Never Listen to Milas about RecoverPro

Wait so bdcc wtf why didn't u look at the serving size urself???? Im still confused how Milas is faulted.... before I buy something I ask advice but I also do my own sight seeing as well...
 
:thinking:

I guess that is a fair and accurate statement, no?

Way too professional and courteous response. He's British, he prefers more chipper conversation from us muggles. Is that the best AI can throw at this? Pshaw!

It's all a hoax, BDCC ran out of witty ways to come back to my British humour, so he resorted to character assassination and aryuvedic voodoo.

I tried my first tub of RecoverPro in lemon. It is barely more expensive than bulk powder BCAAs in England that aren't flavoured and came with a free shaker so I was happy.

Milas convinced me to try the raspberry option because it tastes so delicious. If you take a few scoops intra workout like I do the taste is extremely sweet and sickly. I much preferred lemon.

So, I bought another tub of lemon flavour recently and noticed this;

Lemon flavour
1kg tub
4:1:1 ratio with 6g total BCAAs per serving
Serving size 6.8g
Servings per container 147

Raspberry flavour
1kg tub
4:1:1 ratio with 6g total BCAAs per serving
Serving size 8g
Servings per container 125

22 more servings in the lemon flavour with the same amount of BCAAs in each. I didn't notice this online as the websites I buy from do not supply nutritional information on more than one label. I didn't realise the discrepancy and although raspberry would have to use more flavours etc I didn't think it would add up to this much of a difference.

Just to make anyone aware who wasn't already.

Never take advice from Milas!

P.S., the lemon I buy from the biggest distributor in the UK is the old style so maybe it has changed with the new label.

Only one version of the label is shown online. It wasn't until I looked at the label once it arrived that I realised the difference. I have said this already. I am surprised you didn't see it as you do so much research. :p

P.S. for anyone who is unsure, I wouldn't take the accusatory manner of this thread too seriously lol. Something tells me I might have to repost this a few times if the thread continues for a lot more pages lol.
 
22 servings is a lot to lose between one lemon flavour and the next. I would expect that much of a discrepancy if you were turning unflavoured into 'very berry chocolate watermelon' lol.

Losing 22 servings worth of amino on a lemon flavour upgrade. The black tub must be dangerously sweet lol. I hope the white version stays in stock over here. :)
 
Sounds like its the problem of the website you ordered from

Out of all of the English stereotypes I have never heard this one lol.

As it is based on one person it is like me saying "I knew an American guy once, he used to wear his underwear over his trousers and wash in a puddle" lol :)
 
Milas, I stand firm that lemon flavour is the way to go but there is one thing I will take back.

I will take back my comment about PES reps being the best looking. I saw a photo of MidwestBeast and his beard is glorious. It looks exactly like this.

 
I'm Ron Burgundy?

I tried to make a poster saying "DO NOT TRUST THIS MAN'S FLAVOURING ADVICE, HE HAS A VERY SWEET TOOTH!" but when I cropped the yellow face from his avatar the resolution was too low for me to enlarge.

I am not even sure it is his real face...

Why so serious?
 
I also ordered the old recover pro lemon flavour and i think it's disgusting compared to Xtend flavours, do you not find it quite chemicaly tasting?
Also it does not mix very well at all...well, compared to xtend.

I prefer the lemon flavour (white tub) to raspberry. I haven't tried the black tub of the lemon flavour but if it has the same amount of added sweeteners as the raspberry flavour I don't think I would be able to handle it. I might buy some in bulk and mix them as it has been suggested so far.

I have never tried Xtend though so can't compare. RecoverPro has my business for being the cheapest flavoured BCAA powder I can find.

In America you call them pants I think. :)
 
For anyone who read this thread for the information on RecoverPro it turns out the newer labels (black tub) have a reformulated lemon flavour which has the same BCAA content per serving per tub i.e., no discrepancies at all.

The old white tub of RecoverPro wasn't as sweet which is why there is a difference between the two I was comparing. You guys are probably less likely to see old tubs as stock turn around in the UK is inevitably slower than in the USA for your companies.

For everyone else who was in the thread for the banter, feel free to carry on. :p

It depends, do you trust the flavouring advice from someone who eats haggis?

I thought y'all were a "United Kingdom"? That's like saying what someone does in Texas isn't American!

Besides, the Scotts have the best part of the island where they make fantastic libations and "the water of life", SCOTCH!!!

In all honesty, the 'typical British person' has disappeared. Not one to sound xenophobic but i'd wager that there are more Eastern Europeans and Middle-Eastern migrants in the UK than those 'stereotypes' now.

In your typical English food post you have baked beans. Do you not have Heinz baked beans in America? It was founded there.

I searched for "most popular American foods" and these came up in a tongue and cheek article as the top 10 things "only America could have invented". I hadn't heard of most of them. Thoughts?
- Corn dog
- Philly cheesesteak
- "Chinese food" lol
- S'mores
- Reuben sandwich
- Cobb salad
- Baked alaska
- Buffalo wings
- Turducken
- Chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream
