. A "turbo" shaker and 2-3 scoops of swell works fantastic. I personaly like the fact that the nimbus uses no flavoring system, just the pure ingredients.

With all the negative studies coming out on artificial flavors and sweeteners, we think that many health conscious companies will begin to to the same.

I like this approach too. To tell you the truth, a lot of the artificially flavored supps are way too sweet for me and almost make me sick to my stomach. I actually prefer shotgunning bulk powders to some of the flavored mixtures I've used.

Plus it makes the versatility of the product so much more.

I do hate over sweet supplements, sometimes I wake up in the morning and I can still taste the workout drink from the night before! That is so wrong. Swell is now in my cart.

I need to try the samples I have at home. I think I may today. I plan on hitting the gym on the way home from the airport

I hate travelling for business.

Dang, I forgot to grab them so worked out without. I'll put them somewhere conspicuous for friday's workout

They both have nice ingredient profiles.

Why does the blast packet say 2 servings?

Prolly cause it has 2 servings.

Half the pack would equate 1 total serving of the original Blast formula.

The Blast samples do contain 2 servings. I would drink them both at once preworkout...nice, clean energy!

Remember the BLAST samples are UNFLAVORED. The actual containers of BLAST are Citrus flavored. That said, don't judge the taste of the samples, judge the results!
