Overview



Hurricane XS® is one of the most forward thinking 'all-in-one' supplements on the market. With slow digesting carbohydrates this formula is suited for consumption as either a meal replacement or post workout (PWO) supplement. The carbohydrate source is based around the slow digesting carbohydrate choice of our Ultra Fine Scottish Oats to give a sustained release in energy and aid tissue growth over a period of time. The protein chosen is now a combination of Whey Protein Isolate and Whey Protein Concentrate which is high biological value whey to aid lean growth and repair. Whey Protein Isolate is the gold standard in protein powders.

There is 5g of Creapure® creatine in each serving to aid strength and an increase in lean mass. No other supplement in the industry has the reputation for increasing lean gains and strength as creatine. Creapure® is the advanced and more pure form of monohydrate powder. More reps, more strength equals more gains.

Combined with quality training Hurricane XS® will yield great results in both strength and size, whilst providing a fresh tasting shake to consume on the go. We have also added 1.5g's of HMB per serving to increase lean tissue and stave off catabolism tissue break down).

The science behind this formula is unrivalled, the gains fantastic!

Key Benefits

  • Supports lean growth and strength gains
  • Also fantastic as a Meal Replacement

  • Review:
    Doesn't mix brilliantly, and when you shake it enough to mix it properly, a large, horrible froth forms. Strawberry Cream is an absolutely DIABOLICAL flavour, disgusting, really is. I bought the Chocolate Smooth originally, and it was as nice as rival products in the top price bracket, but a friend of mine couldn't stomach the Strawberry that he bought, so I swapped mine for his to stop him wasting the 2.5 kilos he'd bought. Tastes worse with milk than water (Strawb) However, I've noticed recovery much superior to the expensive brands, I never have any pain after workouts now. Weights I can lift are going up big time too, and I'm noticing an increase in size, though this won't be solely down to this product, as I started on an expensive brand. Overall, yes, buy it, but DO NOT buy Strawberry Cream.

    This is my attempt at a review that will help people who were in a similar situation to me a couple of weeks ago. As I have only have the product for a week, I clearly can't comment on the effectiveness of it, however I will come back in a month or so and give a secondary review concerning this. I have never done the 'gym thing' before, and never touched a protein shake in my life. After much deliberation, I decided to go with Hurricane XS as my daily protein/all in one intake. I have been taking the product morning and after workouts in the evening. I bought Chocolate Mint flavour, and it tastes absolutely fine - I can't complain about it at all. It also mixes very well, giving a shake that is easy to drink and actually enjoyable. No scoop included in the pouch which I didn't realise, but not to worry as my housemate has a 70cc one I have been using. I have perhaps noticed some improvement in recovery time (muscles aching less), but as I said, I will comment on the effectiveness at a later date when I have been taking for a longer period of time. Very impressed with MyProtein... I ordered on Saturday evening and the product was with me on Monday afternoon (standard delivery).

    Brilliant flavour and texture - Really found it to be effective and easy to take... doesnt get too sicky. Reccomend Mint Choc with just a little water.
  • Tim Morris (27/01/2012)
  • Review:
    have been using this for a few weeks now and have to say that it seems to be helping my recovery after workouts and providing a pretty good meal substitute. having said that the mixability is pretty poor and the taste is just horrendous. Unlike all other myprotein products that ive tried this one genuinely makes me gag still after using it for 3 weeks; it is far too sweet and sickly (latte flavour) and from reading other reviews this seems to be the case across the flavours. if you are at all fussy about poor flavour or dont have a ridiculously sweet tooth (didnt think i fell into either of these categories!) then i would suggest avoiding this.

  • Review:
    I've been using the toffee version of this for about a month now. I really dont like the taste much and i also dont think it mixes very well. That said it does do the job of keeping me full and replenishing protein after a workout. One massive bonus that I do like about the toffee flavoured version is if you add a scoop to oats it makes a fantastic flavoured poridge!

    Just recieved my order yet again in good time, first time ive bought unflavoured, hopefully this protein sits better with my body hope to see good results after my first one i can tell you by doing the following this was the best protien shake ive ever tasted : mix 350ml of milk with 2 of the mp large scoops like instructed then add a little bit of caramel syrup (used to add to coffee and hot choclate) :)

    I have recently just started using this 'all in one' and I am very happy with it so far. The delivery was excellent as usual!!! I opted for the Choc Nut Flavour. I find it a little sickly, I think'll probably just stick with Choc Smooth in future. Mixability is fine. I take it as stated on the listing and I have noticed that I dont ache half as much as I would normally. I train for an overall military fitness ( running, weighted marches, swim, gym) and his product seems to have it right for me.

    i got unflavoured which at first i found unpleasent but when mixing with water add squash and that dilutes the taste a bit, ive noticed faster recover times not massive weight gain will give it more time.
  • David Harvey (29/12/2011)
  • Review:
    I have been taking this for 6 weeks and it has been simply amazing. To stretch it out, I ONLY take 2 scoops a day instead of the recommended 4. I take 2 scoops one hour before workout and I feel like I can rip the gym apart. In 6 weeks I have added 20kgs to my bench press, 40kgs to my squat and deadlift. I have made unbelieveable progress and the only thing I can put it down to is this stuff. My diet and training have not changed. I bought the chocolate smooth flavour. At first the taste was rancid and gritty, not enjoyable at all, and I had to force it down. But I didnt care that much and now I barely even notice. I would give 10 stars for effectiveness if I could, but 1 star off for taste.

  • Review:
    I was drinking Recovery XS upto a month ago, then i thought i would give Hurricane XS try and all i can say is...i wont be drinking anything else! Hurricane XS definitely does work interms effectiveness. Its helping me push myself that bit better and harder in the gym (Carbohydrate Blend), which in-turn is resulting in a slow improvement in my appearance (Whey Protein Concentrate, Whey Protein Isolate & HMB), strength and power (Creapure). I am recovering alot better the following day/s after a workout. Your diet is a added factor, so if you can sort that part of your lifestyle out and with Hurricane XS added, you will see the results you want. Flavor wise, strawberry cream was a little too sweet and sickly, so my second pouch is chocolate smooth and i will be buying this flavor from now on, as its much more enjoyable to drink. Mixability is excellent, no lumps, a little froth at the top after mixing it but that's normal, a little gritty when drinking the last few ml's of the drink due to creapure most likely, other than that no complaints. Overall a brilliant supplement to drink pre+post workout, which i wish i had started drinking alot sooner, but its never too late! Try it asap, you wont regret it!

  • Review:
    Latte flavour Hurricane XS: Mixabillity, for some reason, is better than smooth choc, and choc mint. A very welcome alternative to the normal choc, vanilla, strawberry etc flavouring's which i have been buying from myprotein.com for a couple of years now. I find all of the flavourings on offer to be far too sweet, as I personally dont have a sweet tooth. But I put up with it because the effectiveness of the product is great, and anything is better than unflavoured. I do love coffee, so was delighted to find a Latte flavour on offer. However, i'v been using it nearly a week now and it is also too sweet. Its more like a Latte flavoured ICE Cream sort of taste. I do find that if I mix a 70g serving, with 350-400ml milk / water (as suggested), and then add a tea spoon full of instant coffee, much better! Try it. Regards, James

  • Review:
    I bought Chocolate and nuts flavour, amazing taste! However, I guess you may feel tired if you used every day. Taste like Kinder bueno or Kitkat. I mix it with creatine to improve recovery and boost my muscles. However the mix is a bit grummy and doesn't get compact with water. I haven't tried with milk

    mixes very very well, i mix with milk to make it extra creamier. only took a couple of days to notice the results. now manage to get out of bed the next day instead of rolling out onto the floor in pain.
  • Barry Thompson (23/11/2011)
  • Review:
    Mocha review - excellent mixability with enough water and shaker, if too sweet can add more water it works well and tastes very good. Recommend this flavour
  • Philip Marsh (23/11/2011)
  • Review:
    I am a regular user of Hurricaine XS and i have found it does help with Strength and in particular when i have a break for a holiday, xmas etc i do notice that it takes longer for my muscle to begin to breakdown, i think this must be in part to do with the HMB. Be careful with the flavours though, for example i tried toffee the other day and it is the most sickly tasting powder ever to the point where i am considering throwing away the 2Kg i have left. Stick with the basic flavours is my advice.
  • Hunain Rizwan (10/11/2011)
  • Review:
    I bought the latte flavour. At first it tasted good but it's extremely sweet followed by a bitter taste of something like coffee. Was easy to drink for the first week but now it makes me sick. Mixes pretty well and is very effective. I have used this product for just two weeks now and can already notice the difference. Definitely a must buy if you are looking to build some serious muscles but do not even bother to try the latte flavour.
  • kirbalicious (09/11/2011)
  • Review:
    real noticeable results great product but advised to use only 2months consecutive and 1 month off, creatine will give some dehydrating effects after heavy workout sessions.
  • Iain Macmillan (08/11/2011)
  • Review:
    Mixability - Mixes well with little foaming. you do get some small sandy bits so you have to "down" the shake in order to get the small bits of creatine. but what do you expect with creatine incoporated. Taste - I bought the Mocha flavour to give it a shot, and it does taste like mocha. i mean its not as enjoyable as a hot coffee for obvious reasons! but still, impressive. I always have my shakes with water for faster absorbption and also gives a better indication of how good the flavouring actually is. as previously stated it is very sweet. more like a mocha with 3 sugars, but thats not really an issue. Effectiveness - used around half a bag and taking 2 shakes a day (2 scoops in each) morning and night, alongside 2 basic whey shakes throughout the day to keep optimum protein amounts for bullding muscle. I am actually very surprised that i am not gaining fat, however, appear to be losing fat and gaining lean muscle, which i was not expecting. Obviously this can be due to training, but from my experience, the Hurricane definitely has some input on this. Maybe the hmb is helping reduce musle degredation, who knows. Good stuff though, and certainly helping a lot with giving me a quick recovery. I really DO notice if i do not use it. Overall I am impressed. The only negative (which isn't really a negative - more a question to MyProtein reps) is an hour after consuming the shake and using the gents, urine really does stink like Mocha. God knows what flavourings/sweeteners are going in to cause this human coffee machine effect, so a slight worry for me, but not going to stop me using it any time soon.

  • Dan Oliver (02/11/2011)
  • Review:
    I have been roughly the same weight for years and don't put on weight or muscle easily. Used morning and evening for about 3 weeks, and have put on 1.5kg (about 4lbs) already. This is great, but I'm not sure how much of the weight gain is due to water retention from the Creatine...so I'm going to try the Creatine-less Total Gainer so I have something to compare it with. The taste is OK, much better than what I had before, although it is very sweet (Chocolate Smooth). I also found that when using Hurricane XS I didn't ache so much the next day and recovery time was much much quicker, would definitely recommend this product.
  • Lee Hentschel (01/11/2011)
  • Review:
    Cant recommend this enough. The only downside is that it made me put on weight. Having said that I put on over 10kg and grew like mad from april to august while using this. Use it with CEE tablets. As for taste - all I hear about is people whining it doesnt taste nice. Its a means to an end, to make you grow so just down it and let it do its work!

    Ive been going to the gym for a few years, i have always had frequent bouts of tonsillitis which have caused me to lose drastic weight after i have gained it. Ive steadily but surely got bigger, being 12 stone at the beginning of the year and a little over 11 after i had my tonsils removed, i am now at a much heavier 13 stone though i have now started to find it abit more difficult to gain muscle, and decided to start using shakes again, i hadnt for about 3 years. I ordered this product on Saturday night and recieved it on Monday afternoon despite using the super saver delivery option, super saver service indeed! I have always found protein shakes to be well...disgusting and difficult to mix...but i was pleasantly suprised, i ordered the Raspberry flavour, it seems to mix in about 4 shakes and although it may not have tasted like a McDonalds milkshake, it was certainly the best tasting protein shake ive had yet! It will work because its loaded with Carbs, Protein and Creatine, it doesnt work if the person doesnt work!

    started using this product about 3 weeks ago and im already seeing and feeling the results already. It maybe not the best tasteing shake ever but it can be stomached , i have the choc mint and i take it with water for the full effect of the ingrediants . overall this shake does exactly what it says you add lean muscle and feel full if used as a meal replacement but know your body is getting the best proteins available . i use pulse half an hour before training andf this after trainingand it works well . thanks my protein

    I haven't been using this very long but i have already noticed a massive difference. I am personally a rower and row for The South Coast and need high strength in lower and upper body as well as good endurance. I have found this product very good as you can control how much you build up. Also I became injured due to rugby and tore muscle in my chest, i went to the gym 2-4 times and within that noticed the protein had helped the process of recovery. By using the cable machines i am back to full sporting order in half the expected recovery time. AMAZING! <3

  • Review:
    Been getting slow and steady results for the last 5 months with Whey Protein Isolate but decided to try a 2.5kg pouch of hurricane xs and see how it went. Been very pleased with the results, not amazing gains (thats just my genetics) but definite improvement. Ordered the 5kg pouch and looking forward to seeing what gains I can make by Christmas. Unflavoured didn't taste so good to begin with but I got used to it pretty quick (also add half a tablespoon of coco powder to help it along).
  • Aubrey Tucker (17/10/2011)
  • Review:
    Hurricane XS - After noting the rather dubious list of flavourings and the damning reviews of being over sweetened I opted for the unflavoured version. To be honest, on it's own (I prefer milk to water) it's pretty unpalatable. TASTE TOP TIP: Add 4 teaspoons of Nesquik, your choice of flavour (I prefer Strawberry) and this becomes a very pleasant shake indeed - I almost look forward to it! MIXABILITY TOP TIP: If you add about 1/4 of the milk initially and stir it into a thick paste then add the remaining milk and flavouring this mixes perfectly with no lumps. I can't really comment on it's effectiveness as I've only had 2 shakes but I'm looking forward to some visible results soon...

    Verry tasty product taking it in phases and its doing me good, noticed a slight difference but nothing huge, im a hard gainer so going to try mp max total gainer and see how that works. My strength is increasing but not my mass as much so i think a gainer will help.

    Great product, gets the job done. One issue though is some of the flavours are absolutely disgusting. I bought the toffee flavour to see what it was like, and I tell you what, I have only had a few servings of it since buying it a few months ago - it really does taste that bad. I have previously tried the banana and chocolate flavours and they are manageable, I just wish I had kept to those flavours. The product is extremely easy to mix (MP seem to have made the shakes a lot thinner than I remember as this stuff is literally like water now compared to having the consistency of a milkshake before) and will definitely purchase again.

  • Review:
    started at 10st 2lb, Use to take rival products for 3/4 months and put on about 8lbs as i struggle putting on weight, after that time my weight increase stopped and started to decrease which was demoralising and expensive so i switched to hurricane xs just before christmas and within 3 months i got up to 11st 8lb (mostly muscle) started to feel great, and started to look good which my mates commented on my size, which earned me the name 'tenser' in stead of spencer lol In feburary i tore 30% of my cartilage off my shoulder while hitting a serve in tennis, so ive had surgery, its now October (17 weeks) after surgery and im back in training again. So i have gone all out with making my diet really good and having all my supplements including XS and so far i have started to see great results. I have got to 11st 7lb and lost most of the fat that i got from being off training for ages. I definatley recommend this product if you find it hard to put weight on (muscle mass not fat). Taste wise i got mint chocolate and it tasted nice at 1st but then it just got too sickly, so switched to smooth chocolate and its reasonable, not too sweet, easy to down after a session.

    If this stuff was in a ufc heavy weight contest XS comes in as the undisputed champ of All in ones, LB for LB this exceeds other brads in it's shear £ for weight ratio and packs a punch to boot, it's key ingredients out do expensive more commercial brands by the numbers and are of a superior quality, you don't get no gimmick or hype and useless "fillers" it does it's job and it does it beyond expectation, I have unflavored and add flavdrops to suit my taste, in the morning i also add some extra impact whey and 30 mins before work out some extra creapure to give that extra ko punch and balance the ingredients, 3 servings a day . in the 2 months I've been using I've gone from 150lb bloat to a hard 180lb monster I'm on a 4 day split 2 day cardio, i wont be using any other all in one again!!

    Good, effective product. Mixes fine - I use 3 Scoops (130g-ish) in a shaker, with 250ml Milk / 200ml water, then down the hatch. Ive got the chocolate nut, not one id buy again, has a very chemically after taste. This is not a dig as I have a weak stomach at the best of times - But does anyone find they have a bad stomach following drinking this? Since i've started using it, about 30 - 45 minutes of drinking im looking for a loo! Not sure if its this product or just me!! Nothing else has changed in my diet tho - Thinking it could just be the change of protein/creatine? All in all a good product!

  • Review:
    5kg - Unflavoured... This is a monumental occassion, as I never bother writing reviews for any purchases I have made online, but I really thought this product deserved some comments. I ordered this on a Saturday, used the Yodel free delivery service and it arrived on the following Monday - Superb service. I'd read the other reviews and was expecting this powder to be frothy and fairly bad to drink. Having made my first shake today, without any new fangled mixing balls, nor even a plastic mesh thingy, I can state that it mixed very well, absolutely no frothing whatsoever, you have to bare in mind it has creatine and oats in it, so it is grainy and does taste a little porridgey. The taste is a little tangy, again, this is due to the HMB and creatine in it, the flavoured ones would obviously taste nicer, but then you've got the nasty sweetners to worry about. I mixed mine with 300ml water, 1 x large scoop equals about 32 to 35grams powder in each scoop, so 2 scoops. I always opt for flavourless, purely due to my concerns about aspartame and other sweetners, so to make it taste a little better I popped in a little of my daughters raspberry milkshake flavouring. I initially thought the price was a little expensive as my last lot of protein was the smooth milk protein, for 5kg's I paid about £30, but when you think of the other ingredients in this bad boy you start to realise its cost effectiveness. Also I am a lazy beggar and cant be bothered opening up bag after bag of individual ingredients and measuring each one out just to make my shakes up I cant comment on the effectiveness of this product yet as its only day one using it, in lieu of my usual Myprotein smooth milk protein, however creatine is creatine and HMB I have always found to be fairly effective, so I dont think I will be dissapointed.

    This has a grainy texture compared to other companies all-in-ones. I can deal with that. What I couldn't deal with is the insane sweetness of it.

  • Review:
    This was the first protein powder I used, and after reading the reviews on this site I ended up getting the Chocolate Smooth flavoured option - It tastes like I'm drinking chocolate flavoured aspartame (i.e not nice). I'd recommend this flavour if you enjoy the taste of sweeteners, otherwise I'd go for the flavourless and add your own. I see a lot of people complaining about mixability, and honestly I found it to be a bit grainy as well. However, I tried with warmer water, which greatly reduced the grainyness and actually improved the flavour when mixed with water. Try it! Just make sure you don't use boiling water as this can have bad effects on the protein.

Mind you I train 6 times a week with 4 weights days 1.5-2hrs each, 1 heavy cardio day 1hr spinning and 1 Ashtanga Yoga day 1hr. So recovery is key! This stuff does both, improve size and recovery! I went for the unflavoured option because it's slightly cheaper and also it has virtually no taste so I can add whatever flavour I want in the morning oats breakfast for example blueberries, honey, etc. It doesn't really mix well even in a shaker but that's little to worry about. However one piece of advise. Keep your old empty tubs! This was the first product that I bought in this packaging and the sealing mechanism was damaged. MP kindly sent me an empty tub but this will be a lesson learned for me. I now have 2 tubs and will keep them. Great stuff overall!

