Product Review: Infinite Labs MassPort

I took a shot of this after a workout one fine day. MassPort from Infinite Labs, a recovery drink along the likes of Xtend. It does take the usual formula to greater heights with the inclusion of some complex carbs and salts.

So I've got BCAAs, glutamine, some creatines, the carbs and salt in a shaker....

and flavoured Fruit Punch. It's the all too familiar cherry taste once again but I found it alright. Not overdone and felt a little like Torrent's Cherry Berry Blast. The inclusion of maltodextrin and other complex carbs was immediately apparent as I took a swig. Kinda gives it a smooth and thicker texture.

I think its important for recovery drinks to taste reasonably good since we all look to reward ourselves after a grueling workout. In this case, MassPort gets the thumbs up.

Product Review: Gaspari Superpump 250

I had a shot of Gaspari's Superpump 250 that night when I worked out my shoulders. The IFBB Hall of Famer's nutrition line has been gaining popularity of late.

Grape was the flavour of choice and I must say, it tastes exactly like Fanta or F&N minus the fizz. But where the tasts fizzles out with the carbonated drink, it just keeps going with Superpump. This can be a good thing if you're one who's really into the synthetic taste of grape juice but honestly, I thought that it'll be better off a little milder.

The choice of ingredients are impressive to say the least. With a proprietary blend deserving of such a prestigious brand, it boasts of everything you would expect in a pre-workout: creatines, arginines, taurine, citrulline and the usual salts. Interestingly, Superpump also has a bit of BCAAs though I don't know how much. But surely every little bit helps.

Personally, I felt the effects were a little subdued but perhaps this was because I had some evening snack prior to the serving. Should try it with an empty stomach next time. Furthermore, it is advertised as having a cumulative effect with increasing potency as you continually use it.
