I have always been a Scivation Xtend fan and advocate. Nothing against Purple Wraath but i have no experience with it. AM member 'MrChristian' was gracious enough to mail me some various Controlled Labs product samples and i cannot wait to get them in the mail. I may write a quick comparison of the two.

Xtend is, has and will be a staple of mine for intra-workout supplementation as well as pre-cardio sipping.

Good luck with your goals.

Mark is a great guy. He is one of the few guys that put back into our sport. That is one of the reasons that i do not mind purchasing his [effective] products.

I've used both & enjoy both products. Can't go wrong either way..

Wraath has the EAA complex going on, to it's advantage. Also has beta alanine. Plusses..

Xtend is higher in BCAA content, without additional EAA's. Also has a decent dose of glutamine..

They both taste good. Essentially, these products are interchangeable - in fact, since I keep both in stock, sometimes I'll alternate them daily depending on what taste I want for that particular day.

If you can get a substantially better price on one over the other, that would be the one I'd go with.

That's been my reason for repeatedly purchasing Xtend. If the price of Purple Wraath comes down a little @ Nutra I'll probably give it a shot.
 



Start by first doing what's necessary, then what's possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

I personally have never tried xtend, so it's not really fair, but I have used PW and can tell you I think it's awesome. Since you've tried both, however, I'd go with your gut feeling. Hope this helps.

xtend - is an amzing product, ive been using it for a month .. i didnt believe the hype .. but once i tried it, i cant get off it .. xtend just has the ingredients to get you more endurance, while PW have way more ingredients .. i personally dont like the taste of PW, its an amazing product and works better then xtend in the gym .. but cost wise, i would choose Xtend over PW .. heck you can get 90servings tub w/ vasocharge for $50 .. thats an amazing deal. plus xtend tastes so good, even if you mix in your own EAA's or other cretine products .. the taste still remains the same.

if $$ isnt the option for you ..then go with PW, for me it is so i choose xtend lol

Can't go wrong with either.

Xtend is a basic BCAA product that tastes good as well.
PW is an EAA product with a pre workout complex that tastes good as well.

I say try both and stick with whichever one you like

as a long time user of extend, i think it is very good. but after a long time of using extend i went back on purple wraath. i honestly feel more of a bump up with pw, will be sticking with the wraath. imo the beta alanine and cit mal make a huge difference, you can actually feel the effects. btw taking pw with swell and incarnate will give a nice ba tingle.

agreed. the pre workout matrix of PW is not given enough credit. while the amount is small, it works synergistically with the EAA complex to make it a very effective product.

I can't wait to try this product. Not to do a comparison but to treat it as a stand alone opportunity.

I love Xtend, I always have some on hand and I think the taste is great.
I tried Purple Wraath when it first came out and the taste was the WORST!!!!! I gave my tub away to someone on this site cause I could not choke it down. The new Purple Wraath is better tasting not perfect but you don't gag like you used to when you drink it.