    First thing you notice is that it is a bit grainy no matter how much you shake it. I got the choc nut flavour which was ok but didn't really taste of chocolate or nuts. It was also very sweet. To be honest most of these shakes aren't very tasty but after a hard workout I don't really care as long as it works. The best points about Hurricane XS are the important ones though. I became much stronger after a week which equates to one body part worked and recovered in 7 days. Every muscle group increases in strength. When you are getting the right nutrients at the right time you can't go wrong. My biggest downfall is overeating but with this I seemed to recover quicker and not be as hungry until a few hours after my workout was finished. At the price and maybe there is a nicer flavour I have yet to try this is the best available.

    Didn't mix as good as i thought it would with the MP shaker, grainy at the bottom. Strawberry and cream flavour tastes nice and I felt it was a great recovery shake. Took it for a month, working 4-5 times a week, taking it on my rest days aswell.

    Although not something to base the whole product on, the intial taste and mixability of the product is always important because it's the only thing you'll be able to notice for the first few days! I've been using the chocolate mint flavoured Hurricane XS for the past month now, but the first week, I couldn't bear the stuff; I was used to the sweet, smooth taste of the cookies and cream impact why protein, but this, despite using the ball and beaker, was esepcially grainy with water and tastes VERY "chemical", and the mint is somewhat overpowering and excessive! However, milk makes the whole thing significantly more bearable, and onto what REALLY matters- gains. I have noticed a fair difference, visually. Bulk? Not so much because I've been doing low weights, but reps have increased slightly and muscles are more defined. Despite the taste and grainy-ness when mixed with water, I'm happy with the product, but next time I may buy another flavour.

    I got the Banana flavour and it is so sweet and sickly i had to just take 1 scoop twice as putting 2 scoops in one shaker felt lik drinking sugar and made me feel ill later. Why i didn't buy chocolate flavour who knows but in future that's all i'm having. It was hard for me to judge this against a rival product (which gave me great results previously) as i didn't train as hard but i wasn't dissapointed with the results for the effort i put in. Again i stopped taking it and lost the motivation as it never settled in my stomach good.

    Super fast delivery as always. Choc Smooth was sold out so went with Choc Nut. It is a tad sweet but I'm used to unflavoured whey so a treat for me. Mixes very very well with a shaker with the aggitator fitted inside. Hopefully this will be a good replacement for the overpriced rival products which tbh I did get good results from but begrudged the price tag. I'll report back in a few weeks as to performance. :)

    Starting using MP about 18 months ago, never got round to doing a review. I'm on my 5th 2.5 KG bag of chocolate smooth. I'm not one to really judge protein products on how they taste because it's their effectiveness that counts. But, chocolate smooth is actually pretty nice. Mixes very easily and with a few good shakes goes down very smoothly. Effectiveness-wise couldn't be better. Been on and off the product, but during my last heavy pre-season rugby phase I was doing gym 3/4 times a week and hurricane xs helped my put on about 3.5 kilos in about 5 weeks. Put on almost no fat with it as well. Hurricane XS is the product that keeps me buying MP; effective, tasty and about half the price of other brands with all the benefits.

    Hi, First off, ive used this for three weeks after coming back off of travelling for a month. Before i left i was muscular and lean. When i got back, i was a mess! Great holiday, but really did leave me fat, and with a lot less size. So i was looking for a shake that was not just protein, but a great post workout shake (added carbs). After deciding between this and recovery xs, i am pleased. In three weeks, i have surpassed where i was, although thanks to muscle memory and new and more intense workouts, i still dont think the mass would have come this quick. Im also using the supplements noted below, but this is definitely a worth while product. If you have any problems with mixability, it would be the very refined oats that are included. Mix 4 to 5 times and let it settle every time for a minute, and its the best you'll get. Great shake! Cant wait to see the effects in 3 months.

    Just recieved this product! got the vanilla flavour and this shake is absolutly disgusting-its like drinking sand suppose its the creatine! its make me sick and not looking forward to drinking it, compare to true whey, impact whey and total gainer.

  • Luke Whitehead (26/07/2011)
  • Review:
    Disappointed. As the nutritional information suggests, only 30g of protein per 70g shake, with a few carbs and a small portion of Creatine. You would be better buying 2kg of whey protein and 1kg of creatine and making your own shake. I've not noticed any surplus gains that I wouldn't have achieved without this product. Personally, I wouldn't buy it again.
  • Dan Meagher (19/07/2011)
  • Review:
    Mixability - Mixes well, although quite grainy which I assume is the creatine. Also, I would adivse to stir this shake rather than 'shake' it as it creates a large amount of froth. As stupid as that may sound, it makes your body feel as if it taking in a lot more than it actually is Taste - I can only advise you not to get Strawberry and Cream. It is far too sweet and very sickly. I actually have to hold my nose and down it in one now. Effectivness - Yeah it works, you'll notice its effectiveness when you don't take it before a workout. As for the recommended guidelines, there is no reason to take it twice a day. The main reason being the large amount of carbs. I would suggest taking it before your workout.

    Got the mint chocolate flavour and it tastes unreal!! mix it with full fat milk and it just tastes like an after 8 milkshake that you pay like £3 from a milkshake shop except its good for you (trying to bulk hence the full fat milk). Bought this after taking a very similar but branded and about three times more expensive supplement (I'm sure most of you know what product I'm talking about) which by the way was by far the worst tasting supplement I've ever had but had good results so was abit of shock when got nearly same product except miles cheaper and didn't only not make me nearly puke but I actually enjoy drinking, about to order a new bag cheers myprotein!

    I've now been on Hurricane XS for 4 weeks, I started using it primarily to get some good quality protein, and also aid in getting enough calories throughout a hectic day, as apparently I wasn't eating enough. The smooth chocolate flavour i've been using with water is absolutely fine, seriously, there's nothing wrong with it at all, i'd actually goes as far as to say I enjoy drinking it. Every now and then I get a small 'clump' in the mixer, but generally, again, it's fine. Effectiveness is difficult to judge, as i've changed my diet dramatically at the same time as taking the shakes, but i've had noticeable gains, and am now making my second order as i'm running low. It satiates my hunger completely, and in such a short time, i've lost quite considerable body fat and toned up. I'll add that my exercise has remained largely unchanged. So it's definately what i'm consuming which is making the difference. Top stuff, and I don't usually do reviews, but I felt compelled to do so.

    Used this for 4 weeks and noticed a definiate strength gain on final sets. I piled on some size too over the 4 weeks training 5 days out of 7. I got the mint choc flavour which is a bit too sickly for me. Mixability - you have to give it a proper shake and occasionally I still founf a few lumps but nothing I would choke on. All in all a great product and alot cheaper than high street competitors. I will be purchasing again on my next creatine phase but I'll go for toffee or strawberry flavour next time. Nice one MP!

