I buy from ebay, a seller called supplementoffers. Go for the watermelon flavour.
Edit: Looks like they have updated the formula which comes in a new package. I've sent you a link in trust so you can find it easily.
They have a website too http://www.powerbody.co.uk/search/xtend

orange squash is your friend.
I mix it in a 0.5 coke bottle and leave it for a while to settle - barely tastes any different than squash.
Yeah that's what I tend to do but I much prefer the flavour of xtend
, also apple and black current is good. Orange is pretty good at eliminating most bad tastes IMO. Except unflavoured whey, you never want to mix them

Erm.... what?
That's... terrible?!
On a COMPLETELY different note.
Been doing strength training and general bit of gym for about the last year. Strength side of things going pretty well (from 70kg to 100kg on squats) but it was mostly beating the gut etc I was aiming at.
After changing things up a little and going after strength and stamina gains from here on in (as well as still dropping BFR by a good 10%).
My current routines around 40 minutes of various 3x12 sets for whatever muscle group(s) i'm doing that day then around 20 minutes fairly intense rowing 3 times a week.
Would just switching to 3x20ish on a lower weight and the same row work or do I need to change things more/up the reps further? I'd guess throwing and extra day in would likely be needed too as the consitancy is important for stamina gains?
Happy for general tips/questions/suggestions etc.

Why is the new version SO much more xpensivethan the old one. Doesn't seem to be that much different unless i'm missing something
I think they have dropped the price of the old one to make way for the new.
Love the name of this pre-workout supp - http://www.powerbody.co.uk/product-beast_sports_nutrition_beast_mode_fruit_punch_373g,3404.html
Wow, eventful few days. I went into anaphylactic shock from a face cream i had been using !!! One thing i know all the pre-workout supplements have nothing on a shot of Adrenaline!
Now thats what you need before a big session let me tell you!

Ouch, all good now I assume?
Soldato
Yes. Except for the fact he now has no face
Caporegime
You don't need a face when you have abz 
Soldato
Face is unnecessary weight.
Yeah I know, I'm just a perfectionist!Really? Those are the videos that we took the other week . . .
The squats are looking better every time mateThanks matey
Aye certainly some tightness somewhere, been working on the hips lately if thats the correct area to mention...Will look up those other words you just mentioned
I think I certainly need to move to a four day split at some point...Got some serious lower back pump due to supersetting shoulders in between sets (not the squats) hopefully not buggered anything
There are some things we can work on though, but they'll be fixed by what we're doing in your mobilise thread.Oh so we're just stealing things from facebook are we?
The worrying thing is, I think it's completely serious
Yeah, all good kinda of - some scary times!!! airways decided to close up - they think the cream may have contained penicillin which im allergic to, yet doctor pescribed.
Got a load of steriod to take next few days; no anaobolic in sight!

I found it first, honest.
Yep, it goes on far too long to be a micky take.
"I go to the gym, on the regs. I push weights..... with my legs"
Soldato
There's no way it's serious. They'd be trying to show off with heavy weights if they were.

and a good solid diet
Finally after three weeks of dealing with powerhousefitness, I'm getting my squat stand, oly bar with plates and new bench delivered on Friday to set up at home. I'm a man of simple needs obviously. I've been doing strength training on and off for the past 18 months. 5X5, 3X5, RPT and now 5/3/1. Got tired of the gym atmosphere and having to wait for the power rack, so I made the decision (given the limited amount of equipment I actually need) to set up a home gym.
Can't wait to get back into a routine.
