Easy. Xtend, my recovery and endurance has vastly improved since I started taking it. Now it is a staple.
For Primaforce, I have only tried MAX CLA.

My favorite Scivation product is the Anagen/Fenotest stack. I will never try to cut without using them and they work great for any intense training plan or preparation for a contest.
My favorite Primaforce product is Substance. Great tasting, easy to mix, and affordable - I don't have a need for any other WPI.

I like substance. I forgot it was a PrimaForce product and not Scivation, because I first tried it with the Backbone stack.

Primal EAA

Invalid Link Removed
Background: I have used a few BCAA/EAA mixes in the past, and was really excited to try Primal EAA since it has a high dose of L-Leucine.......and it is LEMONADE flavored!!! I have used both Xtend (Watermelon) & Purple WrAAth (Grape), and loved both of them. I also used GNC's BCAA liquid back in the day as well as Twin Lab's BCAA liquid........both tasted unbelievably terrible.....almost like sour cough syrup!
Dosing: I have been using 1.5 scoops of Primal during my morning cardio sessions. I use the elliptical because I had reconstructive knee surgery and cant run too far on pavement without my knee hurting later in the day. I keep my HR between 130-140 and go for 40 minutes.
Inrgredients (9/10);
Serving Size: 1 Scoops (18.18 grams)
Servings Per Container: 60
Amount Per Serving:
L-Leucine 4860 mg
L-Valine 2160 mg
L-Lysine HCL 2160 mg
L-Phenylalanine 1836 mg
L-Threonine 1296 mg
L-Isoleucine 864 mg
L-Histidine 702 mg
L-Methionine 486 mg
Taste (8/10); I was REALLY excited to try this flavor bevcause I had heard so many good things about it, and lemonade is just a great flavor to sip on during your cardio/workout. It has a really subtle lemon taste, with a sweet aftertaste.......really good. The only drawback I have is that it is not strong enough for me.......I WANT MORE LEMON!
Effectiveness (9.5/10); I love drinking this during cardio, and intra-workout. The high dose of L-Leucine is very appealing to me, as new research is coming out daily on how effective L-Leucine is as an "anabolic trigger." It keeps my energy levels up for the whole 40 minutes, and I would keep going on for longer, but I dont want to burn all my muscle off!....lol....
Final Grade (26.5/30 = 8.333)
I recommend this to ANYONE who does long sessions of cardio, and/or those who want a high dose of L-Leucine pre/during/post workout.......and it tastes really good!!

VasoXplode Review-
Invalid Link Removed
Invalid Link Removed
Focus(9/10): I have never used an "NO" product that dials me in like VasoXplode. This was the first supplement that I used for an extended period of time that contains DL-Phenylalanine. I loved the feeling I had in the gym after taking VasoXplode.....I think it may be the DL-Phenylalanine that gives VasoXplode a different "feel" that other pre-workout "NO" products.......whatever it is, my focus was spot on throughout the whole tub. I was never distracted during my workouts.....I was completely focused on tearing down my muscles.
Strength(8/10): I was pleasently surprised that I made so many PR's during my log. I had been using beta-alanine, creatine, and most of the other ingredients present in VasoXplode for some time before my log started, so I really wasnt expecting anything in the "Strength" department. I believe it was the combination of always having solid energy, being very focused and high endurance levels that led to my PRs.
Pump(9/10): After looking at the ingredient profile, I was glad to see that the guys at Scivation did NOT skimp on the vasodialators. It has over 8g's of vasodialators! In the past I have only used 3-6g of arginine and the like pre workout and it gave me a great pump, so I couldnt wait to use 8g's! I got a great pump each workout. I even got pumps in my legs, which is not usual for me AT ALL. My first workout on VasoXplode was a leg workout, and I was really surprised at how pumped I got. I also noticed the viens in my shoulders coming out, and the veins running down my arms/forearms/calves were VERY big.
Energy(9/10): Most of the products like VasoXplode that I have used in the past are jam packed with caffeine and other stimulants......while this might get you energized, its easy to get anxious or overly stimulated from taking TOO much caffeine pre-workout. This often leads to a "so-so" lifting session, because you cant seem to settle down enough to actually lift!
That being said, this is not the case with VasoXplode.....I never once felt too stimulated, but still got a great "kick" pre-workout 
Endurance(10/10): My favorite part about VasoXplode is the endurance factor
Most of you know how much I love beta-alanine, and that addition to this product put it in a class all by itself when it comes to "NO" products. The BA combined with creatine kept my endurance levels sky high during each workout. I never once felt completely drained after working out, and if you followed my log, you know I was doig quite a bit of volume/weight. Two thumbs up for ENDURANCE 
Taste(8/10): Having used both Lemonade Xtend and Primal EAA, this flavoring system tastes like a mix between the two....it is not too sweet, and not too tart. There are a few ingredients in VasoXplode that taste terrible when taken in bulk, and Scivation did a great job masking them. It was a refreshing lemonade treat.
Intangibles(10/10):
- ZERO stomach discomfort.
- Top notch ingredient profile.
- Great price.
Final Grade(9/10)

Great review! Primal EAA and VasoXplode/Primal N2O stack very well together.