    Over the period of about a month I have used Hurricane XS and witnessed great physical improvements, to the fact I was actually shocked. I actually didn't think it would affect me that much, but I have increased in size a lot. Right now I am about a month after finishing my 2.5kg and am about to purchase some more. What is quite apparent while on Hurricane XS, is the water retention you gain, this is probably due to the creatine. You look like you've put a bit of fat on, but in actual fact it's just water, as a month later, after using Hurricane, the water seems to have disappeared and I've been left with an incredible amount of muscle mass than before I used it, trust me, this stuff is actually class! It's like a cheaper and more effective version of competitor's products. Hope this all made sense lads haha Cheers MP

    My initial impression of this product was that it tasted far too watery, I struggled to finish my first serving... it felt watery and gritty. I tried another serving with 200ml of water and this was much nicer, I definitely wouldn't mix it with 300ml as instructed. Hurricane XS is a good all in one, when mixed with 200ml of water it's pretty easy to digest and mixes well. didn't leave me feeling bloated. As far as working, I have a very high work load... on top of my own training I instruct several classes/take clients running etc and I feel like it supports me well. For the price the ingredients do well to match it's competitors. Unfortunately I have to knock my score down to a 3 because of the use of Quinoline, Sunset Yellow and Carmoisine for colouring, the are suspected to have adverse affect on health and are carciogens... disappointing. However these are only in the banana and raspberry flavours. The chocolate smooth is pretty much just cocoa powder. Chocolate Smooth gets a 4-5... The products with unneeded E numbers are lucky to get a 3 from me.

    Ordered 2.5 kg of Mint Choc...gonna get this outta the way 1st. Yes it is a very strong flavour and quite sweet, you will get used to it after a couple of days and i've tasted ALOT worse! Mixes quite well, I would shake for a good 30 seconds (workout permitting) and occassionally find a lump or 2 but nothing to choke on. Gains wise, I pound on 10 pounds in a month, some water retenetion from the creatine but mostly muscle that stayed once the 4 week rotation was over. Didn't want to plough too much creatine into my body for longer than that. I took this mainly as a post workout drink and sometimes in the morning after breakfast on training days. Noticed good strengh gains in the period of taking XS too, adding around 20 kg to my bench over the 4 weeks. (not alot of gain you say) well not bad I think as only been back in the gym for 2 months prior to starting taking this All in One. I would recommend if you want a cheap/effective no nonsense all in one, a rival product is probably a tiny bit better but for the price you cant go wrong with Hurricane. I will be ordering again in 10 weeks for the next load up session! 4/5

    Got this as part of a bundle, had my first shakes today and I have to say mixes great in a shaker, no little lumps of powder. As people have said the taste is quite sweet, but I would rather have a sweet shake I can drink than one I can barely get down me! I can't say about results, but in terms of the other factors seems to be a great product.

    Ive been using MyProtein for a while now, after switching from a well known vastly marketed suppliment company, and I can honestly say I cannot fault it in any way whatsoever. I get great gains from your products but would recommend Hurricane XS for anyone wishing to build good quality, lean muscle. My review here is long over due to be honest. Just recieved another Unflavoured Hurricane XS with really fast delivery, but this time with a free toffee tasting supplment to put in my shake. Nice little suprise! Thanks again, by far the best value and most effective suppliments in my eyes.

    Have been using this for a few weeks now, can't understand the griping about the taste, if you are bothered about the flavour of the shake buy one from Maccy D's.... Mixability has been criticised, however, I have found that if you push the powder through a kitchen sieve before mixing it mixes up brilliantly. Gains have been good so far, trying to strengthen up after knee surgery (badly wasted quads...) hoping continued use will also help with endurance for training.

    Just changing my review as I commented on the sunset yellow colouring and said I wouldn't be using again because of this. I've now seen that it's only in the Banana flavour so it's not a problem as I have the choc smooth/mint. As soon as I started using it people noticed gains. It mixes very easily using the blender (5-10 hard shakes is all it takes!) and with water it tastes OK. With milk it tastes like a milk shake! Very good value and delivery is usually next day. Well worth the money.

  • Review:
    Okay Ill be short and sharp in this. 1. Taste - Great from Smooth Chocolate, would definately recommend, I only use water since I find Milk to actually make it very sweet! (leading to these "its too sweet" reviews) 2. Mixability- lumpy and takes alot of stirring but no pain no gain (taking 30 seconds to stir isn't really much hassle to be honest) 3. Gains- Definately saw gains, nice energy boost, and it really is great for morning supplementation and even as a small meal supplement as a "go between". 4. Additives - Yes it does have additives, but one is only in the Banana flavour (Quinoline Yellow), and for people panicking on the reviews, these additives are also in many Galaxy chocolate products so chill! 5. Overall- Very very nice product for beginners or even hardcore trainers. If looking for ultra clean bulk/cutting I would recommend maybe reducing the amount per portion (say 40g rather than 70g) and taking it 2-3 times like that per day. You get the same amount but without the blood sugar spike! But nice one MP!

It makes me wonder if you can't put yourself through a drink not quite as nice as nesquick how do you man up enough to do a painful workout.

    Just had my first pouch of hurricane XS and I'm a couple of days in. I can only comment on taste at the minute, but thought I would add a review because it was a concern having read some negative reviews. I've bought chocolate smooth and its not bad at all. It is a bit sweet for my taste but i dont have a sweet tooth. There is a slight poweriness to the drink but I attribute that to the oat content. It also doesnt seem to have bothered my guts like some people have said. I cant imagine people finding it so bad that they bin it after one drink. Its quite nice! And it mixes well with semiskimmed.

    bought my first batch of this a while back and noticed massive improvents in size gains and recovery time almost immediatley after a couple of weeks the size gains tailed off but i was only training every other day and having one shake on the day i trained only. I decided to up my intake to one shake every morning with two scoops instant oats added and one shake after training on my training day too and soon started to see improvents again. so much so i recently ordered two more 2.5kg bags of hurricane and a 5kg bag of instant oats. taste of unflavoured is VILE but mixed with nesquik is ok. i just bought some banana and toffee flavdrops with my last order and they are pretty good i put ten drops per shake in which will last me 100 shakes so at 7.99 its not bad compared to the price of nesquik which also has extra sugar e.t.c which flavdrops dont. they dnt taste anything special but if your a wuss like me they definitley take the edge off and make unflavored drinkable. will definitley buy hurricane xs in the future

I've tried them all over the last 15 years. Strawberry tastes great, its mixes well with a few good in a my protein shaker. However... I have just read a warning on the back of my latest purcase "contains Quinoline Yellow & Carmoisine". This is banned in U.S. but still legal in UK. Its a food colourant which is proven to trigger cancer with excessive use. Brilliant. Glad I've been drinking this stuff twice a day for the last 365 days" The two food colourants mentioned are not used for the strawberry flavour, so you don't need to worry.

