| Customer Reviews: Like an Orange Creamsicle and Good for you! January 19, 2010 T. Majamaki (Los Angeles, CA) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Simply the best and most satifying recovery drink that I have ever tasted and used. The P90X Results and Recovery Formula really works. I've tried lots of protein shakes energy drinks for workouts and nothing compares to this stuff. It tastes amazing. Great job BeachBody.
This works!! February 6, 2010 Jen (Virginia) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
It tastes OK (like an orange smoothie) and it really works. I use it before the P90X "Ab Ripper X" to regain some energy I lost during their brutal 1 hr workouts. Picks me right up!
Tastes Great! February 10, 2010 R. Falk (New Jersey) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
One of the best tasting nutrition drinks I've ever tasted. Mixes better if you put it in a blender.
Tastes great and I'm less sore! February 22, 2010 Eileen Ahn (CA) Yeah, it's expensive. It hurt a bit to pay for this but I think it's worth it. Costs knocks off a star.
Taste :: as many people have stated all over the net, this drink tastes great. It tastes 1000x better when it's cold. So I mix it up and then throw in some ice cubes, let it sit for a minute and chug away.
Recovery :: I take this drink after intense workouts.. especially ones that I know will make me sore. Comparing the days I don't drink this to the days that I do...the next morning I am definitely less sore when I've had the P90x Recovery drink.
The Drink :: There was a lot of research put into this drinks and it has the right ratio of carbs, protein, and sugar. I know it seems ironic that a drink would have so much sugar in it but it's not for the taste...it's for the recovery. After an intense workout like that, your body will soak it right up.. it's not going to your gut. The serving suggests two scoops but I'm trying to make it go a bit longer and just do one scoop. It's a pretty concentrated drink so it still tastes fine and I still feel the difference.
A great plus for anybody who can put down the money. I've never had any other brands and many people have suggested Chocolate milk but it's not the same for me.
Over-priced upset stomach March 1, 2010 M. McMillan (FL) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Just as a preface to my review: The other reviews I've read here are all very positive, so I wanted to offer this bit of more negative information. So, I am seven weeks into P90X. The videos recommend this supplement after every workout. First, I do think there are nutritional benefits to using this recovery drink; however, I think they are overstated and not necessarily tied to this specific product. If you compare the protein and electrolyte content of the P90X Recovery drink to chocolate milk, you can see that they are pretty similar. Now, I'm not saying you should just chug chocolate milk after cardio or plyometrics, but it is one example of a much cheaper comparative product. Aside from the expensive cost ($60 for one month) of the P90X Recovery drink, I would also like to note that when I use the drink, I routinely suffer from an upset stomach (read: "killer diarrhea"). While this could just be me, I have spoken to other P90X participants who have similar digestive complaints. Aside from those two big drawbacks (it's over-priced and induces diarrhea), I do believe there are definite benefits to using this or other similar products. Also, it really does taste pretty good--like orange sherbet, and is a nice healthy treat after a hard workout.