    Been taking this supplement a few days now. Haven't noticed a massive difference yet, obviously, but I do feel less knackered and like I can give more in my workout which is great. Drinking it twice a day is a lot of creatine so it's important to drink lots of water whilst taking this. Speaking of which, only fault is if you let it settle for a moment the creatine settles at the bottom so give it a swill before you swig! Taste is really great though after trying a few supplement drinks out there (Chocolate flavour).

    Recently bought this stuff and heard it tastes bad but just expected it to taste as bad as the usual... but this is horrible. I've not had it long enough to see the results and I don't normally care about taste because I just down it but, i'm burping the taste for about a hour later. But it does mix really easly.

    Taste is not too bad and the gains were pretty good but just can't get over how badly it mixes. Constantly left little 'bits' at the bottom meaning I never finished a whole shake. Even when using a fork they wudnt completely go. Will be tryin another product next time

    I bought the 'Chocolate Smooth' version, compared to unflavoured, it tastes like a dream. Nevertheless it is a little sweet, think I'd try a different flavour next time. I've only used it for a week now, so I can't comment on its effectiveness. Mixes really well, using the standard myprotein shaker.

    This stuff works great and is value for money in that sense. In fact it works nearly as well as another more famous brand with similar ingredients, and is better value. However, the strawberry flavored one tastes absolutely putrid. I am in full agreement with others on this issue. It is the HMB which has an overpowering chemical taste. It works but drinking it really is a horrible experience. All i can say is NO PAIN NO GAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Such a good product, couldn't reccommend this stuff anymore! Have one in the morning and I'm good to do til I train after work. Would get 5/5 if it wasn't for the taste (strawberry cream) but thats something I can put up with due to this stuff being so effective. Happy training all! :)

    I'm a seriously hardgainer but for the first time I have found some decent quicker gains with this powder. Really helps those struggling to get a really high calorie intake, especially if used in-between meals to really boost those calories. Who cares about taste and so on, you can drink it and that's what matters. However, if you do care, I've got choc mint and it's just fine. Recovery time is definitely shortened but only with good food intake too, you can't 100% rely on a shake for recovery if you're a hardgainer to be honest. Great product, definitely recommend.

    i ordered some choc nut by mistake as i was in a rush and after reading the reviews on here i was a bit apprehensive about taking it. i can safely say that most of the people here just put bad reviews on because they think its funny because i think the choc nut is the best thing i have ever tasted. i had to reorder after only 4 days i was hooked on the stuff and was drinking it as a replacement for my fluid intake. i have been on the training scene a long time and have tried some nasty stuff the worst which had me in tears as it was so repulsive but the choc nut is a delight and mixes well with orange juice. 9 thumbs up :-)

    I've put off taking protein shakes for a few years but I'm glad I saw sense and jumped on the band wagon! I bought hurricane xs after being told about it from a good friend, who luckily is the same build as me so I could see the potential working on him. I bought banana flavour and it tastes horrible with water! However with milk it tastes just like milkshake. My advice would be always drink it with milk, as you get the good flavour and the added nutrients and protein in the milk. I noticed huge increases in the first 4 weeks of use, managing to add up to 20kg onto the weights in the gym. Hurricane xs has also aided my weight increase, I found it very hard to gain any meaningful weight before using hurricane xs. A good buy. Top Product!

    Love this stuff, so much cheaper and simple then buying separate bags of acids/protein/creatine etc. Needless to say it works a charm as well, one PWO and one either at night or in the morning. Gets me back on my feet for the next days training with noticeable gains.

    I have two scoops with water twice a day and it mixes really well and the taste is decent enough (I have Banana) although those who buy protein for the taste shouldn't buy protein!.

This has really helped me push towards my training goals @ThrowingHands
  • Alex Gemmell (15/03/2011)
  • Review:
    Very good post workout shake. There is a slight, soft grittiness but that's clearly from the finely milled oats. Everything else in the powder dissolves instantly. If you leave it standing there can be a very slight build up of "sludge" at the bottom from the oats but that's solved by a quick shake to float them around again. The taste is quite sweet but not bad at all.

    First time I have ordered anything from My Protein. I purchased this as I prefer all in ones instea of having creatine, HMB protein. I have a scoop with my oats first thing in morning, two scoops after my weights. Initially I notice a good increase in strength and appear bigger too. I had the chocolte mint flavour, got to say it is by far tthe best flavoured powder I have ever had! Only downside was delivery I ordered Thursday night nd it said next day it came Monday afternoon. I was expecting this apart from an email I recieved Thursday night saying if you recieved this before 9pm it was 830 it will be with you tomorrow. But I think it was more to do with the courier than My Protein.

  • Review:
    I found that Hurricane XS was good as a recovery drink, when I had it after a gym session I really felt better the next day, no aches or pains such as when I'm not taking a shake. However, the taste of the Chocolate Nut is absolutely awful! I wanted the nutrients but couldn't stomach it with water, milk was better but still a rancid after-taste. As for the nutritional breakdown and price, I bought it a while ago and can't think why I didn't go for something with more protein, I'll be going for a weight gainer next even if it's more expensive. Saying that, £27.49 isn't that good for 2.2 KG. the weight gainer I'm looking at is £50 for 5kg! Far better value, with more than double the protein, four times the carbs and full of extras like digestive enzymes, amino acids, and other useful stuff. Anyway, good as recovery drink, don't go for Choc. Nut, and you may even want to reconsider buying it as it's not that great value either.

    This is the second time I have used HXS, I have to say that when comparred to normal whey it rains suppreame, definitally notice greater lean muscle devlopment and seen strength and endurance gains, I take two scoops after training, and two scoops of whey in the morning before work. Recovery times were also alot fast and a lot less painfull when compared to whey. This product is just a cheaper equally as good version as a well known competitor brand, works out at over a pound per serving cheaper than its rival. Its money better in your pocket than someone elses. No I am not a sales rep from mp, just heavily impressed with HXS in terms off quality and value for money.

    Been using Hurrican XS for a year now and its the best all in one shake I've used for recovery. I've tried them all over the last 15 years. Strawberry tastes great, its mixes well with a few good in a my protein shaker. However... I have just read a warning on the back of my latest purcase "contains Quinoline Yellow & Carmoisine". This is banned in U.S. but still legal in UK. Its a food colourant which is proven to trigger cancer with excessive use. Brilliant. Glad I've been drinking this stuff twice a day for the last 365 days

    I bought this whilst it was on the offer not long ago, I was a bit reluctant to choose the Choc mint flavour however a few reasons swayed me to try it, Wow. absolutely incredible, Really nice flavour, goes down really well, mixes really well and most importantly has everything you need for a recovery shake. For all those people whinging about mixability, taste etc, Man up. if youre not into these types of supplements then join the Chess club and drink tea. Awesome product, will definately be putting it on my "Regular order list"

    I have just received my Hurricane for the first time. I thought I would be experimental and try the choc/mint, if I am honest the flavour is far to strong and almost disgusting. I wish I stuck with my normal unflavoured or Vanilla. The product does mix quite well, although it is very grainy.

    Totally agree with the comments on noticeable signs of change - and recovery rate is excellent too. I really would recommend this product. I take this twice as instructed (once in morning & again post work out), but I feel I am missing out on recovery AFTER my workout as I’m use to taking a shake for recovery after. Is there anything here so can anyone recommend or would you say that all I need is pretty much built into the overall XS Hurricane formula?

    This product has to be one of the best tasting protein powders available. It has a good amount of calories and incorporates all of the neccesery ingredients your body wants pre work out. As far as effectiveness for me personally I haven't seen much of a change but the all in one element makes it much more convenient than buying creapure, carbs etc seperately. Not to mention the great price!

    as many others have said, it is effective, if you can take the taste it's disgusting, i understand raspberry is the worst, but for god sake DON'T BUY ITTT!!!! it tastes vile, and makes you feel siick with a headache, quite ill really. This week I've mixed it with loads of stuff, and have been able to take 2 a day and am seeing results It can make you thirsty, but it's good to drink a lot of water anyway, Punchline: Very effective, rasp. tastes terrible, i will be buying again, but defiantly not raspberry.

    Been taking this for about a week now, decided to go for the banana flavour instead of choc smooth and it tastes great with milk or water, cannot comment on gains due to the short time using the product, my only concern is that you are recommended to take 2x 70g serving a day, which gives you a total of 10g of creapure, from what ive heard 5g of creapure is all you need and i hope taking 10g per day isnt gonna give me any problems.

    ok first off this product is simple. its their to aid gaining muscle/weight. it does exactly that no fuss no hassle, take the stated amounts before and after a work out and you will gain in no time. with the amino acids i put on roughly 4lb in one week, all in muscle. i started on this in january after finishing cutting with true whey. i was 11st 4lb in january. im currently 12st 5lb and my body fat % is currently 13%. it does taste bitty and im on the rasberry flavour which i would NOT recomend. its too sweet and sickly but thats not enough to not have the product. the results speak for themselves!!

    Just finished my first batch and thought I would post a review. Mix-ability - Poor at best. Using MP's Blender Bottle, no matter how long you shake it for, it just doesn't mix well. Has a fine grain sand texture. Mixing it with 1 scoop of Impact Blend Whey helps a lot. Taste - Not bad but I don't expect it to taste like a field of strawberries and chocolate. Effectiveness - Excellent. The creatine has a habit of making you drink a LOT more water so be prepared for the constant bathroom trips! Overall - Definitely would recommend.

    I have been using this for around 2 months now, i have seen significant gains in both muscle size and strength. My recovery time is also greatly improved. I am not one to really care for taste and mixability because it's not what matters but it tastes great and mixes almost perfectly apart from some white lumps, probably the creapure, i definitely recommend the Choc Mint flavour. Great product overall my advice is to combine this with a high protein, high calorie but healthy diet and to push yourself to the limit in training sessions to see maximum gains.

    I'm really not happy with the Hurricane XS to be completely honest, the mixability is horrific. Lumpy and gritty, it's like mixing a protein shake with sand unless you sit and shake it for 5 - 10 minutes. The results are showing, however, if you buy protein for the taste/mixability. I'd avoid this product. If not, buy it!

    Well, I gave this product a pretty scolding review when I purchased the chocolate flavour. But I decided to give it one more shot by trying the unflavoured powder... I can honestly say it was a VERY good move. With milk there is only a slight hint of taste and it is quite easy to drink. I don't miss that sweetness at all. PLUS it means I ca mix in my own different flavours should I choose to. Take my advice, and by this UNFLAVOURED. Now it's a quality product !

    Honestly, the combination of ingredients that myprotein use in this 'all-in-one' are fantastic. There seems to be a great balance for those who wish to gain lean mass, particularly you hard-gainers ( I am certainly one!) Now, regardless of whether or not you say the taste should not matter... it does. For this product atleast. Be prepared to have your head blown off by the sweetness. It's absolutely ridiculous. It's not even the kind of bearable sweetness.. it's just unpleasant and made me sick to my stomach. For value and content... its great. For taste... it leaves me unable to comment on its effectiveness. Dissapointing =/

    I bought this having already used **COMPETITOR**. The numbers are all virtually the same, so performance isn't really an issue. Taste is OK (I bought smooth choc), and if you mix with the liquid egg white it does give a really easy protein boost, and tastes the same. HOWEVER...the greatest bug bear I have with this, which is almost enough to put me off recommending this product is the fact that I have to sieve each and every serving as MP seem to have large lumps of a white powder throughout the bag. These lumps don't mix and make me gag should I drink them. I have no idea what it is that forms these clumps, but no other all in one has them, and I would change back to Twister if this problem continues.

    Took this for 3 months as part of a strength and weight increase. I'm a hard gainer but seen my best ever weight increase with this stuff. 5kg in 3 months. I dare say diet change probably played more of a role in this but Hurricane certainly helped. The taste was the only problem for me. I had chocolate and while it did taste chocolatey and had no bad after taste etc it was just far too sweet for me. My wife has a sweet tooth and when she tried it even she thought it was really sweet. I had to just neck them down as best I could

    Just got the Choc smooth flavour Hurricane XS and it tastes great. I wouldn't change a a thing. Doesn't mix as smooth as some of the other protein shakes on MP but thats because of the creatine and oats. You're not going to get this type of product to be like blended ice cream. A scoop in a MP shaker and a third full of water makes a great tasting thick shake. Only just switched to it so not sure about the gains yet but the other reviews are favourable so I'll see. Brilliant stuff.

    Wow.....What a taste, Choc mint is really bad. It feels like you've swallowed mouth wash with a hint of paint stripper. Half of the battle with these things is finding a taste that you enjoy to keep you going back to it when you need it. I now just feel I have to get another product as the next 3-4 weeks drinking this alone would be painful. Definitely a flavour to stay away from. (regular choc mint drinker by the way) I will add another review on effectiveness when I've given it a chance but after 4 shakes I definitely know it tastes minging and thought others should know

    Been taking this for three weeks now. Unfortunately i started taking it as my rowing training up in intensity just before a race. My recovery was vastly improved (managed to train 8 times a week with not much aching - 4 cardio/4 weights). I lost about 2kgs but all my lifts in the gym have increased and my friends noticed that i was looking a lot bigger and defined (creatine??). If I can lose weight and get stronger whilst doing heavy cardio, imagine what this will do if you just focussed on weights!! Strawberry tastes really sweet and horrible, but just mix it with a bit of squash and it tastes quite nice!

    Cant knock this product, im taking 2 scoops of smooth choc with 2 scoops of instand oats and have seen pretty impressive gains over the last 3 months since i started. Only down side is that the hurricane is slightly lumpy (possibly the creatine) but it doesnt break up even in a shaker, ends up looking like soggy rice crispy's. This isnt in all shakes, probably only about 3 or 4 per 2.5kg sack, so dont let it put you off

    Having used this product for a month now i can say that although my work outs have not been up to scratch i have felt the difference and feel a touch stronger during the exercises. I went for the smooth chocolate and thought that the taste was fairly reasonable when mixed with semi-skimmed milk. i would say 4 out of 5 is a fair judgement!

    Best product I have used so far. I had first the chocolate and mint flavor which was for me not a nice taste at all. But now I have vanilla and that tastes absolutely delicious. Great results and gives you fantastic energy. I would recommend to take 1 70g spoon when you wake up and 1 70g spoon when you go to sleep. This supports recovery superb. Take a whey protein for after training is really good.

    I chose the choc nut flavour and it was the worst mistake ever, it has made me nearly sick 3 times it is the most disgusting tasting thing i have ever experienced, but am going to try one more flavour as i trust MP products after that it will be **COMPETITOR** - please remove choc nut flavour from sale it should be made illegal to charge for that

    i have the choc mint and has to be said is by far the best tasting out of all others i have tried. although the flavour is a little too sweet and also a bit bitter, its still bearable if you have something alongside it instead of just the shake on its own. 9/10

    First time I've tried a flavoured shake as I've previously always stuck to the hardcore unflavoured versions. I have to say the strawberry and cream tastes just like a milkshake. Brilliant taste and a pleasure to drink!

    Used the regular hurricane about a year ago but this stuff is much better! Choc Mint is really good and not very sickly would like to know what other flavours are not sickly so I can have some variety. Works very well if you want lean gains. Can't believe that I'm making gains but without putting on much fat! Would recommend this to anyone using Cyclone, I used Cyclone it made me sick and cost me 3 times the amount of Hurricane :-) Bloody good product!

    ordered the Choc Nut and its been a massive let down, ive been a MP customer for years and tried many different shakes, however this is so incredibly sweet in this flavour its undrinkable, its slightly better with milk, but with water its horrid, my advice is try the other flavours

    Strawberry cream is pretty nasty, really sweet especially with water. Doesn't mix as well as other products i've used. Best part is the price, the equivalent MM product of near equivalent weight is £85!

    An excellent all-in-one, it delivers on the promises made by MP, and for a fraction of what you'd pay for Cyclone. I got the chocolate smooth flavour, and to me it tastes like Nestle chocolate, only a little sweeter. So not bad at all. I have it with water generally but with skimmed milk it's more palatable. If you have a shaker that uses the plastic grid in the top to mix it, then you do get some caught around that grid so it can be gritty, but just adding more water/milk solves this I find. tl;dr version: I recommend Hurricane XS

    Had already bought the vanilla version but decided to get something else for change. I went for raspberry flavour and it is absolutely faaantastic! I couldn't believe it but it actually tastes like a raspberry milkshake that you would buy from a shop. Personally, I wouldn't go for the vanilla version again but if you are going to try it (I would recommend to do so) then definitely get the raspberry flavour. I used Maximuscle Cyclone for a while and I am seeing similar results with the Hurricane XS. Plus, it tastes about 1,000,000 times better than the Cyclone. Thank you myprotein!

    I'm using the Choc Nut flavour Hurricane XS at the moment. Really unpleasant flavour, bitter. Also, it mixes into a very thin drink, when using the recommended dosages - not like any of the Pure Proteins here. Don't think I can finish the batch...

    Ordered the Strawberry cream flavour after a friend brought me a choc mint pouch a few weeks back and it smells and tastes great!!! Works out about 75p a serving alot cheaper then mm with pretty much the same ingredients and in my opinion tastes alot better aswell!!! Training harder then ever looking better then ever...overall a brilliant product!!

    Hurricane xs is a fantastic product!! I am a guy that struggles to gain weight and size but with hurricane xs i achieve both, Fast!. I usually order chocolate smooth which is very good but i fancied a change on my last order and got one bag of chocolate nut and one bag of chocolate mint. Both flavours taste great! the chocolate mint tastes like an after eight mint and the chocolate nut tastes like a ferrero rocher. The only critisism i have about them both is that they are too sweet. Overall, by far the best All in one shake i have ever tried!!!!

  • Review:
    Just started on this today and it's my first all in one as i've always mixed products seperately, the mint choc tastes amazing - really amazing but also strong - like after eights. I can't comment on how effective it is yet but it'll be interesting to see how it compares against mixing protein isolate, creatine monohydrate and HMB seperately. I'll do another review in a months time.

  • Review:
    First of all, this stuff has been great, I managed to increase my bench by 15kg over 6 weeks and add 6lb to my bodyweight, so obviously excellent stuff, along with incredible pumps and short recovery times (reduced even from CNP's ProRecover!) it also lasts ages! I would highly recommend it. I would, however, strongly cation against the raspberry flavour, my friend and I both found it to be FAR too sweet, now I'm not one to gripe about the flavour but I really disliked it. If it's the only one left in stock and you can grin and bear it, then raspberry is fine, otherwise go for another flavour.5 stars for what matters though, the effectiveness!

  • Review:
    Been using it for two months and found it very effective, in fact the most effective protein of all i used. Gave me significant lean muscle mass growth and improved a lot on my strenght, also the dextrose in it supplies my muscle through my training with energy as i take one shake 30 min before my training. The bad point in taste is i found that it has a lot of sugar in choc mint flavours, so going to try other flavour to see if that is any better.

    ordered this as I needed something to help me maintain lean mass and weight at the gym. I ordered the choc nut which when mixed using a hand blender mixes fab, if using just a shaker its doesn't disolve overly well. The taste was ok but after a a few weeks on it I had to start forcing myself to take it. I have now started to add strawberry milkshake in with it which has made all the difference to the taste. To me the most important thing with these products is the effect it has on me, I have noticed a diffence in my performance in the gym and an improvement in my upper half. weather this is actual improvement or in my mind it doesn't matter as I feel better for it and that is what I buy the product for. will be ordering more but will try the choc mint next!
